Overview & Reviews

Finally replacing the boxy Cherokee that has been in production since 1984, the handsome all-new 2002 Jeep Liberty serves as the affordable SUV in Jeep's lineup. Borrowing styling cues from the 1997 Jeep Dakar and 1998 Jeepster concept vehicles, the Liberty is available in two trim levels with your choice of two- or four-wheel drive, a four- or six-cylinder engine and a manual or automatic transmission.

• Extremely capable off-road, creative interior design, still a Jeep at heart.

• Thirsty at the gas pump, not as "car-like" as most of its competitors.

  Youll never get me out of a Liberty - 2002 Jeep Liberty
  By BabsIDC - October 16 - 10:00 am

  This is not a vehicle for folks who want the immenities of a Lincoln Town Car but have more room. The Liberty is a Jeep through and through and doesnt pretend to be anything else. The Liberty gives you anything you could ask for in the "utility" department (handling, room, features, dependabilty). I have had no complaints regarding anything dealing with the functionality of the Liberty. Plus, it is one of the most dependable vehicles I have ever owned. Avg 17 mpg, but that is the exact rating, cant complain. Summary: dependable, functional, fun, comfortable, inexpensive.

  Stick with Jeep - 2002 Jeep Liberty
  By Scott - July 11 - 9:53 pm

  I purchased my black 2002 Jeep Liberty Limited only about 6 months ago. The SUV had around 78,000 miles on it, which worried me a bit. Im now up to 86,000 miles and havent had a problem! I absolutely love this truck, especially in the snow!

  So far sooo good! - 2002 Jeep Liberty
  By desertjeeper - May 28 - 10:00 am

  This is my first American brand car since 1985. I am very happy with this car to date and not one regret. Traded in a RAV4L, what a difference! Way more fun to drive. Surprised at value for money in comparison.

  Best vehicle Ive owned! - 2002 Jeep Liberty
  By jeepsrock1 - April 9 - 10:12 pm

  We have had this Liberty for over 8 years. Its reliable, would drive it anywhere! For 8 years weve put new tires on, brakes, oil changes and thats it! It has not needed anything but normal maintenance nothing!! Its so easy to drive and park being small and theres only one thing I wish was different and thats the MPG, which can be helped some by driving sensibly.

  Jeep Liberty will set you free - 2002 Jeep Liberty
  By natep - March 22 - 10:00 am

  I cant say enough about my Jeep Liberty. Ive had it since 11-01-01 and it hasnt disappointed me once. The price tag on these jeeps should be about 5K higher. No joke. The ride quality is superb. There is alittle wind noise at speeds of access of 70mph butif you have the radio on you at all you wont even realize the minor wind noise. As far as power is concerned when is there ever enough? The 210 horse power v6 is plenty enough to do all an SUV is ment for. Ive personally went through some deep mud pits in my Liberty and never once have I got stuck, I have a 4x4 of course.

  MY ANYTHING VEHICLE - 2002 Jeep Liberty
  By Tripol - January 14 - 10:00 am

  WOW! I never realized I could have a car seat in the back and still feel like I can go off roading! Seriously, the Liberty has been a lot of fun to drive so far. I took it off road once for some very casual riding and could tell I was not stretching its legs at all. I am confident that this will be a great all terain vehicle when needed. The only drawback against this vehicle could be gas mileage, but on my highway driving I have been getting almost 25 mpg. That beats the sticker disclosure by 5 mpg! I have gotten a ton of comments on its sharp looks. Everyone is stopping and looking! I love it!

  Get Your Own!!!!! - 2002 Jeep Liberty
  By Lenchud - December 8 - 10:00 am

  I wont let my wife drive this vehicle. Im afraid she wont want to drive her car anymore, its that good. This is the best small/mid-size SUV out there. The CRV, Rav-4, Escape are merely glorified station wagons compared to this vehicle. If you prefer the former to the latter, stay away from this Jeep. If you want the real deal in an SUV, GET YOUR OWN!!!!!! Fully equipped with leather, ABS, sunroof, and the slickest interior around, it cost only $25738, which is more affordable than my wife. I may get rid of her, but I think Ill keep the Lib!
