2003 Jeep Liberty Sport 4WD Review
ProsIts a Jeep! Consgood gas mileage
25
20,000 Miles And Only $100 For Repairs. Has Total 98,000 Miles — GAS MILEAGE IS TERRIBLE! Build quality is good, wish the interior plastics weren't as hard. There is enough power to get you moving, however since it is primarily rear wheel drive the back end is a bit more lively than expected on wet roads. 4WD is great in the snow, however eats more gas. Primary Use: Commuting to work

The Jeep Liberty Is About As Good As It Gets — Bought new in 2002, but a 2003 Liberty Sport 4x4. This is by far, the best vehicle I've ever owned. It's also the only one I've ever been in a wreck with. I've had no major issues mechanically with this vehicle. I've done all my own oil and filter changes, and it's a breeze to change the oil and filter. You don't even have to jack it up! Good acceleration, 30,000 miles between tune-ups, and virtually a maintenance free vehicle. Only attention I give it is 3 month oil and filter changes and a 30,000 mile service for the transmission....also a tune-up and a coolant flush every 3 years. Good interior, but the driver's seat seems at a very weird angle to me....perhaps this makes the Jeep a little tiring on long drives. Very strongly built. I slid on ice last winter and slammed rear end first into a concrete center divider with damage to the rear door and spare tire assembly. It was probably my fault as I didn't have it in 4wd at the time. Speaking of 4WD....it's good when in 4WD Hi. I don't have a clue what the 4WD LO is for, and I've never used it. We have snow for 6 months of the year around here, so this Jeep is a perfect vehicle for that. Concerning squeaks and rattles...the dashboard has an annoying rattle behind the speedometer, but I've learned to live with it. Excellent AM/FM/CD stereo..with beautiful sound. The only three minor complaints I would have with the Jeep Liberty is brake rotor noise from the rear when the rotors are wet and you're backing up, slight front end vibration at higher speeds, which seems endemic no matter what tires you put on, or how perfectly they're balanced, and poor gas mileage. There is a trick to increasing your gas mileage....don't go over 60mph on the freeway, because then it sucks gas like a pig. It is a fun, comfortable, vehicle to drive. It looks good, and it's reliable as hell. Could one ask for much more???? Primary Use: Commuting to work | ||

Not Liberated — I purchased a second one because I thought this one was a lemon. (although I now think they were poorly build). Seals leaked, brake issues, recall after recall (it seemed). Lemon, lemon, lemon, lime. Lemon, Lemon, Lemon, Lime (I think that took care of the word requirements) Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.) | ||

Suv's Are The Only Way To Drive In Canada. — The braking shakes a little but of course I always step on it too hard. It has had repairs, U-joit for example but nothing totally major. There is some squeaks but the mechanics can't find them so I don't bother trying to fix it. Primary Use: Commuting to work | ||

I Love My Jeep — Great SUV.. The turning radius is incredible. Often able to get in and out of tight spots that others can't. The Jeep is also able to take the punishment of back country with little or no modification. It is hard on fuel however. Primary Use: Commuting to work | ||

A Small Terror In A Big-bear World — This has to be one of the BEST combinations of form and function. From the instant you mash the accelerator to floor board, the torque plants you firmly in the seat, and the truck launches into action! With mine having the Flowmaster exhaust, the roar of the beefy 6 cyl., gives the impression of a finely tuned small block! Now that the wheels and tires are a bit fatter, the handling has improved too! The feeling of it being top-heavy is all but gone. My ONLY complaint about this Jeep...the gas mileage. C'mon...18 MPG on the highway?!?! I would have thought it could do better than that! Oh well, it just leaves room for more performance modifications, since the fuel-saving aspect of the vehicle is obviously way out the window! Any ideas of what I should do to it next? | ||
