Jeep Liberty overheating?

Don’t panic, burp the system first! 2012 Jeep Liberty Jet overheating.

You would not believe what a lifesaver your video was. I had to change my water pump and radiator. As soon as everything was done, I started to get popping noises from the radiator. Thinking I got a bad water pump or thermostat I was about to tear apart everything again until I saw this video. No one has mentioned how crucial this is to do. Thanks again for posting this.

My daughter's car was diagnosed by the mechanic as "dead", with a cracked head, and they advised us to scrap the car (set it on fire actually).
The car sat idle in a paddock for 2 months while we de-registered it and prepared to scrap it.
I bought a new thermostat, I thought, "for $25, I'll try to fix it myself, if it doesn't work, then I'll get rid of it".

This morning, while researching videos on how to replace the thermostat, I came across this video.
I did exactly what you said and HOLEY MOLEY - I just drove the car 10 kilometres and the temp gauge never moved above half, not even 1mm.
You've helped me to help my daughter recover about $8, 000 in car value - I can't thank you enough for making this video.

Thank you for taking your time to share this with the community!!!! My son's 2010 Jeep Liberty had the exact issues you are having and it even threw a coolant engine code. Couldn't figure out why and was about to change the thermostat and BOOM... your video fixed all issues!!! Still dont know where the coolant is going, oil looks great and no signs of leaks but everything works great now. YOU ARE THE

Hey man I did this, I was stranded on the road, car on boiling red H . Trying to get it home. I did this and I was like a gallon and a half empty from the pipe you showed us. I then bled it like you said and thank God it worked. Saved me thousands. Was about to scrap it

[ajwunde]

Dude, you are the best! I fixed a leak in the heater line, spilled a bit of coolant doing it and got this exact issue. Everywhere I searched there was no mention of this burping issue. Sure enough, that's all it took to fix it.
Thank you for the detailed explanation of the issue and how to fix it. Much love from Michigan.

Thanks so much you just saved me so much time and money.
This is coming from someone who is not at all mechanically inclined.

Big help here with h the vapor lock. The water pump was shot so I replaced it but engine still overheated. Changed thermostat but still overheating until I saw your video. Stable temps now…many thanks!!!

[randylovett]

This could be my issue, I’m excited to try it in the a.m! Thank you for giving us your time on here that’s very awesome man

Thank you for the video. I've struggled with the heat in my 08 Liberty for years. After back flushing the heater core with CLR I had decent heat for about 2-weeks, then after a long road trip this last weekend it suddenly stopped and the vehicle started overheating. I thought it must be the thermostat, but after watching your video and bleeding the system my heat is better than it's ever been.

Thank you, sir. For saving me $$$$. And my nerves. Because I was getting ready to spaz out.
Best wish to you and your daughter.

[danielsanders]

Awesome. Thank you. Helped with my restarts and so far it’s not over heating. I’d still like to put this new radiator fan in though lol

Got a 2012 Liberty & it’s running a lil warm & the heater officially started running cold yesterday. Glad I saw this before I started buying parts. Gonna replace coolant & try this.

[shawdawg]

I followed your video instructions tonight, it took me maybe 20 mins and now my ‘08 NorthEdition is running like a champ.

Thank you!

our 2008 Libby's heater core went out on our Alaska trip - (at around 100, 000 miles on the odometer) used some additive to stop the leak for a few thousand miles, eventually spent about $1, 300 to get the heater core replaced. Water pump is being replaced now at 151, 000 miles.

[timfunk]

I just did that job yesterday, same problem, I did have to replace the water pump. The torx bit is a T 27 for the overflow and washer unit.
111, 000 miles

This video just saved my daughter from buying a new radiator. Thank you!
