2008 Jeep Commander complaints

THERE SEEMS TO BE A NATIONWIDE PROBLEM WITH 2008 JEEP COMMANDERS. THE CAR WILL NOT START,OR WILL STALL WHILE DRIVING THAT CAN CAUSE A MAJOR ACCIDENT!!!!! THIS HAS TO DO WITH THE WIN MODULE. IT IS SUCH AN ISSUE THAT THE PART NEEDED HAS BEEN ON BACK ORDER FOR MONTHS!!!!! WHAT IS IT GOING TO TAKE TO TAKE FOR CHRYSLER TO RECALL THIS VEHICLE!! I AM PAYING FOR A CAR THAT I CAN NOT DRIVE!!! SO I HAVE TO PAY FOR A RENTAL CAR AND THIS JEEP!!!! IF NOTHING IS DONE, WILL CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT BE THE NEXT STEP?? PLEASE RESPOND. *TR

WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE IGNITION SWITCH SHUTS OFF WITHOUT WARNING. I HAVE TAKEN THE VEHICLE INTO THE CHRYSLER DEALER AND THEY HAVE REFUSED TO REPLACE THE SWITCH EVEN THOUGH I AM WILLING TO PAY ALL COSTS. THEY SAY THIS IS SUCH A BIG PROBLEM THAT THE SWITCHES ARE BEING RESTRICTED (CANNOT BE REPLACED UNLESS THERE IS CURRENT DANGER TO THE OWNER) BY CHRYSLER. THIS HAPPENS ALL THE TIME AS I WAS DRIVING ON THE EXPRESSWAY AND THE CAR JUST SHUT OFF. THIS HAS HAPPENED APROX. 30 TIMES IN THE LAST 3 MONTHS. *TR

I KNOW NOW THAT IM NOT THE ONLY ONE WITH THIS PROBLEM, MY 2008 JEEP COMMANDER LOOSES POWER AS IM DRIVING AT A REGULAR SPEED. I PRESS THE GAS PEDAL AND DOES NOTHING THEN I PULL OVER TO SIDE OF ROAD TRY AGAIN, AND IT WORKS AGAIN. AFTER THE 5TH TIME I'VE BEEN TAKING IT TO 3 DIFFERENT DIAGNOSE AND REPAIR SHOPS BUT THEY CANT FIND THE PROBLEM BUT IT STILL DOES IT SOMETIMES. I NEVER HAD ANY PROBLEMS WITH IT BEFORE, I TAKE IT TO GET MAINTENCE MY HUSBAND JUST BOUGHT NEW TIRES, NEW BATTERY FOR IT, AND THIS HAPPENS.ALL IM JUST ASKING IS TO PLEASE TRY AND FIND OUT WHAT THE PROBLEM IS AND FIX IT BECAUSE WE HAVE A 3 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER AND EVERY TIME WE GO OUT, SHE GETS SCARED THINKING THAT THE CAR IN BACK OF US IS GOING TO HIT US. PLEASE DONT WAIT UNTIL SOMETHING LIKE THAT HAPPENS. *TR

PARKING ASSISTANT BRAKE LIGHT COMES ON. WHENEVER CAR IS DRIVEN OVER A BUMP LOUD CLANKING NOISE HAPPENS. TOOK CARE TO MUFFLER MAN THINKING IT WAS A BROKEN BRACKET HOWEVER THE MECHANIC SAID BECAUSE OF THE DESIGN OF THE PARKING BRAKE OVER THE CHASSIS IT RUBS AND HAS WORE DOWN THE RUBBER CASING THEREFORE THE BRAKELINE IS EXPOSED. WAS TOLD TO TAKE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP. THIS IS MY 2ND COMPLAINT AND NOW HAVE ANOTHER ISSUE TO ENTER. WHEN DOES THIS BECOME A LEMON LAW ISSUE? [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

I STOPPED AT A STORE WHEN I CAME OUT THE CAR WOULDN'T START. TOOK CARE TO DEALERSHIP THE IGNITION MODULE WAS BURNT OUT AND HAD TO BE REPLACED. *TR

THE CAR STAR DECREASING SPEED AND WONT ACCELERATE. HAVE TO PARK TURN IT OFF AND STAR IT AGAIN AND HAPPEN MORE FREQUENTLY. *TR

I WAS MAKING A LEFT TURN ON A LOCAL ROAD, I WAS STARTING TO ACCELERATE WHEN THE CAR SHUT OFF WITHOUT WARNING. I GLIDED SAFELY TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. LOST POWER STEERING, POWER BRAKES. THE RADIO AND HEADLIGHTS WERE STILL ON. I WAS ABLE TO TURN THE KEY TO THE OFF POSITION AND RESTART THE ENGINE. DIDN'T SEE ANY WARNING LIGHTS. I WAS ONLY GOING AT LESS THAN 10 MPH AND I WAS PULLING FROM A FULL-STOP. THE SAME THING HAPPENED 3 DAYS LATER. *TR

WHILE DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEED VEHICLE LOST ENGINE POWER SLOWING VEHICLE ON HIGHWAY. SPEED IS RESTORED AFTER FOOT IS TAKEN OFF ACCELERATOR AND REAPPLIED. LIGHTS APPEAR ON DAYS INDICATING THE STABILITY CONTROL AND AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM. VEHICLE WAS BROUGHT TO MECHANIC SEVERAL TIMES AND COULD NOT LOCATE ANY PROBLEMS. LOSS OF POWER IS NOW AT RANDOM INTERVALS AT ALL SPEEDS AND ALL CONDITIONS. MECHANIC IS STILL UNABLE TO LOCATE ANY PROBLEM. FEAR AN INCIDENT COULD OCCUR AT ANY TIME RESULTING IN A CRASH AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. LOTS OF INFORMATION ABOUT THE SAME PROBLEM LOCATED ON THE WEB. *TR

I WAS DRIVING TO PICK UP MY KIDS FROM SCHOOL AROUND 2:30 THAT AFTERNOON. WHEN COMING UP TO A GREEN LIGHT I WAS MAKING A RIGHT TURN AND EVERYTHING LOCKED UP IN MID TURN. GOOD THHING NO ONE WAS IN FRONT OF ME OR I WOULD HAVE HIT THEM. THERE WAS A GAS STATION ON THE RIGHT & BECAUSE I WAS GOING 10 MILES AN HOUR BEFORE IT LOCKED UP I WAS ABLE TO COAST INTO THE GAS STATION. IT SCARED ME SO MUCH BACAUSE I HAD NO CONTROL. I HAD A HALF A TANK LEFT SO I KNOW IT WASNT BECAUSE OF GAS. I HAVE HAD OTHER ISSUE TOO LIKE ALL OF THE WARNING LIGHTS COMING ON AT ONCE. TROUBLES AFTER I START IT THE CAR WILL DROP DOWN TO 1ST GEAR. WHEN ITS SET ON AUTO. KNOW ONE AT DEALERSHIP CAN FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT. IM SO SCARE ITS GOING TO LOCK UP AGAIN ON ME AND CAUSE A WRECK & I HAVE 3 KIDS SO IM SCARE THEY WILL BE IN CAR WHEN IT HAPPENS AGAIN. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 JEEP COMMANDER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE WAITING AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT, THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTED INTO NEUTRAL INDEPENDENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER. THE TECHNICIAN WAS UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE FAILURE.

UPON DRIVING MY JEEP COMMANDER THE CAR WILL SLOW DOWN. YOU HAVE TO PULL OVER SHUT THE CAR OFF AND RESTART AND SLOWLY EXCEL AND SOMETIMES IT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN. I HAVE HAD THE TRACTION INDICATOR COME ON OCCASIONALLY. THE CAR ONLY HAS 87,000 MILES IS THIS PART OF THE RECALL? *TR

I'VE BEEN HAVING ISSUES WITH MY '08 COMMANDER FOR SEVERAL MONTHS NOW. THE SUNROOF LEAKED AND WATER GOT INTO THE DASHBOARD, SHORTING THE RADIO OUT. DEALER FIXED SUNROOF SEAL AND RADIO. ON THE DRIVE HOME FROM THE DEALER, DASHBOARD LIGHTS STARTED FLASHING. RETURNED TO DEALER THE NEXT DAY, BUT THEY COULD NOT LOCATE A PROBLEM. THREE DAYS LATER, CAR WOULD SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING AND ALL DASHBOARD LIGHTS WOULD FLASH. RETURNED TO DEALER, THEY WERE UNABLE TO "DUPLICATE" ISSUE. TECH FROM DEALER DROVE CAR FOR 1 DAY AND HE COULD NOT FIND AN ISSUE. ONE WEEK LATER, CAR SMELLED HORRIBLE OF FUEL AND CAR WOULD SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING. RETURNED TO DEALER AND DEALER REPLACED O2 SENSOR. PICKED UP CAR AND ON MY WAY HOME, LIGHTS FLASHED, CAR STALLED AND SMELLED WORSE OF FUEL. IMMEDIATELY RETURNED TO DEALER, DEALER REPLACED A SECOND O2 SENSOR. PICKED UP CAR, 5 MILES FROM DEALER, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. CALLED DEALER AND HE SAID TO DRIVE CAR UNTIL THE ENGINE "RESET"(ABOUT 10 MILES) OR UNTIL LIGHT BEGAN FLASHING, THEN BRING IT IN SINCE THEY CAN NOT FIND A REAL PROBLEM. ISSUE SEEMED TO RESOLVE FOR A COUPLE WEEKS OF NOT DRIVING CAR MUCH, BUT THEN THE DASHBOARD LIGHTS BEGAN FLASHING AGAIN, CAR SMELLED OF FUEL AND CAR SEEMED BOGGED DOWN. TODAY, CAR BARELY STARTED AND WAS VERY BOGGED DOWN. ATTEMPTED TO DRIVE, BUT CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND FLASHED REPEATEDLY. CAR WOULD NOT GO OVER 40MPH, SHOOK HORRIBLY AND FINALLY SHUT OFF. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE THIS CAR WITH MY CHILD INSIDE. I AM A DISABLED SINGLE M

MY 2008 JEEP COMMANDER OVERLAND EDITION HAS SHUT OFF MULTIPLE TIMES WHILE I AM DRIVING DOWN THE INTERSTATE AT 60 + MPH. I LOOK ALL FUNCTION WHEN THIS HAPPENS; POWER STEERING, GAS, ELECTRICAL, ETC. I HAVE TO MAKE MY WAY TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND RESTART IT. IT ALWAYS RESTARTS RIGHT AWAY. I HAVE TAKEN MY CAR IN 4-6 TIMES TO ALLEN SAMUELS DODGE, JEEP IN KATY TX TO TRY AND HAVE THE PROBLEM DIAGNOSED. EACH TIME THEY KEEP MY CAR FOR MULTIPLE DAYS AND THEN TELL ME THEY CANNOT DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM. I HAVE CALLED CHRYSLER CUSTOMER SERVICE AND AM GETTING NO HELP FROM THEM EITHER. THEY KEEP TELLING ME TO TAKE THE CAR IN TO GET IT LOOKED AT SO THEY CAN DIAGNOSE IT. YET EACH TIME I TAKE THE CAR IN TO GET A DIAGNOSIS, I AM CHARGED FOR A RENTAL CAR FOR A FEW DAYS, BUT THEN TOLD THEY CANNOT DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM AND THEY SEND ME ON MY WAY. WITHIN WEEKS, I HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM OF THE CAR SHUTTING OFF WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE INTERSTATE. I HAVE RESEARCHED THE PROBLEM ONLINE AND HAVE FOUND HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE COMPLAINING OF THE EXACT SAME PROBLEMS IN THEIR 2008 JEEP COMMANDER. I AM AT A LOSS AS TO WHAT TO DO NOW. I FEEL THE CAR IS EXTREMEMLY UNSAFE, YET CHRYSLER IS DOING NOTHING TO FIX THE PROBLEM. *TR

AS I WAS SLOWLY PULLING INTO A PARKING SPACE WITH MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE PEDAL THE CAR WAS COASTING SLOWLY INTO THE SPOT. I BEGAN TO DEPRESS THE BRAKE PEDAL TO BEGIN STOPPING WHEN SUDDENLY THE BRAKE PEDAL DEPRESSED ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR AND THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO ACCELERATE. I TRIED TO PUMP THE BRAKE AND THE VEHICLE CONTINUED OVER THE CURB INTO THE BUILDING. THE AIRBAG NEVER DEPLOYED. I DID NOT HAVE MY FOOT NEAR THE ACCELERATOR DURING THIS TIME, THE FLOOR MAT WAS NOWHERE NEAR THE ACCELERATOR OR BRAKE PEDAL AND THE VEHICLE WAS IN DRIVE. THE BRAKES FAILED TO WORK AND THE CAR ACCELERATED ON IT'S OWN. *TR

STARTED JEEP, BACKED OUT OF PARKING SPACE, TURNED LEFT OUT OF PARKING LOT, DROVE 20 FEET TO STOP SIGN, JEEP STALLED WHILE WAITING FOR TRAFFIC TO CLEAR FOR LEFT HAND TURN. *TR

MY 2008 JEEP COMMANDER OVERLAND EDITION HAS BEEN STALLING OUT AND JUMPING. IT STARTED WITH DYING WHEN I WOULD COME TO A STOP AT A STOP SIGN OR RED LIGHT. I WOULD PUT IT IN PARK AND IT WOULD CRANK BACK UP. IT THEN GRADUATED TO "JUMPING" WHILE I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE INTERSTATE AT 60+ MPH. IT WOULD JUMP AS IF IT CAME OUT OF GEAR, BUT THEN KICK BACK IN AND CONTINUE AS IF NOTHING WAS WRONG. IT HAS NOW STARTED JUMPING LIKE THAT AND DYING WHILE DRIVING AT 60+ MPH. IT JUMPS, THEN DIES AND WE LOSE POWER STEERING. IT IS VERY SCARY AND VERY DANGEROUS. THANKFULLY I HAVE BEEN ABLE TO PULL OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND PUT IT IN PARK AND IT START RIGHTS BACK UP. I HAVE TAKEN THE JEEP INTO THE DEALERSHIP AND OTHER MECHANICS. I AM ALWAYS TOLD THAT THERE ARE NO WARNINGS THAT SHOW UP IN THE COMPUTER AND THEY CANNOT DUPLICATE THE ISSUE, SO THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO. I AM AFRAID THAT THIS WILL CAUSE AN ACCIDENT AND POSSIBLE SERIOUS INJURY BEFORE ANYTHING IS DONE ABOUT THIS. I HAVE RESEARCHED THIS ONLINE AND DISCOVERED THAT MANY PEOPLE HAVE HAD THE SAME ISSUE, BUT NO ONE SEEMS TO KNOW THE CAUSE. I ALSO NOTICED THERE WAS A RECALL ON 1338 JEEPS BECAUSE SOME PART WAS CAUSING THEM TO STALL OUT. WHEN I CALLED CHRYSLER, THEY TOLD ME THAT MY JEEP WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. I FIND IT STRANGE THAT MY JEEP IS HAVING THE SAME ISSUE, BUT I AM BEING TOLD THAT THE RECALL DOESN'T AFFECT ME. I NEED TO KNOW WHAT IS CAUSING THIS ISSUE WITH MY CAR AND WOULD LIKE TO FIND OUT BEFORE ANYONE IS SERIOUSLY HUR

WHILE TRAVELING NORTHBOUND ON THE NEW JERSEY TURNPIKE ON JUNE 17, 2012, AT APPROXIMATELY 4:00 PM THE VEHICLES ENGINE JUST STALLED, RATE OF SPEED AT THE TIME WAS APPROXIMATELY 55 MPH. MY WIFE WAS ABLE TO GUIDE THE VEHICLE TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. GOT OUT CHECK THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT, COULD NOT IDENTIFY ANY ISSUES. WIFE RESTARTED THE VEHICLE.

MOST OF THE STALLS SEEM TO BE AT SPEEDS ABOVE 45 MPH, BUT SHE HAS MENTIONED THAT IT RECENTLY STALLED AT AN INTERSECTION. *TR

TRAVELING ON THE INTERSTATE HWY AT 70 MPH NO WARNING THE VEHICLE SHUT OFF. I PULLED OVER TO THE EMERGENCY LANE. SHUT OFF ENGINE AND IT STARTED BACK UP. THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING MONTHLY ISSUE, SOMETIMES IT SHUT OFF 10 TO 15 MINUTES AFTER I HAVE BEEN DRIVING. SOMETIMES THE ENGINE COMES ON FOR A FEW DAYS AND GOINGS OFF. IT HAS BECOME A DANGEROUS SITUATION, WHEN DRIVING I HAVE STAY IN THE RIGHT LANE SO IF IT HAPPENS I WONT BE STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSTATE. THIS RECENT TIME ON NOVEMBER 30, 2012 WAS TRAVELING WITH BUSINESS CLIENTS, SEVERAL OTHER TIMES WITH MY WIFE AND GRANDCHILDREN. TAKEN TO THE DEALER, THEY HAVE TESTED ON THEIR EQUIPMENT (CHARGE ME UP TO OVER $200.00 TO TEST) AND TOLD ME TECH COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG; REPLACE A SWITCH. THIS ISSUE HAS FORCED ME IN MY BUSINESS TO TRAVEL TO RENT A RENTAL CAR TO TRAVEL OUT OF THE TOWN AS BEFORE I DROVE MY JEEP. THIS IS EXPENSE AND MAKING A DECISION IF I NEED TO PURCHASE ANOTHER VEHICLE: NOT A JEEP. *TR

THERE HAVE BEEN TIMES ( AS RECENT AS YESTERDAY) THAT IT HAS STALLED WHILE DRIVING THE EXPRESSWAY AND THEN AGAIN AT A STOP LIGHT.

ON JUNE 6, 2012 AT APPROXIMATELY 12 NOON WHILE DRIVING MY 2008 JEEP COMMANDER AT 15 MPH IT STOPPED AND WOULD NOT START AGAIN. THERE WERE NO WARNING LIGHTS, IT DID NOT OVERHEAT, AND ALL OF THE ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS SUCH AS THE RADIO, WINDOWS, LIGHTS, ETC CONTINUED TO WORK, ONLY A CLICKING SOUND AND IT WOULD NOT START. I HAD IT TOWED TO JEEP. BECAUSE THEY HAVE MAINTAINED MY VEHICLE SINCE I PURCHASED IT FROM CARMAX 16 MONTHS PRIOR. DEALER, STATED I MIGHT NEED A STARTER RECOMMENDING I AUTHORIZE TO PUT ONE ON COSTING ME $400. LATER THAT AFTERNOON I WAS TOLD THE ENGINE WAS LOCKED UP AND SINCE I WAS OUT OF WARRANTY, CHRYSLER WOULD POSSIBLY ASSIST ME. I CONTACTED CHRYSLER AND WAS ASSIGNED A CASE MANAGER. AFTER 3 WEEKS OF NOT BEING ABLE TO CONTACT THE CASE MANAGER, I CONTACED THE HEAD OFFICE L AND ASK CUSTOMER SERVICE TO HAVE GIVE ME ANSWER. THE CASE MANAGER RETURNED A RESPONSE TO HAVE THE ENGINE TAKEN APART TO DISCERN THE ISSUE. THE SERVICE MANAGER, DID SO WITH NO COST TO ME BECAUSE AT THIS TIME I AM AN UNEMPLOYED (CHICAGO PUBLIC SCHOOL TEACHER). HE FOUND THE DEFECT TO BE FROM THE FACTORY WHEREBY A SPRING IN THE VALVE BROKE CAUSING THE VALVE TO DROP DOWN IN THE ENGINE, WHICH CAUSED THE ENGINE TO LOCK. PER THE SERVICE MANAGER, I NOR THE PREVIOUS OWNER ARE AT FAULT, AND EXPLAINED THIS TO THE CASE MANAGER. THE CASE MANAGER ASKED HIM, "WHAT DOES SHE WANT (MEANING ME) TO GIVE HER THE ENGINE FOR FREE"? I AM AT ODDS WITH CHYRSLER AND WONDER WHY I AM RECEIVING SUCH DISPARAGING TREATMENT FROM

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 JEEP COMMANDER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE LOST POWER AND ALL OF THE LIGHTS ON THE INSTRUMENTAL ILLUMINATED.

OUR 2008 JEEP COMMANDER WAS HIT FROM BEHIND WHILE MAKING A RIGHT TURN. THE IMPACT CAUSED THE COMMANDER TO FLIP LANDING ON THE DRIVER SIDE ROOF AND THEN ROLLING ONTO THE DRIVER'S SIDE WHERE IT SLID INTO ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE IMPACT FROM HITTING THE ROOF AND SIDE OF THE CAR RESULTED IN THE CAR BEING TOTALED BY THE INSURANCE COMPANY OF THE PERSON AT FAULT. THE SIDE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY WHEN THE CAR ROLLED ONTO IT'S SIDE. PER PAGE 52 OF THE OWNER'S MANUAL "THE WINDOW BAG ON THE CRASH SIDE OF THE VEHICLE IS TRIGGERED IN MODERATE TO SEVERE SIDE COLLISIONS" ALSO PAGE 56 STATES "THE SIDE IMPACT SRS SIDE CURTAIN AIRBAGS ARE DESIGNED TO ACTIVATE ONLY IN CERTAIN SIDE OR ROLLOVER COLLISIONS." THE ENTIRE DRIVER SIDE OF THE VEHICLE WAS CRUSHED IN, THE DRIVER SIDE MIRROR WAS PUSHED THROUGH THE WINDOW DUE TO THE IMPACT. AFTER THE VEHICLE ROLLED IT CAME TO REST ON THE DRIVER SIDE. HOW MUCH IMPACT IS NEEDED TO DEPLOY THESE AIRBAGS? THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR ALONE WAS BENT OFF OF THE FRAME. I CAN UNDERSTAND THE FRONT AIRBAG POSSIBLY NOT BEING DEPLOYED AS THE VEHICLE WAS HIT FROM BEHIND, BUT I AM SURPRISED THAT THE INITIAL IMPACT TO THE DRIVER SIDE ROOF CORNER SIDE NOT TRIGGER ANYTHING NOR DID THE ROLLOVER AND SIDE IMPACT THAT OCCURRED. *TR

ENGINE STALLS: ENGINE STALLS RANDOMLY, AT A LIGHT, AROUND A CORNER, AND EVEN ON FREEWAY AT 70 MPH. ENGINE WILL NOT RESTART AFTER A STALL UNTIL THE KEY HAS BEEN REMOVED FROM THE IGNITION. I HAVE HAD AT LEAST 15-20 STALLS SINCE I HAVE OWNED THE VEHICLE. TRANSMISSION JERKS: THIS STARTED IN THE LAST FEW MONTHS. TRANSMISSION DISENGAGES WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD THEN SUDDENLY REENGAGES, JERKING THE CAR FORWARD. SOMETIMES THE CAR WILL CONTINUE OK, SOMETIMES THE ENGINE WILL DIE. ELECTRICAL ISSUES: NOT A SAFETY ISSUE BUT MAYBE RELATED, I HAVE HAD NUMEROUS PROBLEMS WITH MY NAV SYSTEM GOING DARK (WON'T DISPLAY UNTIL ENGINE RESTARTED) - LOST SETTINGS. REAR DVD HAS TOTALLY GONE OUT. DEALER SAYS THERE IS A CODE FOR "LOST COMMUNICATION WITH RADIO" DUE TO AN OPEN SHORT. LAST INCIDENT: 04/11/2012 (51000 MILES): ON INTERSTATE 75 MPH - TOOK FOOT OFF THE ACCELERATOR TO SLOW DOWN AND FELT LIKE THE ENGINE HAD DIED (LOST MOMENTUM AND WAS COASTING). I APPLIED THE GAS AND THE RPM'S O THE ENGINE INCREASED BUT THE CAR DID NOT GAIN SPEED. FELT LIKE TRANSMISSION HAD DISENGAGED. THE CAR JERKED FORWARD LIKE THE TRANSMISSION REENGAGED. MOMENTUM WAS RETURNED FOR ABOUT 1 SECOND THEN DISENGAGED AGAIN. THE SECOND TIME, THE ENGINE DIED AND I HAD TO COAST TO THE SIDE OF THE INTERSTATE. CAR RESTARTED AND I WAS ABLE TO CONTINUE DOWN THE ROAD. AFTER DRIVING FOR ANOTHER 3 HOURS, THE "SERVICE 4WD" MESSAGE CAME UP ON THE DISPLAY. PULLED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, TURNED THE CAR OFF AND BACK ON, SAME MESSAGE CAME UP. CO

THERE IS TEARING AND FRAYING OF THE DRIVER'S SIDE SEAT BELT WHICH IS CAUSING THE BELT TO GET STUCK IN THE LOOPS OF THE SEAT BELT MECHANISM AND MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO BUCKLE THE SEAT BELT. THE BIGGEST CONCERN IS IF IT DOES GET STUCK AND LOCK INTO PLACE WHEREIN I CANNOT MOVE OR OPEN THE BELT DUE TO THE FACT THAT IT GETS TIGHT THIS IS DEFINITELY A SAFETY HAZARD. IN ADDITION TO WHICH, THE SEAT BELT DOES NOT RETRACT PROPERLY DUE TO THE TEARING. IN ADDITION, THE SEAT BELT ON THE PASSENGER SIDE SHOW SIGNS OF TEARING ALSO. THIS IS DEFINITELY A SAFETY HAZARD ISSUE ESPECIALLY DUE TO THE FACT OF WHAT HAS HAPPENED ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE IS NOW HAPPENING ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. THERE IS OBVIOUSLY A DEFECT IN THE MECHANICS, COMPONENTS AND/OR MATERIAL OF THE SEAT BELTS AND CHRYSLER IS NOT RECOGNIZING THIS AS THEIR RESPONSIBILITY. *TR

2008 JEEP COMMANDER, 4.7L FLEXFUEL, BOUGHT NEW IN 12/08, HAS WORKED FLAWLESSLY FOR FOUR YEARS AND 66,000 MILES UNTIL NOW. THE VEHICLE WILL STALL OUT AT ANY SPEED, FROM LOW 30MPH TO HIGHWAY SPEEDS. REQUIRES THAT THE CAR BE SAFELY PULLED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, TRANSMISSION PLACED IN PARK AND KEY TURNED OFF AND THEN ON AGAIN. NO PRIOR INDICATION OF STALL - IT SIMPLY 'QUITS'. NO EVIC MESSAGES OR DASH WARNING LIGHTS. THE JEEP HAS BEEN METICULOUSLY MAINTAINED AND NOT ABUSED OR NEGLECTED. THIS IS AN INTERMITTENT PROBLEM, THAT TO DATE, HAS OCCURRED FIVE TIMES SINCE IT BEGAN ABOUT FIVE WEEKS AGO. JUST PRIOR TO STALLING THE DRIVE TRAIN WILL QUICKLY AND VIOLENTLY SHUTTER LEADING ME TO BELIEVE THE TRANSMISSION IS DOING SOMETHING IT SHOULDN'T DO. I HAVE NOT YET BROUGHT THIS TO CHRYSLER SINCE FROM READING OTHER POSTS CHRYSLER HAS NO IDEA WHAT TO DO. I HAVE BEEN FORTUNATE SO FAR IN BEING ABLE TO SAFELY PULL OVER BUT FEAR THAT ONE DAY I MAY BE IN A PERILOUS SITUATION. MY FAMILY HAS ALL JEEPS (91 CHEROKEE, 06 GR. CHEROKEE, AND 08 COMMANDER) AND LOVE THEM. THIS DOES NOT BODE WELL FOR BUYING A NEW JEEP IN THE FUTURE. *TR

THIS VEHICLE HAS AN INTERMITTENT ELECTRICAL ISSUE, PERIODICALLY ALL OF THE DASHBOARD WARNING LIGHTS WILL FLASH ON AND THEN ALL OF THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS WILL FAIL - INCLUDING THE SPEEDOMETER AND OTHER INSTRUMENT GAUGES, THE TURN SIGNALS AND THE OTHER LIGHTS, THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS, THE RADIO, AND EVERYTHING ELSE. USUALLY EVERYTHING WILL RESET AFTER THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN PARKED, SHUT DOWN, ALLOWED TO "REST" FOR SEVERAL HOURS, AND RESTARTED. THIS EVENT HAS OCCURRED 8 OR 9 TIMES SINCE THE ORIGINAL INCIDENT. AFTER THE MOST RECENT INCIDENT THE RADIO SPEAKERS WENT DOWN ONE BY ONE AND YOU CAN NO LONGER USE THE RADIO, HOWEVER YOU DO SOMETIMES GET A LOUD STATIC SOUND OVER THE SPEAKERS - EVEN THOUGH THE RADIO IS TURNED OFF. I CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP AFTER THE ORIGINAL INCIDENT AND WAS TOLD THAT WHEN THIS FAILURE EVENT OCCURS THE SYSTEM WOULD "RESET ITSELF" WITHOUT INTERVENTION, AND THAT I WOULD HAVE TO PAY A DIAGNOSTIC FEE IF I BROUGHT THE VEHICLE IN FOR TESTING, SO I HAVE BEEN PUTTING UP WITH THIS EVER SINCE. HOWEVER, NOW THAT OTHER RELATED SYSTEMS ARE FAILING PERMANENTLY I AM NOT WILLING TO PUT UP WITH IT ANY LONGER, I AM CONCERNED THAT EVENTUALLY EVERYTHING ELSE WILL FAIL PERMANENTLY INCLUDING THE INSTRUMENTS, TURN SIGNALS, WINDSHIELD WIPERS, ETC. THE CONSUMER SENT AN E-MAIL REQUESTING TO ADD ADDITIONAL INFO. YESTERDAY, 07/21/2011, THIS VEHICLE STALLED OUT TWICE WHILE IN OPERATION WHILE MY WIFE WAS RUNNING ERRANDS IN NORMAL CITY TRAFFIC.
