All in all, the 2012 Liberty actually excels off-road, but since 99% of drivers never take this thing off pavement, that becomes somewhat of a moot point. The Liberty suffers from the worst fuel economy in its class (16/22 MPG) and offers an uncomfortable ride with suspect braking ability.

I've been driving my Jeep around to work and home everyday and I notice the passenger air bag light flashes where it says it's off. Today 2/17/2013 I drove 100 miles from a small trip and the light was on the entire time I was driving. I haven't had any accidents.
The contact owns a 2012 Jeep Liberty. The contact stated that when driving at various speeds she noticed that the air bag warning light had illuminated for the front passenger seat. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic and they advised her that they were unable to diagnose the failure and also informed her that there was a weight threshold for the front seat. The manufacturer was contacted and a representative was sent out to investigate the vehicle. After diagnosis they reported that they were unable to diagnose the vehicle either. The vehicle has not been repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 3,000. The current mileage was approximately 53,036.
