MY JEEP SEEMS TO MATCH UP TO A VERY COMMON PROBLEM RELATED TO A TOTAL INTERGRATED POWER MODULE. THE PROBLEM IS SO INTERMITTENT THAT BASICALLY EVERYTHING MECHANICAL AND ELECTRICAL HAS BEEN REPLACED. THE TIPM IS MY NEXT REPLACEMENT. I HAVE FREAKY ISSUES WITH MY VERY CLEAN JEEP COMMANDER 2008 LIMITED 5.7L HEMI. ITS ABSOLUTELY CRAZY WHAT HAS BEEN REPLACED. I WOULD NEVER RECOMMEND A JEEP PRODUCT AS THIS ISSUE SEEMS TO BE KNOWN BUT DUE TO COST JEEP BASICALLY DENIES THE ISSUE. MY VEHICLE WOULD BE THE POSTER VEHICLE FOR A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT AND JEEP NEEDS TO FIX THIS AS THIS IS NOT RIGHT. WAY TOO MUCH MONEY IS BEING PAID OUT FOR REPAIRS THAT DO NOT WORK.

I HAD MY VEHICLE TOWED TO SOUTHFIELD CHRYSLER ON 3/1/2015., THE NEXT DAY I SPOKE WITH A SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE ASKED NATURE OF PROBLEM THE VEHICLE NEVER GOT LOOKED AT UNTIL 3-4 DAYS LATER AND WAS TOLD THAT THE WIN MODULE " WAS NOT RESPONDING" THAT VEHICLE WOULD START THEN SHUT OFF INTERMITTENTLY. HE STATED THAT THE PROBLEM WAS "NOT" PART OF THE RECALL, AND THE MODULE ITSELF WAS BAD AND THAT THE "SWITCH ITSELF IS THE PART BEING RECALLED." WHEN I QUESTIONED HIM ON THIS AFTER I FOUND ONLINE THAT A WOMAN IN CHICAGO HAD EXPERIENCED THE SAME ISSUE. I WAS INSTRUCTED I COULD CONTACT CHRYSLER ASSISTANCE LINE TO SEE IF THE ITEM WAS COVERED UNDER THE RECALL AND HE WOULD ALSO CHECK WITH THE SERVICE MANAGER BUT THAT NEVER HAPPENED WHEN I SPOKE WITH THE SERVICE MANAGER HE HAD NO KNOWLEDGE OF WHO I WAS...AFTER 9 DAYS OF THE VEHICLE BEING IN THERE POSSESSION IT WAS REPAIRED AND WAS CHARGED A TOTAL OF $608.99 NOT INCLUDING THE COST OF RENTAL FOR THE 9 DAYS. DEALER DID NOT OFFER ANY TYPE OF REIMBURSEMENT OR RESPONSIBILITY.

WHILE RELOCATING AND DRIVING ON A MAJOR INTERSTATE HIGHWAY, THE PRE-OWNED VEHICLE WITH 87,684 AT TIME OF PURCHASE, THE 4 WHEEL DRIVE SYSTEM CAME ON BY ITSELF AND STAYED IN HIGH AND IS STILL IN HIGH AND IF THE VEHICLE IS DRIVEN WILL NEED TO BE DISCONNECTED. THE POWER STEERING LOCKED, SHREDDED BELTS. THEN, THE ENGINE RAN HOT FOR NO MORE THAN A MILE ON AN INTERSTATE HIGHWAY WITH NO WARNING. DUE TO THE POWER STEERING LOCKING UP, COMBUSTION CAUSED HEAD GASKET PROBLEMS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 JEEP COMMANDER. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 30 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE SPARK PLUGS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V567000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM); HOWEVER, THE PART NEEDED TO DO THE REPAIR WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 60,000.

I RECEIVED A RECALL ON MY 08 COMMANDER LAST OCTOBER AND HAVE WAITED FOR AN UPDATE. THE KEY STICKS IN THE IGNITION, WILL NOT LET LOOSE AND STAYS RUNNING. I HAD IT DIAGNOSED MAY 2015 PER REQUEST OF THE JEEP CUSTOMER CARE AND HAVE SPOKEN WITH JEEP CARE AND CUSTOMER SERVICE MULTIPLE TIMES SINCE THEN. AFTER THE DIAGNOSTIC IN STERLING CO THEY TALKED TO JEEP AND IT WAS DECIDED IT IS THE RECALL HOWEVER THERE IS NO SOLUTION. I EXPLAINED THE ISSUE IS GETTING WORSE AND WE HAVE 3 KIDS WE TRANSPORT THIS IS NOT A SAFE VEHICLE. I WAS TOLD THERE WAS A PRIORITY EMAIL SENT AND I WOULD GET A LOANER OR A SOLUTION SINCE THE VEHICLE IS UNSAFE. SINCE THEN I HAVE BEEN HUNG UP ON OVER 4 TIMES FROM JEEPS CUSTOMER CARE AND HAVE BEEN TOLD MY "AGENT" WOULD LIKE ANOTHER DIAGNOSTIC AT NO COST TO ME. I HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANY CALLS BACK FROM MY DESIGNATED AGENT WITH JEEP AND CONTINUE TO BE TOLD BY CUSTOMER CARE THAT THEY ARE SORRY BUT THERE IS NO PARTS AVAILABLE TO FIX THE IGNITION SWITCH. I CALLED 877-426-5337 FOR THE CUSTOMER SERVICE AS WELL AS OTHER NUMBERS GIVEN TO ME. THE JEEP WAS DIAGNOSED AT WOLF AUTO 970-522-0864. ALL I HAVE ASKED FOR IS A WAY TO MAKE THE VEHICLE SAFE AND FOR US TO BE ABLE TO DRIVE IT. IT HAS COME TO A POINT WHERE WE TRY NOT TO TAKE IT ANYWHERE BECAUSE WE DON'T KNOW IF THE KEY WILL COME OUT OR NOT. JEEP CUSTOMER SERVICE HAS BEEN VERY POOR WITH THEIR ASSISTANCE AND KEEP PUTTING ME ON THE BACK BURNER.
