“Jeep Liberty is immediately recognizable as a Jeep 4x4 with its large, round
headlamps, the signature seven-slot grille, and the vehicle’s upright stance,”
said Jeff Bell, Vice President — Jeep, Chrysler Group. “Jeep Liberty’s wide
wheel flares, roof rack and externally mounted spare tire give the vehicle an
adventurous, ready-for-any-challenge appearance. With ESP, Jeep Liberty can go
anywhere and do anything with greater safety and security.”
ESP enhances driver control and helps maintain directional stability under all
conditions. It includes Electronic Roll Mitigation (ERM). ESP provides the
greatest benefit in critical driving situations such as turns and is especially
valuable when driving on mixed surface conditions such as patchy snow, ice or
gravel. If there’s a discernible difference between what the driver asks through
the steering and the vehicle’s path, ESP applies selective braking and throttle
input to put the car back onto the driver’s intended path. The system is
calibrated to offer more control of the vehicle under a variety of conditions,
and to operate in a manner that is not intrusive in normal or spirited driving.
ESP includes an advanced Anti-lock Brake System (ABS), all-speed Traction
Control System (TCS), four-wheel Brake Traction Control System (BTCS),
Electronic Roll Mitigation (ERM) and Brake Assist.
ESP adds a new dimension to Liberty’s formidable 4x4 capabilities. Two
four-wheel-drive systems are available. Command-Trac is a part-time system that
allows drivers to shift on the fly into high-range four-wheel drive at speeds up
to 55 mph. Command-Trac provides the peace of mind of available four-wheel-drive
capability for part-time use on slippery or loose surfaces (snow, mud or sand)
along with the convenience of shift-on-the-fly.
Select-Trac is a full-time four-wheel-drive system. It provides four-wheel-drive
capability for full-time year-round use on any road surface, along with
shift-on-the-fly functionality. ...Jeep Liberty: Page 2
