Ok, here is what I did. I installed the latch from the salvage yard and still the same problem persisted. I took the original latch and drilled the opening out. this gave more adjustability. this worked and the glass sits well and latches better than it did previously.
I went to a u pull it yard yesterday to purchase a latch. what I noticed on several of the Libertys is that the owners took the latch off of the window and placed several washers to push the window latch towards the locking mechanism on the tail gate. I have not installed the latch yet
I have done that already. What is odd is that the remote and the door latch will release the rear window latch. I purchased a used one from a junk yard today and will try that once my son returns with the jeep.
I appreciate all of the suggestions, but none of them helped. I checked the battery and it was not fully charged. It is now and it still does not shut. the switch in the handle is working correctly and I have adjusted the latch mechanism as far towards the window and still not latching. I...
I jumped the battery. I tried adjusting the catch and that did not help. I tried pulling the window shut from the inside and still the catch would not "click" shut. I am at a loss.
I really cannot explain it. the latch will work with the remote, when you pull on the door handle and when I push the latch shut with my finger and unlocks with the previous two methods, but will not latch with the window pushing it closed.
I have a 2005 Jeep Liberty Limited. the battery died and I open the hatch to get the jumper cables out of the rear. the hatch and glass opened normally, but now the glass will not latch. I cannot seem to find any help in the archives.
