One of the biggest milestones that the Jeep has undergone happened with the release of the four-door Unlimited model in 2007. This model stretched both the wheelbase and overall length by 20.6’’, a fact that makes the front seats more usable. There

The Jeep Liberty succeeded one of America’s original compact SUVs, the Cherokee. True to the Jeep lineage, the Liberty proved itself worthy especially in matters off-road, thanks to exceptional suspension travel and articulation.

Still, there were some things that appeared to have escaped the eyes of the engineers. One such is the airbag functionality.
