Pros: Feels Solid, Towing Capacity, Rugged Good Looks Cons: Feels Slightly Trucky, Front Seats could be more Comfortable The Bottom Line: Basically a macho looking Liberty, the Renegade offers all the Liberty's high points but add cool features like roof mounted light-bar and unique front fascia. A worthy choice overall.
No one could have predicted the commercial success the brand name Jeep would enjoy decades after WWII. Jeep is essentially the father of all modern off-road vehicles and they were building Sport Utility Vehicles before the term "SUV" was ever even...

Pros: Appearance, 4wd ability, visibility, and affordable options Cons: Small gas tank (18.5g)+ Low MPG (16.5) = Many visits to the gas pump. The Bottom Line: Whether you conquer the concrete jungle or off-road in the MOAB, the Jeep Liberty can appeal to your needs.
Though I didn't want to admit it, my 1987 Chevrolet Blazer was rapidly becoming an artifact: the speakers had all but disintegrated, the odometer turned over to 150k, and I had long forgotten the merits of cruise control after being without it for two...

Pros: Headroom, visibility, well built, unmistakable appearance. Cons: Steering wheel needs more tilt, cargo access a stretch The Bottom Line: The liberty clearly seperates itself from it's competition in quality, unique looks, and capability.
My wife and I started looking at buying a new vehicle about a year and a half ago. At the time she was driving my 1998 Cherokee and I was driving her 1992 Subaru Legacy ( I drive 72 mi./day). The Subaru has been a great car and we plan on keeping it as...

Pros: Fit, Finish, Power, Handling, Ruggedness, Versa-Utility Cons: Mileage, cargo area, Lousy Mileage, drivers seat, Did I mention the CRAPPY mileage, The Bottom Line: I recommend the Jeep Liberty because it is a fun vehicle that is well built and peppy. It feels like it will last forever.
In a nutshell Id have to say that I love this Jeep. There are certain things about it that drive me nuts but with any marriage that is going to happen. My 98 Dodge Intrepid was showing wear and tear and so I decided that it was time to let the old ...

Pros: Solid off-roader and weekday commuter Cons: Somewhat rough ride in back seat. The Bottom Line: If you're looking for a weekday commuter and weekend off-roader, this may be the perfect vehicle for you. Look closely, and stay away from from car based SUV's
----Begin Edit---- See bottom of review for 100K mile update ----End Edit---- I've owned a 2003 Jeep Liberty Renegade for a little over a year. It's a great vehicle and I wouldn't trade it for any other car in the world right now (uhhh...in this ...

Pros: powerful, nicely designed, nimble handling (for an SUV) Cons: HARD seats, few amenities The Bottom Line: A great replacement for the aging Cherokee, combining Jeep versatility with more sedan-like comforts.
Almost two years ago while taking a quick look at the PT Cruiser, I came across the 2002 Jeep Liberty in my dealerŐs showroom. At the time it was a new model, untested in the real world. I passed on it, opting for yet another Ford Explorer Sport. ...

Pros: Quality of power train, interior and exterior finish, handling and power Cons: Seating and pedal position The Bottom Line: One of only a few SUV's in this market capable of true off-road and city use. Performs excellently at both.
I'm extremely pleased with my '03 Liberty Ltd. Performance: Power from the 3.7L V6 is excellent and abundant throughout the RPM range. The suspension in the Liberty is typical Jeep...rock solid. I had about 500lbs of concrete mix bags in the back ...

Pros: Awesome Off-Road Capability, Spacious Cabin, Nice Looking SUV! Cons: My God, We Just Filled This Thing Up! The Bottom Line: CLICK HERE TO BUY NOW! JUST KIDDING! SUPREME OFF ROAD RULER!
Let me just start off by saying that I am going to write a review about the Liberty that I own. Not about the ones that I do not own. I have a 2003 Jeep Liberty Freedom Edition. Is is awesome. I bought this after trading a Ford Focus. What ...

Pros: Extremely capable off-road, tows well, powerful engine, 7/70 powertrain warranty. Priced very well. Cons: Power window switch placement. Not enough interior lighting. Smallish cargo hold. The Bottom Line: I would recommend this for anyone who needs 4x4 capability & all around ease of use of a vehicle.
I was looking for a small to medium-size SUV for towing a folding camping trailer, & shopped the Escape, Explorer, 4-Runner & Liberty. Found out the Liberty was the best priced of the bunch. Also came with a 7-year, 70,000-mile powertrain warranty, ...

Pros: Reliable and sturdy. Cons: Needs visors with pullout shade extenders for side protection! Back seats a little cramped. Feminine The Bottom Line: Great Reliable SUV that is not too expensive and has all the features. You should not be disappointed!
I am an extremely picky car person and had done a lot of research before buying my wife a Jeep Liberty. I am 6'2" tall and can fit comfortably into the drivers seat. The best thing about the Jeep Liberty is its reliability, features, and cost. We have ...

Pros: Roomy interior and a compact new age style. Cons: Cheap looking interior panels, passenger foot room is compromised due to the transmission tunnel. The Bottom Line: An exceptionally well priced SUV with no problems thus far.
On our search for a used SUV there were several options that I was considering. The Jeep Liberty, Ford Escape, Chevrolet Trailblazer, and the Mazda Tribute. They all were within our price range. We found our 2003 Jeep Liberty and we liked it from the ...

Pros: Ruggedness of the Jeep TJ, some of the Luxuries of the Grande Cherokee. Cons: Tight leg room. Tiny glove compartment. The Bottom Line: Why wouldn't you? I did... It's tough enough to take into the wilderness and elegant enough to drive in the city.
The quick and dirty: It's a well priced 4x4 that offers luxury and ruggedness all in one package.
The nitty gritty:
This jeep can pull! With a 3.7 liter engine and 210 horse power it can really fly on the highway. I really enjoy the...

Pros: Great Styling, rugged durability, superior braking, excellent off-road prowess. Cons: Poor seating design, lack of lighting, and some silly design concepts The Bottom Line: Absolutley a must look if you're in the market for a medium-small SUV. Terrific overall experience, and the Jeep culture is a great group of people.
I bought my 2003 Jeep Liberty Renegade in November of 2002. I've put about 15,000 miles on it now, a ...

Author's Product Rating: Recommended: Yes 
Pros: EXTERIOR, TWO-TONE INTERIOR, FACTORY 27G OPTION PACKAGE, AFTER-MARKET ACCESSORIES, STEERING WHEEL AUDIO CONTROLS Cons: MPG, WIND NOISE, ACCELERATION, NARROW BACK DOOR OPENING FOR ADULTS, NO COIN HOLDER The Bottom Line: I rate the 2003 Jeep Liberty Limited as the top MID-SIZE 4x4 SUV, and it can look better than most of those $40,000 luxury SUVs with the right accessories.
I had my eye on a Liberty since August of 2002, and finally got mine in November of 2002. I have almost 6,000 miles on it, and have had no problems that I am aware of yet. I can only speak for the loaded Liberty models, as if you buy a base Liberty...

Pros: Responsive power, Cool looks, Excellent off-road capability. Cons: Cheap cloth seats. Position of window buttons inconvenient. The Bottom Line: The liberty is a rugged off-roader and a comfortable daily use SUV. If you are buying a 4-wheel drive, then go for the full time 4WD system.
My 4-wheel drive Liberty Sport now has 28k miles on it. I bought it used in December of 2004. I drive this vehicle every day and about half of the mileage I've put on has been highway miles. I have no real complaints! It has the 3.7 liter V6 engine ...
