2006 JEEP COMMANDER Complaints

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.

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.

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.

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

SEVERAL TIMES OVER A COUPLE OF MONTHS THIS VEHICLE HAS STALLED WHILE DRIVING AND HAS ALMOST CAUSED SEVERAL ACCIDENTS. AUTO SHOPS CANNOT IDENTIFY THE PROBLEM.

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.

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.

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!

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!!!
