2007 JEEP COMMANDER Complaints

THE TIRE-PRESSURE-MONITOR SYSTEM HAS BEEN DEFECTIVE SINCE THE PURCHASE OF MY JEEP. MY JEEP SERVICE-CENTER HAS ATTEMPTED MANY TIMES TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM WITH NO SUCCESS. SINCE THE JEEP TPM SYSTEM IS REPORTING BOGUS INFORMATION, THE TPM ERROR MESSAGES ARE USELESS. THEREFORE THE ENTIRE TPM SYSTEM IS USELESS AND NOT OPERATING AS REQUIRED BY THE NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC SAFETY ADMINISTRATION (NHTSA), DOT., 49 CFR PARTS 571 AND 585, [DOCKET NO. NHTSA 2005-20586], RIN 2127-AJ23

WHILE HIGHWAY DRIVING, THE VEHICLE SHUT OFF AT 70MPH IN MIDDLE LANE. THERE WERE NO WARNING LIGHTS OR CHIMES THAT PRECEDED THE EVENT. AFTER PULLING OVER AND PUTTING THE VEHICLE IN PARK, THE JEEP STARTED NORMALLY. THE KEY RING ONLY HAD THE JEEP KEY AND THE VALET KEY, AND I FAR AWAY FROM THE DASHBOARD.

MY VEHICLE WOULD NO LONGER ACCELERATE IN TRAFFIC CAUSING ME TO ALMOST GET HIT IN THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE. I COULD DO NOTHING BUT COAST AND BRAKE. ALL GEARS BECAME HIGHLIGHTED WHICH WERE NOT PREVIOUSLY. I AM WORRIED IF THIS CONTINUES TO HAPPEN I WILL BE IN AN ACCIDENT. THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON ENCOUNTER AMONG JEEP OWNERS BUT THERE IS NO RECALL.

WHILE ATTEMPTING TO START THE JEEP, THE ENGINE KEEPS TURNING OVER WHILE THE MOTOR WILL NOT START. DOES IT RANDOMLY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 JEEP COMMANDER 4X4. THE CONTACT EXPERIENCED A NO START CONDITION WHEN ATTEMPTING TO START THE VEHICLE. THE FAILURE OCCURRED WITHOUT ANY WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE IGNITION SWITCH HAD TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE FAILURE RECURRED SEVERAL OTHER TIMES AFTER THE REPAIR. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT DEALER THE SECOND TIME WHERE THE BATTERY WIRES AND CABLES WERE CONNECTED TOGETHER. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 91,684. SJ

DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD ON RT3 HEADING WEST TOWARDS WEST CHESTER PA PASSING BY PROVIDENCE ROAD I WAS GOING ABOUT 55MPH WHEN MY JEEP SHUT OFF AND I LOST POWER TO THE ENGINE (THIS WAS VERY SCARY). I WAS ABLE TO PULL OFF THE ROAD AND EVENTUALLY GOT MY JEEP STARTED AGAIN. ABOUT 6 MONTHS LATER I WAS STOPPED AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT AND AGAIN MY JEEP SHUT OFF. I WAS ABLE TO RESTART IT AGAIN A FEW SECONDS LATER. I BELIEVE THIS IS AN IGNITION SWITCH PROBLEM. *TR

THE U-JOINTS ARE WORN AND THERE IS NO REPLACEMENT JOINTS. IT IS A DEALER ITEM AND NEED TO GET A NEW DRIVE SHAFT FOR THE FRONT AND REAR ON A 4X4 JEEP COMMANDER.YOU NOTICE THE VIBRATION ON THE STEERING WHEEL IN DIFFERENT SPEEDS DUE TO THE BAD U-JOINTS.
