Jeep Liberty KK (2nd Generation)

2008–2012 · KK · suv

Unibody construction, built at Toledo North alongside Egyptian and Venezuelan assembly. Engines: 3.7L Chrysler PowerTech V6 (210hp) in North America, plus a 2.8L VM Motori turbodiesel for European markets through 2010. Sky Slider optional canvas roof was a signature feature. Production ended August 2012; replaced by the unrelated Cherokee KL crossover.

Watch out: Same 3.7L PowerTech V6 valve seat issues that plagued the KJ — exhaust valve seats can drop and destroy the engine, with no real warning. Ball-joint and tie-rod wear from the heavy unibody on small components also continues. The Sky Slider roof, when fitted, becomes a leak path with age.
