I purchased a Jeep Liberty with select 4WD. After having the vehilce for less than two weeks and the milage was less than 900 miles, I was driving on the expressway and the vehicle began making a lot of noise. I took it to the dealer. I was told that a bad bearing race in the rear end had messed up the bearings. The faulty part was installed by the manufacturor of the rear end.
