    Towing a car with the Liberty

    I don't have much car towing experience but I do have a class A license with all endorsements including doubles, triples, and hazmat tankers. Which doesn't mean squat without experience, but I do know a bit about going down the road trying to control 85,000 pounds of triaxle dump truck and...

    Rear brake noise, heat, smoke?

    btw, my Mom has a 2004 Renegade with limited slip rear, abs and the 5 sp. man. so it has the standard part time transfer case. I tried to talk her into the auto so she could get the tcase with the dummy full time 4wd position. She insisted on the manual in the event her brakes fail; after the...

    Thanks guys, my Mother is going to write a nice letter to Chrysler. You are right about the physical letter, it makes the most impact. Gotta go, Idol is coming on...(closet Idol fan) :-$

    Rear brake noise, heat, smoke?

    What does dcx mean, sorry if that's a dumb question? Just got off the phone with the owner of the dealership and it was a nice refreshing conversation. Not that I'm going to retract my previous post but at least I was treated like a human being. He said he would try to make things right with...

    In Channel vs. Stick on Ventvisor?

    Bring back the stick ons and get the in channel ones. IMO they look much better, like they came with the vehicle. However, I don't know how they hold up compared to the stick ons, I would thing better being out of the elements, I just think nothing should be "stuck on" a nice car that you care...

    Rear brake noise, heat, smoke?

    Talked to the general manager today who said he could give my Mother a "prorated" refund on the extended warranty which comes out to $1200 and change...no good. Or she could continue to bring it there. He told me I was not allowed on the property but my Mother was and I told him she certainly...

    Rear brake noise, heat, smoke?

    Wow! That is a good dealer, and your kind words will go a long way towards future business for them, other dealers just don't see how important that is. My dealer on the other hand has been less than pleasant, at least from a service stand point. I took my Mother to pick up the Jeep this...

    Rear brake noise, heat, smoke?

    But wait, it gets better! I called the police station to get the details and when the officer returned my call he said the service manager was just nervous about some of my statements but there was no action taken and I was not restricted from the property. The service manager thought he could...

    Rear brake noise, heat, smoke?

    Update: I am now on a "do not tresspass" order through the local police dept. That's one way to keep me out of there. They are bringing the Jeep and the parts up to my Mother's place of employment to avoid me altogether. That service manager is good at what he does, gotta give him that.

    Rear brake noise, heat, smoke?

    I have the same thoughts guys, on the other hand, they may want to make sure the work is done correctly and thouroughly so they don't have to deal with me again. When we go to pick it up this afternoon there should be people in the showroom buying cars on a nice sunny, warm day and they...

    Rear brake noise, heat, smoke?

    just got back from the dealer and it was no picnic. why does the consumer always have to fight for thier rights, well maybe not always, but most of the time. took over an hour to get them to see things my way. the service manager and one of the desk monkeys tried to gang up on me but the...

    Rear brake noise, heat, smoke?

    Thanks xray, how did they know the hubs had been damaged? How many times or how long did the overheating go on before you had the repairs done and did they charge you?

    Rear brake noise, heat, smoke?

    thanks Silver, I checked it out today, climbed a big hill to go back down to heat 'em up, man, these little things really move. Too bad my Mom probably never gets it above 2000 rpm; that 3.7 is a nice motor. Anyway, it's the caliper. Must be when the fluid gets hot it seizes up, then releases...

    Rear brake noise, heat, smoke?

    Hello all, my very nervous mother owns a 2004 Liberty Renegade and again is having a problem with the rear brakes getting hot and making noise. Now, I have received this info over the phone so it may not be 100% accurate but she claims there is a "clunking" sound coming from the rear and when...
