THE DAY, JULY 10, 2014, STARTED OUT WITH MY WIFE, GRANDDAUGHTER AND ME GOING TO THE GROCERY STORE IN MY 2008 JEEP LIBERTY. WE WERE BACK BY NOON, HAD SOME LUNCH AND ABOUT 1:30PM PUT GRANDDAUGHTER DOWN FOR A NAP. ABOUT 2:00PM WIFE NEEDED TO GO INTO TOWN FOR AN ERRAND. SHE BACKED THE JEEP OUT OF OUR DRIVEWAY AND CONTINUED DOWN THE ROAD GOING ABOUT 15 MPH. THE FRONT PASSENGER TIRE BLOWS (4 TIRES ON THE VEHICLE BOUGHT APPROX. 14 MONTHS PRIOR TO THE INCIDENT - GOODYEAR P225/75R16 WRANGLER ST 104S) AND THE SIDE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. VEHICLE DID NOT HIT ANYTHING NOR WAS IT HIT BY ANYTHING. WIFE DID SUSTAIN A SLIGHT RED BRUISE ON HER LEFT CHEEK. GOOD THING IT DID NOT HAPPEN WITH ALL OF US IN THE VEHICLE OR GOING 65 MPH ON THE HIGHWAY. I CALLED CHRYSLER CUSTOMER SERVICE. CHRYSLER GROUP LLC CONDUCTED AN INVESTIGATION INTO THE INCIDENT AND INSPECTED THE JEEP. THE INSPECTION FOUND NO INDICATION OF A MANUFACTURING DEFECT THAT CAUSED OR CONTRIBUTED TO THE INCIDENT. HARD TO BELIEVE THAT A FRONT TIRE BLOWS AND SIDE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED AT 15 MPH. JEEP IS SUPPOSED TO BE A RUGGED OFF-ROAD VEHICLE. *TR

GOT OUT MY TRUCK AT WALMART AND THE DOORS AUTOMATIC LOCKED WHEN I CLOSED THE DRIVER DOOR THE LIGHTS STARTED FLASHING AND THE LOCKS STARTED LOCKING AND UN LOCKING. THAT WAS ON JUNE 3,2014. THE REALLY BAD ONE HAPPEN ON JUNE16,2014 WHEN I HAD MY DAUGHTER AND GRANDBABY WITH ME I GOT OUT THE CAR AND IT LOCKED AS USUAL AND THE LIGHTS STARTED FLASHING AND I COULD NOT GET MY DAUGHTER OR GRANDBABY OUT IT WAS VERY HOT OUTSIDE AND I THOUGHT I WAS GOING TO HAVE TO BREAK THE WINDOW. I AM VERY AFRAID TO DRIVE MY JEEP. I FEEL TRAPPED IN IT AND I FEEL LIKE SOMETHING IS GOING TO HAPPEN IF MY KIDS OR GRANDBABY IS IN THERE AND IT WANT LET ME IN. I WAKE UP SOME MORNINGS AND THE BATTERY IS DEAD AND WANT CRANK LEAVING MY KIDS LATE FOR SCHOOL. PLEASE HELP. *TR

FOR THE PAST THREE MONTHS THE AIR BAG LIGHT IN MY CAR HAS BEEN COMING ON AND OFF. SOMETIMES IT WILL STAY ON FOR A COUPLE DAYS, OTHER TIMES IT WILL ONLY STAY ON FOR A COUPLE MINUTES. MY MOTHER ALSO HAS A JEEP LIBERTY AND HERS IS DOING THE SAME THING. I DO NOT KNOW WHAT TRIGGERS IT TO COME ON BUT TYPICALLY IT COMES ON WHEN I AM THE ONLY PERSON IN THE CAR. I HAVE HAD MY CAR FOR LESS THEN 6 MONTHS SO I TOOK IT IN LAST WEEK TO HAVE IT LOOKED AT BECAUSE I HAVE HEARD OF OTHER JEEP LIBERTYS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. THE CAR DEALERSHIP FROM WHICH I BOUGHT MY CAR FROM TOLD ME THAT IT WOULD COST ME $459 FOR A NEW OCCUPANT RESTRAINT CONTROLLER (EVEN THOUGH I HAVE HAD MY CAR FOR LESS THEN 6 MONTHS AND IT IS STILL UNDER WARRANTY). I PERSONALLY BELIEVE THAT THIS SHOULD BE LOOKED INTO AND IT SHOULD BE MADE A RECALL FOR JEEPS BECAUSE I HAVE HEARD THIS COMPLAINT FROM MULTIPLE PEOPLE REGARDING THEIR JEEP LIBERTYS. *TR
