Pleased jeep owner of many years

This car and I have weathered many storms, it was barely hit on one side and insurance declared it as salvage and I was allowed to keep it and it was paid off by ins so that is one reason I keep holding on to her, she is a fighter

Dependable transportation

I’ve had this car since it had about 30,000 miles on it. It now has almost 215,000, and I can honestly say it has been what are the cheapest to maintain of any vehicle I have owned. I love my little Jeep

Can You Fall in Love with a Vehicle?

When I purchased my 4x4 Jeep I started exploring the Mojave Desert of California. If the Jeep could talk it would relate driving in Death Valley canyons, backroads of Nevada, Eastern Sierras up to 10,000 feet. Yeah, that’s my Jeep!

Life With A 2002 Jeep Liberty Ltd

Please keep in mind that: 1.) We're talking about a vehicle at age 19... 2.) The first 3 years/40,000 miles were "corporate", but well maintained. We are currently at 140k . 3.) The majority of driving reflected small (12-15 miles) R/T commutes and city driving. No, surprise, but fuel economy... not so much. Over the years, we've probably averaged ~15MPG, regular. Power and traction have never been an issue. Handling - IT'S A TRUCK... drive accordingly. Ride comfort...see above, but not uncomfortable. Everything, with scheduled maintenance care, has worked well. At this point, could use some front suspension work. Fit and finish have held up well. One recall for tie rods. Overall, with 100k miles of personal experience, minimal complaints.

Love Jeeps

I've owned 4 Jeeps. # 1 got stolen , # 2 & 3 was bought used & traded in or sold. # 4, I have now, an 02 Liberty bought new in Pasadena, Ca. It has been very reliable & have never had a problem with it. Since it is getting old, it will probably start to " nickel and dime me" of course. Nothing lasts forever. I'm considering on trading it in for a new one but I am finding out that it might be cheaper to keep er.

Solid car but has needed a lot of work over the years

Comfortable ride with decent off road performance. I have had extensive work done over the year on my 02 Renegade, and it is essentially a new car at this point. I passed the point of no return in repairs that I intend on keeping it for years to come. Engine power is decent but lower mpg is a major downside.

Hey, It's a Real Jeep!

Doesn't look as tough as a Wrangler but this Jeep can go just about anywhere a Wrangle can... with more comfort. Wish Chrysler had continued making them. With reasonable maintenance there is no reason not to get 300,000+ miles.

Not too bad a vehicle

Too many little things failing at 100,000 miles...window motors, fan blower, hydraulic support cylinders, brake light circuits, transmission faults, torque converter circuitry ...other than that.. pretty reliable and almost unstoppable in the snow.

Almost Perfect

Very dependable. Love the ride - smooth most of the time unless in the outback. The only reason I gave 4 instead of 5 stars is the problem I had with the power windows not working, having to be fixed repeatedly.

Best buy I've ever made

When we bought our Liberty we spent a lot of time on the Muleshoe, Az 4WD roads. We know she went through hell with us restoring two cabins in 10 years for the Nature Conservancy. Sadly the cabins had to be destroyed due to a squatter that vandalized them. We rescued many people stuck in floods, lost, or after they totaled their cars on those roads. We also hunted there. Very little mechanical problems.

Surpassed my expectations

I own a 2002 Jeep Liberty. I purchased it early 2005. It has served me well. Replaced the transmission in 2009 and brakes recently. Minimal other repairs. I am thankful. Good 8n town and on the highway. Definitely needs studded tires in the Alaska winters or it is like bitter in a hot skillet. I have no complaints.

2002 Jeep Liberty

This has been a great vehicle for the two of us for 17 years. It is too bad Jeep discontinued the model because down the road we might have purchased a new one. There were a number of recalls early on but the Jeep dealership handled them eventually.

jeep liberty

Love my little Liberty tho' I wish it used less oil. Do I really have to write two hundred characters when I have nothing else to say? I said all I have to say. The car is a 2002. What more is there to say about it? Ta da 200 and twenty some odd words

Love our Liberty Jeep

I loved our first Liberty Jeep for its comfort of driving. My Jeep made me feel secure on the road for it's capabilities during rain and snow like no other car I have owned. I purchased another Jeep because of the qualities in our Liberty.

My Jeep Liberty

My Jeep Liberty is the best car I have ever owned. Its 15 years old and still runs great. I have had only two major two problems and one wasn't a failure on the part of the car, we hit a dear.
