Overview & Reviews

An all-new diesel engine option makes its debut for the 2005 Jeep Liberty. Exterior appearance changes this year include a new front fascia, grille, foglamps, fender flares and body side moldings. Interior upgrades include relocated power window switches, new instrument panel cluster graphics and trim bezels and improved seat comfort. The Renegade model gets a flatter hood, taller grille, off-road foglamps and taillamp guards, as well as functional rock rails and four skid plates. A new six-speed manual transmission replaces last year's five-speed unit.

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

• Gas engines are rather thirsty at the pump, not as "carlike" on the street as most of its competitors, less cargo space than some of its competitors.

  Renegade 4 wheel drive - 2005 Jeep Liberty
  By Melissac1995 - March 21 - 10:00 am

  Drives excellent, fully loaded, but remember it is an suv, 4 wheel drive so expect a little out side noise, whining, and truck like tendencies. But much better than an economy car. I love it!

  Third entry - 2005 Jeep Liberty
  By winter2 - February 13 - 10:46 am

  Nearly have 6K miles on my CRD. Has been trouble free save for the one incident at less than 600 miles. Has been flawless since then. Traveled to Florida and averaged 27.1 mpg for the trip. Ran like a dream and ran away a few times because I forgot to engage the cruise control. Seats are really comfortable and I was able to drive for long periods without pain or discomfort. A/C was great in Florida and had a nominal impact in fuel economy. Performance has improved with mileage. More pulling power than before.

  I love this vehicle. It has great acceleration for city driving and handles well. Much smoother ride than I expected, too.

  Just took delivery today - 2005 Jeep Liberty
  By stewalaska - December 18 - 5:46 am

  I just got back from rooting around in the Alaskan snow in my new Jeep! I gotta tell ya....this is one impressive off-roader. My Liberty is such a nice change from driving a boring vehicle. I traded a 1995 Pathfinder in on the Liberty, and also have a 01 Outback that does great in the snow, but neither can compete with this machine, especially in the deep, rough stuff. It is obviously too early to give a "real" review since it still has only 100 miles on it, but it got a breaking in this afternoon! Time will tell...

  Love It - 2005 Jeep Liberty
  By Nate - December 9 - 9:36 am

  So far, it has been great. Its fun to drive. It has enough power for merging onto the interstate or mucking around on dirt roads. Ive taken it on roads trips, had in deep in the country, and Ive used it to go to formal parties downtown.

  Finally Have My Liberty! - 2005 Jeep Liberty
  By Jeep Liberty Sport - December 7 - 4:46 am

  I love my new 2005 Liberty Sport, and the black clearcoat looks awesome!! After my saturn was totaled in an accident, I am now so grateful and fortunate to own my Jeep Liberty. I have been waiting months and doing my research, which had me stuck between the Toyota RAV4 and the Liberty, both my dad and sister have a Liberty. They are an incedibly well built SUV, that can get through any terrain. I live in a mountain area next to Lake Tahoe, where an SUV really needs to do what it claims, and hands down, the Liberty has the best 4X4 system in its class, and looks the best too! I did not feel as safe in the RAV4, the choice was easy!!!
