The 2007 Jeep Liberty has 3 recalls, the most serious being a fuel tank that can rupture and leak in a rear-end collision, creating a fire risk if an ignition source is present.
The other two recalls both involve the rear suspension lower control arms, which can fracture from corrosion buildup over time. When a control arm breaks, the rear axle loses its proper connection to the chassis, and the driver can experience a sudden and unpredictable loss of steering and directional control, raising the risk of a crash. Prior repair attempts did not fully resolve the issue, which is why this defect has been addressed across more than one campaign covering the 2007 model year.
