| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I own a 2006 jeep liberty crd (diesel) i have had problems with my jeep driving safe now since i bought this truck in jan 2006. my truck will shutter and almost stall on a daily basis in heavy traffic. and back in may 2006 my whole truck stopped dead on a local highway and went into a "limp" mode bringing me from a 45 mph speed to about 2-3 mph in a second. i have researched this and have found that the issue seems to be in a faulty torque converter in the transmission. i have meet several other people on the internet and in person that have all had the same issues. i have told my dealer about this with 0 outcome of a fix, there is a service bulletin for the transmission, but this has not helped either. i only hope that the issue does not happen while im on the interstate with my wife, with the sudden speed loss and lock up of my rear wheels i could only hope the cars behind me could stop in time, could a large semi though? there are many people with this issue and only doing a short internet search will prove this. just search for liberty crd lost torque converter and see what you find. i hope that jeep will have a better solution soon for this. *jb |
