“I HAVE OWNED MY 2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE LAREDO FOR 10 YEARS. I PURCHASED THE CAR NEW FROM LIBERTY AUTO CITY IN LIBERTYVILLE, IL. AT 80,000 MILES, I WAS LEAVING FOR SCHOOL WHEN I NOTICED MY DRIVER SIDE WINDOW HAD FALLEN INTO THE DOOR. WHEN I TRIED TO USE THE SWITCH TO RAISE THE WINDOW, IT DID NOT WORK. I TOOK THIS CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP, THEY KNEW RIGHT AWAY THAT I HAD A PROBLEM WITH THE WINDOW REGULATOR, AND THEY FIXED IT TO THE TUNE OF $400. THE DEALERSHIP KNEW WHAT IT WAS BECAUSE THEY HAVE FIXED SO MANY, AND THE NOVICE INTERNET SURFER WOULD BE ABLE TO SEARCH OUT THIS PROBLEM AND FIND A MYRIAD OF COMPLAINTS FROM GRAND CHEROKEE AND LIBERTY OWNERS ALIKE. I UNDERSTAND A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT WAS FILED IN CALIFORNIA BY JEEP LIBERTY DRIVERS, AND JEEP HAS SINCE EXTENDED THE WARRANTY ON LIBERTY WINDOWS. JEEP REIMBURSED ME $300 OF THE $400 DOLLARS FOR THIS FIRST INCIDENT. NOW, LAST SUNDAY, I WAS LEAVING MY HOME TO WORK THE NIGHT SHIFT AT THE HOSPITAL, AND I NOTICED THE PASSENGER WINDOW WAS ROLLED ALL THE WAY DOWN - SURE ENOUGH, THE SAME THING HAPPENED TO THE OTHER WINDOW. I DROVE TO WORK IN A SNOW STORM WITH THE PASSENGER WINDOW ROLLED DOWN. NOW JEEP WILL NOT REIMBURSE…”
