2006 JEEP Commander

Continuous electrical problems including windows, interior lights, dying or stalling, hesitation, and non starting, even afterignition switch recall performed. Suspect tipm and ignition switch and ecm flash ? Problems increased after ignition switch recall. New battery, starter, alternator, but won\\\'t start sporadically. I put current date on most of the items because put up with them for years and currently.

WATER LEAKAGE IN THE FLOOR PANEL OF BOTH THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE AREAS. DEALERSHIP DOES NOT WANT TO FIX THE PROBLEM WITHOUT GETTING COMPENSATED, EVEN THOUGH THERE IS A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT PENDING REGARDING THIS VERY PROBLEM. NEED HEP ASAP.

Started the 3.7L Jeep up and had a loud knocking and ticking noise. Had it taken to Jeep dealership and when they took the engine apart the timing chain fell apart. Engine is totalled. I have only owned the vehicle for now 5 months, it’s been sitting for 2 months.

My jeep has been recalled for over 2 years for steering column dropping back into off and shutting off car while driving. I have expereiced this 5 times. I keep getting letters to bring car in for service but parts are never in.Someone is going to get hurt.

In August 2013 I took my 2006 Jeep Commander to the local dealership for recall N23. After the recall was performed my 4WD LO was inoperable and a 4WD Service light was displayed. After going back to the dealership and the computer flash redone, I had 4WD LO for 1 day before failing again. Since, they have replaced the transfer case actuator and did a star case update. Still inop.

Chrysler recall N23 applied Aug, 2013. Reprogram FDCM on 400,000 vehicles worldwide to work around crack in transfer case actuator circuit board. After recall four wheel drive low range and neutral is intermittently inoperative. This failure has been reported by many owners of Commander and Grand Cherokee. Refer to (http://www.jeepforum.com/forum/f67/n23-recall-issue-no-4-low-1561787/). This feature is a prime reason for purchase of Jeeps. Many owners, including me, require this “neutral” feature in order to tow the Jeep behind a motorhome. When the Jeep fails to go into neutral, it cannot be connected to the motorhome and, if there is only one driver available to drive two vehicles, a major problem exists.

To reiterate, a software change was used to solve a problem of a cracked circuit board. This, according to Chrysler, uncovered a previously unknown flaw in the transfer case functionality. Chrysler has yet to provide a fix for the problem.

This Jeep is under recall P41 which was effective Sept. 3, 2014. However, the parts are NOT available yet. They have NOT been manufactured. This Jeep seems to be experiencing the issues associated with the P41 or a fautly Control Module. I have contacted Chrysler by phone and email on several occasions.
Below are some of the issues the vehicle has had / is having:

Sept 2013 — Stalled, Shut Down, No Start
Piston Replaced Est. Cost ($1000) — DAs office repaired at Independent Auto Repair
Car stalled / shut down while driving approximately 25mph. Car restarted after about 5 tries and
was driven home. No restart. Vehicle was towed to mechanic. Piston was replaced. Car never worked
properly after incident. Jeep would pulsate when slowing down or stopped. Intermittent and random hesitation
and acceleration.

April 2014 — Stalled, Shut Down, No Start — Est. Cost $500 — Repaired by Independent Mechanic
Starter Replaced / New Battery (approx. mileage 86,000)
(My 66 yr old mother driving alone)
Car stalled while driving at approximately 25mph. After about 10 minutes and several attempts car restarted for
a short distance (about 1 mile) and stalled again while driving. Car was towed home. Independent
mechanic replaced battery and solenoid/starter.

June 2014 — No Start, Transmission over Temp– Est. Cost $800 — Repaired by Independent Mechanic
Jeep would start for very short period, over-heat and shut down. Would restart after cooling. Transmission
over Temp light on dash. Hoses and water pump relpaced. Blower motor replaced (a/c & heat hadnt worked
in over a year). Replacing blower motor did allow a/c & heat to work BUT only on high.

July 2014 — Stalled, Shut Down, No Start (Towed In) Est. Cost $600 Approx. Mileage 92,000 – To Dealership
Dealership cant find any problems. Had TuneUp; replaced spark plugs, etc.
Vehicle was hesitating while driving. Engine light on. Dash lights would come on and shut completely off while driving. After car was shut off it wouldnt restart. Windows wouldnt work or if they finally engaged would go up and
down sporadically. Car horn came on by itself and wouldnt shut off until relay was taken out. Windshield
wipers went haywire. Jeep was TOWED to dealership because it wouldnt start therefore, it wouldnt
run, but the dealership couldnt find anything wrong with it. Tune-up was done and the Jeep, somehow, ran.

Sept 2014 — Stalled, Shut Down, No Start (Towed In) Est Cost $600 Approx. Mileage 94,000 – To Dealership
Starter Replaced, New Battery. Car started hesitating while driving. Dash lights would all come on and then all
shut off. When coming to a stop or slowing down car would lose power. At stops, would have to keep foot on gas
to keep car from stalling. While coming to an intersection to make a left turn on a green turn arrow car wouldnt
engage to excel. My 7 year old daughter was in the car. I feared we were going to stall in the middle of the
intersection of a busy street. All the dash lights came on and shut off repeatedly as we coasted around the turn.
Car re-engaged and we pulled into a parking lot. Shut the car off, went into Walmart. When we came out car
started. Engine light on. Being only 1 mile from home we drove home. The next morning car wouldnt start.
Got a new battery. Car still wouldnt start. Had it towed to dealership. Dealership replaced solenoid/starter.

Sept 2014 — Hesitates, Lights on dash on and off, Engine light on, problems starting. – Drove to Dealership
Dealership cant find any problems. Again, dashboard lights came and all shut off. Jeep is/was hesitating while
driving and not engaging / changing gears while driving. Also, periodically accelerates randomly while driving.
Dealership suggests replacing control module ($1300) and having wiring harness diagnosed ($600 for diagnosis
not to fix it — est. cost to replace wiring harness $1500 to $3000). But, they do NOT know what is wrong
with the Jeep.

Oct. 2014 — Hesitates, Random Acceleration, Dash lights all on to all off. — No Fix
Vehicle continues to have problems. As I cannot afford to keep replacing parts or diagnosing issues I drive it
as it. I have 3 children that I will not drive in the Jeep any further away from home than a mile or 2 and will only
drive with the children in the car on side streets or back roads. Therefore, my children do not go anywhere
except the local park, to school, or to a friends house that lives near by. They do not go to any store with me
that is farther than 1 mile away, or that main roads have to be taken to get to it.

Not included in the costs above are the car rental fees I have had to pay each time the car was under repair.

Other misc. problems: Broken Door Handle, Sun Roof doesnt close properly, Poor Paint (Thin; scratches and rust),
rough drive, a/c & heating only work on high

11/19 or 11/20 (11/21) (?) Video on phone of Jeep losing power…on the way to work.

11/25 — Jeep losing power from Briannas school on way home. Lights on and off.
11/26 — Lost power getting on highway at Green Valley Pkwy going West. All lights went out, gauges shut off,
Jeep slowed as losing power. Jeep regained power and drove home. (approx noon)

My Jeep has been turning off on me while I drive as much as twice daily at least three times a week. There is also a leak somewhere that causes my passenger side floor to fill with water during rain or snow. There is currently a recall regarding the vehicle turning off, however Chrysler currently doesn’t have a solution to the problem. I have almost crashed into vehicles when our roads are snow packed and icy. I use this vehicle to take my kids to school and go to work. This is such a serious problem and my fear is that we will get into a serious accident.

My main problems are the ignition shifting by itself and hurting my transmission and endangering me on freeway and my sunroof leaking. The paint has a defect in it per dealer

Leaking around sunroof which leaves puddles on the floor, carpet & padding moldy. Took to dealer 3 times. They act as if the poor design of the drainage is my fault.

STALLING WHILE DRIVING

We purchased a 2006 Jeep Commander in July, and since then we have had 2 rock chips in the windshield, which we have had patched. Since then, we now have 4 cracks that all started below the windshield wipers and have spread all the way across the windshield. It doesn’t seem that it would be logical that all 4 of these cracks, that all started within 24 hours of each other, would have all been caused by rocks. It seems that there is a design flaw with the windshield, being too flat with no slope. We have never had any problems with any of our other cars like we have had with the windshield on our Commander. We don’t drive on gravel roads at all, and haven’t driven in any construction zones. We took our Commander to the local Jeep dealership, and asked that they repair it under warranty, and we were told that they don’t cover glass repairs under warranty ever. It just seems to us that this is a flaw in the design of the car, and we aren’t too excited about replacing the windshield every 6 months for close to $500 (will cost extra because of the rain sensor on the glass), especially since we are afraid that it will continue to be prone to rock chips and cracks for who knows what reason. We have friends who also have a 2006 Commander, and they are currently on their 3rd windshield for the same reasons we have listed. Something has to be wrong with this and we are wondering when Jeep is going to do something about it and either pay to replace the windshields or recall the vehicles all together.

The front passenger side seatbelt is much shorter than the driver seatbelt, making it nearly impossible for anyone over 5 feet to sit in this seat without being pinned to the seat.I took the vehicle back to the selling dealer and also to another dealer for inspection and I was told \"that is just the way it\’s made\". I cannot see how this can be safe, it will cause people just not to wear the seatbelt due to the level of discomfort it causes. I am nearly 5\’3\" and I can hardly lean forward two inches without it locking.I contacted DCX by phone and via their website, and their solution was a seat belt extender, which is not much better. I am battling with them, trying to get them to give me a new seatbelt, seeing as I special ordered this $37K truck!Has your organization received similar complaints? Thank you!

Rotors were cut about a week after delivery, then replaced about a month after that. Right front window auto up and down feature keeps leaving window down. They are finally replacing parts in door for window operation after fourth try. One of the tires is warped or damaged some how to create slight vibration at highway speeds and a little noisy. I was told there was nothing wrong .transmission seems to go into high gear between 35-45 mph which is to slow for that gear and leaves me with no acceleration without having to shift down manually to get on interstate. there is a leak at the bottom left corner of the tailgate when washing the vehicle and a screeching noise somewhere in the back part of the Jeep don

On three random occasions during the month of October, I experienced power loss while driving my 2006 Jeep Commander, 4×4 Hemi. The first time this occurred, I had taken a trip to the grocery store — 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. I thought \"oh, no my battery\’s going!\" but realized that some of the dash lights and the radio were turning on and off. So, I turned the ignition off and waited about 2 minutes, then I started the Jeep again. It started and everything seemed OK (except the airbag light remained on) so I decided to drive home. 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 going quite slow and there wasn\’t much traffic, so I was able to coast into a parking lot on the other side of the road and stop in a parking spot, where I turned off the ignition. This time, I waited 5 minutes, it started and I made it home without incident (airbag light still lingered for a while). While this experience was a bit unnerving, I\’d hoped it was a \"computer hiccup\" that wouldn\’t occur again.Sadly, I was wrong, about 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 was the day I brought it in for service (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!). Only a third mile from my home, 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 no longer feel safe driving this vehicle. The whole idea of possibly losing my power steering/brakes while driving fast is very dangerous and puts my family and others on the road in harms way.The vehicle was purchased from Desert Jeep in Las Vegas. It has been there 3 times for service (list of inconveniences) and the service has been lousy at best.This being an important safety issue, I decided to take it to a family run dealership – Jim Marsh Jeep. The service staff were much more helpful and genuinely seem to care – nevertheless unable to resolve my problem. These incidents did not leave a \"code\" in the computer and they are unable to re-create the problem, so they don\’t know what to fix. They called the manufacturer, who took two days to return the call, only to suggest that I remove the other three keys from my keyring because their weight must be causing the highly-sensitive ignition tumbler to toggle to accessory mode.Uuuuugggghhhhhh. I am not comfortable with this explanation. I am still afraid to drive this vehicle. What should I do?

My 06 Commander’s engine stalls sometimes when coming to a stop, or near stop. No codes are being thrown, technicians have been unable to duplicate. Dealer has tried to reprogram PCM and it still stalls. It has stalled probably 10+ times since April 07. This is a serious safety concern as it has stalled in/near busy intersections, or when merging into 55 mph traffic.

I purchased my 2006 Jeep Commander in June of 2006 at Akins Ford Jeep Chrysler Dealership in Winder, GA. While driving, it will turn off without notice. It has done this approximately 10 times since we have purchased it. It has happened sitting at lights, idling and while traveling in light traffic it will stall. This is very scary for both myself and my wife. We waited for Jeep to do a recall and while they have refused one, I decided to not wait any longer and have the dealership at Akins in Winder, GA try and fix the problem. They acted as if they have never heard of the problem and changed out the Air Filter and cleaned the throttle body to the tune of $384.12. While driving yesterday, it shut off again, so the problem is not fixed.I know Chrysler knows about this and is not doing anything about it, just waiting until someone dies from this problem. While doing some research, I\’ve noticed that there are a ton of other Jeep Commander owners who are having the same problem with different mechanics giving advice and no one knows what is wrong. Please include me on the list for complaints.

Car has had a water leak on the passenger\’s floor and has been in the shop 9 times. Carpet has been replaced and is molding and stinking.I have requested to get out of the lease and waiting for the decision.

This vehicle has had five engine stalls. It shuts off without warning and no indications on the dash except the last time where the engine symbol was on. When it stalls there is no braking and or steering. The problem started at 6,000.00 miles. I currently have 16,011 miles on the truck. I no longer drive this vehicle because it is very dangerous. I have contacted Chrysler and requested a buyback back on Aug 17, 2007. I have yet to receive a response to them reference my complaint. I filed a complaint with Consumer Affairs in Richmond, Va and they have not received anything from Chrysler. I have now filed a lawsuit against Chrysler and currently awaiting for them to be served and a court date. This vehicle is still be sold to the public at crazy low prices (used and new.) I’m sure you all are aware that this is a problem on the 06 and 07 models. Unknown on the 08.

THE VEHICLE HAS STALLED TWICE BUT THE DEALERSHIP STATES THAT THEY ARE UNABLE TO RETRIEVE ANY CODES THAT WOULD INDICATE THAT SOMETHING IS WRONG. AFTER DOING RESEARCH ON THE INTERNET THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM AMONG JEEP COMMANDER OWNERS AND ALL HAVE THE SAME OUTCOME. I AM VERY CONCERNED BECAUSE MY WIFE DRIVES THE VEHICLE AND MY CHILDREN ARE WITH HER MOST OF THE TIME. I AM INTERESTED IN A SOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM BUT IF NOTHING IS BEING DONE TO FIND ONE THEN I WOULD LIKE MY JEEP TO BE PURCHASED BACK.

The car has been stalling since 2007 could not duplicate problem Gresham Jeep pretty much told me I was crazy just dealt with it I had health problems in 2008 just dealt with it I only have 43000 mile I bought vehicle new in 07 Now my jeep won’t start electrical problems lights flashing on freeway driving 55 almost rear ended The Jeep Gresham store has now closed . This has happened over weekend nearest dealer is 30 mins away car is not driveable will have to tow I will call dealer in morning. Now warranty issue. The Jeep will not even start now before it would idle then shut off. Now light go on and off radio works. This vehicle at this point is not safe to drive.

Progressive Insurance and Park Jeep in Burnsville Minnesota my passenger airbag off light is malfunctioning since I got rear ended by a Progressive driver. His Jeep Cherokee was totaled after a 40 plus mile an hour hit on my Commander and was pushed into a car in front of us. Progressive acts like nothing gets damaged other than my front and rear bumpers their customer service is horrible to deal with Park Jeep told Lehmanns body shop the air bag lights and stays lit up for anything under 100 pounds. Since accident it is malfunctioning – it would light up on light weight objects or my kids one 70 lbs one 80 lbs and deactivates the airbag so it does not deploy. Manager at Park Jeep said same thing. Now when light weight objects or my son is in seat light stays off means air bag is turned on manual says airbag is in on mode only when a adult is in seat. Manager at Jeep dealer changed his story midway through day on Tuesday. Airbag repair person Progressive called then I called said light is supposed to be on for anything under 100 lbs. Progressive and Jeep manager says he and the manual are wrong I need any immediate help or advice to try to get repair resolved for safety so air bag does not malfunction and kill my son, daughter, wife or friends if we get into another accident and it malfunctions air bag person said my passenger weighs around 150 lbs and that puts 300 lbs of pull on seat and that could bend frame of seat and the weights and sensor should be replaced his repair book says even if air bags don’t go off in crash jeep and progressive don’t agree even though progressive brought in the air bag repair person the serv manager says he is the air bag sensor expert and he is all over the place one minute its supposed to light up and stay lit with under a 100 pounds on the seat then he says it only lights up with 30 pounds on seat manual says opposite please help.

OTHER: Loud knocking in front end all of the time. Also a hard vibration in front end all of the time. I have taken the vehicle back to the dealer on (4) other occations to address this same issue and they have told me something different each time. The problem is now worse than it ever has been. Vehicle is unsafe.

My Jeep Commander continues to stall out, almost got killed the other day when it stalled out when I was making a left against traffic (this is the second time I have almost been hit due to the stalling issue).
Has stalled approximately 15 times in the year I have owned this vehicle.
Jeep said it is due to hitting the key, however that is impossible as I only have the key in the ignition (nothing else), and my knee is unable to touch it even if it tried.

Interior door latches come unattached to door panels causing the doors not to open from inside the vehicle. This has not been repaired as yet.

I cant afford to fix all of the problems and any dealership I bring it to pushes it back on me saying they cant get it to do the same things I keep having problems with.

I am having problems when driving, the engine will just shut down, It has happened on the frwy and on the streets, It happens randomly and have now have had back to the dealship for the second time and they still can’t find any problems, I have had my wife in the car making a left hand turn and it shut off and almost got hit from traffic, It has shut down on the frwy several times but luckly was able to restart, this is a ongoing problem, I have talked to chrysler and a rep there stated in so many words that this problem is bigger than me and that they cant find the problem, then suggested that I need to get an extended warranty with chrysler as this problem is going to continue, So pay more money out for a problem that they should fix?

Engine stalls without warning – has happened 15 times over the last 5 months. Dealer cannot fix and has told me they don’t know what else to try.
Also having a problem with a water leak that the dealer has been unable to fix either.

Car brakes lock and am unable to start the car. Even when I am able to start the car, the accelerator (possible transmission issue) doesn’t work b/c the brakes lock up. This has now happened twice and the message boards indicate that this is a problem with a lot of Jeep Commander 2006 owners. I do not feel safe driving this car and do not want to travel with my wife and family in it in the event that this continues to occur.

1. The rear passenger seat belt would pop out due to a defective latch. Dealer replaced it to repair the problem.
2. There has been on ongoing screeching noise coming from the engine compartment in warmer weather. Generally, this occurs when it’s 80+ degrees and can occur at varyious speeds. Was at the dealer on 5/26/07 (dealer could not duplicate concern). Noise continued and brought vehicle back in on 7/16/07 (dealer couldn’t duplicate). The noise continued and brought car back to dealer on 8/4/2008 (dealer indicated windshield seal was causing wind noise and had All Star Auto Glas reseal the front windshield to attempt to correct the condition.
3. The outside temparature reading never had the correct reading. It could be 90 degrees outside, but the temperature would stay stuck on lets say 66. Had vehicle in for this issue on 5/7/2007 (dealer was not able to use scan tool to verify the issue). 7/16/2007- dealer stated the sensor was working correctly at that time. Reading was still regularly not accurate and would get stuck on a certain temperature. Finally, again on 8/5/08 had dealer address the same problem. They stated they corrected the problem by performing a flash update to CCN with latest software.
4. The most severe problem is a stalling issue. On July 13, the first incident occured. We had stopped into a shopping center on our way for vacation, as we pulled out from the parking lot all the instrument panel lights started to flash and the engine hesitated–not actually completely shutting off. Again on August 3, it occured again as we were pulling out from a parking space at church. The instrument panel lights started flickering and the engine sounded like it was about to shut off, but didn’t. The instrument panel lights turned off and the vehicle continued to run. As soon as we pulled out onto the street, ALL the instrument panel lights started flashing again. The engine again sounded like it was about to shut off. Took the car into Don-A-Vee Jeep to address this concern, the screeching noise, and the outside temperature gauge reading incorrectly. For the stalling/instrument panel lights flickering, they stated they updated PCM with latest software.
5. As an added note, I was so displeased with Jeep/Chrysler in not be able to correct these issues that I took the vehicle to an independent mechanic on 6/4/2008 for the 15,000 service. In replacing the differential fluid, they noted that the differential fluid was badly contaminated with what appeared to be water. We have never taken the vehicle near water.
This is my wife’s vehicle. She’s so afraid to drive it that we ended up purchasing a new vehicle. I can’t take the risk of putting my wife and 2 small daughters at risk. I expect that after the latest dealer "solution" the problems will continue. I have already contact a Lemon Law Attorney for consultation.

Vehicle continued stalling while is driven a low rpm. more the 25 times. vehicle was bought with 15, 200 miles. vehicle has now 52, 300. everytime is taken to service the problem was mention to the dealer technician but they can't find the problem. nov 20, 2007 i scratched the left rear fender of the vehicle with a tree while backing up. the vehicle lost power vehicle rolled back and stopped. resting on the side of the tree. pictures were taken of the damages on the vehicle . dealers technician states no problem with the vehicle. second problem backup system. assists the driver to move the vehicle safely, one sensor failed from the bumper mount. two months dealer has not repair the vehicle yet. need to replaced the entire bumper to repaired one sensor. *tr

I own a jeep commander and it has died on me for now reason now more than 7 times. i was at a stop light, sometimes on the freeway the car just stops. i step on the gas and the car doesn't move the engine shuts off and the steering wheel hardens and doesn't steer. i took it into the jeep dealer where i leased it from and they found nothing wrong with it. they told me that there are other complaints with other commander owners but they have no fix to it. they even told me that when they find what's wrong with someone else's commander they would call me so i guess they still don't know what's wrong this had been happening now a lot lately. i am going to take it back again to the dealer ship and see what they say. the passenger air bag light comes on also every now and then it comes on and stays on for like 5 to 10 minutes then goes off. *tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2006 jeep commander. while driving 45 mph, the brake pedal was depressed, but the brakes did not respond. the contact crashed into the rear of another vehicle. after the crash, the contact's vehicle stalled without warning. the air bags failed to deploy. there were no injuries and a police report was filed. the vehicle was towed. the vin was included in nhtsa campaign number: 14v43800 (electrical system). the manufacturer was not notified of the failure. the vin was not available. the approximate failure mileage was 190,000.

The check engine light comes on after starting the shifter stays in 3rd and will not shift in drive just 3rd gear leaving me to only drive in 3rd. also it won't start faulty start several times prior the check engine light coming on.

My jeep commander is throwing a code u0255 no communication with front control module there is a recall for the 08 commander and not mine can we please get this addressed please

While driving the car will shift off for no reason. it appears to be something wrong i have a new battery and don’t now why it’s losing power.. it cuts off while driving and when i made a turn but also while driving straight . also the wheels feels like they are wobbly while driving in the front. *tr

My vehicle died in the middle of me driving without warning. i was on a main road turning into a mcdonald’s when my car died. i was going about 20 when my car died. my steering locked up, couldn’t brake or accelerate, and had to pull over and turn my car off to and back on to get it running again. once i got my car started again the idle kept pulsating above one thousand rpm and would have to keep it in neutral at a stop so it would lurk forward.

Tl* the contact owns a 2006 jeep commander. the contact stated while driving 30 mph, the imposable fuel volume signal received message displayed on the instrument panel. the contact received notification of nhtsa campaign number: 14v438000 (electrical system) and took the vehicle to gwinnett chrysler dodge jeep ram (5054 ga-78, stone mountain, ga 30087) where the recall was serviced. the vehicle was repaired however, the failure recurred. the manufacturer had not been informed of the failure. the failure mileage was approximately 142,678.

Tl* the contact owns a 2006 jeep commander. while driving 30 mph, the vehicle stalled and the check engine warning indicator illuminated. the failure recurred two times and the vehicle was able to restart. the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. the manufacturer was not notified of the failure. the vin was included in nhtsa campaign number: 14v438000 (electrical system). the failure mileage was 180,588.

Tl* the contact owns a 2006 jeep commander. while the vehicle was parked, all the internal door handles fractured. the contact had to roll the windows down in order to open the doors from the outside. the vehicle was taken to a dealer where it was diagnosed that the door panels and latches needed to be replaced. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was notified. the failure mileage was 84,000.

The vehicle stalls in motion on both residential and highway and loses power steering. cruise control once you set it acceleration occurs on its own this occurred on the highway. ignition bumps out of the on position into accessory or off on it's own.

Takata recall the motor keeps dying while driving. i took it to a mechanic that told me that the motor was defective and the motor has to be replaced. the engine only has less than 85000 miles. the mechanic told us to buy a jasper motor because jasper made changes to the motor because the original motor was defective. mopar no longer makes the motor and referred us to an aer motor. the parts department at chrysler said that they are not sure or not if the original mopar motor has made the same changes to the motor that jasper has made. jasper states that changes have been made to the motor and specifically states that improvements have been made to solve the defective issues of an original 2006 motor. i am not the only one it has happened to. motors were being replaced at 75,000 miles are a common problem according to google on this model. *tr

My car will not start. this has happened several times before, and there has been no explanation as to why this happens.

We have a 2006 jeep commander and it sometimes jerks back and forth while driving sometimes it even shifts into neutral and then back to drive the power steering works only part of the time and the airbag system says its off all the time and it will shut off while driving sometimes too really frustrated with this vehicle its a disaster and waiting to happen

When i am driving on the main city road or highway i notice about three things that happen all at once. the first thing is i lose control of my steering. the second thing is it feels like my jeep went into park causing all my wheels to break for 1 to 3 second. the third thing is it feels as the engine stalled. all these things happen at the same time. this causes my jeep to stop or stall on the road sending me and my passengers to lounge forward as if i had hit an invisible wall at full force.

I went to start my 2006 jeep commander and it would turn over, but it would not start. i finally worked with it a little bit and got it to start, but then my power steering went out. i cut it off and tried it again and everything went back to normal. however, when i got going, there was a horrible gas smell coming from the rear of the vehicle. this starting issue has happened multiple times and every time the power steering goes out. the vehicle was stationary at a public place after it had been running for about 30 minutes.

Rear seatbelt latches are breaking, and susceptible to breakage. the orange release button on the seatbelts break easily. my concern is that it will happen when there's an emergency and the occupant may not be able to exit the vehicle due to the defective material in the latch release, possibly trapping the occupant. i suspect that the material used for these plastic release latches was incorrectly specified, and became brittle over time.

Vehicle stalls for no reason. usually happens when pulling from my driveway after being parked. after driving for a few hundred yards, to the intersection of the main road. upon hitting the brake and stopping, the vehicle stalled. if i had rolled into the intersection, i would have been right on a main road without engine running. no warning, it just stalls. i had thought it might be the ignition switch, but that was replaced already, and this happened again. this happens almost in the same place and situations every time. i start the vehicle, and without much delay, back out of my driveway. pull down the street, make a right turn after about 40 yards. make a left turn after about 100 yards. then move forward to the stop sign at the main intersection about 80 yards further. upon stopping, the vehicle stalls. it's happened about 10 times in the past 3 years, and twice in the past week. it surely is a danger, because i lose power and could roll into an intersection or cause another hazard.

Seat belt warning chime continually sounds when front driver or passenger seat belts are latched, the seats are occupied, and the vehicle is in motion.

The gear indicator has the prnd and it indicates what gear you are in. when you try to drive the car it indicates that it is in all gears. when it does this it stumbles really badly. you have to put it back to drive to drive normal. it can happen about 3 times a day. right after it happens the check engine light comes on for about 3 days. i have searched online and at least 50 other people with a 2006/2007 jeep commander have the same problem. some people say it happens to them (all gears light up) while they are driving. this causes their vehicle to not accelerate or "jerk" back and forth. they have to pull over and start the car again and the check engine lights up. it doesn't matter if i warm it up for over 10 minutes it will still do it when i put it on reverse or drive. i am worried it will get worse and happen like the other people online when i'm driving or on the freeway. online many people write about this problem with their 2006/2007 jeep commander. many don't know what it is.

My car stalls while turning or idling at stop lights. i know there was a recall for this however the dealership says my vin isn't included however it has stalled 10 times this month.

I have experienced on 3 separate occasions including today while driving my vehicle looses power sounds as if my transmission is not shifting or the gear shift will not shift . after i cut the off for a few minutes then i can shift my vehicle from park to drive without a loud screeching sound. today, i had to use my emergency brakes just to keep my vehicle still after i put it in park. seems as though the vehicle shifts into another gear and gets stuck until i cut my vehicle off. i believe it may be the transmission control module or transfer case issue. i know there was a recall on this vehicle for the tcm but i didn't have it done. i need help, this is getting to scary, constantly paying for a vehicle and call the manufacturer and nobody wants to do anything.

All door handles are broken and have become in operable from the inside of the vehicle. also when starting the jeep it will run for a few seconds and then shut off. after starting you can shift to drive and it puts you in drive 3 them it will quit. when u start and it shift into drive the jeep will remain running.

Tl* the contact owns a 2006 jeep commander. while driving 35 mph, the vehicle stalled without warning. the vehicle was taken to three unknown dealers, but the cause of the failure could not be determined. the manufacturer was made aware of the failure. the contact stated that there was an ignition switch recall repair performed on the vehicle. directly after the repair, the vehicle exhibited the failure. the recall details were not provided. the failure mileage was 153,000.

After having the recalled ignition and tcm replaced/reprogrammed the esp,bas and traction lights come and the two driver side brakes and tires lock up, makes a terrible grinding noise, and the vehicle slides while trying to make a turn. this problem occurs while the vehicle is in motion and without warning.

The vehicle cruise control malfunctions: now even pressing "set" at least while driving over 40 mph makes the vehicle accelerate fast even to 80 mph so i press brake pedal which does disengage cruise control. even if you turn cruise control off and then back on it keeps on happening every time you press set. i disconnected power to the cruise control.

Tl* the contact owns a 2006 jeep commander. the contact received notification of nhtsa campaign number: 14v438000 (electrical system); however, the parts to do the repair were unavailable. the contact stated that the manufacturer exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. the dealer confirmed that the parts were not available for the recall remedy. the manufacturer was made aware of the issue. the manufacturer referred the contact to the nearest dealer. the contact had not experienced a failure. parts distribution disconnect.

Chrysler jeep ,my wife and i are die hard jeep customers. our 06 commander is a safety problem!! all interior door handles are broke. the rear interior door handles will not open the doors at all. making it unsafe for any passengers,especially our children.help me make our 06 jeep commander safe again recall these handles for public safety.......

The seat belts in my third row, which i use maybe 10% of the time are broken. they broke way too early in my cars life. i never knew that i could report it until my mechanic said to. i called jeep to let them know that its a safety issue and i would like them replaced, and they declined to do so. i have had many jeep new and very old and the seat belts were never an issue, which makes me think these seat belts were defective or maybe the way the 3rd row folds down is the cause.

Vehicle was in motion and car shut down as turning right at street light. had to restart car. driver side door interior handle is broken. cannot open door. dash lights do not work, radio volume goes up as you are turning the controls down. frame is rusted...told would be rusted through in another year. car has 125,000 miles on it. i'm the only owner. normal driving, no off road travel.

1st my car has been having starting issues. the fuel pump was changed twice and that's not the issue.it seems to be coming from the wiring heading into the fuse panel in the engine. when i move it around it starts sometimes. and also when i put black tape around the wires it seems to correct the issues for weeks at a time. the problem is u never know when its gonna start or not. now my engine, traction control and esp/bas warning lights are coming on. when that happens the transmission starts going haywire and feels like its only running on 1 gear plus when i reverse it feels like something grinds in the gears. however when those warning lights go off everything seems to go back to normal. recently all the warning lights came on and the transmission over temp warning came on and my ac stopped blowing cold air and shortly after the car stalled in traffic on the highway. thank god i was able to restart it but then it felt like the car drove all the way home using 2nd gear only in the automatic transmission. from reading other issues people are having online its obvious this model is having major electrical issues that no one seems to be able to correct. i am a jeep lover but this model has completely made it difficult on me since its my only car and its so unreliable. i don't have the means to replace it right now so this situation has been unfortunate for me

Tl* the contact owns a 2006 jeep commander. while driving 65 mph, the vehicle hesitated and stalled. the vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who diagnosed that the oxygen sensor failed and needed to be replaced. the vehicle was repaired; however, the failure recurred and all the instrument cluster indicators illuminated. the vehicle was taken to marshall chrysler dodge jeep ram (140 spears ln, crittenden, ky 41030) where it was diagnosed that the speed sensor failed and needed to be replaced. the vehicle was repaired, but the failure recurred. the dealer was in the process of attempting to repair the vehicle again. the manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. the vin was included in nhtsa campaign number 14v438000 (electrical system). the approximate failure mileage was 140,000.

Tl* the contact owns a 2006 jeep commander. on several occasions, the vehicle stalled after it was started. the contact was able to restart the vehicle after several attempts. the vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the transfer actuator, nuid pump, and purge solenoid needed to be replaced. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was not notified of the failure. the approximate failure mileage was 100,000.

Interior door handle plastic housing broke on two of four doors, the driver front and passenger rear. the drive side cracked when i opened it. the passenger rear broke in half when my 5 year old daughter opened the door. this is now a safety issue as the door is very hard to open.

Replaced bezel gear selector 3 times since 2006. as of september 2016 a 4th replacement is required per golling chrysler. vehicle attempts to stall after 1-2 seconds when starting from a stopped position. the check engine light illuminates and a service message appears stating "service park assist system." several times from 2006 - 2016 the vehicle almost stalled when entering intersections of city streets. whenever condition occured the part was replaced (3 times). part causing the conditions is part# ch68004143-af prndl bezel gear selector and ch52108308-ac connector electrical (transmission). i believe the gear selector and transmission to be defective due to the frequent failure which could cause a safety incident.

This recall has been since 2014. i am a little afraid to drive this jeep for fear it will quit while driving. other people have already had an accident so how long do we have to wait for a fix. it can also cause the airbags to deploy so that's a real problem. either fix what u have instead of making more vehicle or buy them back

Just purchased, car fax shows open recall.

The ac/heater control until has a short when you push the breaks it goes off. plus it has affected my nav/radio system. i am afraid that my vwhicle is going to catch on fire. you can hit a bump while driving and it will work. the nav/radio system will turn on when it wants but as soon as you put the vehicle in reverse or tap the breaks it goes off. sometimes it smells like burnt plastic on the control panel where the ac/heater is located. i have spoke with the local jeep dealership near me. they will not look at it without wanting to charge me an outrageous prices. this is not my fault and the local dealership is acting like i made a mistake and tore up my vehicle. i can get no answer out of them.

Unknown reason for lost of motor oil, no observed source of a leak.

2006 jeep commander randomly will not start. battery tests fine...took it to the dealer and paid over $400 and the replaced the starter and yellow solinoid cable which brings power to the starter. still will not start occasionally. the dash lights up, but the engine doesn't turn over...wait 5 minutes and it may start at other times it won't. very frustrating, because it is random...may go a week starting fine, and then suddenly it won't start. sometimes this happens first thing in the morning, sometimes only after short 5 minute trips to the store, and sometimes after long trips. also, i already had the ignition switch replaced due to recall.

All the electrical components go off and on i.e. a/c, lights on the dashboard and radio then causes the breaks to stop working, while driving! the car keeps stalling out especially while driving and in park!!!

2006 jeep commander with 93000. i have had serviced multiple times over brakes and suspension. brakes will just grind when trying to stop at times. brakes have been replaced and problem still occurs. every mechanic has said everything looks good. had bigotires do 3 inspections on brakes and suspension and everything checked out! suspension- i have had services 3 times. all new parts have been put on front drivers side yet problem still persist. popping noise and squeaking when turning and hitting speed bumps or pot holes and very noisy when backing up. lighting has also started to go off and on! i believe something is wrong with the lighting. sometimes when i turn them on they do not come on and once i turned them off and they did not turn off and made battery go dead but once jumps they were back to normal except my back tail light which i have tried having replaced multiple times does not work anymore and front passenger side head light has some major issues! also it is very hard to see when it rains even with brand new wipers there just wasn't much thought put into the commanders! too many blind spots and also door handles on the inside easily break off!

While driving the service rear park assist message came on and the check engine light came on. when this happens all the lights around the transmission letters on the dashboard start to flash and the transmission starts to slip. this happens when you accelerate. have had vehicle at the dealership for 3 weeks now and have had no solution to the problem . am very concerned about transmission slipping when pulling into traffic.

My jeep commander will start accelerating excessively and will not stop until i disable the cruise control. this is extremely dangerous. the first time it happened i had to slam on the brakes and go into the ditch just to avoid a car.

Over the past several years,all four interior door handles have broken. the damage occurred with nothing more than normal usage. the breakage has left all doors incredibly difficult to open. this breakage could slow an occupants ability to exit the vehicle in an emergency situation. i have seen many other owners of jeeps complaining of the same issue. i feel jeep should be made aware of this apparent design flaw and owners should be provided compensation for the repair.

My jeep didn't pull correctly, it back fire and wind. we took it to chrysler to get it fix. the mechanic told us that the solenoid went bad... so were charged $405 for a converter, $357 for a solenoid, $7.75 for a sealer, and $3.60 for a nut none... total labor and parts $1930.31... today we go to pick it up, and it still makes the same noise and the problem worsen. we left it there to be fixed again... at the moment we are out of $2000, no car, and then had the nerve to tell me it was something else wrong with my car and it'll be $800 more to fix it. needless to say, i told them i wanted to speak with the owner, he said he'll call me back.. not even two minutes later, he goes... "we'll take care of it...

This has been the 3rd time this type of event happens, the first time was at a city street driving straight forward at 30-35mph and the engine started stalling, truck completely went off, head lights would go on and off, along with my interior dashboard indicators and media center. second time, same thing, and the third time while driving at about 35-40mph in a city street and gradually slowing down to 10-15mph to make a left the truck completely went off, head lights would go on and off, along with my interior dashboard indicators and media center. it seem like i had turned off the engine completely for like a split second. i though it might’ve been that i hit the key with my knee, but i pulled over restarted the engine after 15 min, and the problem continued. all the lights would go on and off and the engine power would shut down, when putting the gears, it would sound very forcing. i turned it off again and waited 30 min, restarted the truck again it did the problem for a few seconds and then it was like nothing ever happened.

While driving al dash lights will light up and heat will shut off.. come back on and happens again. there’s no certain times it happens wheneve it wants to between 1-15 times a day driving and parked. sunroof leaks through tubes into passenger side floor board and freezes windshield if temp is low. transmission overheated warning comes on and transmission/ and or fluid is fine. have had all issues checked and they can not find the problem! also need is reading code that suddenly my key isn’t registered since this has been happening and my auto start won’t work because of the key not being linked to my car anymore. this is unsafe and eventually will stop me from being able to drive my car. the lights all come on and then go off while driving on any street any speed or even parked. heat shuts off while lights are on and comes back on after they shut off.

Jeep ignition switch/cylinder intermittently not starting ignition and problem has worsened. acceleration jumping intermittently occurs even when breaking and stopped. windshield sometimes makes whistling/roaring noise at medium to high speed. right side of jeep’s undercarriage makes vibrating noise periodically and pulls jeep to the right while driving forward on streets and highways and when making turns. we believe we had ignition switch/cylinder problem fixed with dealer before are again having problems. we want to have necessary problems fixed with dealer as these problems are being listed under jeep but we haven’t received all recall notices possibly because of moving. airbag sensor and other sensors periodically appear and disappear. would you please inform us of what issues above the dealer would be required to fix at no charge and how we may go about this. thank you

2006 jeep commander vehicles is shutting off randomly while driving and the steering wheel is locking up. also the lights on the dash board flicker randomly. mechanics could not find anything wrong. there is no recalls on my specific vin but for other 2006 jeep commanders. i do not want my family and i driving down the highway and it’s does this and we die then you finally say oops yeah there’s a recall on that...

On christmas i backed the jeep out of the driveway so i could drive my truck. bumped the curb slightly while parking and vehicle died. started right back up so i didn't think much of it. today my wife took the kids to school in it and ran fine. parked for two hours and went to start and it will crank but not turn over. fuel gauge doesn't read correctly. at full it says half a tank and while you are driving it may drop to below empty with a full tank. i have been reading all the reports about the 2006 commander and a lot of people seem to be having this starting problem. i haul my family around in it because we can't all fit in my truck but i don't feel safe in it because you never know when it's gonna cut out and die. my kids range from 1 week to 11 and i don't really want them in it. i'm thinking it a fuel pump or wiring issue. both issues occurred in my driveway or right in front of my house. *tr

After driving for short amount of time ( 15-20 minutes) the transmission seems to lag into shifting. there is also a problem when trying to manually shift gears. tried shifting into low gear at stop light, and the indicator on the dash stays in ' d' and will not engage in other lower gears. it also appears to lag when traveling at a stead speed, about 30-45 miles per hour.

Problem with ignition switch causes dash not to work and car not to be able to start most of time. key does not stay in proper position in ignition. vehicle is stationary and in motion when this happens while driving on city streets. *tr

For the passed 3 years our vehicle has switched gears from drive to 3rd gear, while driving. the vehicle jolts and changes gear for a few months and returns back to normal. we continue to use it at 3rd gear. there is no way to change it back to drive manually. we've taken it in to auto shops and the symptoms return. *tr

My vehicle stalls and cuts off when stopped at stop signs and traffic lights. the engine also shakes and acts as if it wants to die while driving. i took my vehicle in for recalls after i left the service center it once again cut off at the first stop light i came to. *tr

2006 jeep commander 4x4 dies at low speed. almost caused accident on freeway. had the ignition recall taken care of. hoping that it was the problem. it was not... now trying to sell vehicle and don't want to cuz i would have to have someone else get hurt. in that death trap the jeep now sits in my side yard my wife refuses to drive it. i'm looking for any ideas on what to do? please help

I bought my 1st new car ever hoping to keep it forever. i treat it very well all services done on time and with top quality product. at 105,000 miles my valve dropped in the engine ruining the complete block. this happened in my driveway as i started it to leave. costing me 8,278.40 to replace my engine. after this i have learned this is a common problem to which chrysler has yet to admit fault! i will hold out hope and keep paying that engine bill fingers crossed someday they will compincate me.

Tranmissiom going out. gear not shifting into drive.

While driving the car will shit off for no reason. it appears to be something wrong i have a new battery and don’t now why it’s losing power.. it cuts off while driving and when i made a turn but also while driving straight . also the wheels feels like they are wobbly while driving in the front

Tl* the contact owns a 2006 jeep commander. the contact stated that while the vehicle was parked, the ignition was turned to off position however, after exiting the vehicle, the contact noticed that the engine was still running. the contact re-entered the vehicle and placed the key in the ignition, shifted the gear shifter and the vehicle started revving up. after several minutes, the vehicle returned to normal operation with the seat belt warning light illuminated. the vehicle was taken to jacksonville chrysler jeep dodge ram arlington (9600 atlantic blvd., jacksonville, fl 32225) to be diagnosed however, the mechanic was unable to duplicate the failure. the vehicle was not repaired. the failure recurred intermittently. the manufacturer was a made aware of the failure. the failure mileage was approximately 116,000.

I purchased the vehicle from the oranegeburg auto auction after trying to sell the vehicle i discovered that odometer had been rolled back

I have a 2006 jeep commander that i bought 2 months ago. it has been one problem after another. first of all the first day it rained the whole entire cab was soaked, come to find out that there is a problem with the sunroof drainage of these jeeps. the drain lines don't stay connected to the floor and when that occurs the carpet get drenched. i had to pull all of the carpet out of the jeep because of mold concerns. secondly shortly thereafter the check engine light came on the first time i drove the jeep. took it too a mechanic and the code showed a crank sensor and a cam sensor. got both of those replaced and it required a driveshaft repair kit. another day later the check engine light went off again. the truck started to shake and shimmy so we had to pull over on the side of a highway because it wasn't safe. took it into another mechanic that was closer to where i was having the issues and they put another set of crank and cam sensors in again. supposingly i was good to go but just 2 days later the check engine light came back on.went back to another mechanic that was close in proximity to where i was having trouble in which the truck started to shake and shimmy again. this mechanic found a short to the ground in altanater unit which required a new altanater because the other one wasn't pulling enough voltage. today (sept 5th) went to start the truck and it stalled again and when i restarted it the check engine light was back on. i have spent well over $2000 on this situation and it still isn't fixed. i have read a lot of other customer complaints about this model as well as others who are having the same problem. there should be a recall on this from chrysler to fix whatever issues these cars are having. they have been getting away with this crap way too long now. going down the freeway 70 plus miles an hour and all of a sudden the check engine light comes on.

Worst vehicle ever! we got it with around 98k miles on it, and it now only has 103k miles on it and in the last 4k we've put over $5k into it trying to get it to run. we had to put a new transmission in ($2k) and have the lifters in the engine replaced ($2,600). currently it's been shutting off on its own a few seconds after i start it and giving random "transmission over temp" and "service 4x4 system" messages even though there's not a problem with those systems. i turn the key, it runs for 3 seconds, then shuts off. sometimes it does this several times in a row and then won't start at all. other times it starts fine so it's ridiculously hard to diagnose. sometimes when it's doing it's shut down bit, you can get it to stay on a little longer by revving the engine, and it will let you pull out of the driveway, but then shuts off in the middle of the street. the sun roof leaks horrifically, even after i've tried the "clip the nipples off the bottom of the hoses" trick.

When i accelerate it sometimes says something like transmission temp high and beeps

Transmission over temp keeps appearing after fluid, shift solenoid, and filters have been changed. shift solenoids where new from chrysler and still it states transmission is over temp.

While driving the 2006 keep commander the vehicle will start stalling from driving as you press the gas it will not pull and make a loud noise and turn off. there was a lot of smoke that came from the hood of the car. when you try to start it back up it will not start and keep making a weird noise like it’s out of gas. the gas tank is full and it still want start. the truck was towed to a mechanical shop and they advised me it was a bad engine.

Car rolls in park from time to time unless the emergency brake is set. makes very loud grinding noise when in reverse afterward. has "service 4wd system" message. no mechanic has been able to identify the problem.

While driving i smelt plastic burning and the floor in the backseat was on fire. within 5 minutes my car was engulfed, it was totaled,

I was on a side street and rolled over i had just bought the car none of the airbags deployed

Our 2006 jeep commander has had a recurring problem of stalling at random times, while both driving and idling. every day we start the vehicle but cannot drive it right away because it stalls out if we don't wait at least 5 minutes to "warm it up". another example, we were driving on a city street and turning left in an intersection and it stalled out while in motion and lost control of steering and braking. i noticed that there have been recalls for thousands of 2006 jeep commanders, but our vin # shows no recalls for our car. we are having the same exact problem with this truck as the other owners of recalled 2006 jeep commanders. it is currently in the shop for the third time and the mechanics cannot recreate the stall while moving issue and cannot figure out why it is hesitating and stalling. this is my 16 year old new driver's vehicle and i'm afraid for her safety.

Tl* the contact owns a 2006 jeep commander. the contact stated that while driving at various speeds, several warning lights became illuminated. additionally, the headlights became dim, the radio volume independently lowered, speedometer and tachometer fluctuated. the vehicle was taken to bald hill dodge chrysler jeep ram located at 1035 bald hill rd, warwick, ri 02886, (844) 847-4671) however, the mechanic was unable to duplicate the failure. the contact stated that several years ago, the alternator was replaced however, the replacement of the alternator failed to eliminate the failure. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was made aware of the failure. the approximate failure mileage was 126,000.

While driving on the highway, at highway speed the car shut off with out warning. while driving the car on the street or pulling out my driveway the car will shut off with out notice / warning

The vehicle is constantly stalling....and has to be restarted. this occurs at stop lights, while idling, while starting to brake so you don’t hit the car in front of you. if it doesn’t stall instead it will rev up the rpms on its own while you are braking and jump forward... also this occurs with your foot on the brake it will still jump forward. problem continues.

4 out of 7 seat belts will not click in. one of those that won’t click in can sometimes go in but then if pulled will come out.

While driving this vehicle through a stone tunnel on the blue ridge parkway that had no lighting within the tunnel the jeep suffered an total electrical failure and a total blackout took place. thankful that i was not killed and that no one else was in the tunnel at the time, the jeep was coasted to the outside of the tunnel and off to the side on the grass. had anyone been coming in either direction i may have had enough light but it was pitch black. i have read of hundreds of electrical failures in this jeep vehicle and wonder why i was never notified. this is a product warranty issue for jeep and it nearly was also responsible for vehicular homicide! the jeep just cut off all electric and not even dashboard lights afforded visual. i have the park rangers report and she said this most likely was total electrical failure. i have pictures from the accident as the jeep hit the stone tunnel side and then the steering rod on the right broke. the insurance company chose to junk the jeep and i was left without even a rental car. i have pictures and the rangers report and my report if requested. how do i contact jeep for a product liability complaint?

My jeep loses power every time i drive it stalls out while driving (scary when it happened on the freeway) at times it stops shifting and then slams like the whole transmission fell out of jeep.

Check engine light came on. engine surged rpms and lost all power while driving. i put it in neutral and started it back up. upon parking, rpms surged again, vehicle tried to pull forward before the rpms dropped and stalled the engine in drive. i checked used my scan tool to check the code and it came back p1521 which is for wrong engine oil. i used royal purple 5w20 in my last oil change. it drove the vehicle for 2098 miles before this incident occurred with no issues in between. i noticed the 4.7 litre had a recall done for the same exact issue and it being a software update for the power control module.

Had the ignition switch replaced according to recall. after a few months, it has become very difficult to get key to turn to start vehicle. took the vehicle to larry miller in albuquerque nm, they want to charge me 300.00 to repair. according to previous owner it worked fine before taking it in for recall.

It’s started off shutting off then stalling now there’s no start at all no click no dash pictures i took it to a mechanic who told me my ecm needed to be repaired i seen all sorts of recalls the car doesn’t start and was fine before then

Ignition problem ..dealer replaced ignition due a recall on vehicle, but the problem was not fixed.dash turns off suddenly while driving and car stops suddenly too.have to start it sgain. dealer replaced the ignition switch to prevent this to happen, but it's happening now more than any time. people say that the problem wasn't solved after replacing the ignition.

This issue has happened three times now, i have been driving on the freeway at about 70 mph and all of a sudden there is a ding on the dash board and the car stalls, and the engine light comes on. once you shut down the car and start it again the car works fine but the engine light stays on for a couple of hours, according to jeep they charge for a diagnosis and i see online that this is happening a lot in my type of vehicle but jeep has yet to acknowledge it. i think it is very dangerous since i have been driving on a freeway where people are driving as fast or faster than me and could cause a problem.

A window went about 1/3 of the way down and stopped. could not get it to go up or down after that. the vehicle was parked at the time. we wondered if it was the motor. we watched a video on the internet on how to check it and it said to check the wires behind the door panel because it is a common problem for this type of vehicle to have broken wires and low and behold that's exactly what had happened. windows need to open and close.

Transmission over temp warning comes on periodically caddying another fan to cone on. if you turn off vehicle and crank back it goes away for a while. seems to be worse when the car is idling but also happens while driving. this has been going on for over a year.

Vehicle is having issues getting stuck in gear and not shifting unless you stop, turn off, and when turned back on will work for a while and then happen again. 3rd row seat belt doesnt work.

The problem started in january 2019. the vehicle started having idling issues, cold start in morning idles around 900, when put in reverse it dips to around 500 and wobbles back and forth while backing up, put in drive and it would be ok but would stall sometimes at stop sign- check engine light never came on. i had throttle body cleaned and fuel system service done and the engine light came on same day. took it to the dealer for recalls and they replaced throttle body also. it drove ok for a day and i have the unstable idle back and the rpm jumps up while in drive but stopped at a light. about a week ago i am slowing down to stop at a light ahead and it starts vibrating like it is going to stall and the etc and tcs light came on and i shut it off and it cranked right back up and drove it the rest of the day with no issue. etc light will come on while driving and cause no issues other than the unstable idle. today-5-10-19, coming home and start to turn left and etc and tcs light come on and it seems like it is in limp mode because there is a loss of power and etc light is now blinking, so i pull in a parking lot, cut it off for five minutes and it cranks right back up with no lights on and i am able to drive 5 miles home.

Front driver and passenger seat belts can only be buckled if the release button is depressed. seat belt warning light is on.

The inside door handles are breaking apart. mine have not gotten to where they will not operate yet but they are loose i am concerned about the safety of getting stuck in the jeep if they quit working. online they are aftermarket fixes for this problem which means there are a lot of jeeps with this problem. i can not believe that this is not a safety problem that is being over looked.

Takata recall as i was driving my car on the four lane my car started to have white rubber smelling smoke fill the car and all my dash lights went crazy, my radio kicked off and my speakers and my turn signals quit working. i started to panic and stopped on the side of the rode. i had my kids in the car so i first removed my children then tried to find the problem. at this point my car was completely full of smoke n it like as if it was burning down. my wiring in the cars passenger side rear floor board had caught on fire ! the fire burnt through my floor and my floor mats. i almost choked to death on the smoke and had to take the battery out of the car to kill the power and dump water on the floor.

The vehicle door handles do not function on any of the four doors. they all have the same defect and the only way to exit the vehicle is to let the window down if you are able to and unlock the door from the outside. this is a safety issue when the vehicle is smoking, fire, etc., and passengers are unable to get out of vehicle. this is a defect with this vehicle..

At 100k with no warning, engine runs hot, i wait for 30 min to cool down.. drive again and it runs hot.. mechanic says head gasket blown..smdh.. along with that it was raining and the sunroof starts leaking. 8 months prior i had to replace the transmission. what a jeep and i am still paying on it.!! the jeep people needs to recall these and at least reimburse people, now im stuck with buying a 5000 engine on a set income...basically couldve bought a brand new car with the funds i put out so far..

The back passenger interior door handle broke. i feel is it unreasonable to have a working handle to exit a vehicle. now since my son is older, i am concerned with his ability to exit out safely in an emergency. the poor design creates a safety issue for owners and their passengers.

Vehicle stalls randomly, losing power brakes and steering. this is a major safety issue. unfortunately, there needs to be solid a resolution as people can't spend tons of money on what the issue "might" be and then get back on the road in this death trap to only have it stall again.

I just purchased this 2006 jeep commander and noticed after purchase the airbag indicator light came on. read later this is a common problem. did manufacturer ever put out a recall for this? is this a sensor issue?

The interior door handle casing cracked and completely crumbled. it is nearly impossible to open the door from the inside because of this. a quick google search shows that it is a prevalent problem and not an issue caused by normal wear. this can be a serious hazard if the driver needs to exit the vehicle quickly and cannot access another door or roll down the window to open it from the outside.

Vehicle was sold with no lights in back, including break and reverse lights, broken seat belts in back seats and one back seat that does not fold down which blocks rear view, and finally with bald tires that needed to be replaced immediately. the lights were supposedly fixed by the dealership's repair shop but after only a few weeks the lights were not working. the seat belts were supposed to be replaced and we were told that replacements were ordered but the dealership never called back to confirm that they arrived and ready for installation, they still have not been replaced. we were told that the tires and seat folding down were not safety issues and had to replace the tires ourselves. the seat still does not fold down and the lights on the back of the vehicle still don't stay on.

Seatbelts do not latch properly and become undone while tightening. they also become stuck.this could pose a serious problem in the event of an accident.

Computer problems after n23 & p73 recall work completed 11/2015. when driving vehicle after recall work completed, when stopped & shifted into reverse, vehicle would not move in reverse, engine revered up when pressesd accelerator as if it were in neutral. also now have indicator msg tht says " service 4 wheel drive". called chrysler & they made appt with another dealership to check/redo the recall work. dealership said the first time recall work was done it was done incorrectly & chrysler paid them to redo recall work. con tied to have same issues. called chrysler again & they made appt with local dealership to recheck vehicle. was told by dealership that "service 4 wheel drive" indicator comes on after so many miles on vehicle & only means to have normal maintanance performed on vehicle, cost $400, has nothing to do with recall work. explained that indicater came on after recall work done not before so mileage hadn't really changed. morlan chrysler attempted resetting recall work & insisted i had to pay them to perform recall work. called chrysler & was reinbursed for the cost to have recall redone for 2nd time. continued to have same issues & dealership & chrysler stated it's no longer a recall issue. although the vehicle is doing exactly what the recall notice says the recall is supposed to fix that the vehicle wasn't doing prior to the recall work being done. now 2 yrs later vehicle is still shifting itself into neutral when trying to shift into reverse it is also shifting in neutral driving 60 mph on highway making it an extremely unsafe vehicle to drive. still continues to have the " service 4 wheel drive" indicator on. dealership says it will cost $800 to fix.problem is not mechanical because vehicle can be turned off after shifting problems, essentially resetting computer, & will shift normally again. www.jeepforum.com has numerous jeep owners with same iss

This might be tamara inflators. service light is on for passenger side front airbag

2006 commander stalls on highway and then starts right back up. happens at any speed.

Began experiencing issues with starting at all after the ignition switch recall was worked on and resolved. the jeep won't start at different times, different weather conditions. the proper positioning and the vehicle acknowledging it being in park is an issue. the jeep requires parking to be forced -using the gear lever shift from drive to park and look for the jolt to indicate it's in the appropriate gear, in park

When we first got the car it was working like any normal car, however, after less than a month we started to notice a lot of change. the first problem we started to see was the whole screen turned off we are able to play music but only radio station that was saved. we are unable to tune/seek to a new radio station. then we started to notice during the rainy season that water would enter into our car. after many tries of solving this issue, it is still happening to our car. the section where the petals are always wet and we have closed the sunroof and the cover but, nothing seems to work. now today the check engine turn on and also the oil in the dashboard behind the steering wheel. we are worried about the safety of the car and hope to see changes soon from you. thank you for reading the issue we constantly face.

Keep getting "transmission over temp" code and cooling fans turn on. dealer say it cannot be recreated. if vehicle is shut off and started back on code goes away.

All the lights on my dash panel went on & i lost power of the vehicle driving down the road. it came back on then off & on. this has happened several times. my catalytic converter has broken into a few pieces. the dealership said this happens often to these vehicles & believes there is a recall on them. i have had my vehicle 4 1/2 yrs & this is the 2nd time it needs to be replaced. my struts have gone a few times on my 2006 jeep commander. the rear seatbelt in the middle & driver rear don't latch & when they do its really tight on my daughter. lastly multiple issues with the rear doors both passenger & driver sides. the handles don't work all the time. they have both been fixed 3 different occasions. they open when they feel like it. the child lock is not on.

While sitting at a stoplight vehicle will not accelerate feels as the loss of power. vehicle does not want to move then told it's in some sort of safety mode i think the lead frame is failing from what i can tell. vehicle sitting at a stoplight fails to accelerate barely moves

Jeep commander 2006 limited 5.7 l engine. the complaint is as follows: while driving, at random, slow and medium speeds, all the dashboard lights activate at one time followed by immediate loss of engine power. (at no time did my knee hit the key or ignition cylinder) this issue does not clear up on its own. the only solution to avoid an accident is to immediately put into neutral, pull off the road or highway as quickly as possible. (at this time, the car is sputtering severely or stalls) next step- turn the key to off position, wait a few seconds and re start the vehicle. it starts and runs normally. the loss of power and dash light activation is occurring every other day. upon my own further investigation, many reports have been logged (with basically the same complaint) on carcomplaints.com, with additional video proof on u tube ( just type in jeep commander dashboard haywire) with several videos of the incident. chyrsler customer care claims ( as of today) to know nothing about it - told me to call local dealer, local jeep dealer (car was purchased new) was contacted- they claim to now nothing about it. told both agencies to get off their butt to look at car complaints.com or just view the numerous u tube videos. with this many complaints, i find it surprising that chrysler to not be aware of this issue. i have followed all recalls and had the ignition lock cylinder and reprogram the final drive control module completed many months before problem occurred. any assistance in resolving this serious safety issue would be greatly appreciated.

Tl* the contact owns a 2006 jeep commander. the contact stated that while driving 40 mph, the front passenger side tire ball joint failed. the contact stated that after the ball joint fractured, the steering wheel seized as well as braking was difficult due to a brake fluid leak. the contact veered off into oncoming traffic and was only able to stop the vehicle after the axle fractured. the vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic for diagnosis but the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer or dealer was not made aware of the failure. the failure mileage was approximately 120,000.

All the electrical on my dash most the time is lines and flickers, but decides to show up once in a while for a minute or two. my big problem is starting the car. it does this click click sound most the time but then starts once in a while out of the blue. i have bought a new battery and alternator within the last year. it also slams from gear to gear! i have had four different diagnostic tests done by different places & i have been fighting with this for a couple years!

2006 jeep commander limited 4wd. 179,000 miles. traction assist is activating while driving straight on dry pavement causing unexpected deceleration power loss. while driving on flat dry paved highway, at approximately 40-45 mph, the vehicle began to stumble and lose power. the traction control light was blinking during this time. during which time, when i turn off the traction assist via the button, the effect disappeared. no fault codes were stored or set. this issue has just begun to occur periodically and has happened approximately 5 times. have almost had a crash event occur when trying to merge into traffic, and had to turn off the traction assist via the button on the center console.

Air bag light is on

Intermittent inability to start vehicle. my jeep commander 2006 has a problem that is being discussed all over the internet in chat rooms and blogs but is not being acknowledged by jeep. the issue occurred when jeep was in parked position. i am a disabled man and i was left stranded in very cold weather for two hours with a car that would not start. it had nothing to do with the starter, or the solenoid. this seems to be a serious issue with jeeps and a safety issue to the owner especially if the owner is stranded and has no heat and unable to walk to get help. i am requesting nhtsa to look into this because jeep is stonewalling the public and this is a serious and dangerous issue that the public should be aware of by way of a recall. people rely upon their automobiles and expect them to operate accordingly and not to have random and intermittent engine non starts for no apparent reason and with no explanation from jeep and no solution to the problem going on 9 years now. please investigate this widespread problem known to be an issue with jeep commander.

When moving at a speed of greater than 3mph, the passengers seat seatbelt sensors indicates the passenger is not wearing a seat belt and sings constantly. the system does not register that the seatbelt is engaged.

2006 jeep commander v8 4.7. i have two young children and this is seriously a safety hazard that jeep/chrysler will not address or recall. almost all 2006 jeep commanders have this issue and it’s very dangerous and a passenger could become easily trapped inside the vehicle during a fire/accident due to the doors not being able to be opened because of the broken door handles. the handles are not a separate piece that you can just replace. the whole entire door panel needs to be replaced and it’s very costly approximately $500 per door or more. and all 4 handles are broken this is a hassard and over 500.00 per handle to be fixed professional and for safety is ridilous ..something needs to be done about this and i have seen thousands of complaints regarding this issue..paying good money for a vehicle and this is not considered an issue this is so not right to any of us that own this vehichle"06 jeep commander and all 4 handles are broken this is a hassard and over 500.00 per handle to be fixed professional and for safety is ridilous ..something needs to be done about this and i have seen thousands of complaints regarding this issue..paid $36,000 for this vehicle brand new and still original owner but unable to drive at the moment due to doors and safety issue. this is not considered an issue by jeep chrysler this is so not right to any of us that own this vehichle". extremely dangerous!! this has been a problem for some time now with my vehicle just gotten worse over time and have contacted jeep on several occasions to have fixed they will not cover the costs. we should not be responsible for this repair it is defective materials/product and they need to be responsible for these repairs!!!!! or take the car back and give us a new one!!!!

Transmission stop shifting properly and shuttering in motion..took it to transmission shop, they said transmission needed replaced. got new transmission, still had same problem. took it back to shop, they did a second repair and charged me $2959.50. they didnt described what they did the second time. i had no problems since..so far.

Was driving down the road @ 40 mph & my horn started sounding non stop & kept draining my battery. turns out it is a faulty clock spring, & my vehicle only has 51k. the part to fix is retailed over $800 & you cannot get ahold of one because they are on national back order. was told chrysler will not do a recall because this vehicle is over 10 years old, but it only has 51k & this has been recalled on other jeep/chrysler models. since it is hooked to my airbag, this should be a safety issue, but chrysler does not see it that way. will never by another jeep because of this.

The door handles have completely disentegrated an the windows no longer operate. the seat belts work intermittently and the door locks unlock an lock at random. the engine starts an stops on it's own. this vehicle was my dream vehicle but now i feel totally endangered by the lack of care and design by jeep. i feel it is a ticking time bomb ready to cause danger at some point to me or my family

Tl* the contact owns a 2006 jeep commander. while driving 30 mph, the vehicle would not stop when the contact applied the brakes. as a result, the contact's vehicle rear ended another vehicle. the air bags did not deploy. a police report was filed. there were no injuries. the vehicle was able to be driven home. the vehicle was repaired, but then deemed unable to be driven by the insurance company. the dealer was not contacted. the manufacturer was called and did not assist since the crash occurred in 2012. the contact received a notice for nhtsa campaign number: 14v438000 (electrical system) in 2014. the failure mileage and vin were unknown.

First the seat belt wouldn't click into place without pressing down the red button. now even if you do that the seat belt light/dings will be on throughout the ride. i see on the internet many others having this issue.

Valve seals went in engine causing catastrophic fail. shut off vehicle, went to start again, started but started to make a horrible noise, would not stay started.

The vehicle has power failure while driving and while stationary with engine running! the dashboard instrument panel, gauges, lights, hvac, radio, etc. shuts off but the vehicle still runs, and it continues to turn off and on over and over again. also, it occurs whether on a smooth surface in motion or when you hit a bump in the road, and it occurs when the vehicle is sitting still with engine running. it makes you feel like the vehicle is about to shut off. this occurs every time i drive my vehicle, regardless of the location. there is a safety recall for the ignition switch, and i feel this problem may be related to that issue.

Tl* the contact owns a 2006 jeep commander. the contact noticed a strong odor of exhaust fumes inside the vehicle. the contact inspected the vehicle and indicated that the exhaust manifold bolt was structurally unsound. the vehicle had not been diagnosed by a dealer or an independent mechanic. the manufacturer was notified of the failure. the failure mileage was not available.

Door handle broken all 4 doors

While raining water drains into vehicle from sunroof causing electrical problems. lights constantly flickering, dashboard lights constantly turning on and off, interior water damage, rusting inside components. this incident happens constantly forcing me to keep headlights on high beam at all times while the car is stationary as well as in motion on streets as well as highways. this problem causes unnecessary problems being that while the car is going through this the turning signals, wiper blades, air conditioning turn off and on. even though my car was serviced under warranty for rear seatbelts the belts are constantly jamming keeping my children captive and at some points it will not successfully latch.

Water leak right side a pillar wet floor mat also water dripping down from front of the sunroof and behind controls on the dash stereo screen flashes on and off cannot read screen.

Engine died while driving on highway twice

Engines surges continuosly. rpm's surge.

The door handles of my jeep commander 2006 have snapped. thr vehicle was stationary. first it was the rear drivers side door, then before i could schedule to get that one fixed, the rear passenger side door handle snapped. i accepted that it may be coincidence, until one month later, the same thing happened to my divers side door! it can't be coincidence and now i have difficulty getting out of my vehicle. it definitely poses a safety issue.

My favorite, jeep commander 2006 3.7 v6. 103600 mileage. the car shuts down without warning. this has been happening from last november. i feel like i'm in a death trap because when cars going 60 - 70 mph on i-495 and car lost power. all i can really do is pray that my family don't get killed. the dealer fixed flipping key problem at the same year of summer because of the recall. this is really not related i believe. it happened 6 times mostly winter season between november through january eastern time last year, and this stalling problem came back last sunday dec 10th, 2017 while driving on northern state parkway to micro center in ny. 3 times already this season. the best way only i found for our safety. slowly move over on the shoulder finding place to stop while speeding down, and have one chance of stop to break vehicle without power. however, luckily it starts again and runs normal. the dealer, daimler chrysler consumer center. they never care about this issue and keep charging for the service without a solution. my research is on going to find ecm, pcma, and fcm problems. i am scared for my families safety. the car cuts off while driving on highway. any ideas, please please please please please help us.

I was in an accident and the airbags did not deploy. i was in town traveling about 30-35 mph, the car i was following switched lanes and i hit a car that was completely stopped. the airbag warning light had been going on and off for about 6 months. i didn't think too much of it because it is not the only warning light that sometimes does that. i figured the electronics probably didn;t like all the water that pours into the frame and onto the drivers floor.

The first time it happened i was pulling out into busy traffic from a side street. i accelerated quickly and when i backed my foot off the peddle the car continued to accelerate. i tapped the peddle a couple times thinking it was caught on the floor matt (not).it back off and then it did it briefly again before correcting itself. this was all in a 10 sec. time period..... the second time it happened i was on the highway. i stepped down to pass a car and the peddle moved to the floor and stayed there for about 15 seconds, released and went to the floor again for about 10 seconds. i had my foot on the break trying not to hit other cars ahead of me. everytime i lift my foot off the brake we went faster. then it corrected itself again. i pulled off the road the second time and checked to make sure there was nothing on the floor board that might have interfered with the peddle but there was nothing. i was not using the cruise control in either occurrence. there was no accident but could have easily been. i did have a passenger in the car.

Interior door handle on passenger side crumbled. the lever hangs loose and you are unable to open the door and exit using the handle. someone has to open the door from outside. the vehicle was parked with a passenger trying to exit. the driver side now has play in the handle and i suspect it will not be long before it crumbles as well. i contacted the dealership about a repair kit and was told that jeep only had a kit for another vehicle and i would have to replace the entire door panel for $350.00+. 3 pictures attached. broken handle, broken pieces, and driver handle intact.

The interior door handles crack and break: this is safety hazard trap for many consumer because you can't open the door from the inside if in an accident or in an emergency. i have been following this complaint since this vehicle came out on the market several hundred and so far nothing has been to correct this problem. only having the consumer fix it their self which is very costly to fix. my dealer shop quoted me 500.00 per door and i have 2 that are badly cracked and broken : please consider a recall on the door handles and think of the safely of adults and children . this happens by just opening a door due to poor product select on the manufacturer.

Intermittently will not start. turn key on, get a half crank, then nothing. after 5-10 minutes of trying, it will finally start. had an ignition recall, which the service was performed by jeep dealer. they also replaced the starter. still having the issue after having it looked at 4 times. they cannot replicate the issue when it is in the shop, so they cannot find any problem with it. purchased the vehicle used in 09/15 and have been having the issue ever since.

Regardless of distance traveled, outside temperature, the 'transmission over temp' message appears on the dash. had coolant flushed 2x but message still appears intermittently. had mechanic look at more than a few times, however could not replicate message and thus no resolution/fix to problem. jeep recently had ignition switch recall completed (thought that would never happen) but 'transmission over temp' would occur prior to that recall being completed. thought the two were connected somehow. main concern is the engine does not overhear, temp reads below middle mark but when transmission message appears, after a few minutes, transmission feels 'off' or jumpy. something is definitely happening. not safe to drive, not confident taking it on long trips because of possible damage that may occur, not to mention being stranded. this is my girlfriends truck and i'm not comfortable having her drive too far, especially in the evening. his is inconvenient because we take care of our vehicles, this truck has low miles, 62,000. would really like to resolve this because we love the trick but cannot trust taking it on trips, towing our boat which was the original purpose of having truck. what a stressful vehicle to have. very dissatisfied with this truck. again, the transmission over temp would occur intermittently, on the highway at times, in traffic, small trips, after sitting parked after a short trip, message reappears once truck is started again. no rhyme of reason to this.

Re: ignition switch recall (p41): i am now going on 2 years with a faulty iginition switch that has been recalled. when i last contacted the local dealership (larry h miller jeep, riverdale, utah) i was informed they do have the parts for the recall, but they "do not have the specific part" for my jeep. how long is it reasonable to wait for a recall to be dealt with? i just want my jeep fixed and i grow tired of larry miller auto group sending me mailings saying they will buy back my jeep and put me in a new car. how long must one wait for a recall to be fixed?

Takata recall my jeep commander has been nothing but trouble since i purchased it i have had all the recalls done by my local jeep dealership and still have to constantly replace wheel speed (abs) sensors and reprogram the computer. at low speeds off aproxamitly 15-20 mph i loose power like the vehicle is trying to starve itself from fuel affecting accelerate so if you pull out into a intersection it practically dies and the. when you go to brake the pedal gets hard and the vehicle keeps rolling i have to replace all 4 wheel sensor (abs) and get computer reprogrammed for it to stop costing hundreds of dollars to do over the time that i have owned the vehicle i have learned to perform such task on my own . but i am sick and tired of every summer having to buy 4 50 dollar sensors and getting charged 125 dollars to redo the computer and not to mention when the jeep decides to act up it put my child and mother to my child in serious danger never knowing when it will misfunction again and like many others i am upside down on the payments of the vehicle due to all the money invested.

I purchased the vehicle in 2010 and within a month some electrical issues were intermittently occurring. the dealer said the ignition had to be replaced and did so. these problems seemed to continue thought not often. the symptoms are as follows-first the lights start flickering and then go out. all of the dash components go out including the speedometer, fuel gage, radio etc. the ac fan also turned off. this condition did not stop the vehicle from running it just turned off the electrical components there was however a problem with stalling, a separate issue from the electrical issue., a few times while in the vehicle was stopped it would stall when stopping or starting off again. this was true in reverse and forward. i was never really worried about safety until last night when the lights went out while driving on a dark curvy country road. it was only for a few seconds but it was terrifying. this issue needs to be dealt with. in 2015 there were several recalls issued and they seemed to be related to the problems i was having. i had all of the recall notices dealt with. the software upgrades and the ignition replacement. this didn't solve the problem. in fact it

Shuts off without warning while driving ignition switch was replaced dealer can,t find any other problem i was on the highway 3 times and a couple times on a local street

Stalling problems while driving. this issue has been going on for over a year now, i was told by jeep to get p41 recall repaired and possibly fix the problem. i've had p41 done and the same problem keeps happening. everything just completely shuts down and i am unable to steer and have to restart the engine. this has happened to me numerous of times including driving on the freeway. i've contacted jeep customer service, i was told i was the only one they know of regarding this issue which is not true. another problem is dashboard lights will light up on and off while driving. all light indicators will stay on for period of time until car is restarted again.

This vehicle was recalled for the ignition switch experiencing an unintended change in ignition switch position and because the ignition switch was loose made it difficult at times to start and remain running. the vehicle was taken in for recall work and was supposedly fixed, however upon picking it up the vehicle was difficult to start and the dealership stated it was because of the new ignition system and that you had to press and turn the key just right for it to start. this condition only worsened the next week and eventually the car would not start at all. when the vehicle was towed to the dealership they started the starter and the wiring to the starter was fried and that it had nothing to do with the ignition replacement and said it would cost over $800.00 to repair!!!

This is in response to the recall for the ignition switch on my 2006 jeep commander. my vehicle has had the ignition switch replaced at the dealership but you should know that the replacement does not cure the problems that it was meant to fix. the work was completed at 9:30am and the next time i drove that day,it did the same exact shutdown as it did before (with all lights on the dash flashing).the stalling and shutdown does not occur because of hitting the key with your leg as i am only 5'4" and my leg doesn't touch the ignition. the shutdown occurs because of a short somewhere inside the ignition. it occurs randomly and sometimes can be stopped by lightly turning the key to the left. i have also found that the shutdown occurs at extreme frequency when driving in heavy rain or extremely slushy roads, which tells me that somewhere, something is getting wet and shorting the vehicle out. it is very hard to get the lights to stop flashing in this type of weather and i have had to pull over a couple times because of the danger of stalling in traffic. i am stuck with this dangerous vehicle because of my financial situation and have fought for something to be done about it by the dealer starting 20 days after i bought it but of course nothing was done until the government got involved and sadly it still hasn't cured the problem. i hope you receive more complaints and make the dealership correct the problem the right way.thank you for your time,[xxx] “information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).” *bf

I cannot "safely" drive my vehicle as the car goes into neutral on it's own? there have been many a times that i have been on the highway traveling 55 mph or more and all of a sudden, the car would slightly jerk and then loose complete power. i would step on the accelerator but no change, i would simply pull off to the side of the highway. wait a few minutes and eventually the car would start up again? the headlights and interior lights go off and on? the face plate to the radio system gets hot? and has affected the illumination of the dashboard instrumental lighting? this is not a vin thing but a jeep commander thing? such an attractive vehicle with so many many issues? safety issues. and the company has yet to fulfill the recalls? its been more than a year? dealers keep telling the consumers, the part isn't available yet? i need to be able to drive to work, this has cost me additional money to buy a reliable vehicle to get me to work. i paid over $35,000 for it, and meanwhile it sits in the garage. a lot of money for your average joe to fork out. who's going to force the manufacturer to honor the recall?

1. it leaks. whenever there is rain i have 2-3 inches of water in the front foot area on both sides. in addition to that water leaks through the lining and front pillars of the truck landing on the dashboard. what is this about? this not only results in my time to drain out the water it also leads to a gross musty smell. after a rain i can hear the water swishing back and forth in ht roof of my car. this is rediculous. further this issue has done something to the electrical system. 2. the electrical system. the driver’s side door window/lock/mirror switches no longer work. so that means that the driver’s side window hasn’t been down in forever. that makes life quite difficult. the next electrical problem is that for no apparent reasons lights come on. as i driving the interior lights just start to shine bright all of them at the same time. one night i woke up at three in the morning to find my headlights on. i tried to turn them off but couldn’t. it eventually wore the battery out. lastly electronics wise is my dashboard lights flicker crazy. 3. the door handles. behind the actual door handle is plastic. this has all broken away. i am sure it is just a matter of time before i can open the doors at all. 4. it just stops running. five times now as i am driving (streets or highway) the truck has just shut down. fortunately it starts right back up but this is extemely dangerous. this form asks for dates...all of this is ongoing.

Chrysler issued a safety recall p41 / nhtsa 14v-438 and sent notification in june of 2014. 15 months have passed and i have been calling periodically. i was informed the manufacturer is not yet making the part. this is a safety issue as the vehicle can intermittently shut down during operation. i have experienced this multiple times since purchasing the vehicle and taken it to the dealer for investigation prior to receiving the recall notice. to have such an issue, notify owners and then not be able to provide a resolution or an anticipated date is unacceptable.

I currently own a 2006 commander. i have been having problems with dash light shutoffs since 2009, just recently the vehicle has started to do exactly what the recall has stated that it will do. the dash components will go from on to off and then back on. the warning lights will all come on and then off again without warning. the fan motor for the heater is now starting to cut in and out in unison with all the indicator lights. right now it is only the lights but at some time the ignition is going to shut off leaving myself in a situation that i cannot control with no steering or brakes to safely get to the side of the road. at this point i can hit the dash to the right of the steering wheel and it comes back on but how long can i do this. this vehicle is definitely a lemon. sept 20, 2015

My family (husband & 2 small children) were driving home on the miami turnpike in crazy traffic. we hit a spot on the road where 2 roads meet and the engine complitley turned off. i freaked out because a car was behind me and it was busy traffic. once my senses kicked in i started wiggling the key and turned it and the car started back up. i did not want to drive home! my husband called jeep and they were closed. i called the recall line this morning at 8:00 am and the service was horrible. i was told it is my prerogative to keep driving because they have no fix. i let them know the vehicle is not safe to drive. the supervisor told me there was no fix they could put me on an email list for when a fix is avavilable!!!! are you kidding? then i said what if we die in an accident and sue and she said that's your families prerogative if they want to sue!!!!! i asked to speak to a different supervisor and she flat out said no i have helped you and i will not let you speak to another supervisor!!!!!!

As i was driving down the road my automobile turned off and stopped working while driving! this is very dangerous and is very ridiculous considering i received a recall notice over 1 year ago concerning this problem. i make every attempt to ensure the functions of my vehicle are running properly for the safety of my family. i have young children and they could have been seriously injured had we been involved in an accident at the time of my vehicle's failure to operate correctly, due to the manufacturers irresponsibility of taking care of this problem within a proper time frame! jeep and local dealers have been contacted multiple times to try to correct this problem, with no help from them it has yet to be repaired!

P41 recall. before recall my 2006 jeep commander turned off on its own numerous times. this resulted in engine shut down, no electrical system, etc. i have contacted chrysler several times. i get the same response, part not available. why? i am told the supplier does not have part. why not?. this is an old recall, however chrysler is repairing or buying back newer models of vehicles due to faulty design. 2006 jeep commander recall is just as serious as newer recalls. the faulty ignition switch results in entire shut down of jeep, including air bags. i was told to adjust seat so that knee does not make contact with keys in ignition. what? i suggest that vehicles with faulty ignition switch be a part of the chrysler buy back or repair immediately. also, to avoid further serious accidents and possible death resulting form faulty ignition switch.

I have only the one key on the key chain- i have moved seat back as far as it can go with me being able to still touch the pedel. and my car still cuts off when i riding down street - cuts off for like maybe 5 to 8 sec then kicks back in jolts us forward then i can hit gas-when this happens - i can not hit gas rpm do not move. i have been told numerous times have no clue when my part will be in and i feel my car is not safe to drive.

While driving at about 40mph my car shut off completely after a total electrical failure. i was able to pull to the side of the road, turned the ignition off, then on again and was able to drive it. it has happened multiple times over the last 24 months.

I received a safety recall notice from chrysler for my jeep commander stating that i may experience an unintended change in ignition switch position while driving, which could result in loss of engine power, power steering, and braking, and increases my risk of a crash. i have called chrysler group recall center 1-800-853-1403, option 6 countless times, unfortunately many times having to hang up after waiting 25 minutes to get through. i have also repeatedly called beyer/jeep/chrysler 973-644-3200 and they have been very short with me and tell me the same thing every time i call- they have no date of when the part will be in. when i drive on the highway, i am terrified of losing control of my car. i have seen on the news people that have been in accidents because of this ignition switch and heard that chrysler has a buyout program. i am interested in finding out about this program because i think that waiting over a year, and with no resolution in sight, is a bit ridiculous and i don’t want to become a statistic. please advice me as to what my next step should be.

My jeep commander has a recall, i took it in right away and was told part not available. it has been over a year and still not fixed. the dealership says no parts in yet and its been over one year. one year and i have made multiple trips and calls to the rio vista california chrysler dealership and their response is that chrysler is to send me a letter when the part is available. dealership is saying part not available. this is a safety issue and my children's safety comes first. i'm appalled at how this has been handled. i've been patient for too long.

While driving, i have a total loss of interior electrical. all systems go off although the vehicle continues running. this affects the steering as well as braking. there is nothing consistent about the problem. it has been taken to multiple dealers and they can find no issue. i've even taken in a video recording of the situation.

I was driving down the interstate and the engine completely shut off. one of the scariest things i have ever experienced. luckily traffic was minimal at the time, but in traffic, it could have been a huge disaster.

Driver side rear door handle breaks easily which could prevent someone from opening door from inside in the event of crash, fire or water incident. i have owned 2 of this same car - same make model and year, and both cars had the same identical problem.

Both front seat belts do not operate as expected. in order to use them, one must depress the red unlatch button in order to insert metal buckles into the latches. i am writing to report the seat belt operational hazard as it appears from some research that this is a common problem on this model and similar year range jeep grand cherokee models.

In september of 2014 i recently bought a 2006 jeep commander. a few weeks after purchasing the vehicle i noticed the car was shutting off when i was at stop signs, red lights, and most seriously when i was driving. i was not sure as to why my car was doing this. i tried everything from a new battery and countless appointments at my mechanic. i was not informed of any type of recall on my car, until i did my own personal research. in may of 2015 i took my car to a chrysler, dodge, jeep and ram dealership to find out when i could order the part for the p-41 recall on my car. i was informed that the part was not available in the country and they were not sure of when it would arrive. i was told the car was "safe" to drive. i was given a few tips: sit far enough away from the steering wheel so my knees were not close to the key, have the car key only on a ring by itself, always wear my seat belt, and avoid having a front passenger. it was only a matter of 4 weeks until i was experiencing the issue again. i was driving on the highway with my boyfriend and one year old daughter going about 65mph when my car completely shut off, i lost power steering, brakes, and every single light turned on. i had to resort to pulling the e-brake which did not help slow my car down. this was the most serious and dangerous incident, luckily we did not get hurt, or hurt anyone else. as a result, i took my car to another jeep dealership and was advised the same information that the part was not able to be ordered and given the same tips. i requested a rental for the safety of myself and my daughter. it took me 2 weeks to finally receive a rental. i have had a rental for almost two weeks now and was told by the dealership, by pulling the e-brake it was going to cost me $1600 to fix. i do not feel as if i am responsible for the cost of the repair, considering this was caused by the p-41 recall.

Often my whole electrical system will flash on and off and has since jan 2009. three times since march of last year vehicle has turned its self off while driving (complete steering loss), fortunately at low speed. also, in 2010 ( i have repair receipt) my transmission control module went out. i had to pay a $200 copay per request of jeep to have it replaced, after much argument. they said my particular 2006 jeep commander wasn't part of the recall, as was all other failing parts included on 2006 commander recalls, excepting ignition. still waiting on ignition fix, its been a year.

Just as i was slowing down to 30 mph to enter a parking lot the entire dashboard lit up and then all lights faded and turned off. the ac turned off and the radio turned off. the car still continued driving but the power steering was gone, causing the car to shake and jolt mid turn. the brakes weren't working as they normally would resulting in a very dangerous situation had any other car been close to me at the time. i took it to my mechanic right away and he tested everything, including the alternator and the battery. everything was functioning at 100% capacity and he couldn't find a reason for the check engine light to be on. this has happened 3 more times. i am unable to drive the vehicle in fear that it will break down or my family or another driver.

My airbags in my vehicle would shut off on there own then my lights started turning on and off as i drove.. thats the start ..one day im driving home with my kids and my car stalls out in the middle of the road tryed everything wouldnt start but windows worked except front and lights but no power. i had it towed to jeep and they insisted it was my battery.i go get my truck and as im driving all my lights come back on and all my gauges no longer worked,airbags no longer worked. they put it on the computer and p41 code came on which is my ignition switch recall from chrysler.jeep had me contact chrysler and they said that part wont be available no time soon and they were going to put me in a rental . the next day chrysler contacted jeep and then jeep said they have no idea its some electrical but they cant guarantee so i called the manager and told them its unacceptable i am without a car because chrysler wont fix the recall its a safety issue and they told me they cant do anything

My family and i were driving down the highway at 75 mph and without any warning, the engine died. when the engine died, the engine indicator light came on. power steering and braking were fine at first. i steered the car to the side of the road. before coming to a stop, the power steering stopped working. once on the side of the road, i turned the ignition off and then tried to restart the vehicle. the car re-started immediately, however, the engine light remained on. i have taken the car into the shop and the technician was unable to find any problems with the vehicle. ...updated 09/22/15 *bf about one week prior to the above event, i was driving home from the train station on a perfectly dry and clear day and when i was driving, the various traction control lights came on and the car would periodically buck while the rpm's would rev higher for a moment. after arriving home, i turned the car off and parked it in the garage. the nest day when i started it, the traction lights were off and the car appeared to drive normally. the lights that were on were the esp, bas, and the picture of the car sliding. when i took the car in for repair, the dealer couldn't find any issue with the traction system. the same traction issue has happened several more times and has yet to be repaired. updated 09/29/15*jb

I purchased my jeep commander on february 12, 2014. a week after i purchased it my check light came on so i took it back to the dealership. it was for my catalytic converter. the people in the garage stated it was just a sensor and not to worry about it i told them to fix it while it was still covered under my warranty. they wouldn't. the next day all of the dome lights and dashboard lights in my truck started flickering while driving down the road. (still does it to this day). soon after my brakes went out on me while driving down the road with my kids so i had to get the calipers and everything changed. next it was the windows they all stopped working. the end of january 2015, while driving down the road again with my children, all of the lug nuts and bolts fell off of my tire rear passenger side tire. i ended up calling the tow truck and took it back to the dealership where i bought it. $2500 and two weeks later i get my truck back, have it for a day & it starts jerking on my way to work. they fixed everything that had to do with my tires and suspension. they also inform me i need my catalytic converter changed after they told me not to worry about it it's just the sensor acting funny. (it could've been fixed when i asked them to do it while it was covered under my warranty) now my lights start flashing my wheel speed sensors aren't working and is messing with my abs system and traction. they just tell me to shut the traction off while i'm driving it should fix the problem. i end up taking it back in the shop. a month later i'm driving home from work and my serpentine belt busts and i lose control of my truck. another $500 dollar job. present day, my truck is back in the shop for a routine brakes and rotors fix and they call and say i need my outer tirods fixed and rear axle something. i've put more money into this truck than i've paid for it in the past year.

The first problem is that when going down a drive and stop at the end the car will shift from drive and the engine will shut off the second problem is the car will shift from drive to 3rd gear and stick i have had it to a transmission shop numerous times and they can't find the problem

This problem happens randomly. all dash lights come on and off, speedometer and tach goes to zero and air bag, abs and stabillty control warning comes on and stays lit till i restart engine and multiple error codes. it seems to be getting worse. called dealer and they said they do not have he parts to fix the recall as of yet.

I was driving down the hwy and my vehicle turned off. i lost power steering breaks and was not able to properly maintain control of my vehicle in order to avoid an accident. this had happened twice before this time, and i looked to see that there was a recall on my jeep for an ingition switch and the the exact discription of what would happen if my car was effected fit my situation. i then called jeep and advised them of this and they said i neeeded to have it diagnoised by a jeep dealership. i had the vehicle towed at my expensense and rented a car at my expense. the dealership confirmed my assumption and in fact the issue i was experiencing is part of the recall. jeep now tells me they don't have the parts and they have not made a decision on whether it's neccessary to provide a replacement vehicle until they have a resolve. am i supposed to be without a vehicle or potentially drive mine with 3 children, and potentially loose power again causing a loss of control? what i am supposed to do from here?

I have getting intermediate message since may saying "transmission over temp" in dash area. i have taken to the dealer on may 14, in which they took an educated guess to change my transmission fluid. i agreed to the service which did not solve the problem. i took to back the dealer again on june 1, for the same problem. this time the dealer technicians worked along with chrysler by opening a case. the corporate chrysler techs recommend to replace the solenoid, i agreed to do that. since may i have spent over $1320.00 at dulles jeep and i still have the same problem. please advise how can you help me? thank you andrew

Received a recall notice in the fall of 2014 that engine may shut off if the key is hit with leg while driving (ignition switch) safety recall-p41/nhtsa-14v-438 this has occurred numerous times, each time we have contacted the dealer, they tell us they haven't received parts to repair it. this is a big concern and a definite safety issue for us. we have contacted our attorney to see where we go from here. at this point in good conscience we couldn't even sell the vehicle! we have contacted you before-no response.

After contacting my local jeep dealership, i am told there still is "no solution" to fix the current ignition switch recall on my jeep. they have known about this for years. my "official" recall notification was september 2014, and there is no solution yet. how long does one have to wait for a viable solution? why not just install a new ignition switch instead of replacing parts? i believe i have waited long enough, and still no fix. my concern now is with the rush to fix air bad my fix will be delayed even longer. how long is a reasonable time to wait before the government demand action?

While driving home from work i noticed my truck was slowing down without me applying the brakes and once i did apply the brakes i was informed i had only one brake light working. at that time i immediately went to a part store to have the fuses check and i purchased more bulbs and found out that was not the problem. the service department informed me that this was electrical problem not even the new bulbs worked and the fuses were good as well. i purchased this vehicle in october 2014 from drive time of columbus, ga and was not informed of the recall. the carfax associated with this vehicle did not mention any defects as a matter of fact the carfax listed this vehicle as almost perfect. i have contact chrysler regarding this matter and they too let me know this problem was part of the recall but they are not able to correct the problem because they do not have the parts and it is may 2015. now i am driving a truck that is really not safe. i spoke with the dealership where i purchase the truck without any resolution. they are only concerned with the payments., can something be done? can this dealership be made to give me my money back i have spent on this truck or give me another vehicle which i afraid to trust anyone at this point. your advice would be greatly appreciated. thank you

This problem appears to be wide spread. all the intstrument panel warning lights come on and the a/c radio heater tachometer speedometer etc stop working. i investigated online and it seems this is a common problem with no clear cut fix. my jeep is included in the ignition switch recall and i'm concerned that this is a related problem. there is no eta for the ignition switch parts! i spoke with chrysler customer service yesterday.

There is actually a recall on the ignition switch for my vehicle, p41/nhtsa 14v-438. i have tried several times calling chrysler's group recall assistance center at 800-853-1403 and get automated response that part is not available. several times over the last few years, mainly while using the cruise control, my knee has hit the switch and the vehicle shuts off. most times i have been able to start back up right away. however, recently i lost all power and another vehicle was rapidly approaching me from behind and it wouldn't restart, i had to quickly pull off to the side, just narrowly avoiding getting rear ended on the interstate. now, i have a 15 year old that is starting to drive and it scares me to have my child drive this vehicle. is there anything you can do to expedite chrysler fixing this problem or possibly buy back this vehicle as it is becoming increasingly unsafe to drive. please let me know and thank you for your time.

My jeep commander started having trouble skipping. there was a recall on the control module and the fix determined by chrysler was to re-program it. i took it in to have the recall performed and the transmission check afterwards. when i arrived to pick it up, the dealership said the technician was out sick so all they could do was the recall. the car drove worse after i started home and failed to get transition between gears. i was forced to stop at the closest transmission shop. their certified technician diagnosed that the transmission was bad. so, i had them they replaced it. when they went to test drive it, apparently the new transmission also failed due to the control module. they took it to the dealership and had a new control module installed. after repairing the new transmission, i was charged $4000. whatever the recall "fix" for the control module was, it clearly was the cause for the transmission's destruction. the other recall for the ignition could not be done because chrysler has no manufactured part to fix it. i sold the commander the next day. i needed reliable transportation. the consumer stated she started having problems with the starter. updated 04/06/15

While sitting at a traffic light, most or all of the warning lights came on, wipers came on, horn started honking and the engine stalled. the horn continued to honk, the wipers to operate as if i had turned them on, which i had not. once i was able to restart the engine, the incident stopped and operated fine until the next occurrence. the second and third time this same thing happened; i was driving on an interstate, somewhere between 60 and 70mph, and all the above random things happened again, although the engine did not stall. the fourth time i was driving in suburban traffic and stopped at a light, all the same things happened and the engine did stall. i was not able to stop the horn from blaring, nor shut off the high beams this time, even after the engine was stopped and the key was withdrawn. i had to disconnect the battery cable to shut off the horn and lights. once i reconnected the battery, about an hour later, all was fine again. these 4 occurrences happened over the last ~2 months at random times in various traffic and weather conditions. it's frightening to think that i may be on an interstate in heavy traffic, and the engine stalls! *tr

I have had my 2006 jeep commander for a year and in that time period i have had a consistent problem. when i am driving the vehicle i will randomly lose power to the instrument panel, windows , windshield wipers and almost everything electrical. the engine will continue to run but if it happens at night i lose interior lights dash lights i can't see how fast i am going due to the panel not working. i have had it to the mechanic and he insists it has something to do with the ignition switch. i know a recall has been issued for a separate ignition problem but after reading online and seeing many other reports just like mine i,believe there is another issue to be handled. this problem is also making it impossible to get the vehicle inspected because when it acts up it cause the check engine light to come on and has to be reset. then before all sensors have reset it occurs again. i have spent a small fortune is gas trying to get lucky to be able to pass inspection. *tr

While driving the vehicle on a slippery road during a snowfall, my wife observed all of the indicator lights on the dashboard light up simultaneously. shortly thereafter, the engine shut off, causing a loss of power steering and consequently a loss of control of the vehicle on the slippery roadway. as a result, the vehicle slid into a highway maintenance marker along the shoulder of the road, causing minor damage to the license plate holder and bumper of the vehicle. our concern is that this incident is apparently due to a defective ignition switch, which is the subject of a current recall (14v-438) issued by the manufacturer on 9/3/14. however, the manufacturer has not provided a remedy for this defect, citing the unavailability of repair parts, and as of this morning the manufacturer has no idea as to when these repair parts will be available. in the meantime, the phenomenon of the dashboard indicators suddenly and spontaneously illuminating while driving continues to recur rather frequently, and we are afraid that a recurrence of the engine shutoff and loss of power steering and brake assist will also recur, perhaps at a time and location where a much more serious crash will result. *tr

I have 2006 jeep commander in which i am experiencing issues with the ignition switch on my vehicle. the defective ignition switch causes every light on my dashboard to illuminate and it causes my vehicle to stall, as well as flickering lights with no power to fuel gauges, mph, and rpm needles. after all the lights illuminate and go away the check engine light stays on, and the defective ignition switch drains my battery causing my vehicle to not start without a jump start by the next day. with a slight tap on the key it will move some or a bump in the road will make the ignition switch start acting up and make some of the previously described symptoms act up. occasionally there are clicks that come from the ignition switch after the vehicle has started, which signifies that the defective ignition switch is going to fail soon. i received the notification from the chrysler corporation about the recall and that my vehicle is included in it, but haven't received the second notice to this date about when the part would be available. i called in november to check and see what can be done but i was told the same thing that no parts are available. so this leaves me at the end of the road with this vehicle. i check online almost all the time for updates and still the same thing. i have been following this recall since it popped up in the news before i received notification from chrysler, because i have had this problem with my vehicle. i am scared for my life that the key will move into the wrong places disabling my car or when the ignition switch acts up it will make me loose control of my vehicle and it could be dangerous for me or any of my passengers even fatal. safety should be chryslers number one priority. at this point i hope to get rid of this car and move away from chrysler's products for good especially since fiat is running the show! *tr

Vehicle was parked at the gas station. it was working fine previously. had been at dealer getting routine maintenance done 2 weeks prior. after filling tank with gas, got in and car engine had loud bang followed by the sound of bucket of bolts. car was then towed to dealer where i was informed the car needed a complete long block. after doing extensive forum research, i am finding that there are more reports of this problem. i also understand that chrysler is aware of a design problem but will not admit or process a recall for this problem. *tr

Car lights illuminated and jeep lost power. had to rent a car to take my kids to see santa. the ignition switch needs replaced under recall p41 but no parts are available from manufacturer. car is dangerous and shouldn't be driven. chrysler has been contacted and says they are sorry but parts are not available. recall is over 3 months and no one is doing anything about the safety issue so many owners are facing. it is dangerous. nhtsa has numerous complaints on same issue but no one is making chrysler fix the problem. no one is governing the recall. according to nolo: contact the nhtsa. if you are still unable to get relief, contact the nhtsa. although you can skip the first two steps and contact nhtsa immediately, it is usually better to contact the service manager and manufacturer first -- since most problems are solved at those levels. you can contact the nhtsa by telephone at 888-327-4236 or by mail at 1200 new jersey avenue, se, west building, washington, d.c. 20590. or fill out a form at the nhtsa's interactive website at www-odi.nhtsa.dot.gov. yet, nothing is being done. there is no remedy and no one is making chrysler give another solution. exactly how long does the manufacturer have to comply? i think over 3 months is plenty of time. *tr

Can you tell me when chrysler will have parts for my vehicle that is on recall for ignition switch. i am still having problems with the vehicle cutting off while driving. i have the recall notification for some time now and waiting for them to notify me when i can have it repaired. i worry about the vehicle continuing to cut off at any time while driving and may cause an accident with the steering locking up. i enter the date above as today which is not the recall date only to complete this form. thank you [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6). *tr

In march of 2012, i was driving my 2006 jeep commander v8 on a two lane highway.at the time of the accident, i had been decreasing speed, when the truck in front of me suddenly slammed on his brakes. however, when i pressed down hard on my brakes, my brakes/anti-lock brakes completely failed, causing me to crash into the truck in front of me. while trying to brake, my car stalled and continued to propel forward, causing a lack of steering capability, inevitably causing a crash, in which my air bags did not deploy. after the police arrived, i was able to start the car and barely made it home, having to push it several blocks. my suv went into the shop for almost one month. after my suv was fixed, including exterior and radiator, the suv continued to overheat without cause and it was now considered a total loss. i was not prepared for my vehicle to be considered a total loss as the issues appeared to be minor. i endured major hardship as a result on this accident, including lack of work and occurred at an inopportune time for me to buy a new vehicle, resulting in a high interest rate and skyrocketing insurance, since i was considered at fault, despite lack of being cited due to vehicle issues. after 2 yrs, i finally was able to refinance my car; however, my insurance will remain high til feb 2015 @$314 (35 mos). i did not realize why the vehicle's braking and stalling occurred as i was not made aware of the recall until july 2014! if recalls occurred in 07-09, why was i not informed prior to this accident? this accident could have been prevented! when i called to speak to chrysler, they said that there was nothing that they could do because the car was scrapped. i do not understand why some people can be compensated for issues, but i am disregarded despite the ongoing hardship caused by a defect caused by chrysler! is there anyone out there that can help!? *js

I'm not getting anywhere with chrysler company recall service. my 2006 jeep commander has a p41 recall on it, it will do all sorts of crazy and unsafe things when driving. examples: the jeep will not start, when starting it the ignition switch clicks, the power is on for everything. jeep told me to put in drive and then back in park, then try to start it. that does not work. driving down interstate the jeep will shut off and the power steering goes out. once pulled over it needs restarted and then it runs again. it also shifts to 3rd gear when coming off the exit ramp when speeding up to get on interstate, again i have to pull over and turn it off and restart it. this is very unsafe and now i have no transportation. calling chrysler, they said that they will not help or provide a rental car. they say every time i call it's not their fault that the manufacturer of the ignition replacement part is not escalating the order and there's nothing they can do for me. they want us to drive a very unsafe vehicle instead of providing us with a rental car. they also said that they have no time frame of when the part is to be available to the dealers so this issue can be corrected and that they can't just give out rentals to everyone without knowing when the issue will be fixed. i need help, i need a way to work and i need a safe vehicle. *js

In june of 2011 i was driving down the fwy at 70mph when the engine turned off steering wheel locked and i has to coast off the fwy luckily it was night and little traffic (california is known for heavy fwy traffic. it started again early 2012 this time the transmission would not shift at appropriate times and rev the engine while maintaining speed in any gear and would do that for 5-7 days in a row and then run normally (this still occurs at least once a month) dealership and other mechanics could not find an issue and basically stated the engine was running hot and the fan had not kicked in no the case since this was winter time when it began. as recently as april of 2014 it began turning off completely when slowly coming to a stop anywhere on the fwy at a signal going uphill, downhill, parking in a parking space and this happens every day all day long - it never does not do it. at this time i have 117000 and it is very unsettling as i have a 7 year old son, a full time job and live in busy california - the fact that jeep/chrysler is unable to determine the repair needed is putting my family at risk day after day - i can barely afford and make ends meet and this has caused me much stress. i cannot afford to purchase another vehicle as i have tried for the past year. please help me. *tr

I was slowly pulling through a stop light (stop and go traffic up to it). jeep suddenly lost power of all kinds - stalled engine, no emergency flashers, no radio, nothing. tried to turn key & restart it a # of times but it was dead. ambulance drove by, stopped & pushed me out of the road. as they were pushing me, electrical came back on. so i tried to turn key again and car started. **i am pretty confident that my knee did not touch the key- i am too short for that and also the car would not restart once stalled- i turned key many times to tr and get out of the road and car remained dead/powerless. all electrical was off. once car came back on, radio stations no longer programmed, etc. much like the battery had died. ** plz note, mileage is estimated- i need to go look inside car. *tr

Jeep started making a ticking noise randomly one day. i made an appointment with the local dealership and they explained the the exhaust manifold bolts were broken on both sides. very strange considering that my jeep have never been off-road. after doing some research it has become very obvious that this is an issue with all of the chrysler vehicles with the 4.7l v8. the company doesn't try to help with the cost and actually charges an astronomical amount to repair something that i consider bad engineering on their part. the broken bolts cause an exhaust leak that can now be detected within the car and i think is potentially dangerous for the passengers. with the bolts broken it also allows the exhaust manifold to warp cause addition damage that now needs to be repaired/replaced. *tr

While driving - usually at night and at all speeds my headlights will flicker like a strobe light and then go off completely, including the interior lights as well indicating my speed, etc.. sometimes i can use my high beams to at least be able to see, however, even sometimes this does not work. very, very dangerous to not be able to see or be seen at night in random places on the freeway, in the city, etc....please someone help - dealer states that they have no clue as to what the problem might be!! another problem, i have been dealing with, is the air conditioner in the vehicle will stop and not blow any air. i took it to the dealership and they stated that they did not have the part to fix my car. on top of that they gave me a piece of my car that apparently fell off, while they were inspecting it??!!?? they told me it was not their fault and that it is a faulty piece called the housing which is part of the inlet housing and that it would cost $1,156.38 to fix. unbelievable! *tr

While traveling on an expressway in central michigan, i was using the cruise control to maintain a speed of 75 mph. with no warning at all, the mechanical components of the vehicle shut down, leaving my jeep "dead in the highway". i was able to steer and brake, but the vehicle would not respond to acceleration by pressing the gas pedal. i pulled off to the shoulder, luckily without incident. turned the key to the "off" position and waited about 10 seconds. i turned the key to the "on" position and it started back up. i cautiously drove at a considerably slower speed until i was able to get to a rest stop. when i got to my destination i found a local auto parts store and had them do a diagnostic check. it showed a maf sensor gone bad. mass air flow sensor was replaced. hoping that was the issue, after several days, my family and i headed back home on the other side of the state. while driving about 60 mph with cruise control, there were no issues. i figured the problem was fixed. unfortunately, i was wrong. as i reached the highway where the speed limit is 70 mph, i accelerated to 70 mph with the cruise control. as soon as i broke the 70 mph point, the car mechanically stalled again as i was trying to merge onto the busy highway. again, luckily, i made it safely to the shoulder and restarted. i was able to exceed 70 mph on the way home without using the cruise control. concerned for my pregnant wife, toddler son, and my own safety, as this happened on a busy highway at a high rate of speed; with no warning lights or sounds. *tr

Basically the door handle mechanisms disintegrated. the drivers side front and rear door plastic that surrounds the door handles broke into several small pieces and fell inside the door. i feel this is a danger because eventually the cable that opens the doors will break and i will not be able to open the doors. i have checked into having them repaired but it was very expensive due to the fact that the plastic around the handles is 1 piece with the rest of the plastic of the inside of the door. also, although this is not a danger - the display screen for all the of electronics of the car, went black several years ago. i am unable to access a lot of the information about the car. we paid over $43,000 for the car - these things should not happen. the door handle really scares me. i have signed petitions to have this recalled as well as contacted the manufacturer. it seems to be a common problem with this car. thank you *tr

Less then two weeks after the purchase of the 2006 commander (purchased on 8/10), the dash started to flicker off and on at random times - slow and fast. as i would drive it would get worse and i would lose rpm, mph, lights at night, wipers during storms, radio, air, heat, defrost, all dash warnings flashing on and off, etc. the dash would go black and then the car would stall. the first time this happened i was on a hwy going 65 and had to drift to the side without killing myself or someone else. i started the car back up with no problem. two hours later i was at a stop sign and it did the same thing. 8/27/14 took it to the dealer and they said they fixed it. the third time it surged, i was in a storm crossing over a two lane bridge - dash flashing, lights/defrost/radio/wipers on and off, and then nothing but darkness and car stalled - i had nowhere to go. i lost all control with the car and only going 35mph. i was able to coast to high point of the bridge with passing cars beeping and flashing their lights at me. i started the car and had the repeat experience three more times before getting home using the emergency break - brakes lock when car stalls. 9/20/14 i took it to the dealer and they said they fixed it. i was driving 35 on a highway and it started again and i decided to tape the activity with my phone - dangerous while driving but had to show someone what was going on - dealer told me they could get me in to look at it in 4 days. 10/13/14 dealer puts me in a junk car and says they are going to fix it and wants me to be safe. thinks it is a recall. love the car but don't want to die in it because of an electrical surge. my concern is that these complaints have been coming in since 2007 and it is just now getting attention. this is a huge safety issue. i wish i would have done my research before buying the car, shame on me. *tr

My vehicle is a 2006 jeep commander that i have had numerous issues with even though it only has about 78,000 miles. i was driving down a residential street when it stalled and after i cut off the engine to restart it the vehicle would not turn over. i had it towed to a repair shop and was told it was the control relay module that was not communicating effectively. i have had the transmission replaced, all the recalls done, and many other things. this is so unsafe and ridiculous. its nearly $1,000 to have this part replaced, but because it is such a common issue it is on back order. chrysler should take responsibility for the defective items they produce and sell to customers who bear the brunt of having a barely drivable, money pit. *tr

Upon starting the vehicle heard to be what sounded like a loud exhaust leak under the passenger side of the engine. while driving the noise seemed to lessen / go away. upon doing research many reports that if you hear an "exhaust leak" upon start up then fade away, it could be a possibility that the exhaust manifold bolts have broken. i took it upon myself to look under the hood on the passenger side while the vehicle was cold, and low and behold the bolt that goes through the heat shield and manifold and into the engine block was cracked in two pieces separating the manifold from the block. i call my mechanic, he said bring it down right away, he looked at it and saw that there was 2 bolts broken on the passenger side. again many complaints from customers online about the same problem, and the only way to fix this issue is to lift the engine out of the vehicle to drill out the broken bolts that are stuck in the block. now. my mechanic tries everything all sorts of angle tools, other tools and cant remove the bolts, so the only thing left to do is lift the engine. i have the engine lifted and find that there were more bolts broken on the driver side as well. i go to the dealer and buy all new "upgraded bolts" ( as the dealer specified) for this along with gaskets, rear main seal, fan clutch, oil pan gasket etc. i explain to the dealer the problem and they admit to the problem but there's no recall on the 4.7l only on the hemi for the broken manifold bolts. i ask what was the problem. the dealer replied " the manufacturer installed the wrong grade bolts from the manifold to the block." now i'm out almost $3500 for parts and labor for a known problem that hasn't been recalled, this is something chrysler/jeep should be on top of considering this is an ongoing issue. this is my second jeep, and i'm not sure i'd purchase another one.

At any speed, anytime, cold or hot, the vehicle will produce a message on the instrument cluster information center stating " transmission over temp ". the vehicle was brought to the mechanic two times already and can't find anything wrong. this message will display on a cool morning upon start up or after the vehicle has been running for some time. the message will not stay on longer than a few minutes, then will turn off. a ton of research has been done and no one has the answer yet. the only thing i came across was to replace the pcm/ecm, someone stated there was a glitch with the computer. many people have this reoccurring problem and it can't be fixed yet.

The plastic panel of the interior door (driver's side) cracked by the door handle. one day i pulled the interior door handle, the crack in the panel grew and pieces crumbled and fell into the door. then the handle fell into the door. now the only way to open the door is to lower the window and open it from outside. this is a major safety issue, and i apparently am not the only one. see forum citing: http://www.jeepforum.com/forum/f67/wk-xk-door-handle-recall-1404372/. *tr

Today not 10 minutes after filing my complaint i got in my car and while driving the car stalled after my knee barely touched the key fob. i was paying close attention since i had just read about the investigation.

Our jeep doesn't stay in gear, to back up out of driveway must go from reverse to neutral several times to engage. also will slip from drive to neutral while driving. there have been many, many, times that our jeep doesn't know it is in park or neutral and will not start until you mess for along time with shifter. contact was made with dealers in area and they state our vin. isn't part of recall. when driving our jeep has put itself into neutral but shifter is in drive position... please help us..

The vehicle check engine light comes on and the car stalls out no matter how fast you are going. everything dies, including power steering. i have to coast over to the side of the road and turn the car off and then restart it and it runs fine for awhile. there is no rhyme or reason to it. i have been driving on the highway going 80 mph and the check engine light comes on and it just shuts off. i have also been on side roads going 35-40 mph and it happens. it always restarts and then it happens again. i had all the spark plugs replaced in 2012 and it worked fine for awhile, probably about 5,000 miles, then it happened again out of the blue in 2014. i don't drive the car very often because it is too dangerous. i've almost caused several accidents on the highway from a sudden slow down from the engine dying and decelerating rapidly. i've written a complaint in 2012, never heard anything and now i am writing again.

Hello, my 2006 jeep commander started stalling out over a year ago and has stalled on me on and off various times at different speeds but usually at a higher rate of speed, which has been very scary. i have chosen not to drive the vehicle anymore and now it is sitting in my driveway and i am driving a 1991 honda because i cannot afford to buy a new car at this time. i just paid this jeep off and now i cannot drive the vehicle. the dealer fixed the one recall on the vehicle called the front control module and it ran fine for a couple of weeks and now once again the car stalled out while i was headed to a camping trip with my kids a couple months ago going 50 mph and almost caused an accident. i was almost hit by a semi and several cars were honking and trying to avoid my jeep. i lose all power steering and there are no notifications that the car will stall so it is very scary and dangerous for me and my children. i am so upset that i cannot drive the car and feel safe. i have contacted jeep and they have a recall for 2006 jeep commanders that covers up to january 2006 and my vehicle was made in march so they told me there is nothing they can do. the recall was for the pcm which my car has the same code on the diagnosis but now they are telling me to take it to the dealer and i have to pay for this. i really hope that this situation can be resolved by jeep stepping up and taking care of this issue for the safety of people. *tr

My vehicle paint is "spidering" and cracking on the hood. you wouldn't think this could happen since it sat in a garage for almost a year while i was deployed, i wax it religiously and it is used very little. when talking to the jeep dealer, they make it sound like it is acceptable wear and tear. i think there is a flaw in the paint used for that specific year and possibly manufacturing location. *tr

Driving my jeep commander from topeka,ks to manhattan,ks drove on the high way when accelerated the vehicle began to jerk and or began a rocking motion. the vehicle jerked or rocked every so often not consistent but very randomly did not notice a pattern. the vehicle did not drive well and felt very unsafe to drive on the high way. *tr

For no reason the jeep would just die, on the intrastate, in town, anywhere, just shut off, then after a hour or so it would start again. after being in the shop many weeks for this, the two computers were found to be the problem. changed the computers, at the fee of almost $ 2000 and no more problems, which the money is nothing knowing my teenage daughter wont stall on the intrastate and be killed. chrylser corp can care less !!!! *tr

Water leaks into vehicle from door and sunroof. *tr

The lights on my 2006 jeep commander ac/heat panel will not light up since 2011. also my stereo lights, head lights and speedometer lights and other instrument light flicker randomly. my other problem that started in april of 2014 is when i am driving at 55/60 mph a warning message will pop up that reads transmission over temperature. it sometimes goes out on its own while i am still driving and sometimes it will take me to turn the truck off and restart the engine then it will go off. *tr

Engine shut off while driving on a winding road. loss of steering and brakes became a potentially catastrophic problem. this is the second occurrence of this type in the past month. our mechanic is scratching his head. *tr

Everytime i drive my jeep it stalls and the wheel locks up (basically turns into manual steering) and my brakes lock up ( no brakes at all) and i had just bought this jeep a wk go from mcgee chevrolet in raynham ma. the first night i drove it home it stalled pulling in to the driveway. i called the dealership the next morning to tell them and they wouldn't take the jeep til the following wk to look at it they came up with every excuse in the world. when i brought the jeep in today they had me sign a deductible of 100 dollars but yet when i first test drove the jeep it i told them to fix it but all they did was cleared the codes (flashed the computer) now i have a rejection sticker on the vehicle and no car. *tr

This problem has been occurring since 2010. it first happened to my wife as she drove on i-75 the car just turned off on her and almost got rear ended by a car that was behind her. it has occurred at least 7 times since and recently much more than before where the same thing happens the car turns off and you lose complete control of everything,brakes ,steering etc the car just floats for about two blocks and you are helpless until it stops. my wife contacted chrysler this last time to complain about the issue and was told that our car was under investigation ,that recalls were being done in september but that we would have to pay for the repairs and then get reimbursed .i personally don't think the consumer should pay for anything much less something that has already been discovered to be a manufacturing flaw. *tr

Was driving down road and lost power, car stalled. this has happened a total of 3 times with yesterday being the 3rd event and i was traveling about 55 mph with the last incident. *tr

My jeep had an n23 recall performed at park jeep in burnsville, mn. after the recall was performed, the four wheel drive system low range became inoperable. a message appears on the dash: 'service four wheel drive'. i notified the dealer about his issue. they performed some reprogramming that they said would fix the issue. this reprogramming did not work, as the issue has returned, and my four wheel drive system is not operating as expected. i notified jeep customer service, and they have no solution for this problem. the dealer has no solution for this problem. about 500,000 grand cherokees and commanders that have this four wheel drive system are affected. no one can guarantee that it will not affect normal operation of the vehicle. and no one knows what the system can do in traffic on it's own without warning to the driver of the vehicle. the n23 recall performed by my jeep dealer has created this problem, and it needs to be addressed by the manufacturer now. chrysler/jeep needs to provide a proper repair so that the owners of these vehicles can count on their jeeps to perform as they were represented to perform when purchased, and with the knowledge that the vehicle will perform in a safe manner with no unexpected limitations or actions as they are driven on the public roads. search on the internet will show scores of links to this n23 recall created problem, and chrysler/jeep's lack of action on this issue. this needs action now. *tr

Car turned itself off,ignition switch problem, maybe software.has stalled on many occasions. has had software checked by dealer and there is no other fix, they say. is this part of the ignition switch recall problem with ignition switch? thank you! *tr

Electrical issue that is causing all dashboard lights to flicker on and off, heat/air goes on and off, audio center goes on and off all electrical functions go no and off. dealership blamed my remote starter(which they. *tr installed) but turned out it wasn't and they have no idea what it is. say they can't determine what it is unless it is happening when i bring it in. the interior door opening casing crumbles. already had drivers door fixed because i couldn't open door from inside and was told all doors would eventually have to be done. doors freeze due to poor drainage. water collects inside door frame and running board, freezing all doors. if not for the remote starter, wouldn't be able to get in the car at all. *tr

I purchased this vehicle 2/15/14 three weeks later while driving on highway the gauges just came on and kept flashing it continued for the duration of my drive. once i got to work and put it in park and turn it off and restarted it nothing happened. so 8.5 to 9 hrs later back on the highway it does it again this time just flashed 3 times. it was taking to a shop per finance company to which the mechanic kept for almost 2 weeks. the mechanic stated he could not find anything wrong with it. he needed to see it happen. so i took it back home the first week nothing happened. second week nothing that third week it happened again this time while on highway on the way to work my speed dropped from 60 to 5 in less than a second. i pulled over and sat for 2 to 3 minutes an proceeded on with my cell phone ready to snap a picture if it happened again and low and be hold it does it again and this time it was continues until i turned off the vehicle once again it was taken to the shop with the proof he needed and again he stated he could not find anything wrong so he took it to jeep chrysler and had them reset everything and gave it back to me. for the next month nothing happened. but the following month once again the problem starts again. but this time it completely knocked out my radio. the finance company want help and i don't know what to do. today is the 25th of july but two or three days ago there was a recall on 2006-2007 jeep commanders for faulty ignition switches. i really do not feel safe for me or my kids in this vehicle but noone seems to care. not sure what to do about this problem but i truly hope you do. *tr

Braking to approach a red light at an intersection the brakes felt mushy followed by complete loss of power. i was stopped in the inside lane of a 4-lane hwy at an intersection without power!. after a moment of panic....thank heavens no oncoming traffic behind me....i put the car into park and restarted the engine. i traveled two blocks to where i could safely exit the hwy and park. after a few minutes while i calmed down i proceeded to drive the vehicle to my home. since that time i have tried to get the vehicle in for a check but cannot get an appointment until august. it has been a few days and i have no choice but to use the vehicle. i have noted some missing and hesitating from time to time but not complete failure. however, i would not take this vehicle on an open hwy as it is performing right now. *tr

The interior door opening casing crumbles into pieces. jeep know about the faulty design and actually redesigned this component in 2008. to replace the door handle, the entire door panel must be replaced - at approximately $800 per door just for parts. this item should have been recalled because it creates a safety issue for people trying to exit the vehicle in an emergency. *tr

Below is what i sent to jeep. i have their respondents in my email. i can proved as requested. this correspondence is to document my concern with the safety of my jeep commander; year 2006, make ltd, vin [xxx]. there is an electrical issue that is causing various components of the vehicle to malfunction. examples of these episodes are the following: the a/c cutting in and out, the dashboard flickering on and off, the speedometer flickering radically up and down, the audio center turning on and off, headlights to flicker, the turning signals to not correctly operate.Ã? i recently replaced the audio unit because the malfunction caused the unit to blow. the problem has been occurring since 2012; initially the occurrences were rare but have been increasing in consistence and escalating since then.i tried addressing the issue on 6.12.2012 at chapman scottsdale autoplex.the problem continued. i tried readdressing 05.01.2014 at chapman scottsdale autoplex. i have incurred direct cost of approximately $275 and have supporting documentation to support. chapman scottsdale autoplex is stating that i need to replace a dimmer switch for a cost of $229.00. i am not confident that is will resolve the issue and neither is the dealership. i originally purchased the vehicle at royal gate dodge chrysler jeep, inc. on 04.24.2009. i believe this issue is a matter that the manufacture should address and resolve. these occurrences are not routine maintenance items. i would prefer to address this matter without filing a formal correspondence to national highway traffic safety administration. i will be providing a copy of this correspondence to my attorney [xxx] & for record purposes. please respond to this correspondence within seven business of receipt. i look forward to resolving this matter. information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6). *tr

I took my car to the recall to get the reflash in may of last year. when the winter came i tried using my 4 wheel drive and the "service 4 wheel drive" error. fix this! *tr

As i was coning to a stop my car died this happened several times all while coming to a stop. i could hear a clicking noise and then the engine would just turn off. i would have to put it in park and restart the engine. *tr its very scary to think my car turns off for no apparent reason. they did a diagnostic but found nothing now my navigation display in the radio comes and goes to a blank screen. i assume it is all connected since the electrical system is all related. what next?

While driving on sunday july 6, 2014, my vehicle suddenly shut off and lost power steering. we were able to pull off and restart the vehicle. this happened a couple of times and then seemed to run normal. *tr

I had the n23 update done and now i do not have 4 wheel drive - thanks chrysler another screw up and you won't fix it. *tr

I was driving down a neighborhood street and re-adjusted my seating position. while driving, my knee slightly bumped the key and turned off my car while it was in drive. i then lost power steering and power brakes. luckily i was moving slowly and could pull over and stop the car. i then tested it again in a parking lot and i determined that my jeep shuts off every time i move the key with my knee, even while driving. potentially very dangerous. *tr

At startup vehicle info center shows service 4wd system. vehicle won't shift into 4wd low range if attempted service 4wd message come on and stays on until vehicle is shut off. recall n23 was performed and now codes had set stopping transfer case operation. codes c1405 and c140f cleared by dealer and claim it is fixed. dealer charged for this service. *js

All the light on my dash board have been flickering on and off for the past two months. it does not seem to affect my engine however it will completely take all gauges to zero while i am driving. i drove it last night and when it happened it killed my all my lights. i can hear a clicking sound when the flickering happens. it doesn't click continuously but enough to make me very uneasy. *tr

After n23 recall was updated 4l will not work. service 4wd system message appears. *js
