Liberty

  • 49,000 miles
I have a 2002 Jeep Liberty. There are two cylinders under the hood that are supposed to keep the hood open after it is raised. Mine no longer do that. This could present a serious problem as the hood could slam down unto anyone that might be looking under the hood. I luckily avoided getting injured this morning as I was looking under the hood, turned around for a second, and the hood slammed shut, narrowly missing me. There is a similar situation with the back window. Although not as serious, the cylinders on the window are failing as well.
