I WAS ABLE TO GET IT HOME THE NEXT DAY BY QUICKLY TURNING THE KEY FROM THE "OFF" POSITION TO "START" RAPIDLY. IT STARTED AFTER 15-20 TRIES OF THIS MOVEMENT. NOW THAT IT IS HOME, I WAS ABLE TO START IT ONCE EACH DAY SINCE THE INITIAL ISSUE. BUT NOW, I AM UNABLE TO GET IT STARTED AGAIN. COULD BE THE WCM, STARTER HARNESS, SENTRY KEY MODULE, ETC. REGARDLESS, IT IS A WIDESPREAD ISSUE AMONGST JEEP COMMANDER OWNERS AND SOMETHING I THINK JEEP NEEDS TO BE MADE AWARE OF.

IT IS THE SECOND TIME THIS HAPPENS TO US WHEN ON A HIGHWAY. THE FIRST TIME MY HUSBAND WAS DRIVING AND WE HAVE OUR CHILD WITH US. WE THOUGHT IT WAS A PART OF THE LATEST RECALL WE RECEIVED IN THE MAIL REGARDING THE KEY IGNITION. THIS TIME I WAS DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY, GOING ABOUT 60-65 MPH WHEN THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, I STARTING LOSING POWER, TACHOMETER STARTING GOING DOWN AND THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS COMPLETELY UNRESPONSIVE AND SIGNIFICANTLY HARD TO PUSH DOWN ON IT, THE SPEED CONTINUED TO GO DOWN AS I WAS TRYING TO GET TO THE SHOULDER AS FAST AS I COULD BUT WITH AN UNRESPONSIVE ENGINE IT WAS VERY DIFFICULT. IT WAS ALSO DIFFICULT TO MOVE THE STEERING WHEEL AS THIS GOT HARDEN. I MANAGED TO PULL OVER ON THE SHOULDER AND HAD TO TURN THE ENGINE OFF. AFTER WAITING 10-15 MINUTES, I TURNED THE ENGINE BACK ON AND WAS ABLE TO GET TO MY DESTINATION WHICH WAS NOT FAR FROM WHERE I HAD TO PULL OVER. THE ENGINE LIGHT IS STILL ON AND I'M AFRAID THIS WOULD HAPPEN AGAIN NEXT TIME I DRIVE MY VEHICLE WHICH IS EVERY DAY. THIS WAS NOT A PLEASANT EXPERIENCE AT ALL AND IT IS VERY FRIGHTENING WHEN YOU ARE ON A HIGHWAY AND ALL OF THE SUDDEN HAVE NO CONTROL OF YOUR VEHICLE, IT IS DEFINITELY NOT SAFE AT ALL. THIS JEEP HAS GONE THROUGH ALL THE RECALLS THAT I HAVE GOTTEN IN THE MAIL.

ABOUT 3 WEEKS AGO, I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY WITH MY 3 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER AND MY BOYFRIEND WHEN IT LOST POWER TO THE POINT IT SHUT OFF AGAIN. THANK GOD WE ALL WERE ABLE TO SAFELY MAKE IT OUT THE JEEP WITHOUT BEIMG INJURED. I HAD IT TOWED TO THE REPAIR SHOP WERE I WAS TOLD MY MOTOR LOCKED UP. WHEN I ASKED THE MECHANIC HOW WAS THAT POSSIBLE HE SAID HE HAD NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE THIS HAPPEN BEFORE. IT HAD OIL AND IT WASN'T RUNNING HOT AT ALL. IT NEVER RAN HOT AT ANY POINT ACTUALLY. WHEN HE CHECKED, HE FOUND THE JEEP DIDN'T HAVE ANY COOLANT BUT COULD NOT GIVE REASON TO WHY THIS HAPPENED.
