    Type 43

    Here's a quickie for you; the instrument panel sometimes shows "type 43" under the speedometer, next to the 4wd indicator. I can't find any error codes listed that look anything like that. What is it? Tom

    Deciding on Shocks

    Please allow me to jump into this thread. I have the same need: a smoother ride in my Liberty. We never go off-roading; we like the Jeep because it is towable behind our motorhome. Our springs do not seem to be sagging or leaning to the side, so I'm not sure what would indicate bad springs...

    keyless entry?

    Hi Rowlette, Sorry to hear that it's common. When it was in warranty, did the dealer have any help? Tom

    keyless entry?

    Well, the update for this afternoon is that we went out this morning, and the locks would not respond for the first three stops. Then, the back window popped right open, no problem. Next stop, no, does not work. We got the car in January and had to replace the battery with a new one within...

    seat belt latch

    I did a search and found some chatter, but still would like to know if anyone here has replaced a broken or defective seat belt for the driver. My latch sometimes clicks in OK, and sometimes requires me to jiggle it around to get it latched. Anyone have any thoughts or experience? The...

    changing spark plugs

    OK, this is the dumbest question I have ever asked................. I have worked on cars and engines since I was a kid, but I cannot find the plugs on my 3.7 V6. I would usually expect to find plug wires leading to plugs; nope; no wires. I'm not surprised at not finding a distributor...
