2006 Jeep Commander complaints

IN MAY, 2013 I RECEIVED RECALL, N23. SOON AFTER I HAD THE RECALL APPLIED. ON THE FIRST ATTEMPT TO USE THE 4 WHEEL DRIVE FEATURE IT FAILED. I WENT TO ANOTHER DEALER WHO DISCONNECTED THE TRANSFER CASE, CHECKED THE CONNECTIONS AND VOLTAGES AND FOUND THEM OK. THEY RECONNECTED THE TRANSFER CASE AND REPORTED IT OPERATIONAL. A FEW WEEKS LATER, WHILE TRAVELING, I RECEIVED ANOTHER WARNING THAT THE TRANSFER CASE FAILED. I WENT TO A LOCAL JEEP DEALER WHO DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM AS NEEDING AN ACTUATOR. WHEN I RETURNED HOME I WENT TO THE DEALER THAT APPLIED THE ORIGINAL RECALL WHICH WAS A SOFTWARE UPDATE. AFTER THEY CLEARED THE ERROR CODES THEY SAID THEY FOUND A BROKEN CONNECTOR ON THE ACTUATOR. I ASSUME ALL THE MANUAL HANDLING OF THE ACTUATOR PROBABLY CAUSED THE CONNECTOR TO BRAKE. I WAS TOLD THAT THE ACTUATOR HAD TO BE REPLACED BUT WAS ON BACKORDER. I HAVE PAPERWORK THAT INDICATES THAT THE ORIGINAL PROBLEM FOUND WAS A CRACKED CIRCUIT BOARD IN THE ACTUATOR. HOW CAN A SOFTWARE UPDATE FIX A CRACKED CIRCUIT BOARD? COULD THAT BE WHY THERE ARE NO NEW ACTUATORS AVAILABLE? WERE THEY PULLED OFF THE MARKET? THERE ARE MANY JEEP OWNERS THAT I AM IN CONTACT WITH THAT ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM AS I AM AND ARE BEING TOLD THE SAME THING BY CHRYSLER THAT I AM: THAT THE RECALL DID NOT CAUSE THE DAMAGE TO THE ACTUATOR. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE TO RESOLVE THIS PROBLEM. SOMEONE OUTSIDE OF CHRYSLER AND THE OWNERS NEEDS TO INVESTIGATE TO GET TO THE BOTTOM. *TR

AFTER HAVING THE N23 RECALL PERFORMED ON MY JEEP, I COULDN'T SHIFT INTO 4LO, AND WHEN I TRIED I GOT A SERVICE 4WD SYSTEM MESSAGE. AFTER 2 MORE TRIPS TO THE DEALER TO REDO THE RECALL, WITH THE SAME RESULT, MY DEALER DETERMINED I HAD A BAD TRANSFER CASE ACTUATOR. AT FIRST THEY WANTED ME TO PAY FOR A NEW ONE, BUT I POINTED OUT THAT I STILL HAD THE 100,000 MILE DRIVE TRAIN WARRANTY. THEY DID REPLACE THE ACTUATOR UNDER WARRANTY. SO FAR EVERYTHING IS OK. I USE 4LO ABOUT ONCE PER WEEK TO CHECK IF IT STILL WORKS. THE RECALL SEEMS TO DO SOMETHING TO THE ACTUATORS. ALL WAS FINE TILL I HAD THE RECALL (RE FLASH) PERFORMED. OTHERS HAVE STILL HAD ISSUES AFTER RECEIVING NEW ACTUATORS. ALSO, OTHERS HAVE BEEN FORCED TO PAY FOR THE ACTUATORS EVEN THOUGH THEY WERE OK PRIOR TO GETTING THE RECALL DONE. *TR

THE INSIDE DOOR HANDLE IS BROKEN. ALL FOUR OR THE DOOR HANDLES ARE BROKEN. THE DOOR WILL NOT OPEN FROM THE INSIDE.I HAVE MANY PEOPLE ONLINE SAY THAT THEIR JEEPS HAVE DONE THE SAME THING. MY GIRL FRIEND HAS EVEN CUT HER HAND DO TO THE SHARP EDGES WHEN IT BREAKS. IN CASE OF A FIRE OR SOMETHING WE WOULD BE TRAPPED INSIDE THE JEEP. I WOULD THINK THE JEEP COMPANY WOULD RECALL THESE TRUCKS BUT THEY WON'T FIX THE PROBLEM. *TR

THE THIRD ROW SEAT, SEATBELT BROKE, WHERE THE BELT PLUGS IN AT THE BOTTOM OF THE SEAT. IT SNAPPED OF WHILE MY FOUR YEAR OLD TRIED TO BUCKLE UP A WEEK OR SO AGO. THIS WAS SUCH A POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS PROBLEM. WHAT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED IF IT SNAPPED WHILE IN A VEHICLE ACCIDENT? MY BOY WOULD HAVE PROBABLY BEEN KILLED. WHILE LOOKING ONLINE I FOUND MULTIPLE RECALLS ON THE VEHICLE, ONE BEING THE EXACT SAME SEATBELTS. I CALLED BARNETT CHRYSLER JEEP DODGE RAM KIA IN MAPLEWOOD, MN, WHO SAID THEY WOULD HELP ME OUT WITH ONE RECALL, BUT SAID THE SEATBELT ISSUE DIDN?T RELATE TO MY VIN. I WAS BASICALLY TOLD THAT I WAS RESPONSIBLE TO FOOT THE BILL FOR THEIR FAULTY PRODUCT. DOES THIS SOUND RIGHT? IS THERE SOME TYPE OF MORAL OBLIGATION OR LAW THAT HELPS US OUT FROM BEING SCREWED OVER IN THIS SENSE? PLEASE GET BACK, WERE TAKING THE VEHICLE IN TOMORROW. WE RELY ON THIS VEHICLE, THERE ARE SIX PEOPLE IN OUR FAMILY (FOUR YOUNG CHILDREN) AND THIS IS OUR FAMILY VEHICLE. *TR

MY WIFE REPORTED A STRANGE THUMPING SOUND FROM UNDER THE CAR. SHE SAID IT BEGAN AFTER DROPPING CHILDREN AT SCHOOL AND GOING OVER A SPEED BUMP AT THE SCHOOL. SOMETHING SHE DOES EVERY DAY. UPON INSPECTION I FOUND THE DRIVER SIDE EMERGENCY BRAKE CABLE WAS INTERFERING WITH THE REAR UNIVERSAL JOINT ON THE DRIVESHAFT. THE CABLE WAS KINKED AND BEING CUT BY THE ROTATION OF THE DRIVESHAFT. THERE WAS ALSO ABRASION OF THE GAS TANK SPLASH GUARD. I HAVE NO DOUBT IF THIS HAPPENED AT HIGHWAY SPEED THE CABLE WOULD BE CUT IN HALF AND POSSIBLY WRAP AROUND THE DRIVESHAFT CAUSING THE DRIVER SIDE EMERGENCY BRAKE TO APPLY AND LOCK-UP THE WHEEL RESULTING IN A ROLLOVER. THE GAS TANK COULD ALSO HAVE BEEN PUNCTURED IF THE CABLE WAS PULLED BY THE DRIVESHAFT. SOMEHOW THE NORMAL ACTION OF THE VEHICLES SUSPENSION WAS ABLE TO PLACE THIS CABLE IN CONTACT WITH THE DRIVESHAFT. THE ROTATION OF THE UNIVERSAL JOINT CAUGHT THE CABLE PULLING IT INTO THE ROTATING SHAFT. I CONSIDER THIS A CLASS 1 DEFECT THAT SHOULD BE CORRECTED WITH A MODEL RECALL. NORMALLY THE EMERGENCY BRAKE CABLE IS ROUTED OFF TO THE SIDE AND NOT DIRECTLY OVER THE DIFFERENTIAL. WHAT WERE THEY THINKING? CHRYSLER NEEDS TO DEVISE A SUPPLEMENTAL ATTACHING POINT THAT WILL ENSURE THE CABLES ARE NOT ABLE TO CONTACT THE DRIVESHAFT EVEN UNDER EXTREME OFF ROAD DRIVING. I HAVE A FULL SET OF PHOTOS AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST. I HAVE ORDERED A NEW CABLE BUT THE PART NUMBER IS ON BACK ORDER. THIS INDICATES THERE IS A PROBLEM WHEN THE PART CANNOT BE STOCKED DUE TO

I HAVE AN EXTREME PROBLEM. I HAVE A JEEP COMMANDER AND ALL 4 DOOR HANDLES HAVE BROKEN AND NOW YOU CANT OPEN MY REAR DOORS. MY KIDS CANT GET OUT UNLESS I LET THEM OUT. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE AND I CANT BELIEVE AFTER THE HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS ON JEEP WEBSITES, THAT NHTSA HASN'T SHOVED A RECALL DOWN CHRYSLER'S THROAT. C'MON FOLKS THIS IS DANGEROUS!!! HUNDREDS AND HUNDREDS OF FOLKS HAVING PROBLEMS. LOOK ON YOU TUBE AND SEE WHAT IS LISTED THERE FOR YOU TO SEE. JUST REGULAR FOLKS HAVING A MULTI BILLION DOLLAR COMPANY STUFF IT TO EM. CHRYSLER DIDN'T EVEN OFFER TO SEND ME NEW DOOR HANDLES. THIS IS A MANUFACTURERS ERROR. *TR

2006 JEEP COMMANDER. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO REPROGRAM FINAL DRIVE CONTROLLER MODULE RECALL NOTICE AND SEEKS REIMBURSEMENT FOR REPAIRS. *SMD THE CONSUMER STATED THE VEHICLE SHIFTED INTO NEUTRAL AT THE BOTTOM OF A HILL AND WOULD NOT MOVE OUT OF NEUTRAL. SHE HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO A LOCAL REPAIR SHOP WHO INFORMED HER THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE TRANSFER CASE AND RECOMMENDED REPLACEMENT. THE CONSUMER STATED SHE WAS UNAWARE OF THE FINAL DRIVE CONTROLLER MODULE SOFTWARE ISSUE AT THE TIME. THE RECALL NOTICE WAS ISSUED IN MAY 2013, BUT SHE WASN'T NOTIFIED UNTIL SEPTEMBER. THE CONSUMER SUBMITTED THE DOCUMENTS ALONG WITH THE CONTACT INFORMATION FROM THE REPAIR SHOP, ONLY TO BE TOLD SHE WAS NOT ELIGIBLE FOR REIMBURSEMENT, BECAUSE IT WAS NOT THE SAME ISSUE AS THE RECALL DESCRIBED. SHE ASKED FOR CLARIFICATION ON THE FACTORS CONTRIBUTING TO THAT DETERMINATION AND WAS INFORMED THE REPAIR SHOP COULD NOT VERIFY THE ISSUE CAUSED BY THE DRIVE CONTROLLER MODULE.

THE PASSENGER SIDE REAR INTERIOR DOOR HANDLE CASING CRACKED CAUSING THE DOOR BEING UNABLE TO OPEN FROM THE INSIDE. A FEW MONTHS LATER, THE SAME ISSUE CAME ABOUT WITH THE DRIVER'S SIDE FRONT DOOR; HOWEVER I AM ABLE TO OPEN THE DOOR IF I ANGLE IT CORRECTLY AND WITH SEVERAL ATTEMPTS. THIS IS VERY CONCERNING AS, IN MY OPINION, IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE. IF AN EMERGENCY WERE TO HAPPEN, MY CHILDREN OR MYSELF WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO EXIT THE VEHICLE IMMEDIATELY. I HAVE SPOKEN WITH JEEP AND THEY STATED THEY ARE NOT AWARE OF ANY PROBLEM AND WOULD NEED TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE DOOR PANELS. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 JEEP COMMANDER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHEN ENTERING THE VEHICLE, THE PASSENGER'S THIRD ROW SEAT BELT WOULD NOT LATCH PROPERLY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INSPECTED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 113,700.

2006 JEEP COMMANDER WITH CHECK ENGINE LIGHT TOOK TO A MECHANIC AND WAS TOLD INPUT SPEED SENSOR WAS TOLD ITS AN INTERNAL TRANSMISSION PART . MY VEHICLE HESITATES WHEN ACCELERATING AND ALSO BUCKS. *TR

CAR DASH LIGHTS RADIO AND HEADLIGHTS WENT ON AND OFF 5 TIMES IN A 1 MILE DRIVE. CAR ALSO SHIFTED INTO NEUTRAL ON ITS OWN. CALLED JEEP. THEY SAID THAT EVEN THOUGH THESE THINGS ARE ON THE RECALL LIST MY CAR IS NOT ELIGIBLE DUE TO MY VIN NUMBER. AND IF I WANT THESE THINGS FIXED I WOULD HAVE TO PAY. *TR

2006 JEEP COMMANDER WITH CHECK ENGINE LIGHT TOOK TO DEALER AND WAS TOLD THEY COULDN'T FIX THE USED SCAN TOOL TO LOOK UP CODE P0700 AND THIS TOOK THEM TO P2767 INPUT SPEED SENSOR WAS TOLD ITS AN INTERNAL TRANSMISSION PART AND THEY CANT FIX WAS TOLD THEY CANT DUPLICATE PROBLEM SO THEY CANT FIX AT THIS TIME . MY VEHICLE HESITATES WHEN ACCELERATING AND ALSO BUCKS. *TR

WE WERE DRIVING ALONG AND STARTED BREAKING TO PREPARE TO STOP, WHEN MY 9 YEAR OLD SON, WHO WAS SEATED IN THE THIRD ROW PASSENGER SEAT, SAYS "MOM, MY SEAT BELT JUST BROKE." I TURN TO SEE WHAT HE WAS TALKING ABOUT AND HE HANDED ME THE WHOLE BUCKLE, THE PART THAT THE SEAT BELT CLICKS INTO. I WAS HORRIFIED. LUCKILY WE HADN'T BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT OR EVEN STOPPED FAST. I CALL THE MANUFACTURER TO SEE WHAT WE NEEDED TO DO. THEY TOLD ME MY VEHICLE WASN'T UNDER WARRANTY AND THEY WASN'T ANY RECALLS FOR THAT ISSUE. THEY STATED I NEEDED TO TAKE IT TO A DEALER TO SEE IF THERE WAS A DEFECT. SO, I DID AND THEY JUST TOLD ME I NEED TO REPLACE THE PART AND IT WOULD COST OVER $300, WHICH I DON'T HAVE TO SPARE. I ASK WHY I WOULD HAVE TO PAY WHEN IT WAS CLEARLY A DEFECT AND IT'S LAW THAT TO HAVE WORKING SEAT BELTS, HE SAID CHRYSLER WOULD NOT PAY FOR IT. THE METAL PIECE THAT HOLDS IT TO THE CAR OR TO SOME OTHER PIECE WAS SEVERED. I BELIEVE IT IS FROM THE FOLDING SYSTEM. OBVIOUSLY THERE IS A PROBLEM HAS I HAVE SEEN OTHER COMPLAINTS, NONE AS SEVERE AS MINE, AND A RECALL THAT WAS SIMILAR TO MY ISSUE. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE AND THE MANUFACTURER NEEDS TO BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 JEEP COMMANDER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE COMING TO A STOP THE VEHICLE, THE PASSENGER'S THIRD ROW SEATBELT LATCH FRACTURED. THE VEHICLE WAS INSPECTED BUT, NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 117,475. UPDATED 11/19/13*LJ UPDATED 11/26/2013 *JS

WHILE DRIVING ALONG A SECONDARY ROAD AT NIGHT, THE HEAD LIGHTS AND DASHBOARD LIGHTS WENT OFF SUDDENLY WITH OUT WARNING FLICKERING ON AND OFF SEVERAL TIMES BEFORE COMING BACK ON.THIS HAS REPEATED IT SELF SEVERAL TIMES. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 JEEP COMMANDER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHEN APPLYING THE BRAKES AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE WOULD EXHIBIT A WHINING NOISE AND ACTED AS IT WERE ATTEMPTING TO STALL. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A INDEPENDENT MECHANIC, WHO STATED THAT THE PROBLEM WAS UNKNOWN. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 141,600.

AS I HAVE NOW READ ONLINE OF HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS REGARDING THE SAME PROBLEM... I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HWY AT 70 MPH, THE ENGINE JUST QUIT ON MY AND EVERYTHING SHUTDOWN. I WAS ABLE TO MOVE THE CAR TO THE SIDE (WITHOUT AND POWER STEERING) AND STOP COMPLETELY, TAKE OUT THE KEY, REINSERT IT AND IT STARTED UP. NO PROBLEMS AFTER THAT UNTIL I WAS DRIVING THE HWY AGAIN IN SEPTEMBER AND IT DID IT AGAIN WITH THE SAME RESULTS. I HAVE NOW TAKEN IT TO THE DEALERSHIP (WOLFCHASE JEEP IN GERMANTOWN, TN) AND THEY ARE REPLACING THE MAP SENSOR AND A COUPLE OF OTHER THINGS - INCLUDING A MANIFOLD GASKET - FOR A TOTAL OF $1000. INTERESTINGLY WHEN I ASKED THE SERVICE REP. IF JEEP HAS A PROBLEM WITH THIS, HE DENIED ANY KNOWLEDGE OF SUCH A PROBLEM! *TR

I PURCHASED MY CAR IN JULY, 2012, IT IS NOW OCT, 2013, AND I HAVE HAD NUMEROUS PROBLEMS WITH THE JEEP, FOR STARTERS THE LIGHTS AND DASH BOARD LIGHTS KEEP FLICKERING ON AN OFF BY THEMSELVES, AND NOW JEEP WON'T PICK UP SPEED AT TIMES AND THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY STATED THAT IT WAS A SHIFT MODULE PROBLEM THAT WOULD COST 997. WELL I TOOK IT FROM THE SHOP AND A WEEK LATER BROUGHT IT BACK AND THEY THEN STATED THAT THEY WOULD HAVE TO TAKE THE TRANSMISSION APART AND CLEAN IT BECAUSE IT MIGHT BE DEBRIS THAT IS ON IT, WELL LATER THEY CALL ME TO SAY THAT IT WAS THE TRANSMISSION I NEED A NEW ONE AND FOR THAT IT WILL COST ME 2900....THERE WAS A RECALL ON THIS SAME TYPE OF PROBLEM BACK IN 2008, COULD IT BE THAT I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE AND THEY NEVER HAD THIS PROBLEM FIXED??? *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 JEEP COMMANDER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DASHBOARD GAUGES FAILED SPORADICALLY. AN UNKNOWN WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED FOLLOWED BY ALL OF THE INDICATORS ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL ILLUMINATING. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 89,000.

MY 2006 JEEP COMMANDER DRIVER SIDE SEAT BELT WONT LATCH. I HAVE TO HOLD DOWN THE RED RELEASE BUTTON TO FORCE IT TO ENGAGE. SEVEN DAYS LATER THE PASSENGER SEAT BELT WOULDN'T LATCH. THIS TIME EVEN IF I FORCE THE LATCH TO ENGAGE BY HOLDING DOWN THE RED RELEASE TAB, IT DOES NOT TURN OFF THE SEAT BELT WARNING ALARM. THIS MOST CERTAINLY IS A RECALL ITEM AND SO MANY OF US ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM AT THE SAME TIME. I AM GOING TO REPORT ALSO TO DAIMLER/CHRYSLER. *TR

I HAVE A 2006 JEEP COMMANDER, ABOUT 6 MONTHS AFTER I PURCHASED THE USED VEHICLE THE 2ND ROW SEAT BELTS LOCKED IN TO PLACE & WON'T COME OUT. I CAN NOT BRING ALL MY CHILDREN WITH ME AND IT IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE THAT THE SEAT BELTS DO NOT WORK. I SAW THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE 3RD ROW & FEEL THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL ON THE 2ND ROW AS WELL. THE SEAT BELTS WERE NOT ABUSED & WERE BARELY USED & NOT CAN NOT BE USED AT ALL. I AM TRYING TO GET AHOLD OF DAIMLER CHRYSLER TO GET THIS SAFETY ISSUE FIXED BUT SO FAR HAVE NOT GOTTEN ANYWHERE. BOTTOM LINE THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND MANUFACTURE DEFECT WITH THE SEAT BELTS. *TR

WE WERE TRAVELING HOME ON THE INTERSTATE GOING ABOUT 75 MPH, AND ALL OF A SUDDEN EVERYTHING LIGHTS UP ON THE DASHBOARD, AND MY JEEP COMMANDER STARTS SHUTTING DOWN WITHOUT WARNING! WE HAD TO COAST OFF OF A EXIT RAMP, AND WERE THANKFUL WE DID NOT GET SMACKED FROM BEHIND OR KILLED! THIS IS THE THIRD TIME THAT THIS HAPPENED TO ME. ONE OTHER TIME I WAS TAKING MY CHILD TO SCHOOL, AND IT JUST SHUT OFF WITHOUT WARNING WHILE THE TRUCK WAS IN MOTION, AND I HAD TO COAST OFF TO THE SIDE TO A CVS PHARMACY PARKING LOT! ANOTHER PROBLEM WITH THIS PARTICULAR TRUCK IS THAT THE DOOR HANDLES ARE POORLY MADE. ALL OF MY DOOR HANDLES JUST STARTED CRUMBLING ONE BY ONE AND WILL NOT OPEN FROM THE INSIDE. I HAVE ALREADY PUT IN A COMPLAINT ABOUT THE DOOR HANDLES TO NHTSA. THE LAST COMPLAINT THAT I HAVE IS WHEN IT RAINS HEAVILY, A HUGE PUDDLE WILL DAMPEN MY PASSENGER SIDE BECAUSE WATER IS BACKED UP IN THE SUNROOF DRAINS. JEEP HAS CHEATED A LOT OF PEOPLE WITH THIS JEEP COMMANDER! IT HAS TOO MANY PROBLEMS TO COUNT AND EVERYTHING COST MORE THAN WHAT THE JEEP IS WORTH! I WILL NEVER DEAL WITH CHRYSLER, JEEP, DODGE AGAIN! THEY ARE A BUNCH OF CROOKS! NHTSA PLEASE DO SOMETHING ! THIS BROKEN DOOR HANDLE ISSUE AND SHUTTING OFF WITHOUT WARNING IS GOING TO GET SOMEONE SERIOUSLY HURT OR KILLED! *JB

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 JEEP COMMANDER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 60 MPH, THE ENGINE STALLED WITHOUT ANY WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS COASTED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. THE CONTACT DISCONNECTED THE BATTERY AND THEN RECONNECTED IT IN ORDER TO RESTART THE ENGINE. THE VEHICLE RESUMED IN NORMALLY. THE FAILURE RECURRED ON A LATER DATE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING IN WHICH A TROUBLE CODE WAS NOT DETECTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE PROBLEM. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 82,000. ...UPDATED 01/13/14 *BF ACCORDING TO THE INVOICE, THE DEALER FOUND THE PCM AND FCM HAD INTERNAL OPEN CIRCUITS. UPDATED 01/15/14

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HWY AT 60 MPH. MY JEEP SUDDENLY SLOWED DOWN WITHOUT ME PUSHING THE BRAKE. I PULLED OVER AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE. THE POWER STEERING WENT OUT AS WELL. IT WOULD NOT START BACK UP. *TR

SEPT 7 THE ENGINE JUST CUT OUT OF GEAR AND STOPPED RUNNING HAD TO PULL OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD BEFORE BEING HIT FROM BEHIND AS IT STALLED.PULLED OVER SHUT OFF THE ENGINE, RESTARTED IT AND IT WAS FIRM...DROVE A FEW MILES AND THE LIGHT WENT OFF. THE SAME THING JUST HAPPENED AGAIN ON I-95 IN BALTIMORE TRAVELING AT 65 MPH. ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. PULLED OVER SHUT OFF THE ENGINE, RESTARTED IT AND IT WAS FIRM...DROVE A FEW MILES AND THE LIGHT WENT OFF. *TR

MY 2006 JEEP COMMANDER SEEMED TO LOSE POWER OR SHIFT TO NEUTRAL WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE. IT HAS HAPPENED TO ME 2 TIMES. I HAD MY 3 CHILDREN TRAVELING IN THE VEHICLE WITH ME ONE OF THOSE TIMES. I HAD TO RECRANK THE VEHICLE WHILE DRIVING. IT COMES WITHOUT WARNING. WHEN I SAW RECALL N23 I WAS RELIEVED THAT I WOULD HAVE RECOURSE TO HAVE THIS REPAIRED, BUT WHEN I CALL TODAY, THEY TELL ME MY VEHICLE IS NOT COVERED AND I WOULD HAVE TO PAY OUT OF MY OWN POCKET FOR ANY REPAIRS BECAUSE CHRYSLER DETERMINED MY VEHICLE WASN'T COVERED. I HAVE RECENTLY HAD OTHER PROBLEMS WITH THIS VEHICLE, THAT I NOW SEE MANY OTHER OWNERS HAVE HAD. THE DOOR HANDLES ARE ALL BROKEN FROM FLIMSY PLASTIC. IT REQUIRES THE WHOLE DOOR PANEL TO BE REPLACED TO REPAIR. ALSO I AM NOW HAVING STARTING PROBLEMS THAT ARE UNABLE TO BE DIAGNOSED. I HAVE BEEN A PROUD JEEP OWNER AND HAVE ENJOYED THIS VEHICLE HOWEVER, NOW I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED BY CHRYSLER. I WILL NOT BE A REPEAT CUSTOMER. *TR

I WAS DRIVING AND WHEN I ACCELERATED THE CAR SEEMED VERY SLUGGISH AND HESITANT TO SWITCH GEARS. AS I APPROACHED THE STOP LIGHT AND CAME TO A STOP I NOTICED THE CAR STALLED. SO I TURNED IT OFF AND RESTARTED IT. THIS HAS HAPPEN TWICE NOW THAT THE CAR HAS JUST STALLED. I HAVE NOW NOTICED THAT SINCE THIS INCIDENT MY CAR HAS BEEN IDLING ROUGH AND HAS BEEN VARY SLUGGISH WHILE DRIVING, ESPECIALLY UP HILLS. I AM WORRIED FOR MY SAFETY THAT THIS WILL HAPPEN AGAIN WHILE I AM DRIVING. *TR

IT SADDENS ME TO WRITE THIS LETTER CONCERNING THE POOR SERVICE I RECEIVED ON MY 2006 JEEP COMMANDER AT ONE OF YOUR DEALERSHIPS. I PURCHASED THE CAR LAST NOVEMBER IN MANASSAS, VA, AND THE CAR RAN GREAT UP UNTIL ABOUT A MONTH AGO, WHEN ALL OF THE INDICATOR LIGHTS WOULD COME ON AND THEN THE CAR WOULD ABRUPTLY SHUT-OFF. THIS BEHAVIOR WENT ON FOR ABOUT A WEEK AND THEN I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER (DARCARS CHRYSLER JEEP DODGE OF NEW CARROLLTON) LOCATED AT X YOUR JEEP SERVICE CENTER DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM TO BE THE PCM ASSEMBLY WHICH COST ABOUT 800.00, AND WAS NOT COVERED BY MY EXTENDED WARRANTY. AFTER NEGOTIATING WITH THE GWC WARRANTY COMPANY, THEY AGREED TO PAY HALF, WHICH WAS 500.00 AND WE PAID THE BALANCE OF 577.00. AFTER AUTHORIZING THE REPAIR, I WAS CALLED ON SATURDAY, AUGUST 17TH TO PICK UP THE VEHICLE. IRONICALLY, WHEN I GOT IN THE VEHICLE, IT WOULDN'T START., SO THE MECHANIC HAD TO GIVE ME A JUMP. AFTER HAVING THE CAR HOME FOR A FEW DAYS, THE PROBLEM RE-APPEARED AGAIN. THE SAME EXACT SYMPTOMS! I CALLED THE JEEP DEALERSHIP AND THE SERVICE CENTER MANAGER, LEO, TOLD ME TO BRING THE CAR BACK. THIS TIME I REQUESTED A RENTAL CAR SO I COULD CONTINUE TO GO TO WORK WHILE THEY DIAGNOSE MY CAR AGAIN. THEY KEPT MY CARE THROUGH THE LABOR DAY HOLIDAY AND INFORMED ME IT WAS MY BATTERY. THIS DOESN'T MAKE SENSE. I NEVER HAD A PROBLEM WITH THE BATTERY UNTIL THEY STARTED WORKING ON THE CAR, SO I HAD TO PAY AN ADDITIONAL 277.00 (INCLUDING CAR RENTAL CHARGES) FOR A NEW BATTERY. I PICKED UP THE CAR YE

HAVING FRONT SEAT BELT ISSUES. THEY BOTH DON'T LOCK PROPERLY. I HAVE TO HOLD DOWN THE RED RELEASE BUTTON TO LOCK THEM AND NOW THE COMPUTER DOES NOT RECONIZE THEM AS BEING LOCKED AND THE SEAT BELT WARNING LIGHT STAYS ON AND IT CHUMES ALL THE TIME AND DOES NOT STOP. IS THERE A RECALL FOR THIS BECAUSE I SEE A LOT OF COMPLAINTS FOR THIS ISSUE. IS THERE AN EASY FIX FOR THIS AND CAN IT BE TURNED OFF. ANY HELP WOULD BE GREATLY APPRIECIATED.

I PURCHASED THE COMMANDER IN SEPTEMBER 2012. IT RAN GREAT FOR A FEW MONTHS AND THEN IT STARTED TO STALL. I REPLACED THE MAPS SENSOR AND TPS SENSOR AND IT'S STILL STALLING. THE STALLING IS AT RANDOM AND HAS HAPPENED MANY TIME WHILE I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY GOING 65+. THAT'S EXTEREMLY DANGEROUS AND THIS ISSUE SHOULD HAVE BEEN RESOLVED BY NOW. DOING RESEARCH ONLINE I KNOW SEE THAT THERE IS THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE WITH THIS VERY SAME ISSUE AND NO ONE HAS SUCCESSFULLY RESOLVED IT. THERE IS AN OBVIOUS DEFECT WITH THIS JEEP AND CHRYSLER NEEDS TO BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE. I BLAME MYSELF FOR NOT DOING ANY PROPER RESEARCH BEFORE PURCHASING. I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER CHRYSLER PRODUCT AGAIN.

THE INTERIOR DOOR HANDLES ARE BROKEN. YOU CANNOT OPEN THE DOORS FROM THE INSIDE. IF INSIDE THE VEHICLE YOU HAVE TO ROLL DOWN THE WINDOW TO OPEN THE DOOR. THE DOORS AND HANDLES HAVE NOT BEEN ABUSED, AND HAVE ONLY BEEN SUBJECTED TO NORMAL EVERYDAY USE.

THE PASSENGER SEAT BELT DOES NOT LATCH. YOU HAVE TO HOLD DOWN THE RED PRESS BUTTON TO LATCH. ONCE LATCHED THE SEAT BELT ALARM CONTINUES TO CHIME LIKE IS DOES NOT RECOGNIZE THE SEAT BELT IS LATCHED. IT'S ANNOYING BUT AT THE SAME TIME CONCERNED IF THE SEAT BELT IS WORKING PROPERLY. AFTER RESEARCHING ON LINE THERE ARE SEVERAL COMPLAINTS AND THIS SHOULD BE CONSIDER A RECALL. *JB

BOUGHT THE VEHICLE IN FEBRUARY, 2 DAYS AFTER I GET IT, THE INSIDE DOOR HANDLE BREAKS AND EVENTUALLY ALL OF THEM HAVE FELL IN. THEY BREAK WITH A BUMP OF A KNEE OR ANYTHING. I HAVE HAD ONE REPLACED AND NOW THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE WITH MY KIDS THEY CANT OPEN THE DOOR FROM THE INSIDE. THESE INSIDE DOOR HANDLES ARE VERY CHEAPLY MADE AND NOT SAFE FOR ANYONE IF THEY HAD TO GET OUT FAST. *JB

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 JEEP COMMANDER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE AND BOTH THE FRONT AND REAR PASSENGER'S SIDE INTERIOR DOOR HANDLES WERE FRACTURED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR DIAGNOSIS. THE TECHNICIAN STATED THAT THE DOOR PANEL WOULD HAVE TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 30,000. *JB

I PURCHASED MY 2006 JEEP COMMANDER IN JULY 2013 8/3/13 I WAS DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY WHEN ALL THE WARNING LIGHTS STARTED FLASHING. THE GAUGES STOP WORKING. HEAD LIGHTS WENT OUT, AC FAN SHUT DOWN, RADIO WENT OFF. EVERYTHING ELECTRICAL SHUT DOWN. THEN IT JUST CAME BACK ON, THEN OFF. IT CONTINUED TO DO THIS UNTIL I SHUT THE CAR OFF AND WAITED FOR A FEW MINUTES. BUT IT STARTED AGAIN AFTER A FEW MINUTES OF DRIVING. I HAVE TAKEN BACK TO DEALER WHERE I PURCHASED IT. THEY HAVE REPLACED THE ECU,AND THE PCU BUT IT'S STILL DOING IT. IT'S BEEN IN OUT OF THE SHOP 4 TIMES SO FAR. THEY HAVE HAD MY CAR LONGER THAN I HAVE. AS OF NOW THEY ARE UNABLE TO DETERMINE WHAT'S WRONG WITH IT. SO I AM PAYING FOR A CAR THAT I CAN'T DRIVE AND I CAN'T GET OUT OF MY LOAN BECAUSE THE CARS NOT WORTH WHAT I PAID FOR IT AND IT'S NOT DRIVABLE!!!!*JB

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 JEEP COMMANDER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY STALLED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A PRIVATE MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS FOUND THAT THE PCM NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER 08V203000 (POWER TRAIN). THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

INTERIOR DOOR HANDLES/CUP ARE MADE WITH BRITTLE RESIN AND FRACTURE EASY. WITH A BROKEN CUP THE HANDLE DANGLES IN THE DOOR MAKING EXIT VERY DIFFICULT WITHOUT EMERGENCY REPAIR. THE REPAIR REQUIRES THE ENTIRE INTERIOR DOOR PANEL TO BE REPLACED AT A COST OF $800 PER DOOR. PRIOR TO WARRANTY EXPIRING ONE DOOR WAS REPAIRED, HOWEVER 2 MORE DOOR HANDLES ARE NOW BROKEN. THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE WITH JEEP PRODUCTS AND SHOULD HAVE TRIGGERED A SAFETY RECALL. *TR

I HAVE JUST PURCHASED THIS USED 2006 JEEP COMMANDER 1 WEEK AGO. THE VEHICLE IS IN GREAT CONDITION, NO PREVIOUS ACCIDENTS, NO ENGINE LIGHTS/ERROR CODES. ON THE 2ND DAY OF OWNING THE JEEP I EXPERIENCED MY FIRST STALL, AND SINCE THEN 4 MORE STALLS. THERE IS NO ENGINE LIGHTS, ERROR CODES, ETC. THE VEHICLE SEEMS TO BE 100% OKAY, HOWEVER THE VEHICLE HAS JUST SHUT OFF 4 TIMES LOSING BRAKES, STEERING, LIGHTS, ETC - WHETHER I AM MOVING OR AT A STOP. AT FIRST I THOUGHT "I MUST HAVE BOUGHT A LEMON" BUT I HAVE BEEN READING THROUGH SEVERAL FORUMS AND BLOGS THAT THERE ARE 100'S IF NOT 1,000'S OF PEOPLE WHO ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUE WITH THEIR 5.7L HEMI COMMANDER, AND SOME OF THE BLOGS DATE BACK TO 2006 WHEN THESE VEHICLES WERE BRAND NEW WITH LESS THAN A THOUSAND MILES ON THEM. ONE PERSON ACTUALLY SUFFERED AN ACCIDENT DUE TO THIS ELECTRICAL ISSUE - LOSING CONTROL OF STEERING AND BRAKES. BECAUSE THEIR IS NO ENGINE CODES OR LIGHTS DEALERSHIPS ARE NOT ASSESSING THE ISSUE AT ALL OR ARE JUST THROWING PARTS AT IT HOPING IT IS FIXED AND CHARGING THE CUSTOMER A BOAT LOAD OF MONEY. SEVERAL PEOPLE HAVE IDENTIFIED THAT THE ISSUE POTENTIALLY RESIDES IN THE PCM AND THE IGNITION COILS, SOME SAY THAT THE COILS PUT OF AN EM INTERFERENCE THAT IS DISRUPTING THE PCM. REGARDLESS - CHRYSLER NEEDS TO GET THIS FIXED SO NO ONE ELSE GETS HURT, OR KILLED. *TR

I WAS 270 MILES AWAY FROM HOME WHEN THE PASSENGER SIDE SEATBELT WOULD NOT LOCK. I BROUGHT IT INTO THE LOCAL JEEP DEALERSHIP TO INQUIRE IF THERE WAS SOME EASY FIX OR IF THEY HAD A PART ON HAND. THEY INFORMED ME THAT THEY COULD IN FACT HAVE THE PART THE FOLLOWING DAY. I HAD TO RETURN TO WORK THE NEXT DAY SO THAT WAS NOT GOING TO BE AN OPTION. THE PART I WAS TOLD WOULD BE A LITTLE OVER $300 FOR PARTS AND LABOR. AFTER SOME RESEARCH I DISCOVERED THAT THIS SEEMS TO BE A PROBLEM WITH MY YEAR OF VEHICLE. MY PASSENGER HAD TO RIDE THE WAY HOME IN THE BACK SEAT. NOT EXACTLY IDEAL. CONSIDERING THE FACT THAT THE SEATBELT IS QUITE POSSIBLY THE MOST EFFECTIVE SAFETY DEVICE OF ANY VEHICLE I CAN NOT IMAGINE JEEP NOT PUTTING OUT A RECALL FOR THE SAFETY OF ITS CONSUMERS. I UNDERSTAND THE CONCEPT OF WARRANTY ON A VEHICLES ENGINE, BUT A SEATBELT IS NOT SOMETHING I WOULD THINK NEEDS REPLACEMENT. NOT EVERYONE HAS MONEY TO PAY FOR THIS FIX, NOR SHOULD THEY BE ASKED TO PAY FOR THIS SERIOUS DEFECT THAT COULD BE THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN LIFE AND DEATH. I LOVE MY VEHICLE I JUST EXPECT MORE CONCERN FROM THE COMPANY THAT MADE IT. *TR
