2008 Jeep Liberty overheating

Asked by GuruTW45Y Jun 17, 2018 at 02:10 PM about the 2008 Jeep Liberty Limited

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I have a 2008 Jeep Liberty, the AC was not working
so we replaced the compressor. Then the AC
worked but the car started overheating, so we  
changed the water pump, the thermostat, and the
radiator cap with the special valve. Car is still
overheating everything is flowing through the
system the fans are working properly but it still
overheats any ideas!??

I'm not a mechanic, but I recently had repairs to my 2002 Jeep Liberty Sport for an overheating problem similar to that of several other people who asked the question five years ago (below). Are you SURE your COOLING FAN MOTOR is operating properly? It might need replaced, along with related parts (e.g., cooling fan motor relay, thermostat, thermostat housing threads). See my repair invoice (photo uploaded below) and all the parts highlighted in the red circles -- one or more of these may be contributing to your problem. Get out your money! Good luck!
