I purchased my 2003 Jeep Liberty about a year and a half ago with roughly 80,000 miles on it. I live in New England, so I was excited to have a vehicle with 4 Wheel Drive that could hold its own during the rough winters. When I initially bought the vehicle I was thrilled. It was sharp looking, had all the bells and whistles (for a 2003 anyway), and seemed fairly reliable. To this day, I still like the way it looks and performs in snow. And while some would dislike it from the context that its a "chick car", that didn't very well bother me. Unfortunately, the love affair with this vehicle did not last very long. Only a month after I purchased it, the A/C compressor went, followed by the brakes locking up continually, followed by a series of recalls that rendered it a hazard on the road. I do not plan on holding on to this vehicle much longer. I'm going to fix it up as much as possible and cut my losses. My recommendation for anyone looking to purchase this vehicle, is to look elsewhere.

I have a pre-owned 2008 Jeep Liberty. I'm a Wrangler girl through-and-through, but I've got "40" well in my rearview mirror now, so it's time to grow up (a little). So the Liberty was my first foray into the next step up. Still has the classic squared-off Jeep look, which is distinctive in a parking lot full of curvy lines.
