problem #1

May 222006

Liberty 4WD 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 56,576 miles
: the contact stated the vehicle was taken to the service dealer about a year ago because there was a slight vibration in the front end. The dealer inspected the vehicle and determined the tires needed to be rotated. The vibration continued and progressively became worse. Today, while driving 30 mph the contact heard a loud grinding sound followed by the vehicle's failure to move forward. The vehicle was towed to the dealer, but has not been inspected. Upon visual inspection, the contact noticed the lower ball joint was separated on the passenger side. Updated 7/3/2006 - the driver's side windshield wiper arm came loose twice. The wiper arm was realigned to factory specs and tightened to the correct torque setting. When the consumer used the turn signals while the headlights were on the headlights flickered. This is an intermittent occurrence. On another occasions the headlights remained on although the switch was turned off.
