Why does my Jeep Liberty stall at start up?
Since the Liberty is only a 2003, I can’t imagine any switch inside the vehicle going bad. In the engine compartment, it could several components which might be suspect. The gripe is, too much “juice” at start-up, therefore burning up the starter and or switch. It is simple to conclude there is an electronic short somewhere in the system.
What’s the problem with my 2002 Jeep Liberty?
After about three years of little problems with my 2002 Liberty, I now have a big one. At about 38,500 mile (out of warranty of course) the engine start dieing. I took it to my dealer and they replaced the Crank Sensor.
How long does it take for a Jeep Liberty to start?
The last two days I’ve ran the vehicle in the company parking lot for ten minutes so it won’t die on the road. It starts ok, but runs a little rough. After about five minutes, the Tach goes from 600 rpm (Idle) to 5000 rpm (the engine does not rev up) then to zero. the engine dies.
Why does my Jeep Liberty make a noise when starting?
It never made the noise prior to the first replacement and now the regional tech is trying to tell me that this noise is “normal” and due to holding the key too long. All of the tech’s at this dealer have acknowledged that the noise is not normal and is caused when the starter is dis-engaging from the fly wheel.

Why does my car run at idle all the time?
The idle air control valve (or “motor” or “actuator”) is a pretty common cause to that problem here on many vehicles, not just Liberties. the shop put on a new Idol Control sensor. Not sure what part that is. The only sensors involving idle speeds I can think of, one is in the valve described above, and the other is the crank position sensor.

What happens if the starter on a Jeep Liberty is fried?
If the starter is being fried, then the starter has been placed in a postion as a “fusable link”. I venture to say that much of the Liberty’s wiring has been put under tremendous strain from over-voltage, that even if its fixed, then unsafe situations in the wire’s integrity are almost guaranteed.

Crankshaft Position Sensor (OE Mopar) – when this sensor fails, the engine will not start.

When it fails, it’s common to not have a check engine light, making it tricky to diagnose.

MAP Sensor (OE Bosch) – this is the main engine sensor for the Jeep Liberty CRD. It is responsible for measuring boost pressure and intake air temperature. This sensor often gets plugged up with oily soot and fails, causing the engine to run poorly.
What happens if the coolant temperature sensor fails?
Coolant Temperature Sensor (OE VM Motori) – it’s common for this sensor to fail and not trigger a check engine light and cause poor glow plug performance and reduced fuel economy. When it fails it provides inaccurate readings to the ECM.

What to do if your Jeep Liberty stalls?
Got all the stuff done to it, took it out 4 miles into the trip it stalls, same symptoms, RPM gauge goes nutz and smells of gas, cant restart it unless you let it sit for a few hours. Anyway, got it towed to the garage again, this time they said it needed two what they called Transmission sensors. They replaced them free of charge.

Can a bad throttle position sensor cause idle surging?
Idle surging can be caused due to other issues in the car, but if it happens in conjunction with other throttle position sensor symptoms, the culprit is often the TPS. At idle, the ECM will not get the correct information and the throttle will variate randomly causing idle surges. 3) Check Engine Light
Why does my car stall when I step on the gas?
The stalling might still be caused by a faulty Idle Air Control valve. To find out if it is, the next time you come to a stop, while braking with your left foot, slightly step on gas pedal with your right foot. If doing this prevents the engine from stalling, replace the IAC valve. oldtimer_11 July 6, 2016, 6:42am #3

It does not make any noise, unless you are just a picky weirdo, hopefully not. If you paid to have the work done, then get it done right. Or record the sound and post it or email it to me. I haven’t had to pay for anything yet as it is still under the original mfgr warranty.
