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.

  What a Jeep in Diesel ! - 2005 Jeep Liberty
  By ronhale01 - May 29 - 11:46 pm

  This is the best thing to happen to any small suv. After driving this 4 cylinder diesel for two years I still am surprised at the power it delivers. What a shame Jeep does not offer the diesel in the 08 line-up for Liberty.

  Very nice JEEP! - 2005 Jeep Liberty
  By Joey - May 22 - 6:40 pm

  This is my first Jeep & I love it! Got the Limited, V6 with the leather, sunroof, heated seats & mirrors, 6 CD changer with Infinity speakers. The power is adequate for its class and has a lot of "get up and go!" I wish it was better at the pump ... only about 15-6 MPG. Im 61"/240# and I have plenty of leg room in the front; the back is a bit tight for me. Its fun to drive and handles very well. Recently took it on a long road trip, and its very comfortable and a smooth ride (It does get some wind noise). I was going to purchase foreign, but with the rebates and all that I got with this, I went with American.

  Jeep Liberty - 2005 Jeep Liberty
  By tracey - May 21 - 9:40 am

  I love my Jeep Liberty. It is very reliable and suits my everyday needs. I am very excited about the new Jeep Commander. I cant wait to see it in person. I am seriously considering trading Liberty in for the Commander. It was love at first sight!

  Im sold on Jeeps - 2005 Jeep Liberty
  By psa24 - May 18 - 7:46 am

  I have the Rocky Mountain edition of the 2004 Jeep Liberty. LOVE IT! Handles great. Moves when you want it to move. Drove like a dream in a foot and a half of snow. My wife drives this vehicle more than I do. But I love it so much I am buying another Jeep for myself.

  Well Pleased with our Liberty - 2005 Jeep Liberty
  By SteveT - March 3 - 12:26 am

  We have had the Liberty for about 4 months now. It continues to perform flawlessly and delivers about 20mpg around town. With all of its torque you must be careful accelerating in the wet. Other than that its a blast.

  Jeep Family - 2005 Jeep Liberty
  By Katobb - February 20 - 3:56 am

  We just picked up our new Liberty. We traded a 2000 Grand Cherokee and we also have a 2004 Jeep TJ. So far this Jeep is everything we expect and more. My wife would take my TJ because she loved the handling and the tight turning to park just about anywhere. This carries over to the Liberty but with the comforts that she wanted, like the heated leather seats, sunroof, power door locks windows, etc. The only dislike she has with her Liberty is that nobody does the "Jeep Wave" like they do with the Wrangler.

  Lifetime Jeeper - 2005 Jeep Liberty
  By Lifetime Jeeper - February 19 - 10:06 pm

  I am a lifetime Jeeper owner. I had my Wrangler for 10 years before I got the Liberty. I think that I knew that I wanted it the second that I saw it at a local car show. This is definitly the "grown up" version of the Wrangler. It has more space, go power and overall class than the other compact SUVs. The Liberty has a style all its own, and is simply unmistakable on the road. Simply put... Its a Jeep thing, you wouldnt understand. :)

  Great all around Jeep! - 2005 Jeep Liberty
  By TJFT - January 5 - 10:00 am

  The vehicle is exceptional in all areas. The upgrades to full 4 wheel disc is an improvement. The ride and handling is well tuned. Fuel economy could be better, but the vehicle weight is a great safty feature if you ask me and out weighs the fuel issue. The exterior is the typical smooth lined Jeep history of good looks and off road capabilities. All and all I would say this Liberty is well worth the money and very reliable.

  1st Time Jeep Owner - 2005 Jeep Liberty
  By Phyllis Flouhouse - January 1 - 6:56 am

  We plan to tow this Jeep with a 36 foot diesel motor home. Have been towing a Chevy Tracker 1999 model. Looking forward to enjoying comfort, reliability and appearance of our new 2005 Jeep.
