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.
2002 Jeep Liberty spontaneously engaged in full acceleration. Vehicle reached 100 mph with no accelerator pedal influence or ability of brakes to decelerate. Put vehicle in neutral, rpms reached 7000 (maximum on tachometer) and I waited til vehicle reached 20 mph at which point I measured that I could safely shut off power and coast to a stop. Source of problem: Accelerator spring mechanism got stuck under nearby cable in full-throttle position.
