- The test mode was defined as the bullet vehicle moving at 69.2 km/h to impact the stationary target vehicle at an impact angle of 180º. The purpose of this test was to evaluate the aggressiveness of the bullet vehicle, a 2008 Ford F150, and the vehicle response of the target vehicle, a 2004 Jeep Liberty, in this vehicle-to-vehicle rear impact mode.

I got in a wreck with mine and the spare tire on the back was a life saver. Literally.
at low speeds
That jeep actually held up really well I'm.shocked
Julian 7160 its cause it has a wheel in the back 😂
Ya the back spear tire protects it like a airbag.
Not if you consider that the gas tank
(though protected by a tow-hitch)
Is in between the rear bumper and transmission.
The ford pinto had the same design and it caugh fire notoriously.
Same with these.
Prior to 04 jeep liberty didnt have a tow-hitch. The resulting deaths brought about a recall to remedy the defective design.
Same with the airbag sensors.
They have a recall for deploying spontaneously.
@@highrider9168 do more research on how many pintos ACTUALLY caught on fire vs other vehicles with the same gas tank locations. Plus Nader and Mother Jones lied about the number of death caused by the gas tank location. They claimed 500/900, the real number was 27. The pinto was the only compat vehicle to face a recall over failing a 35 MPH rear collision test. The same test the every other car in its class failed. 3 million pintos were built and only 27 deaths can be laid at the feet of the gas tank... Not only that the beloved XJ Cherokee ( that the Liberty replaced ) has it's tank in the same location. Your comment of them catching fire notoriously is a crock of shit. Like your stupid comment about the air bag is out of context.
Me too.. shocked.
Woah is the Jeep strong
Impressive!
Ikr
Nah the spare tire is lol
Spare tire doubles as part of the bumper!
Woah that Jeep did really good in the rear for being stock... think I found a future compact derby truck
I like test like this to show how rear passengers would fair.
That held up better than the grand Cherokee. I know from experience if rear ended hard enough, the WJ’s end up almost bent in half
I hope my Jeep Liberty doesn’t explode on me one of these days.
Aye I hope my Jeep Cherokee doesn’t explode on me one day
Just make sure your gas tank has an protective armour or shell in it or elso like the one on the for pinti
@@arandomcanadian2948 pinto didn't have a protective shell. It had a 5 cent piece of plastic over a rear diff bolt
Did you do the recall to add a trailer hitch?
Now... I don't know a lot about cars, but I got in a car crash in a hardly used 2003 Jeep Liberty, thought I'd share my experience here. I had a collision on the front drivers side corner of my car (coming towards the left fender, for angle reference) At 35mph, and though it is pretty durable from the direct front or back... It isn't from a sideways collision. The airbag didn't go off, the frame, door, and fender were completely bent inward. So much so, the fender slashed a hole through my tire, then proceeded to just crush the rest of the other components in the way. It stopped about an inch of the metal sheet bending towards my left foot, and I managed to break my back and my wrist in multiple places. The seat belt did a damn good job of keeping me alive. If it didn't hold me back, I would have hit my head much harder or flung through the windshield, depending on how much I tensed. (But i'd likely sever my spinal cord if i was tensed before I'd hit my head in that case anyways.) The compression fracture in my lower back left me temporarily paralyzed from the waist down, luckily this was only from pressure on the spinal cord, not too much damage, and was somewhat reversible after treatment. (Keyword somewhat)
Now. If i had been hit 10 degrees more to the right, my airbag would have gone off and I would have never broken my back. So, this car is pretty safe from a rear end or front collision. Elsewhere, not so much.
I know my comment is a bit late, but the 2003 was never equipped with side airbags
not safe at all for a rear collision!! it's fuel tank will burn up.
@@MommyKhaos right
@@MommyKhaos true, I have a 2003 Ltd no side air bags.
My liberty goes through pure Hell when offroad. Literally flooring it in 4LO in deep mud and bashing over rocks. But the engines fail its a Dodge so well see how long I can run this jeep hard its been 5yrs now
My 02 liberty is a paintball tank ☺️

yep, my 02 liberty passenger airbag went off whenever i was idle, my 7 month old dog was in the passenger seat. thank god the airbag didn’t hit her because it came out fast and hard.
my bad, forgot to mention that i was told there was no recall on my vehicle and they wouldn’t fix my airbag, talk about a load of bullshit.
Trailer hitch is not installed from the factory after 04 you have to put one on yourself
The jeep has a very vulnerable gas tank. The factory answer: throw on a reese type hitch to add structure around the tank... Still worried? Uh, yeah!
Fair comment, but any good car would have an inertia switch that would cut off fuel flow after a crash.
The recall for this is simple. Jeep will install a factory trailer hitch for free. Mine is being done in about a week. So stay off my ass until then please. Hell I had a Pinto and a Suzuki Samurai in the past. So I like to live dangerously, lol.
You mean the hitch thats in the video?
Yeah its bending and puncturing the tank.
thats a fix?
Theres a few other recalls as well.
-airbag sensor
(deploys randomly)
-seatbelt tensioner
(locks/doesnt lock)
-backrest adjusters
(sheer off)
-ball joint shield
(Allow water/debris)
-ball joint
(Loss of steering)
Drive safe :)
It does not protect the fuel tank.It has been found to make things worse. Pressure Chrysler to fix them right or buy them back.They did neither with this so called recall! It was only done for image and not truth ! Seems the knew about the crumple zone issue in the rear end since a 2006 had the bolt on hatch in the floor eliminated for the fuel pump module access above the fuel tank to beef up the crumple zone that the fuel tank is right in the middle of and is made of plastic. Their own engineer in an interview stated the trailer hitch and the skid plate they offer that covers the fuel tank with a metal shield does not protect the fuel tank in a rear end collision .They moved the tank in front of the axle in the later models of the liberty and the Grand Cherokee TO fix the hazard that they will never admit to .Apparently there was no safety rating for objects crashing into the rear end that were lower then the liberty's rear bumper and the hitch that still leaves half the fuel tank exposed with nothing to protect it from being directly hit from the rear of the vehicle .
Why the ominous music
Makes me feel better about my liberty. I leave my reese hitch and trailer ball on it all the time, sticks out about 10 inches, the trailer ball I mean
😮nice
What kind of dummy was driving that F150? That jeep was clearly broken down. The F150 should have gone around.
Lmao
Some one dumb enough to buy a 150
@@topfuel6824 you get an F.
It's not a real driver! It's a factory crash test not sure what you mean by drive around. If it was real life im sure the driver of truck would see the jeep unless it was a terrorist attack
Uhh, fuel tank?
That jeep must have been a good car for brake checking
That is an fx4 super cab f150. That hurt my soul.
It’s the hitch and spare😤
حلو
I thought jeep libertys blew up when hit from behind
Sounds like you're talking about the Ford Pinto
They do if hit below the rear bumper since the tank hangs below it in a crumple zone with zero protection. They say the trailer hitch actually makes it worse tearing into the tank. Does not take any expert to see that if they understand a domino effect .They should had been all bought back ,but that would fall into the too big to fail scenario for a company over lives!
Why would they put a fuel tank in a crumple zone? Boom is the only result?
this is to show the vulnerability of the jeeps gas tank in that location?
looks like the fuel tank IS the crumple zone :)
There was a recall on Jeep liberty’s a few years back because of this. Apparently they would go full on ford pinto when hit just right
The recall added a 2" trailer hitch, which I had and I have a skid plate. I'm satisfied with that.
Yea idk looks kinda scary even with the hitch no problem hitting that gas tank :/
🚸Eventually no matter where you put a fuel tank it can get hit. Most cars have then in the sides. If you get hit on the side same results
Why ruin a nice FX4 instead of using a base model?
Jeep took that better than expected
tank car very strong machine!!!!!
Now this is a real test. Not the stupid crap where they crash into a wall. Both held up great!
Its too expensive to crash two brand new vehicle's. Also to get the most accurate results a solid structure is chosen. Notice how these are used
I have that jeep!! But what about the fuel tank. Wouldn’t it explode on impact with just a spark?😰
so you are telling me I can burn to death in my liberty if I dont gtfo after a crash? and my shitty truck would be fucked against any vehicle ?
damn it
Wow first time at once again LOL really satisfying crash never really saw I should be a verse pickup truck but there really wasn't no damage to a SUV LOL pickup trucks front not pushed in that's how I know the radiator definitely got busted LOL
Yeah the F150 got smashed but the Jeep was like “what’s that fly touching my back!”
brassrox lol i love it your friken funny dude 🙌😋
The F150 got smashed up because all cars nowadays have front crumple zones to reduce crash force's for their occupants. So in other words it did exactly as it was designed to do. The Jeep would have done the same thing if it had been the one doing the rear ending.
Nathan McDonald I respectfully agree
Those Liberties are really stout. They are unibody with a sort of secondary frame. Mechanically not so good.
Mines 18 years old, still my daily driver, I think they’re very well built. I keep mine Fluid Filmed and keep fresh up with maintenance! We’ll see here.
jajaja, yo buscando piesas para esas camioneta Jeep y aquí destruyendolas partes que necesito ,🙂😢
Jeep seemed to be in park.
i slammed into a dumpster in reverse after someone honked at me for no reason and i fucked the dumpster up bad my liberty still only has a few scratches on the bumper mercedes built the frame for them and i wish they would have put a diamler engine in there also like they did in the CRD i dont know where you can even get one anymore.
F.o.r.d. got so mad at Jeep and decided to kick Jeeps off to the side of the road dead!
That Jeep is quite strong
Yea my jeep got hit by one of those old f150s and destroyed dudes truck
Salen buenas las liberty
All cars are stronger on the rear. Try front to front and lets see the jeep.
It’s that back tire
Yes it's the spare tire. Helps alot as you can see. I have a 04 very happy with it.
Looks like the Jeep barely absorbs any of the impact, probably worse injuries for the people in it.
better than getting crushed in the back seat.
KJ 😍😍😍
Did... did no one notice the Jeep's driver seat? I'm a Mopar guy, and I was immediately struck (no pun intended) by that seat just giving the F**K out...
Mopar baby
Lots of energy was absorbed by the f 150 crumpling at the nose. If this was an 87 K5 blazer with a push bar this would been much worse. I'm an auto tech and was apauled by the location of this gas tank the other day. That's what got me curious enough to find this video.
I'm no engineer but you don't have to be to see a problem here. WTF Jeep?
supersportryder doubt it. My buddy lost his breaks while off roaming down a steep hill and nailed my 06 liberty. The front of the k5 was gone and my Jeep drove itself to the body shop.
Liberty's KK was redesign and are safer .
what year was it redesigned ? because i have a2005

Swap positions and the Jeep will be a garbage heap. BUILT FORD TOUGH !!!
The jeep is a garbage heap.

It held up cause of the spare tire dummies
Old truck held up good
the liberty did better
I wanna see the explosion DX

The jeep looks like it could drive again but the Ford is totaled
Crumple zone, all cars have em these days.
@@nathanmcdonald610 i dont think i want to die getting crushed in the back seat so ill take the libby
My lil bro has a F 150 that worries me jeep did better
Nice explosion! Wtg jeep!
I own an 05 n she tougher than a nickel steak
Those jeep libertys are built heavy and strong good derby car
Cars are at the back always stronger
No they aren't, they're actually weaker. The front of a vehicle is designed to crumple up and absorb the impact, hence the term "crumple zone". Physical damage doesn't tell the whole tale.
Most vehicles have the fuel tank in the side. If you get hit in the side same results. Better get an electric vehicle, problem solved 😉
Yup, the battery is the full width of the vehicle. Hit from any side you will explode. No need to argue over which side to get hit from again!
Short out and incinerate everyone. Just look at shorted cell phone battery videos- HOT!
A few days ago a Tesla hit a tree and exploded in my neighborhood. Ka-boom.
I made my 2014 F 150 have 600 hp

The more they get crunched and crush ...the safer they are for passengers ...its called a crumple zone and Mercedes Benz created it.
Did Mercedes put the gas tank in the crumple zone? Lol
es una vil vergüenza la mala calidad de Ford
Ford kicks liberty's ass
That ford will never drive again
@@kyboy5 total loss
Yes I seen that ford kiss liberty’s ass
Ford made in plastic...
Looks like the f150 got the worst of the deal. Ford fanboys just ignore it, they got to keep up all the Ford hype.
no...
Looks to me like the Ford functioned exactly as engineered...with crumple zones...Guess you don't know what those are, so let me enlighten you before you further make a fool of yourself. ALL modern cars and trucks are designed with the intention to crumple up in the event of a head on collision, why you might ask? To absorb impact and reduce crash stresses on the occupants of the vehicle.
Compare this 1979 F-350 crash test to what you see here.
czcams.com/video/Ca3lpWYWP_w/video.html
On the surface it may look like the 79 truck is much more durable, but the reality is that even the old truck looks more solid, it's not nearly as safe for the occupants, its all about basic physics, something you seem to have little grasp of. The 79 Ford does not have crumple zones, so this translates to much more severe crash force's on the people inside of the it because less impact is absorbed.
See that wasn't so hard to understand now was it?
@@nathanmcdonald610 Thanks Professor Googlit.
@@beezertwelvewashingbeard8703 Someone had to do it since people are to stupid to look up their own facts apparently.
If that be the case the jeeps crumple zone did better than fords
