THE VEHICLE ISN'T 10 YEARS OR OLDER AND AFTER RESEARCHING THESE ISSUES THERE ARE MANY MANY LIBERTY OWNERS WITH THESE SAME ISSUES. HOW CAN WE FIX OUR VEHICLES IF THIS PART ISN'T AVAILABLE TO US OR THE DEALERSHIP??? JEEP HAS KNOWN ABOUT THIS PROBLEM ALL ALONE BUT DOESN'T WANT TO HAVE TO DO A RECALL ON EVERY SINCE JEEP TO FIX THIS ISSUE BUT I WILL NOT BUY ANOTHER JEEP UNLESS THEY FIX THE ISSUE.. I LOVE THE VEHICLE OTHER THAN THE PROBLEMS I'M HAVING. THIS HAPPENS AT ANY GIVEN TIME WITHOUT NOTICE AND IS BECOMING WORST.

I BACKED MY JEEP LIBERTY SPORT INTO A TURN AROUND AREA, NEEDED TO PUT IT IN 4 WHEEL DRIVE. I PUT IT IN 4 WHEEL HI, THEN PULLED FORWARD. ONCE I WAS OUT OF THE TURN AROUND AREA I PUT IT BACK IN 2 WHEEL DRIVE. AS I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVING VERY SLUGGISH. I STOPPED TO MAKE SURE NOTHING WAS STUCK IN THE TIRES OR IN THE WHEEL WELLS. I CONTINUED DRIVING AND IT DID NOT WANT TO GO ABOVE 40 MILES AN HOUR. AFTER ABOUT 10 MINUTES I HEARD A RATHER LOUD POPPING SOUND, FOLLOWED BY WHAT SOUNDED LIKE A CHAIN BEING DRAGGED UNDER THE VEHICLE. I STOPPED TO LOOK UNDER IT BUT DIDN'T SEE ANYTHING, SO I SLOWLY MADE MY WAY TOWARDS HOME. AFTER ANOTHER FEW MINUTES IT WAS BASICALLY UNDRIVABLE, SO I STOPPED AT A FRIENDS HOUSE AND GOT A RIDE HOME. AFTER TAKING IT TO THE MECHANICS THEY TOLD ME THE FRONT DRIVE SHAFT HAD BROKEN IN HALF. I GOT THAT REPAIRED JUST TO BE TOLD THAT THE REAR PINION IS SHOT AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AS WELL.
