2008 JEEP COMMANDER, ENGINE WOULD REPEATEDLY SHUT DOWN WHILE DRIVING. IT WOULD HAPPENED AT ALL SPEEDS, FROM PULLING OUT TO DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY. I RECEIVED THE SAFETY RECALL P57/NHTSA 14V-567 OVER SIX MONTHS AGO WHICH STATED "CHRYSLER IS MAKING EVERY EFFORT TO PROVIDE THE PART AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE". THIS IS AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS PROBLEM THAT COULD END UP KILLING SOMEBODY IF IT HASN'T ALREADY. IT IS UNACCEPTABLE THAT CHRYSLER CAN OPERATE IN THIS MANNER AND TAKE THIS LONG TO FIX THE PROBLEM. IT APPEARS THEY COULD CARE LESS ABOUT THE CUSTOMERS SAFETY AND THAT THEY ARE NOT TAKING THE RECALL SERIOUSLY.

JEEP COMMANDER 2008 HEMI 5.7 IGNITION FAULTY AND WILL NOT START PART OF THE TIME AND VEHICLE WILL SHUT DOWN WITHOUT WARNING. MY JEEP HAS THE ABILITY TO CHOOSE WHEN IT WANTS TO START- TURN THE KEY SOLENOID CLICKS BUT WILL NOT START, PLACE SHIFTER IN NEUTRAL STARTS RIGHT UP, OTHER TIMES WHILE IN NEUTRAL ROLL IT BACK AND THE VEHICLE STARTS. AH-HAAA MOMENT THAT EVERY MECHANIC GOES TO IS THAT ITS THE STARTER WHICH I HAVE REPLACED- WRONG 2 TIMES! SAME PROBLEM WITH SECOND NEW STARTER, AH-HAA ITS THE BATTERY- NOPE! ANOTHER $150 DOWN THE DRAIN, RELAYS- NOPE! STILL INTERMITTENT AT BEST, JEEP STARTS WHEN IT WANTS!!! I HAVE TRIED EVERY MIX AND MATCH OF WAYS TO START THE VEHICLE AND IT WILL LITERALLY START WHEN YOUR ON YOUR LAST NERVE OR AFTER YOU WALK HOME, CALL A TOW TRUCK AND GO BACK TO YOUR JEEP - WHA-LAA IT STARTS! YOU ALSO TAKE IT TO THE DEALER WHO CHECKS IT ON THE COMPUTER AND STATES "WE CANT FIND ANYTHING, CANT FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT (AND EVEN THOUGH JEEP HAS A RECALL AND YOUR CAR IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE) THAT WE HAVE TO GIVE YOU YOUR KEYS BACK AND GET YOU ON YOUR WAY". REAL SAFE JEEP- LOOSING FANS FAST. OK VENTING OVER- STILL A FAN OF JEEP BUT THIS IS AN OBVIOUS PROBLEM THAT ACCORDING TO NUMEROUS INTERNET SITES THAT A TON OF COMMANDER OWNERS ARE HAVING. I WISH JEEP WOULD GIVE AN UPDATE AS MY COMMANDER IS SITTING AT A DEALERSHIP IN KETTERING OHIO WITH TECHNICIANS THAT ARE STATING "ITS THE STARTER". MY RESPONSE WAS THAT I WANT THE IGNITION RECALL FIXED, FUNNY THING WAS THAT THEY STATED THAT CHRYSLER DID HAVE ALTERNATE PARTS THAT WOULD WORK (COSTING $450 TO INSTALL) BUT NOT COVERED UNDER THE WARRANTY REPAIR. I STATED MY CASE AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE DEALERSHIP WAS GOING TO CONTACT C.J.D. AND REQUEST A OVERRIDE ON THE COST TO GET MY JEEP STARTING AGAIN.
