"Would recommend this Jeep. Bought a 2012 Liberty Sport. Tinted the windows. All I need. Good jeep! I owned a 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited for 4 yrs. Third owner w/ 225k miles. Everything still worked but it was time for a new Jeep. The Liberty fits the bill. White with black accents and limo tint on the windows. I love it! Who cares about the gas, its a Jeep!"

"This is my first Jeep. I am a former Volvo and Mercedes owner. I feel that the Liberty is well made and a great everyday driver. I have read reviews that people complain about the interior quality, I feel for a Jeep it's above par. The only thing I would have liked to see is better gas milage."

"Pros: Comfortable, More room than even needed, Nice Looking, Amazing off Road, Powerful, Real 4x4 SUV, great in weather Cons: HORRIBLE GAS MILEAGE I Love everything about this truck exept for one thing, the gas mileage. I do not run my vehicle rough at all. All I get in this truck is 6-8MPG. This is so bad that I cannot even drive it. This is such a shame because I love this truck so much and cannot even enjoy it. Jeep needs to look into this because it is no where near as advertised. I am going to get a Jeep dealer to look at it because there is no reason this is all I get. If they cant fix it, I will have to get rid of it and I dont want to. This is my only complaint with this vehicle."

"I can't belive they beat this vehicle up like they do. It is a Jeep 4X4 and that is what I wanted. I just puchased it and drove from Kentucky to Florida the next day. This thing was comfortable the whole 10 hour trip. I love the way it drives and it is very quiet. I had looked at a lot of SUV's and purchased the Liberty with the Latitude Package. You cannot find anything out there with all the options for the money. It has heated leather seats, bluetooth, heated mirrors, Sat. Radio, Garage door opener and 4Wheel drive with down hill assist and a lot more for around 24K. Just try to beat that Expert's. If you are looking for a new 4X4 and don't want to spend 40 thousand, don't listen to the Expert reviews and go drive one"

"We purchased a new 2012 Liberty Latitude and it is the best vehicle we have owned. It does everything we need it to do. The V6 engine is "old style" but very strong and made much the same as the 4.7 V8. The gas mileage is not the best, but this is a heavy SUV and built strong. We had snow and it handles it very well. We are very pleased with our purchase. Our dog loves the back area when the seats are folded. I am sorry they will no longer be made, but that should improve the resale value."

"I purchased a new 2012 Jeep Liberty Jet Edition in white with every option avaliable and I absolutly LOVE it! In my work as an RN I am on-call for work and have to be able to get there no matter what the weather. The Liberty goes through anything!! The interior is comfortable and I love the upright feeling and clear unobstructed view out all of the windows. Great Infinity sound system and looks. If there is a downside it's the gas mileage which is not great, but it's a truck based SVU so it is what it is....I average about 19. Got a Great deal...am very happy with my purchase. Jeep is making a BIG MISTAKE by discontinuing the Liberty. I read all the reviews out there which "hate" this car, but I think it's one of the best vehicles I have ever owned....Way to go JEEP!!"

"I looked at all the SUV's under 30K in her class and I settled on a beautiful 2012 Jet Edition. I never thought I'd ever own an america car. In fact; I spent a considerable amount of time looking for an excuse not to buy this truck and found none. With the exception of the Xterra, which felt and looked cheap, this was the only other truck in the class that I felt comfortable taking off-road or towing a boat. Admittedly, the mileage is not great (avg 23mpg combined) and the ride is more truck than car- not as bad as the pro reviews suggest -but its a SUV, not a Crossover- aka station wagon with a lift kit. If your looking for a true 4x4 SUV that's well built and will claw its way over anything the under carriage can clear then you need a Liberty"

"I am just coming off a 3 year BMW X3 lease and couldn't be happier; that BMW was SO not worth the big bucks. The Jeep Liberty is awesome: it has a smoother ride than the BMW ever had; the transmission and handling are far superior, as well, and the Liberty Jet Limited looks good & is well appointed. Overall: I would say I am done with those foreign, high priced, rather OVER priced, vehicles."
