 Driving my 2010 jeep liberty, stopped at a stop light and the car shuttered slightly and died. brand new 7 month old car, battery is fine, started right back up, just stalled out for no apparent reason. not on a incline, car was flat, automatic transmission, 68 degrees outside, not hot/overheating, no guage or warning lights came on before or after it died. no ac was in use. onlything being used was vent and the cigarette lighter to power my son's dvd player in the back seat. no sterao was on either. online research showed in jeep forums that other owners have had this similar problem with their jeeps stallign out for no apparent reason. jeep has given them no explanation or offer to fix. taking mine in on monday am to dealer to inquire as to awhat could have possible caused this. do not know if mine is part of the two recalls that jeep has out now for the liberty but will inquire about them as well, and ask if they could be the cause of mine stalling out for no reason.
EXTERIOR LIGHTING

 The back rear break light has been out, i replaced the bulb and also had the wiring checked, cannot figure out what is wrong, then i noticed on several other vehicles like mine either the left or right back brake lights were also out. the other vehicles appeared to be a 2010 jeep liberty.
FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
12/03/2012500001
 When filling up with gas and tank is fuel the nozzle stops and then gas bubbles out the fuel tank and down the side of the vehicle. i even try going slow but as soon and it gets full some fuel comes out. i took this to don miller dodge chrysler jeep ram service center in madison, wi and they informed that the rollover valve is not working and i would need the whole fuel tank replaced. i know from research online that this is a safety issue due to the fact that in the chance of a rollover this keeps fuels from spilling out of the gas tank that may cause a fire. i have also seen other recalls for other chrysler makes and models including other jeep models for this same issue and wonder if the jeep liberty's should be included as well. thank you *tr

 Was putting gas into jeep as i have always done, and this time after the pump shut off, gas came puking out of the tank down the side of the jeep. this is the first time this has happened to me, but looking on the internet this is a very common problem. you would think jeep would recall this!!!! *tr

POWER TRAIN

 Upon acceleration in the 40mph range, the transmission does not shift, and revs higher as if the car is in neutral even though the car is in drive, but the car speed does not increase. the transmission appears to slip, and does not engage the next gear. the engine races before the next gear engages. this problem has happened on and off since 3,000 miles. will contact dealer this week.
SERVICE BRAKES
09/17/2012126001
 Went for my normal oil change and rotate tires at the dealer. the service writer came out to inform me i need rear brakes as they have worn down and the rotor needs to be turned as it is out of round. i told them how could the rear be out in 12600 miles and the front brakes are good. if they are that worn why is there no warning to let me know as it is unsafe and i could have brake failure. they told me many chrysler vans as well as some 2009 and 2010 have a defect in the brakes that cause them to fail way sooner then they should. i paid almost $400 for the back brakes to be done and called chrysler corp and made a case. they agreed that it should not have failed at that low mileage and others have done also. i am going to get a total refund for what i spend after many calls to get it paid by them as i feel it is a unsafe condition that many other products they make have the same problems and why i should paid for a defect in their brake systems. i asked in the next 12000 miles if they wear out again will they repair the problem again and she said no. it is not fair or safe to have a jeep that will keep having the rear brakes wear out way before time and a unsafe condition too. i called a few barks rotor mfg. companies and they told me also they have a major defect in their brake systems as the weight of them as certain jeeps and vans is way too much for the brake system they have on the rears and fronts. i also see class action law suits against them on this brakes wear out problems on 2009 and 2010 vans that are in a dodge journey bulletin wb-d-11-07 and it is the same as my defect but they said it does not cover the jeep liberty but will refund my money once for the cost i paid. i am now afraid my brakes will fail and cause a accident. they don`t seem to care to go any further other then pay me back my money for the failed brakes in the rear one time only.... *tr

 Low psi indicator on spare was on so i lowered the spare tire to put air in it and i noticed the valve stem was broke off at the top. after looking on the internet i found this is a common problem with chrysler on their valve stems. it happens all the time on all wheels not just the spare. the cost to fix is around $100 a tire!!! in till chrysler fixes their cheap valve stem sensor system i will put in the old fashion rubber valve stems and just put up with the dash lights!!!! *tr
