2006 Jeep Commander 4x2

MY CAR LEAKS DURING RAIN FROM THE SUNROOF TO THE BLUE HOSE DRAIN AND FLOODED MY CAR. WHICH MESSED UP THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. I'M HAVING PROBLEMS WITH MY CAR SAYING IT'S OVER HEATING BUT IT'S NOT IT'S THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM TELLING THE COMPUTER IN CAR THAT IT'S HOW WHEN ITS NOT AND NOW MY TRANSMISSION IS MESSED UP WE THINK. MY CAR IS CURRENTLY AT JEEP DEALER IN CERRITOS, CA FOR 2 DAYS NOW AND NO ONE CAN TELL ME WHAT WRONG.

ENGINE STALLS AT SPEEDS ABOVE 60 MPH. THIS HAPPENS WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAYS AND HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES IN THE LAST WEEK.

THE SUNROOF DRAIN DESIGN WAS FAULTY. DURING RAINING WEATHER, THE SUNROOF DRAINS CANNOT HANDLE THE COLLECTED RAIN AND THE RAIN WILL OVERFLOW AND GO INTO THE CAR. THE RAIN THAT OVERFLOWS FALLS INTO THE FRONT PANEL AND HAS CAUSED MULTIPLE ELECTRICAL FAILURES AND SHORTAGES. MOST IMPORTANTLY THE WATER HAS DAMAGED THE INSTRUMENT PANEL AND HEADLIGHT CONTROLS WHICH CAUSES THEM TO SHUT OFF WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE.

WHEN CRUISE IS SET CAR EXCELS IN SPEED *TT *TR

FIRST ANNOYANCE WAS THE INSIDE DOOR HANDLE ON THE DRIVERS SIDE. IT FAILED TO OPEN THE DOOR AT AROUND 45,000 MILES. THEN THE REAR PASSENGER INSIDE DOOR HANDLE JUST CRUMBLED OUT OF NOWHERE AROUND 47,000 MILES. THEN AROUND 50,000 MILES THE BRAKES 'FELT DIFFERENT' WHEN BRAKING AND IT FELT TO HARD TO PRESS DOWN ON THE PEDAL TO STOP THE VEHICLE. THE BRAKE PEDAL FELT HARD AS A ROCK THEN THE ABS WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON AND AFTER A DIAGNOSIS I WAS TOLD THAT IT HAD TO BE REPLACED. WHENEVER WE WENT THROUGH A PUDDLE OF WATER ON A TURN THE JEEPS STEERING WOULD LOCK UP AND JUST KEPT MOVING FORWARD & NOT TURNING.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 JEEP COMMANDER 4X2. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FRONT DRIVER AND PASSENGER DOOR HANDLES FRACTURED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER (HOLLYWOOD CHRYSLER JEEP, FT. LAUDERDALE, FLORIDA, 954-399-598) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE DOOR PANELS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. LATER, THE REAR DRIVER AND PASSENGER DOOR HANDLES ALSO FRACTURED. THE FAILURES WERE NOT REPAIRED. ADDITIONALLY, THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V438000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM). THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 135,000. PARTS DISTRIBUTION DISCONNECT.

THE A/C INLET FITTING IS DEFECTIVE CAUSING THE COOLANT TO LEAK OUT AND THE ENGINE TO OVERHEAT, THE PCM IS DEFECTIVE AND SAYS THE TIRE PRESSURE IS LOW WHEN IT ISNT

DEFECTIVE VALVE SEAT FELL INTO CYLINDER. MANY COMPLAINTS ON LINE INCLUDING MINE. FULLY MAINTAINED. RAN FINE AND PARKED. WOULDN'T RE-START. HAD IT CHECKED AND THE CYLINDER WAS SHATTERED. GLAD I WASN'T DRIVING ON THE ROADWAY AS THE ENGINE WOULD OF STOPPED AND SO WOULD STEERING AND BRAKES.JEEP WAS IN STORAGE SINCE 2015.

DRIVING UNDER CERTAIN CONDITIONS THE VEHICLE ENGINE COMPLETELY SHUTS OFF AND STALLS. THIS HAPPENS ON THE HIGHWAY, MOSTLY AT SPEEDS OF ABOUT 45-60 MPH. THE TWO RECALLS AVAILABLE ON THE VEHICLE AS IT RELATES TO THIS ISSUE (TCM/PCM ) ( IGNITION SWITCH) HAVE BEEN RECENTLY FIXED BY THE DEARLERSHIP, HOWEVER THE VEHICLE CONTINUES TO MULFUNCTION IN THE SAME MANNER AND APPEARS TO BE GETTING WORSE. CONTACTING CHRYSLER, THEY ARE ABRASIVE AND UNCOOPERATIVE. A LITTLE RESEARCH SHOWS THAT THERE ARE SEVERAL OWNER COMPLAINTS ON THIS VERY ISSUE DATING BACK TO 2006-2007-2008. THERE APPEARS TO BE AN "ACTIVE" INVESTIGATION ONGOING BY THE NHTSA-OFFICE OF DEFECTS INVESTIGATIONS. WHAT IS THE STATUS OF THIS INVESTIGATION-10 YEARS LATER??? THERE APPEARS TO BE NO INTEREST ON THE PART OF THE MANAUFACTURER TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE WITHOUT THE VEHICLE OWNER INCURRING MASSIVE LOSES IN ENDLESS DIAGNOSTIC AND REPAIR EXPENSES.

SEVERAL TIMES OVER A COUPLE OF MONTHS THIS VEHICLE HAS STALLED WHILE DRIVING AND HAS ALMOST CAUSED SEVERAL ACCIDENTS. AUTO SHOPS CANNOT IDENTIFY THE PROBLEM.

WE PURCHASED OUR 2006 JEEP COMMANDER IN NOVEMBER, 2008. THE FIRST PROBLEM WE EXPERIENCED WAS THE ROUGH VIBRATION OF THE FRONT END. WE TOOK IT TO OUR MECHANIC AND WAS TOLD THAT HE WAS UNABLE TO SEE ANY THING PHYSICALLY WRONG. THIS PROBLEM HAS INCREASED OVER THE YEARS. THE SECOND PROBLEM WE NOTICED, ALL OF THE INTERIOR DOOR HANDLES BROKE WHICH CREATES SOME DIFFICULTY IN EXITING THE VEHICLE. WE MAINTAINED REGULAR MAINTENANCE ON THIS VEHICLE AND THE ONLY OTHER PROBLEM WE EXPERIENCED UNTIL NOW, WE PURCHASED TWO NEW BATTERIES AND THE AIR CONDITION BLOWER WAS REPLACED. IN AUGUST, 2014, I STARTED THE TRUCK, PRECEDED OUT OF THE PARKING LOT AND ALL THE DASH LIGHTS CAME ON AFTER A MINUTE OR SO THE LIGHTS WENT OFF BUT THE ENGINE LIGHT STAYED ON FOR 1 DAY. IT HAS DONE THIS SEVERAL TIMES AND THEN THE LIGHTS STARTED COMING ON WHILE I WAS DRIVING AT ANY SPEED IT APPEARED AS IF THE TRUCK WAS SHUTTING DOWN. IF I WAS ABLE TO I WOULD PULL OVER AND RESTART THE TRUCK THIS PRACTICE DID NOT STOP THE LIGHTS FROM COMING ON AND OFF. I WAS SITTING AT THE RED LIGHT AND PROCEEDED TO MOVE THE VEHICLE WHEN THE LIGHT CHANGE AFTER APPROXIMATELY 5 SECONDS OF ACCELERATION THE TRUCK SHUT COMPLETELY OFF THE DRIVER BEHIND ME COULDN'T HAVE NONE I WAS STOPPING BECAUSE I NEVER HIT THE BRAKES. I PLACED THE VEHICLE IN PARK AND RESTARTED IT. YESTERDAY WHILE DRIVING ALL THE LIGHTS CAME ON AND FLASHED OFF AND ON FOR ABOUT 5 MINUTES. I CONTINUED TO DRIVE FOR APPROXIMATELY 10 MILES TURNED THE KEY OFF AND THE KEY WAS UNUSUAL

THE FRONT MODULE IS CORRUPT. IT CAUSING VARIOUS ELECTRICAL ISSUE. LIGHTS, BLINKERS, RADIO, SPEAKERS, DASHBOARD DISPLAYS, HEATING/COOLING, ARE ALL INOPERABLE. JEEP IS CLAIMING THAT THIS IS NOT THEIR RESPONSIBILITY. THIS PART IS NOT MECHANICAL. I CAN UNDERSTAND WEAR AND TEAR BUT THIS ISSUE WOULD BE A FAULTY PART NOT AN ISSUE OF MAINTENANCE OR THE LACK OF. WITHOUT A RECALL, I AM SUBJECT TO EXPENSE THAT COULD END UP COSTING ME $1000 TO $3000. I FIND THIS TO BE SITUATION WHERE JEEP IS TAKING ADVANTAGE OF THEIR CLIENTELE. I HAVE SEARCHED MULTIPLE FORUMS AND FOUND THIS TO BE A RE-OCCURRING ISSUE IN MANY OF JEEPS MODELS. THIS AN INJUSTICE AND UNETHICAL ACT UPON THE CONSUMER. THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN ESCALATING SINCE 2012. *TR

VEHICLE TURNED ON AND AS I WAS PULLING OUT OF DRIVE WAY, THE TRUCK TURNED OFF AND COULD NOT GET IT TO TURN BACK ON, IT MAKES ONLY A CLICKING SOUND, I HAVE CALLED THREE DIFFERENT JEEP DEALERS AND SAY TO NOT HAVE THE PART OR KNOW WHEN IT WILL BE AVAILABLE.

MY CAR CUT OUT AT 65 MPH IN HEAVY TRAFFIC. I LOST MY POWER BRAKES AND STEERING. ADDITIONALLY I LOST MY AIRBAGS. THIS IS THE 12TH TIME THIS HAS OCCURRED. I CALLED JEEP AND ASKED FOR A LOANER OR RENTAL TILL THIS IS RESOLVED BECAUSE THERE IS NO FIX AND THEY SAID THEY WOULD NOT. I HAVE NOTHING ON MY KEY RING THAT COULD HAVE CAUSED THIS PROBLEM AND MY KNEE IS 8 INCHES FROM THE IGNITION SO I KNOW I DID NOT BUMP IT WITH MY KNEE. JEEP WILL NOT WORK WITH ME AND STATE IT IS SAFE TO DRIVE AND I SHOULD BE CAREFUL AND TRY NOT TO HIT ANY BUMPS. *TR

INTERMITTENTLY BUT FREQUENTLY THE ABS AND OTHER DASHBOARD LIGHTS COME ON AND THE CAR DRAGS AND STOPS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. ITS VERY DANGEROUS. SOMETIMES I CANNOT GET THE CAR TO GO WITHOUT SITTING AND WAITING FOR LONG PERIODS OF TIME. IT HAS HAPPENED SINCE I HAVE OWNED IT BUT NO ONE CAN DIAGNOSE IT AND I DON'T KNOW WHEN IT WILL HAPPEN. *TR

IN TWO DIFFERENT OCCASIONS DURING A FULL STOP AND SECOND TIME WILL REDUCING SPEED TO A STOP 2006 JEEP COMMANDER 5.7 HEMI ENGINE WILL STOP RUNNING AND LOOSE ALL ELECTRICAL POWER TO THE VEHICLE, POWER BRAKE WILL BECOME HARD AND ALSO THE STEERING. VEHICLE'S POWER WILL COME BACK UP AFTER SEVERAL TRIES IN THE IGNITION. *TR

THE VEHICLE HAS SHUT DOWN ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS THIS WEEK WHILE BOTH IDLING AND WHEN IN TRANSIT. IT CAUSED A LOSS OF STEERING CAPABILITY AND OPERATION OF THE OF THE VEHICLE CAUSING A SAFETY ISSUE. CALLS HAVE BEEN MADE TO BOTH THE DEALERSHIP AND THE MANUFACTURER WITHOUT SATISFACTORY RESOLUTION. THE DEALERSHIP ACKNOWLEDGED MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS WITH THE SAME ISSUE. *TR

WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 30 MPH, DASHBOARD LIGHTS BEGAN TO FLICKER OFF AND ON AND STEERING VEHICLE INTO A LEFT TURN WAS HARD TO DO. TOOK VEHICLE TO JEEP SERVICE DEPARTMENT AND WAS ADVISED THAT PROBLEM IS A ELECTRIC STABILITY CONTROL ISSUE, THE MODULE IS DEFECTIVE AND MANUFACTURER HAS NOT IDENTIFIED A FIX. WAS TOLD I COULD PURCHASE A NEW MODULE, APPROX. $400.00 FOR INSTALL, BUT THERE IS NO GUARANTEE THAT PROBLEM WILL GO AWAY. LIGHTENING CONTINUES TO FLICKER APPROXIMATELY 3 - 4 TIMES PER MONTH. ABLE TO DRIVE VEHICLE, BUT CONFIDENCE IN JEEP AUTOS IS SHAKEN. MANUFACTURER SHOULD BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE. *TR

MY 2006 JEEP COMMANDER DOOR HANDLES ARE BREAKING ONE AT A TIME AND MAKES THE DOORS INOPERATIVE SO IN AN ACCIDENT, YOU CANNOT EXIT THE VEHICLE. CHRYSLER REFUSES TO RECALL THE VEHICLES OVER THIS ISSUE AND WILL PROBABLY WAIT UNTIL A FATALITY OCCURS.WHY DOES THE CONSUMER HAVE TO PAY TWICE AND NOT ONLY THAT,BUT OPERATE AN UNSAFE VEHICLE.THERE ARE SO MANY PEOPLE OUT THERE WITH THE SAME DANGEROUS PROBLEM,THAT CHRYSLER SHOULD BE MADE TO RECALL AND REPAIR THESE VEHICLES AND NOT PUT THE COST ON THE CONSUMER WHO PURCHASED THESE VEHICLES IN GOOD FAITH. *JS
