DT*: THE CONTACT STATED THERE WERE NO PROBLEMS WITH THE VEHICLE. THERE WAS A NHTSA RECALL # 06V288000 ON THE VEHICLE REGARDING THE FRONT LOWER BALL JOINTS. THE PARTS NEEDED TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE WERE NOT AVAILABLE AT THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP. THE MANUFACTURER CONFIRMED THE PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE.

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
LEARNED THRU INTERNET SEARCH THAT THERE ARE 2 RECALLS ON MY 2002 JEEP LIBERTY: (1) UNWARRANTED AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT AND (2) POSSIBLE GAS TANK EXPLOSION IF REAR-ENDED. I CALLED THE JEEP CUSTOMER SERVICE LINE AND TALKED TO A MATT, WHO CONFIRMED BOTH RECALL ITEMS. HE SAID I WOULD RECEIVE A LETTER FROM JEEP TELLING ME HOW TO PROCEED, BUT THAT AT THIS TIME THE PARTS NEEDED TO FIX BOTH RECALL PROBLEMS WERE BACK-ORDERED. SO I AM DRIVING A CAR IN WHICH THE AIR BAGS MIGHT EXPLODE AT ANY TIME (MY AIRBAG LIGHT COMES ON AND OFF AT WILL) AND IF I AM REAR-ENDED THERE IS A GOOD LIKELIHOOD THAT MY GAS TANK WILL EXPLODE. WHAT AM I TO DO IF ONE OF THESE OCCURS WHILE I'M WAITING FOR THE JEEP NOTIFICATION AND/OR REPLACEMENTS PART TO BE IN STOCK? I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE MY CAR NOW, BUT HAVE NO OTHER OPTIONS AVAILABLE. WHAT DO I DO? *TR
