Why is the window regulators not on some kind of lemon law list or recall list?
What is your question?
Driver, front passenger, two back passenger windows regulators keep breaking. I bought this jeep in 2011. I have already had to replace every regulator and am on a second round of them breaking and being replaced.
I cannot afford this. $160 plus for the regulator and then labor for someone to replace it for me. I do not appreciate being up town, alone, and my window drops and cannot be put up. I do not even use the back windows. They just drop as the regulator breaks for no reason at all!!
This is dangerous!! Anyone can jump into my vehicle, kidnap me and drive off with me in my own vehicle! Anyone can hide inside of my vehicle. Anyone can steal my vehicle with great ease!
This is expensive as it appears this will take place, for every single window, every two years or less. I just replaced one, less than six months ago, and it has already broken - I have not rolled the window down even one time - it just broke and the window drops. It has torn a strip out of my window tint - which I will not even bother to replace the window tint because this is going to be going on regularly.
After I made the purchase on the vehicle, drove it off the lot, got home, the window fell. I went back to where I purchased it and the dealers said - oh yeah, this is a common issue with the Jeep Liberty. What an ass!! I would not have purchased this vehicle if I had known this. I purchased the vehicle in 2011, with 76k miles. I now have 91k miles on it, 2015.
RepairPal Certified shops can diagnose and repair your 2004 Jeep Liberty. They provide transparent pricing with a minimum 12-month or 12,000-mile warranty on repairs and services.
I have found this a common problem all over the internet. The dealer, where I bought the jeep, knows this is a common problem. I have had it fixed at three different shops, who all know and stated that this is a common problem for the Jeep Liberty.
The plastic is the issue. It just snaps, breaks, when the window has not even ever been rolled down. It is a piece of junk. The part has been purchased from the dealership, twice and from Napa and Advanced Auto a few times. The issue is so common that there are replacement parts, metal, to fix the issue, of which I found today.
My neighbor and husband might be able to make the parts themselves and my neighbor can install the replacement and luckily for me because the guy who has the parts wants $150 labor installation per window plus the $50 per window part.
Common problem with 2002-2007 Jeep Liberty - and other Jeeps included.
Do your research :o)
And my eleven year old vehicle had 76k miles on it, at time of purchase, in 2011. 91k today, in 2015. I only put 4000 miles or less, per year, on a vehicle. Vehicles last me for a very long time. I am not accustomed to having to pour money into crappy windows, never had this problem, before, in my life, and I do not appreciate having it now, nor do the many other people, who have reported this COMMON issue and the expense to this COMMON issue.
Below is just one link, among many, with mention of this COMMON problem :o)

Car Window Repair Brandon Jeep Liberty 2002-2007.
The 2002-2007 Jeep Liberty has a problem with the Power Windows. The original bracket was designed to screw on to the metal cable and would strip out. The replacement brackets (now made in the USA) are designed as part OF the cable and are much smoother and better made. The new brackets will not break again.
