#48 of 143 Re: grrrrr - both rear windows fell! [beachpatty] by zoeco Jul 10, 2008 (4:26 pm)
Replying to: beachpatty (Jul 10, 2008 6:27 am) Beachpatty, my window was covered, but I also have an extended bumper to bumper warranty from a private company. I just got back from the shop today, after having a 90K checkup done on the car and paying about $660--I know, they overcharged me for parts and labor, but now my vehicle is running a little hot when the ac is on. I took it back and they said they couldn't get it to heat up like it did when I drove it so they did nothing. They said that it might need a new radiator at $500! Not gonna happen. So, now I am looking for a better fair dealing shop to take my car to. I hate it because I haven't had any real issues with this vehicle since I bought it used back in 04. Anyway, I am dreading this window situation. It is a design flaw, and it is caused by the window regulator. My warranty is almost up and now I am contemplating buying another one just in case. I am a teacher, and I need my car and don't have lots of money to keep dropping for unnecessary repairs. Let me know how your window deal turns out. Good luck, and don't take any crap from anybody.
#49 of 143 You Should Be covered by emmab Jul 10, 2008 (8:56 pm)
My back rear window went down and wouldnt go up (never used the thing) and it was covered under warranty. My driver's side window went down and wouldnt go up and it was too. I also requested every other window be checked and fixed. Have not paid on dime for any of this. Yes, the regulator is the problem because after they fixed my driver side window the first time, it was making horrible horrible noises. I took it in and they insisted they couldnt find any problems. I got with them on the phone, and said yes, it is making noises go fix it. Lo and Behold they decided the regulator needed fixing. Hadnt they already done that? It's an ongoing problem which apparently happens a lot and so an extended warranty or trading in the vehicle is going to be the only option.

I love my Jeep Liberty CRD which I bought new in Sep 2006. I noticed coming home from work today that it sounded like the rear window driver side was slightly open so I tried to close it and heard a grating noise so I stopped pushing the button. Drove home. Got out and looked. Saw it was down about an inch. Tried to raise it. Same noise. Used my hands and pushed it up. Knew something was wrong. Got the husband. He pulled off the panel... We saw the orange regulator cord was not attached..... hmmm. Then discovered it was not screwed in to the motor on the other end. Broken plastic. Odometer reading 36150. Priceless. Thanks for all the posts on here. I will register complaints on every single one. For the record, I live in Colorado and no one even sits in the rear seat.....

Replying to: gilly57 (Jul 22, 2008 7:26 pm) I had the same problem last summer. My rear right side window suddenly wouldn't roll up, and then fell down into the door completely. I was on a vacation so I had to find a jeep dealership in Santa Fe, NM. Their computers were down so I had to go to a liquor store, ask for a cardboard box, and drive back to las vegas with a Corona box in my window. It started raining just after I got the cardboard taped into the window. I also learned from this site that it is a common problem with all Jeep window regulators. I am waiting for the others to break now, and my warranty is almost up! I wish there was something that we could do to prevent the same thing from happening. Good luck with getting yours fixed. I am refraining from rolling down my windows too often--now I am paranoid about them breaking.
#52 of 143 Easy do it yourself project. by jromley Jul 23, 2008 (10:28 am)
My wife bought a 2007 Liberty last year. The power window regulator has gone out one three of the four windows and now, 500 miles outside of the warranty it happened a second time to the drivers door. I called the dealer and they said they recognize that it is a problem and would be so gracious as to give me 10% off the repair bill of $270. I'm a do it yourselfer so I tried it and was amazed at how easy it was. I bought the regulator with the motor for $54 at the dealer and it took me about 30 minutes using a phillips screw driver and an 11mm socket. If you are at all mechanically inclined, or know someone who is-try fixing it yourself. Jeep won't recall it and they don't even want to talk about it when I call them. If you need instructions let me know and I'll try to walk you through it.

Replying to: zoeco (Jul 23, 2008 5:55 pm) This may sound dumb, but how do I know when my warranty is up? I have a 2006 at about 21000 miles. If it goes out of warranty in 2009, how do I find out what month? Yes, I am getting paranoid early.
#55 of 143 Squeaky Clean? by jeepboy08 Jul 28, 2008 (7:46 am)
No, just REALLY squeaky. Well, no my windows are clean, but that isn't the point.   My question is, "WHY?!" Every time it rains, and even when it doesn't rain, my windows squeak like nobody else business. It is not bad at all when the windows are dry, but when it is water is condensing on my windows, or when it rains, it is terrible. Is there any way to fix this problem?

Replying to: emmab (Jul 02, 2008 8:02 pm) There's a company called Steiger performance and they make a retro fit fix for this problem that cost around 50 bucks. Their online, look em up. Their solution is a fraction of the 400 bucks the dealer will rip you off for making you buy a new regulator.
