How many miles will a 2007 Liberty last?
The 491 mileages owners gave run from 20 to 299,999 miles. A quarter are at or under 33,245 miles, half at or under 55,000, three quarters at or under 92,000 and nine in ten at or under 130,000; 102 (21%) came after 100,000 miles, 29 (6%) after 150,000 and 6 (1%) after 200,000.
These mileages say when owners reported a problem, not when a 2007 Liberty wears out. NHTSA's file holds only vehicles whose owners complained; one that ran without a problem never appears in it, so it gives no lifespan and no cutoff, and how a vehicle was maintained matters more than any one odometer reading.
Most of these reports came early in the vehicle's life: 389 of the 491 came at or under 100,000 miles. The 102 past that mark show the 2007 Liberty still being driven at those mileages, not how many reach them: NHTSA's file counts complaints, not the vehicles on the road.

Common problems with the 2007 Liberty
NHTSA's file holds 703 owner complaints on the 2007 Jeep Liberty. Owners named visibility most often: 220 complaints, and half of the 201 that list a mileage came after 44,000 miles. A complaint can name more than one component.
| Component (NHTSA category) | Complaints | Listing mileage | Median mileage |
|---|---|---|---|
| Visibility | 220 | 201 | 45,000 |
| Fuel System, Gasoline | 110 | 43 | 45,000 |

| Suspension | 79 | 53 | 108,000 |
Of the 703 complaints, 25 report a crash, 12 report a fire and 14 report an injury (21 people reported injured). These are owners' reports to NHTSA, not findings.
Is the 2007 Liberty a good year?
Complaint counts cannot say whether the 2007 is a good or a bad Liberty: they rise with how many were sold and how long they have been on the road. They show how the 2007 compares with the other model years in NHTSA's file.
With 703 complaints, the 2007 ranks 6th of the 12 Jeep Liberty model years from 2001 to 2012 with 10 or more complaints, counting from the most. The most: the 2002 (1,808). The fewest: the 2001 (10).
Recent model years have had less time to collect complaints, so their counts are still growing. No year is ranked by mileage here, because a year's median mileage mostly follows its age.
| Model year | Owner complaints | Listing mileage | Median mileage |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2001 Liberty | 10 | 4 | Under 10 mileages |
| 2002 Liberty | 1,808 | 1,046 | 82,000 |
| 2003 Liberty | 1,353 | 838 | 70,000 |
| 2004 Liberty | 1,101 | 749 | 65,000 |
| 2005 Liberty | 1,118 | 764 | 69,425 |
| 2006 Liberty | 1,372 | 1,010 | 56,500 |

What these figures can and cannot tell you
- Complaints are owners’ reports to NHTSA. NHTSA publishes them without verifying them: a complaint is an allegation, not a defect finding.
- The mileage is what the owner wrote on the complaint; NHTSA does not check it against the odometer.
- The make, model and model year are the ones on the complaint. NHTSA records them as filed, so a few complaints sit under a model year the name was not sold in.
- They are not a lifespan study. The file holds only vehicles whose owners reported a problem, so these figures do not say how long a typical 2007 Liberty lasts.
- A complaint count rises with how many vehicles were sold and how long they have been on the road, so it is not a rating of the 2007 Liberty.
- Nothing here describes one vehicle: its title brands, odometer readings, accidents and open recalls are in the records for its own VIN.
- 212 of the 703 complaints on the 2007 Jeep Liberty give no usable mileage (blank, zero, a filler such as 999999, or over 500,000) and are left out of every mileage figure.
- NHTSA name counted: LIBERTY. NHTSA files some vehicles under several names (a series name and a trim name, for example); this page counts only this one.
- Recall-file name matched: LIBERTY.
