This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
Air conditioner/compressor was falling, causing the serpentine belt to burn, and also not allow the alternator to recharge the battery. Finally, the A/C unit completely seized. And the car was immobilized. The dealer had been almost exclusively been doing oil changes and 23 point inspections since buying the vehicle. They somehow conveniently missed this one which could have caused a fire. In any event, a vehicle less than 5 years old should not be a fire hazard nor lose it's ac to seizing!
Air conditioner on 2002 Jeep Liberty will run fine and then suddenly blow hot air. After a few minutes will begin blowing cool. Can do this several times in a single trip. Taken Jeep to dealership. They replaced "switches"...checked everything including compressor and freon...nothing shows to be a problem.
Had air condition recharged 5/04 because it started blowing warm air. Started blowing warm air again in 04/05. Took to dealership and after checking everything else, they replace the compressor.
While driving at any speed consumer heard a loud noise coming from the rear and vehicle vibrated. Vehicle was taken to the dealer for inspection, and mechanic determined that the rear coil springs needed to be replaced due to worn out parts. The brakes made noise when applied. The blower motor for the heat failed and the A/C was inoperative.
While traveling on highway vehicle shutdown without prior warning. Brake rotors squeak. Also, air conditioner blows out hot air. Dealership is aware of problem.
