Excellent Vehicle

Best Vehicle I ever owned. I will purchase another jeep when the time comes. The vehicle has performed beyond my expectations. It drives especially good in all types of weather. Most people that know, who own a jeep, love them as well.

2005 Jeep Liberty

Love my Jeep Liberty. My 6’ kayak fits fine inside on passenger side. Other cars have opposite split of back seats, but mine allows a person to sit behind me when kayak is in Jeep. 4-wheel drive sure helps in snow.

Liberty 2005

This is the first time we had to replace these items. We bought the Jeep brand new in 2005 have less then 62000 miles on it. We had our tires replaced but that was all. I try to keep up the maintenance on it, that way it will last longer. The only problem we have is in the winter with our heavy coats we could use more room. I really enjoy driving it.

My first Jeep

I'd always wanted a Jeep ever since my uncle had a gas station in our hometown. It was a fifties Willys barebones utility type. Stick shift. Clutch. Manual steering and brakes. It was a real jeep. A "General Purpose" (GP), jeep as it was known. So life happens and i ended buying my in-laws 2005 liberty renegade. Quad lamps on top with luggage rails that hold my canoe snug tight. Maybe a surf ? board for next summer. Anyway i love my Jeep. I always keep tow cables and tools as well as spare gas cans and oil and coolant and windshield wash. It's a survival machine i can load for camping fishing hunting and four wheel terrains. Yeah. Love my Jeep.

Best Car Ever!

I have had Cadillacs, Lincolns, Buicks, Chevys and Fords. None is as great as my "Scooter." At 17 years and 84,000+ miles, she looks and runs as well as she did in 2005. Even the paint job looks brand new. Some makes, models, and years get everything right, and this is just such a car. Just the other day someone asked if I had just bought a new car. Scooter doesn't have the bells and whistles of the 2022's, but I wouldn't trade her for any of them!

'05 Renegade Loaded

Bought my Jeep in late 2019. Had 150K on it. I'd never owned a 4WD. Truck runs great. Not very good with MPG's, but I really like its smooth ride, sitting up off the road, and has great visibility. I've used Part time 4-wheel in some bad snow, ice conditions, uphills and down ... Back roads ... Fishing and canoeing ... It's my Survival Machine. I'd like to buy new but with this Jeep, I'll run it long as I can ... No car payments.

I love Old Betsy...

Old Betsy has had her moments. I bought her used 11 years ago...have had some mechanical work done...but overall my Jeep Liberty rides nicely. Great in winter driving. Not too great on gas mileage....

Front end work that was needed.

We had some issues with the front end and when driving it felt a little lose. When they finished working on it the first time I drove it I noticed it handled well. 0ver all this vehicle has been reliable.

LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!

"Scooter" is 16 years old in July. I never want to own any other car. In sixteen years, I have replaced one battery, 2 set of tires, on AC belt and one ignition thingy. The paint job still looks factory fresh." It's a Jeep thing!"

LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!

My Jeep is a 2005...and I LOVE it. Never had a problem with it. Paint job looks brand new. My dad always said if you take care of the fluids, a car will run forever. Well, I am beginning my 16th year, 79,000 miles, and I don't want to ever by another car. "It's a JEEP thing" !

Reliable, uncomplicated and capable.

In 15 years of service the car has a very reliable service record. With selectable 4WD it's good for our seasonal weather. Has knobs and levers, not a "touch screen" so I know they will function when needed.

Crap don't buy

Love this vehicle!

I love my Jeep! I never thought I would want a Jeep but now that I have one, I just love it! It’s just the right size for me. It sits up off the road which I like. I love the four wheel drive especially during these winter storms and it just zooms around everywhere I want to go. I love it!

2005 Jeep Liberty

I bought my jeep new and I’ve had it now for 15 years . It’s been a great vehicle and I haven’t had any major problems. I’ve had to replace 3 automatic window roller motors and I think that’s excessive but overall it’s been a good vehicle .

VERY RELIABLE

IT RUNS VERY WELL CONSIDERING THE MILEAGE AND ALSO VERY DEPENDABLE COMPARED TO A PREVIOUS 2005 GMC ENVOY I OWNED WHICH HAD ABOUT THE SAME MILEAGE BUT SEVERAL EXPENSIVE PROBLEMS THAT CAME UP, LIKE POWER STEERING, A/C COMPRESSOR, ROCKER ARM

2005 Jeep.

Like a family member, cant imagine not having it. It's a work horse hauling yard soil and plants, and furniture as well as all my pool supplies. Yet it's a reliable family car when daughter and family are here from California.

Used mistake

I purchased this vehicle used with 140k. I had to spend 2700 just to get it road worthy. I am taking it back to the shop because it stalls and runs rough. It drives rough and the drivetrain is clunky. I will never buy another one.

The Liberty

I've had great luck with my Liberty. It's reliable, practical and fun to drive Not as much fun as the Mercedes SL560 I traded in, but the Liberty has given me no troubles, by assuring good routine maintenance on my part.

Love it

Great car. Easy to drive with plenty of power. I will buy another when I have to. Very easy to drive and park in tight places. Very good on gasoline easy to maintain. I would buy another and would recommend anyone looking for a car to buy this model of car.
