I OWN A JEEP COMMANDER 2006 5.7 LITER ENGINE. I HAVE CONTACTED CHRYSLER ABOUT A STALLING PROBLEM AND THEY TELL ME THAT IT DOES NOT REGISTER IN THE COMPUTER AND THEY HAVE NO IDEA WHAT IS WRONG. THIS TRUCK STALLS ABOUT 4 TIMES A WEEK IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC. BEING THAT I HAVE A TODDLER AND A BABY I AM NOT SAFE IN THIS VEHICLE AND NO ONE SEEMS TO CARE. IT WILL JUST COMPLETELY TURN OFF AND I LOSE ALL STEERING. PLEASE HELP!! *TR

2006 JEEP COMMANDER STALLED WHILE DRIVING 75 ON THE HIGHWAY. *TR

ON AT LEAST TEN DIFFERENT OCCASIONS THE 2006 JEEP COMMANDER HAS STALLED AT SPEEDS RANGING FROM 15 TO 70 MILES PER HOUR. POWER IS SHUT OFF COMPLETELY LEADING TO THE LOSS OF ALL FUNCTIONALITY. IF THE STEERING WHEEL IS TURNED SLIGHTLY, THE WHEEL LOCKS, LEAVING THE VEHICLE IN A SITUATION WHERE IT HAS TO COAST TO A STOP. THIS IS A TERRIFYING EXPERIENCE WITH SMALL CHILDREN IN THE VEHICLE. ACCIDENTS HAVE NEARLY OCCURRED AS A RESULT OF THIS HAPPENING. THERE HAVE BEEN SEVEN OCCASIONS WHEN THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN REPORTED TO THE LOCAL DEALER WITH NOTHING ACCOMPLISHED TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM. THE DEALER BLAMES THE OPERATORS OF THE VEHICLE FOR HITTING THE KEY WITH THEIR KNEE. THIS IS NOT THE CAUSE OF THE PROBLEM AS IT OCCURS WHEN THE DRIVER'S KNEE IS NOWHERE NEAR THE KEY. THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT APPARENTLY CAN NOT DUPLICATE THIS PROBLEM WHEN THEY SERVICE THE VEHICLE FOR SOME REASON THOUGH IT IS A VERY REAL ISSUE FOR MY FAMILY. *TR

I BROUGHT MY JEEP INTO BE LOOKED AT BECAUSE IT STALLED ON ME WHEN I WAS DRIVING AND LOST POWER. LUCKILY I AM OKAY AND IT RESTART RIGHT AWAY. DEALER SHIP LOOKED AT IT AND FOUND "NOTHING" WRONG WITH IT. I AM SCARED TO DRIVE IT ESPECIALLY WHEN I HAVE TO DRIVE ON THE INTERSTATE TO WORK. I WISH THEY WOULD DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS. ITS SO RIDICULOUS. *TR

SOON AFTER I PURCHASE MY 2006 JEEP COMMANDER SPORT 4X4 (5 SPEED)... I BEGAN TO DO SOME RESEARCH ON THIS VEHICLE (I SHOULD HAVE DONE THIS PRIOR TO THE PURCHASE)... I WAS GOING THROUGH THIS COMPLAINT DATABASE AND I WAS ALARMED TO READ THAT THIS VEHICLE HAS A HISTORY OF STALLING. WELL, IT FINALLY HAPPENED TO ME ON 11/4/2007 (WITH 11,600 EXACT MILEAGE) DRIVING HOME FROM SHOPPING WITH MY FAMILY. THE COMMANDER STALLED OUT ON DURING THE HIGHWAY MERGED. LUCKILY, I WAS IN THE FAR RIGHT LANE TO JUMP OFF THE HIGHWAY IMMEDIATELY. THE POWER LOSS THAT I EXPERIENCE WAS ONLY WITH ABILITY TO MOVE THE VEHICLE. MY DASHBOARDS LIGHTS, HEADLIGHTS, RADIO; BREAKS WERE FULLY OPERATIONAL (THANKFULLY). NO ACCIDENTS, NO INJURIES EXCEPT MY CHILDREN ARE NOW AFRAID OF BEING INSIDE OF THE COMMANDER. TO BE HONEST, SO AM I. THERE HAVE BEEN NUMEROUS REPORTS ON WHAT IS OCCURRING?.. EVERYTHING FROM DOWNLOADING AN UPGRADED TO DEBRIS IN THE HOSE. EITHER WAY, CHRYSLER NEEDS TO ADDRESS THIS IMMEDIATELY; THE POTENTIAL OF DEATH IS VERY REALISTIC. *TR

THREE TIMES I EXPERIENCED POWER LOSS WHILE DRIVING MY 2006 JEEP COMMANDER, 4X4. THE FIRST TIME -- I TURNED THE IGNITION TO START THE JEEP AND IT DIDN'T KICK OVER RIGHT AWAY, ALL THE WARNING LIGHTS LIT UP SIMULTANEOUSLY, THEN RANDOMLY AND AT VARYING LENGTHS OF TIME WENT OUT. THE DASH LIGHTS AND THE RADIO WERE TURNING ON AND OFF. WEIRD, I SHUT IT OFF AND WAITED ABOUT 2 MINUTES. I STARTED IT AGAIN AND EVERYTHING SEEMED OK (EXCEPT THE AIRBAG LIGHT REMAINED ON). AS I WAS PULLING OUT OF THE PARKING LOT ONTO THE MAIN ROAD, THE DASHBOARD LIT UP AGAIN, FLASHING ON AND OFF AS BEFORE, AND THEN A CLUNK-JERK -- NO POWER STEERING, NO POWER BRAKES, LIGHTS STILL GOING CRAZY. LUCKILY I WAS ABLE TO COAST INTO ANOTHER PARKING LOT, STOP SAFELY. I TURNED IT OFF, WAITED 5 MINUTES, THEN IT STARTED AND I MADE IT HOME WITHOUT INCIDENT (AIRBAG LIGHT STILL LINGERED FOR A WHILE). TWO AND A HALF WEEKS LATER, AS I WAS LEAVING MY HOUSE (SO I WAS GOING SLOW) THE DASHBOARD STARTED THE SAME FLASHING ROUTINE AS BEFORE. I SHUT THE JEEP OFF IMMEDIATELY, WAITED ABOUT 2 MINUTES AND RE-STARTED. NO FURTHER PROBLEMS BUT THE AIRBAG LIGHT LINGERED A FEW MINUTES AS BEFORE. THE THIRD INCIDENT (OCTOBER 29TH), I WAS DRIVING ALONG THE MAIN ROAD ABOUT 40 MHP ON A STRAIGHT SMOOTH SECTION WHEN ALL THE WARNING LIGHTS BEGAN FLASHING ON/OFF (OH, NO!). AT THE FIRST OPPORTUNITY I TURNED OFF THE MAIN ROAD AND KEPT DRIVING SLOWLY TO MY GARAGE. I MADE IT THERE WITHOUT LOSING THE STEERING/BRAKES, LIGHTS FLASHING THE WHOLE WAY. I AM SCA

PULSATING OF BRAKES WHEN APPLIED TO COME TO A STOP. ASKED DEALERSHIP 2X TO CHECK. FIRST TIME WAS TOLD THEY WERE FINE, SECOND TIME THEY TOOK OUT FOR A TEST DRIVE AND EXPERIENCED THE PULSING. INSPECTED THE BRAKE SYSTEM AND FOUND THAT ALL 4 ROTORS WERE NOT WORN DOWN, BUT WERE WARPED. THEY EXPLAINED THAT IT WAS MOST LIKELY CAUSED BY BEING HEATED UP BY FREQUENTLY STOPPING SHORT. I HAVE BEEN DRIVING FOR 30 YEARS AND HAVE HAD MANY VEHICLES AND NEVER AN ISSUE WITH REPLACING ROTORS AFTER 2 YEARS, NOT DUE TO THE LIFE OF THE ROTOR, BUT WARPING. I HAVE BEEN IN THE SAME JOB FOR 23 YEARS AND DRIVING THE SAME ROADS. I DO NOT FREQUENTLY STOP SHORT OR RIDE MY BRAKES. IF ANYTHING I UTILIZE THE FEATURE OF DOWN SHIFTING AS NOT TO APPLY THE BRAKES AS OFTEN. I WAS TOLD THAT WHEN I BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE THERE SHOULD NOT BE ANY ISSUES BECAUSE IT WAS A FIRST MODEL BECAUSE IT WAS BASED ON THE JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. I HAVE NOTICED THAT THERE WAS A CLASS ACTION SUIT REGARDING THE BRAKES ON THAT MODEL. *TR

WHILE DRIVING MY JEEP COMMANDER SHUTS OFF WITHOUT WARNING. THE JEEP BECOMES INOPERABLE, NO POWER STEERING OR BRAKES. IT HAS HAPPENED AT LEAST A HALF DOZEN TIMES. I INITIALLY TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALER, BUT THEY SAID THEY COULD NOT FIND THE PROBLEM. IT IS VERY DANGEROUS! *TR

MY 2006 JEEP COMMANDER STALLS ON ME WHY DRIVING. IT HAS BEEN DOING THIS FOR 8 MONTHS NOW. NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE ABOUT THIS PROBLEM. THE CAR WILL SHUT DOWN ON YOU WHEN DRIVING. PROMPTING YOU TO HAVE TO BRING THE CAR TO A COMPLETE STOP TO RESTART. I HAVE BEEN DEALING FOR MONTHS ON THIS ISSUE AND NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE. I AM I N A RENTAL CAR 90% OF THE TIME. CHRYSLER NEEDS TO GET OFF THEIR ASS AND DOING SOMETHING BEFORE SOMEONE IS SERIOUSLY HURT. I AM INTERSTED AND FILEING A CLASS ACTION SUIT AGAINST THEM. IF YOU ARE INTERSTED AND YOUR JEEP IS STALLING TOO. PLEASE CONTACT ME. *TR

THIS HAS HAPPENED ON MORE THEN ONE OCCASION. THE 1ST COUPLE OF TIMES THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS ONE, IT TOOK 2 TIMES THERE AND THEY REPLACED THE MODULAR. AFTER THAT THAT WAS TAKEN CARE OF BUT THEN WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE STREET ALL THE INSTRUMENT LIGHTS ON THE PANEL CAME ON AND ALL GAUGES WENT TO ZERO. THE SECOND TIME THIS HAPPENED, I WAS DRIVING TO WORK GOING ABOUT 35 MILES PER HOUR, AGAIN ALL LIGHTS ON INSTRUMENT PANEL CAME ON AND THE JEEP STALLED CAUSING MY WHEELS TO LOCK AND MY STEERING TO NOT WORK, I HAD TO SKID OFF THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, THANK GOODNESS NO ONE WAS BEHIND ME. I STARTED MY JEEP A COUPLE MINUTES LATER AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND ALL GAUGES WERE STILL AT ZERO AND FRIGHTENED, I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE HOME THROUGH THE NEIGHBORHOOD. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP WHICH WAS THERE A DAY BECAUSE THEY KNEW I WAS FURIOUS AT THIS TIME BECAUSE I COULD HAVE CAUSED AN ACCIDENT CAUSING INJURY TO MYSELF AND OTHER DRIVERS, I THEN GOT IT BACK AND WAS DRIVING HOME AGAIN THANK GOODNESS NOT ON THE FREEWAY AND IT HAPPENED AGAIN. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALER WHO TOLD ME THERE IS NOTHING THAT CAN BE DONE BECAUSE NOTHING IS BEING DETECTED ON THE CHIP SO THEY CAN NOT FIX IT, THEY ADVISED ME TO JUST DRIVE IT AND KEEP A LOG OF THE PATTERN TO HELP THEM DETERMINE THE CAUSE. I CALLED THE SERVICE MANAGER AND TOLD HIM THAT I HAVE A HUGE PROBLEM WITH THEM ASKING ME TO DRIVE THIS FOR A PATTERN AND CAUSING A POTENTIONALLY FATAL ACCIDENT TO GET A PATTERN WHICH THEY ALREADY KNOW HAD DONE THIS BEFORE,

I HAVE EXPERIENCED 3 SEPARATE ACCIDENTS ON MAY 31 2006, AUGUST 2 2006 AND SEPTEMBER 20 2007 WITH THE 2006 JEEP COMMANDER LIMITED. I HAD JUST LEFT THE STOP SIGN IN THE FIRST ACCIDENT AND PROCEEDED INTO THE INTERSECTION OF A 2-WAY STOP. MY VEHICLE STALLED AND I COLLIDED WITH A GRAND AM. THE DRIVER OF THAT VEHICLE HAS FILED A CIVIL ACTION AGAINST ME IN WHICH METLIFE AUTO & CASUALTY HAS HIRED AN ATTORNEY TO REPRESENT ME. I WAS FOUND TO BE PRIMARILY AT FAULT FOR THIS ACCIDENT. THE LAWSUIT IS CLAIMING I WAS NEGLIGENT. THE SECOND ACCIDENT OCCURRED WHEN I WAS TURNING AROUND TO GET A BETTER "SHOT" INTO A PRIVATE DRIVEWAY. I SUCCESSFULLY TURNED AROUND IN A PARKING AREA ACROSS THE STREET FROM THE DRIVEWAY AND I WAS IN THE PROCESS OF ENTERING THE DRIVEWAY WHEN MY VEHICLE STALLED AND MY DRIVER SIDE FRONT BUMPER WAS STRUCK, BREAKING THE TIE ROD. THE POLICE AND THE OTHER PARTY'S INSURANCE FOUND THE OTHER DRIVER WHO WAS 93 TO BE AT FAULT FOR THE ACCIDENT. THE THIRD ACCIDENT OCCURRED ON SEPTEMBER 20 2007, WHEN I WAS ATTEMPTING TO TURN LEFT ON A GREEN LIGHT FROM A TURN LANE. I WAS IN THE PROCESS OF TURNING LEFT WHEN ANOTHER DRIVER WHO WAS SPEEDING COLLIDED WITH MY VEHICLE WHICH HAD STALLED DURING THE LEFT HAND TURN. THE PASSENGER FRONT BUMPER WAS DAMAGED INCLUDING A BROKEN TIE ROD. THE OTHER DRIVER'S INSURANCE HAS DETERMINED I AM PRIMARILY AT FAULT FOR THAT ACCIDENT. *TR

2006 JEEP COMMANDER V6 IDLES ROUGH WHEN STOPPED AND STARTS TO CUT OUT AS IF IT IS GOING TO STALL. *JB

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 JEEP COMMANDER. WHILE DRIVING 40 MPH, THE ENGINE STALLED AND THE POWER STEERING AND BRAKES FAILED WITHOUT WARNING. THE FAILURE LASTS FOR ONLY FIVE SECONDS. THE FAILURE ALSO OCCURRED WHILE TRAVELING 20 MPH THROUGH A RED LIGHT. THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT STOP UNTIL IT TURNED ITSELF BACK ON.

I OWN A 2006 JEEP COMMANDER. IT STARTED STALLING ON ME IN FEB OR 07. SINCE THEN IT HAS STALLED 20 TIMES OR MORE. IT WAS AT THE DEALERS MANY OF TIME WITH ME IN A RENTAL CAR FOR PERIODS OF OVER 2 MONTHS AT A TIME. THEY HAVE YET TO FIND OUT WHAT THE PROBLEM IS WITH MY JEEP. IT WAS LABELED A LEMON BY CHRYSLER BUT THEY WANTED TO CHARGE ME AN OUTRAGEOUS AMOUNT FOR USE ON THE CAR. I DON'T FEEL FOR SAFETY REASONS THIS CAR SHOULD EVEN BE ON THE ROAD. I HAVE TOLD CHRYSLER IF ANYTHING HAPPENS TO ME OR MY CHILDREN IN THE CAR WHEN IT STALLS THEY ARE 100% LIABLE. THIS CAR IS UNSAFE. IT WILL STALL JUST DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. I HAVE HAD MY STALL WITH NO WARNING ON ARE LOCAL HWY HERE I90. VERY UNSAFE THIS AUTO IS. I WANT MY MONEY BACK OR A REPLACEMENT WITH OUT ALL THE PENALTIES. THIS IS JUST STUPID I HAVE BEEN DEALING WITH THIS SINCE FEB 07 AND I AM TIRED OF IT. I BOUGHT THE CAR TO DRIVE NOT HAVE IT IN THE SHOP BE MAKING THE PAYMENTS ON IT AND WHEN I DO HAVE IT FEAR FOR MY FAMILY'S AND MY OWN SAFETY IN THE CAR. *JB

SINCE THE BEGINNING OF OWNERSHIP, THIS CAR HAS STALLED MANY TIMES (AS WELL AS OTHER VARIOUS AND ODD ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS.) MANY TIMES I CAN TURN THE CAR OFF AND ON AND IT WILL RESTART. THIS DOES HAPPEN IN PARKING LOTS AND HIGHWAY SPEEDS AS WELL. I HAVE ALSO LOST POWER STEERING AND BRAKES WHEN IN PARKING LOTS AT A VERY SLOW ACCELERATION SPEED. I HAVE ALSO HAD AIR BAG WARNING LIGHTS GO ON AND STAY ON THEN RANDOMLY SHUT OFF. THE DEALER HAS TRIED TO HELP RESOLVE BUT IS LIMITED BY CHRYSLER'S ABILITY TO RECOGNIZE THAT THERE IS A PROBLEM. IF THERE IS NO CODE IN THE CARS COMPUTER, THERE IS NO PROBLEM AND CAN'T BE DUPLICATED. IF THE PROBLEM CAN'T BE DUPLICATED, THERE IS NO REPAIR. BUT IT KEEPS HAPPENING OVER AND OVER. I HAVE FILED A COMPLAINT WITH CHRYSLER WITH NO RESOLVE. THE DEALERSHIP HAS HAD MY CAR AND DROVE IT FOR 3 WEEKS TO TRY TO DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. SINCE IT IS SO RANDOM AND THEY JUST DIDN'T GET ENOUGH TIME/MILES IN, THE PROBLEM DIDN'T HAPPEN. IT STALLED AGAIN ABOUT 3 WEEKS AFTER THAT PULLING OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY. THERE HAS BEEN NO REPAIR, BECAUSE CHRYSLER SAYS THERE IS NO PROBLEM. I HAVE BEEN IN THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION WITH A 15 YEAR OLD ON A PERMIT DRIVING WITH ONCOMING TRAFFIC. I HAVE HAD THIS CAR SINCE MARCH 2006 AND THIS HAS BEEN OCCURRING MANY TIMES REPEATEDLY SINCE THEN. NOT ALL HAVE BEEN DOCUMENTED AND BECAUSE IT OCCASIONALLY HAPPENS ON WEEKENDS OR HOLIDAYS, I HAVE NO ABILITY TO GET IT IN TO A DEALERSHIP. IN ORDER FOR THEM TO BE ABLE TO READ A CODE, I WOULD HAVE T

WHILE STOPPED AT A STOP LIGHT ON 4 DIFFERENT OCCASIONS OVER A PERIOD OF 2 WEEKS, THE VEHICLE LOST TOTAL ELECTRICAL POWER AND ENGINE SHUT OFF BY IT SELF. THE 2006 JEEP COMMANDER RESTARTED IMMEDIATELY AFTER PUTTING IN PARK AND TURNING IGNITION. THE JEEP WAS BROUGHT INTO THE JEEP SERVICE CENTER ON 9-11-2007. SERVICE TECH SAID THAT THEY HAD SIMILAR PROBLEM WITH ANOTHER JEEP COMMANDER IN THE SERVICE CENTER AND COULD NOT FIGURE OUT THE PROBLEM. PER THE SERVICE TECH NO ERROR MESSAGES WERE REPORTED. THEY CALLED CHRYSLER WHO TOLD THEM TO DO A PCM REFLASH INSTALL PER STAR. THE CAR HAS STALLED AGAIN SINCE THEN. *JB

MY WIFE'S JEEP COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN WHILE GOING 45 MILES AN HOUR AND SHE WENT OFF OF THE ROAD. THIS HAPPENED LESS THAN A MONTH AFTER WE TOOK IT TO THE JEEP DEALERSHIP TO HAVE FIXED. THEY SAID AS IM SURE EVERY ONE WHO HAS PUT IN AN APPARENT USELESS COMPLAINT THAT " NO ERRORS ARE COMING UP AND THERE DOESN'T SEEM TO BE A PROBLEM. " WHAT BOTHERS ME THE MOST ABOUT THIS IS THAT JEEP HAS NOT ISSUED ANY STATEMENT AFTER THE COUNTLESS COMPLAINTS KEEP FILING IN. JUST BECAUSE NO ERROR MESSAGE IS COMING UP WHEN IT IS PLUGGED IN DOESN'T MEAN THESE HUNDREDS OF JEEP COMMANDER OWNERS ARE LYING ABOUT WHAT IS HAPPENING. I HAVE ANOTHER APPOINTMENT TOMORROW. THIS EXERCISE IS GETTING OLD . IT SHOULD NOT HAVE TO TAKE A DEATH FROM SOME ONE DRIVING THESE VEHICLES TO HAVE CHRYSLER DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS . I HAVE READ MANY OF THESE COMPLAINTS THAT OTHER CONCERNED DRIVERS HAVE PUT IN. APPARENTLY THIS SITE DOESN'T GET CHRSLERS ATTENTION . *JB

WHILE DRIVING VEHICLE THE ENGINE SHUTS OFF AND THE RESULTED POWER FAILURE MAKES IT DANGEROUS TO CONTROL THE VEHICLE AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. THIS HAS HAPPENED THREE TIMES AND THE DEALERS SERVICE DEPARTMENT COULD NOT FIND A PROBLEM OR REASON FOR THIS. *TR

WINDSHIELD IN THE 06 JEEP COMMANDER IS WEAK, AND SEEMS TO BE A TARGET FOR ROCKS AND BUGS. I HAVE OWNED THE CAR FOR 3 MONTHS AND HAVE TO REPLACE THE WINDSHIELD DUE TO EXTREME CRACKS FROM 2 SEPARATE ROCKS HITTING IT. *JB

MY HUSBAND AND I FINANCED A USED 2006 JEEP COMMANDER WHILE HE WAS HOME ON 2 WEEKS OF LEAVE FROM AND 18 MONTH TOUR IN AFGHANISTAN. ABOUT A WEEK AFTER WE TOOK THE CAR HOME IT STALLED OUT FOR THE FIRST TIME. A WEEK AFTER THAT IT DID IT AGAIN AND WE IMMEDIATELY PULLED OFF THE ROAD AND TOOK IT TO THE CLOSEST DEALER WHICH WAS LUCKILY LESS THAN 2 MILES DOWN THE ROAD. HE HOOKED IT UP TO DIAGNOSTICS AND TOLD US SOMETHING ABOUT THE COMPUTER RECORDING A FREAK READING OF BAROMETRIC PRESSURE WHICH IS WHAT MADE THE CAR SHUT OFF AND THAT IT SHOULDN'T HAPPEN AGAIN. AFTER MY HUSBAND RETURNED TO AFGHANISTAN TO FIGHT TERRORISM FOR THE US ARMY I WAS DRIVING HOME AFTER DARK FROM OUT OF TOWN AND MY HEADLIGHTS STARTED TO FLICKER...THE FREQUENCY OF THIS KEPT INCREASING AND EACH TIME THIS HAPPENED THE INTERIOR LIGHTS WOULD ALSO FLICKER AND IT BECAME INCREASINGLY DIFFICULT TO HAVE THE LIGHTS COME BACK ON. LUCKILY I GOT HOME BEFORE THEY QUIT WORKING COMPLETELY. TODAY, I WAS AT THE END OF A DRIVE TO VISIT FAMILY AND THE CAR STALLED FOR THE THIRD TIME IN LESS THAN A MONTH! I LOST BRAKES, STEERING, LIGHTS, AC, AND RADIO. TRAFFIC WAS HEAVY AND I NARROWLY AVOIDED AN ACCIDENT!!!! AFTER ABOUT A MINUTE, I WAS ABLE TO POP THE CAR INTO NEUTRAL AND GET IT STARTED AGAIN. THANK GOD MY TWO CHILDREN WERE NOT IN THE CAR! I GOT TO MY RELATIVES HOUSE AND BEGAN RESEARCHING THIS PROBLEM AND FOUND NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ON THE INTERNET, SOMETHING WE WERE NOT MADE AWARE OF WHEN BUYING THE VEHICLE. THE FACT THAT THIS HAS HAPPEN

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 JEEP COMMANDER. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 35MPH AND ENGAGING THE BRAKE PEDAL INTERMITTENTLY, THE ENGINE STALLED. THE POWER STEERING AND POWER BRAKES ALSO FAILED AND THE RADIO CONTINUED TO PLAY. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN AT THE DEALER FOR 28 DAYS TO DIAGNOSE THE FAILURE. THERE WERE NO WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED DURING OR AFTER THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE VEHICLE RESTARTS IMMEDIATELY. SPEED WAS NOT A FACTOR WHEN THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 22,000.

SINCE PURCHASING OUR COMMANDER IN EARLY 2006, WE HAVE EXPERIENCED NO LESS THAN 12 INCIDENTS OF STALLING. THE VEHICLE STALLED AT A COMPLETE STOP, AS WELL AS WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 50-65 MPM. WE ALSO HAVE EXPERIENCED EXTREMELY SLUGGISH ACCELERATION AT HIGHWAY SPEED, BOTH SITUATIONS PLACING US AT IN DANGER OF A COLLISION. FINALLY, WHEN CONDUCTING HARD TURNS (SIMILAR TO A U-TURN), THE ENGINE WILL SPUTTER AND BARELY ACCELERATE IN TRAFFIC SITUATIONS, SEVERAL TIMES NEARLY RESULTING IN A COLLISION. *JB

MY 2006 JEEP COMMANDER V8 HAS STALLED 4 TIMES SINCE BUYING IT IN APRIL OF 2007. THE FIRST TIME WAS WHEN I WAS BACKING UP IN REVERSE IN MY DRIVEWAY.

THE THIRD TIME WAS IN AUGUST, I HAD BACKED UP IN MY PARKING LOT AT WORK PUT THE JEEP IN DRIVE AND WAS GOING ABOUT 15 MPH AND THE JEEP STALLED. THE LAST TIME WAS AUGUST 28, 2007, I WAS MAKING A LEFT HAND TURN INTO MCDONALD'S WITH MY 8 MONTH OLD, 6+7 YEAR OLD CHILDREN AS WELL AS BEING 5 MONTHS PREGNANT, THE JEEP STALLED, I LOST MY BRAKES AND POWER STEERING WITH ONCOMING TRAFFIC HEADING TOWARDS ME. IT TOOK I MY STRENGTH TO TURN THE WHEEL TP GET OUT OF THE ROAD. I HAVE HAD THE JEEP TO THE DEALERSHIP TO HAVE THIS LOOKED AT 3 TIMES. THE LAST IN AUGUST BEFORE THE 4TH EPISODE. THEY HAD MY JEEP FOR 4 DAYS AND COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT. I HAVE CALLED JEEP AND MADE A COMPLAINT. THEIR RESPONSE WAS TO TAKE IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP. I AM VERY FRUSTRATED AND FEEL UNSAFE WITH MY CHILDREN IN THIS VEHICLE AND NO ONE SEEMS TO CARE OR WANT TO HELP. AFTER LOOKING AT THIS LIST OF COMPLAINTS ON THIS WEBSITE ON 2006 JEEP COMMANDERS STALLING, SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE. *JB

I HAVE A 2006 JEEP COMMANDER WITH ONLY 13,000 MILES ON IT AND IT HAS STALLED TWICE WHILE DRIVING. DEALERSHIP HAS SEEN IT ONCE AND RELOADED COMPUTER SOFTWARE TO SEE IF THAT FIXES THE PROBLEM. THE SECOND TIME OCCURRED AFTER THAT SO IT'S BEING TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR REVIEW. I AM NERVOUS ABOUT THE SAFETY OF MY FAMILY/CHILDREN. *JB

I PURCHASED MY 2006 JEEP COMMANDER IN OCT. 2005. FIRST, MY BRAKES WOULD SHIMMY WHEN I CAME TO A STOP. THEN, BEGINNING SEPT. 13, I NOTICED MY DASH BOARD LIGHTS FLASHING ON AND OFF AS I ACCELERATED AFTER A STOP AND DROVE UPHILL. NOW, IT DOESN'T MATTER IF I AM DRIVIG THE VEHICLE UPHILL OR ON LEVEL AREAS ON THE HIGHWAYS AND FREEWAYS. IT GETS WORSE AND WORSE EVERYDAY. ON MONDAY, SEPT. 17, I CALLED TONY MCCUNE CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP AND ARRANGED FOR AN APPOINTMENT TO BRING MY VEHICLE FOR A CHECK UP. THE DEALERSHIP WANTED TO CHARGE ME $190 TO ANALYZE IT. THEN, THEY CALLED ME IN THE AFTERNOON AND SAID IT WOULD COST ME OVER $400 TO REPAIR THE JEEP EVENTHOUGH THEY STILL DID NOT KNOW WHAT WAS WRONG WITH MY VEHICLE. BEFORE I WENT IN THE NEXT DAY, I SURFED THE INTERNET AND LEARNED THAT CHRYSLER WAS RECALLING MY MODEL FOR THE CONDITIONS I EXPLAINED ABOVE (MALFUNCTION OF THE COMPUTER SYSTEM, WHICH AFFECTS THE BRAKING SYSTEM). THE DEALERSHIP INSISTED THAT MY JEEP WAS NOT PART OF THE RECALL. CALLING CHRYSLER IN OAK RIDGE, TN, I EXPERIENCED THE WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE FROM A REPRESENTATIVE WHO INSISTED THERE WAS NO RECALL IN PLACE FOR MY MODEL. THE DEALERSHIP CALLED ME BACK AND SAID THAT CHRYSLER WOULD EXTEND MY WARRANTY (SINCE IT HAD ALREADY EXPIRED) IF I WOULD PAY $100 DEDUCTIBLE. ATER I PICKED UP MY JEEP AND DRIVE OFF, I NOTICED THE SAME THING HAPPENING AS I DROVE ONTO THE FREEWAY. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND EXPLAINED THE SITUATION. THE REPRESENTATIVE (BRUCE) INSISTED THAT THE IT SHOULD HAVE B

I PURCHASED MY 2006 JEEP COMMANDER IN OCT. 2005 FROM MCCUNE CHRYSLER JEEP IN NATIONAL CITY, CA. INITIALLY, I STARTED NOTICING MY BRAKES SHIMMYING AS I CAME TO A STOP. I REPORTED TO MY DEALERSHIP A FEW TIMES BUT NO GOOD CAME OUT OF IT. THEN, LAST THURSDAY, SEPT. 13, I NOTICED MY DASHBOARD LIGHTS (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, BRAKES AND TRANSMISSION LIGHTS) FLASHING ON AND OFF AS I ACCELERATED FROM A STOP AND HEADED UPHILL. IT FELT AS THOUGH THE JEEP WANTED TO STOP AND GO AT THE SAME TIME. I REPORTED IT TO MY DEALERSHIP AND BROUGHT IN THE VEHICLE THE NEXT WEEK. THE DEALERSHIP QUOTED ME $190 TO ANALYZE IT (SINCE MY JEEP WAS ABOUT 8,000 MILES BEYOND THE WARRANTY PERIOD). THEN, THEY TOLD ME THAT IT WOULD COST ME OVER $400 TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE EVEN THOUGH THEY DID NOT KNOW WHAT WAS WRONG WITH IT. I BEGAN TO RESEARCH THE INTERNET ABOUT RECALLS ON THIS MAKE AND MODEL AND FOUND THAT CHRYSLER HAD ISSUED A RECALL ON FRIDAY, SEPT. 14, 2007. I PRINTED THE ARTICLE AND BROUGHT IT TO MY SERVICE REP AT MCCUNE. THE REP INSISTED THAT IT WAS NOT MY PROBLEM AND THAT HIS DEALERSHIP HAD NOT HEARD OF A RECALL ON MY MAKE AND MODEL. SO, I CALLED CHRYSLER'S CUSTOMER SERVICE DEPARTMENT IN OAK RIDGE, TN. THE REPRESENTATIVES THERE INSISTED THAT THERE WAS NO RECALL. FRUSTRATED, I ACCEPTED THE DEALERSHIPS OFFER TO REPAIR MY VEHICLE. THEY QUOTED ME A $100 DEDUCTIBLE TO PLACE THE VEHICLE UNDER WARRANTY. AS I DROVE OFF, THE SAME THING HAPPENED ALL OVER AGAIN. I CALLED THE SERVICE ADVISOR AND EXPLAINED WHAT HAD HAPPENED

I HAVE A 2006 JEEP COMMANDER AND I AM HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE BRAKE SYSTEM. EVERYTIME I TURN MY VEHICLES, AND SWITCH PEDALS FROM BRAKE TO GAS, MY CAR JUST LOCKS IN PLACE. THIS HAS HAPPENED TWICE AS I AM GOING INTO A MAJOR INTERSECTIONS AND I ALMOST WAS INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT (REAR ENDED) BECAUSE OF THIS. BASICALLY THE VEHICLE HAS THE SAME PROBLEMS DESCRIBED ON THE CHRYSLER RECALL PRESS RELEASE BUT ON THEIR WEBSITE I CHECKED THE VIN NUMBER AND IT SAYS THAT THERE ARE NO RECALLS FOR MY VEHICLE. *TR
