2007 JEEP COMMANDER Complaints

I'VE BEEN HAVING A PROBLEM WITH MY 07 JEEP COMMANDER ILL BE DRIVING ON ROAD AND FOR NO REASON IT WILL JUST TURN OFF THIS IM MY PRIMARY CAR AND I HAVE A NEW BORN BABY I WOULD HATE TO GET A PHONE CALL THAT THEY HAVE BEEN IN A ACCIDENT THERE HAS TO BE A RECALL ON THIS RIGHT AWAY THIS IS THE 3RD TIME IT HAS HAPPEN PLEASE HELP. *TR

PURCHASED USED IN SPRING 2008 WITH APPROX. 30K MILES, IN SPRING OF 2010 HAD SEVERAL WEEKS OF ISSUES RANGING FROM VEHICLE CUTTING OFF RANDOMLY, VEHICLE JUMPING WHILE AT STOP LIGHTS, HESITATING TO GO INTO 2ND AND 3RD GEAR AND THEN THE 'SERVICE PARK ASSIST' LIGHT WOULD ILLUMINATE ALONG WITH THE GEAR INDICATOR LIGHTS BEING ALL HIGHLIGHTED. OBVIOUSLY THE DEALER COULD NOT REPRODUCE THIS BUT REPLACED THE 'SHIFTER MECHANISIM / SHIFT LEVER HOUSING, AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION CONSOLE SHIFTER' AND NOW IN JANUARY OF 2013 AT 83369 MILES, WHILE DRIVING HOME FROM LUNCH WE COULD NOT GET THE VEHICLE TO COME OUT OF FIRST AND THE GEAR INDICATOR LIGHTS WERE ALL HIGHLIGHTED. AND FOR ABOUT 2 OR MORE MONTHS HAVE HAD THE SAME ISSUES AS BEFORE WITH THE VEHICLE CUTTING OFF, ACCELERATION ISSUES, JUMPING WHILE IN DRIVE AT A STOP LIGHT. WAITING FOR THE DEALERSHIP TO CALL BACK BECAUSE ITS A JEEP AND YOU CANT HAVE NEWER JEEPS REPAIRED BY ANYONE OTHER THAN A DEALERSHIP. COMPLETE RACKET. NOT TO MENTION THAT YOU CAN'T EVEN CHECK THE TRANSMISSION FLUID, THAT HAS TO BE DONE BY A DEALERSHIP ALSO. WILL NOT BUY JEEP AGAIN! EVER!!!!! *TR

VEHICLE STALLS RANDOMLY. STALLS AT STOP LIGHTS, WHILE DRIVING AT ALL SPEEDS, EVEN AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. VEHICLE LOSES POWER WHEN PULLING OUT INTO TRAFFIC. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 JEEP COMMANDER. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 60 MPH, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY STALLED. THE CONTACT MERGED TO THE SHOULDER AND WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE TECHNICIAN ADVISED THAT THE ELECTRONIC SHIFT MODULE WOULD HAVE TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 65,000.

I WAS PULLING OUT ONTO THE HIGHWAY. AS I GOT UP TO AROUND 15 MPH, ALL THE SHIFT INDICATOR LIGHTS LIT UP ,AROUND PARK, NEUTRAL, DRIVE AND REVERSE. MY ACCELERATION CUT OFF. I COULDN'T ACCELERATE PAST, MAYBE, 20 MPH. THE RPMS WOULD GO UP, WITH NO RESPONSE FROM THE VEHICLE. I HAD CARS COMING UP FAST BEHIND ME AND I COULDN'T GO ANY FASTER OR PULL OFF, TILL THE NEXT TURN OFF. ALSO, IF I'M PULLING OUT, FROM A STOP, SOMETIMES I JUST LOSE POWER AND MY CAR CRAWLS ON TO THE ROAD, ESPECIALLY IF ON A INCLINE. IT'S REALLY SCARY AND DANGEROUS. *TR

I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM PICKING UP MY DAUGHTER FROM A SCHOOL EVENT WHEN SUDDENLY MY CAR SLOWED DOWN ON ITS OWN DOWN TO 10 MPH. THEN THE CAR COMPLETELY STOPPED. ON THE CONTROL CONSOLE IT ONLY READ "SERVICE PARK ASSIST" AND THE DRIVE POSITION CONTROLS WHERE ALL HIGHLIGHTED AND BOXED OUT (DRNP). I LOST ALL CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE OTHER THAN TURNING THE WHEEL. I TRIED TO ACCELERATE BY PRESSING THE GAS AND IT JUST REVVED THE ENGINE AND DID NOTHING ELSE. I SWERVED OFF THE ROAD AND HIT A MEDIAN THAT TOOK OUT THE TIRE AND LEFT DAMAGE TO THE LEFT OF THE CAR UNDER CARRIAGE. I HAD TO SHIFT THE GEAR INTO PARK AND BACK TO DRIVE IN ORDER FOR THE CAR TO START UP AGAIN. I TOOK THE CAR TO A LOCAL JEEP CHRYSLER DODGE SERVICE DEPOT AND HAD IT RAN FOR A DIAGNOSTIC FOR AT WHICH TIME THEY TOLD ME THAT IT WAS A COMMON ISSUE FOUND IN THIS MODEL AND EARLIER MODELS AND THAT IT WASN'T COVERED BY THE POWER TRAIN THAT THE VEHICLE WOULD NEED $1100.00 IN REPAIRS TO FIX AN ELECTRONIC TRANSFORMER SHIFT MODULATOR. I HAD JUST PURCHASED THE CAR ON OCTOBER 31 FROM A JEEP CHRYSLER DODGE DEALERSHIP AND LESS THAN THREE WEEKS LATER THE CAR IS FOR CRAP. AND THE DEALERSHIP REFUSED TO FIX THE PROBLEM AND JEEP HAS NOT ISSUED A RECALL FOR THIS ISSUE BUT THEY HAVE FOR THE 2006 MODEL. THIS PROBLEM IS LIFE THREATENING. IT CAN OCCUR AT ANYTIME AT ANY SPEED. IF I WERE ON A EXPRESSWAY MY CHILDREN AND I WOULD PROBABLY BE DEAD. JEEP NEEDS TO BE PURSED FOR THIS ISSUE AND FORCED TO FIX THE DAMAGE ON ANY VEHICLES REPORTING THIS ISSUE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 JEEP COMMANDER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING 70 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS MERGED TO THE SHOULDER, THE ENGINE WAS TURNED OFF AND IMMEDIATELY RESTARTED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER TWO WEEKS PRIOR TO THE FAILURE BUT THE CONTACT WAS NOT ADVISED THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE VEHICLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 100,000. UPDATED 1/11/13 *CN THE CONSUMER STATED THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER TO BE REPAIRED FOR THE THIRD TIME ON JANUARY 3. UPDATED 1/23/2013 *JS

THE ENGINE OF THE VEHICLE WILL STOP AT LOW SPEEDS <30MPH. HAPPENS IN TRAFFIC AND REPESENTS A POTIENTAL SAFEY HAZARD. FORTUNALY IT HAS NOT STOPPED ON ANY RAILROAD TRACKS OR IN AN INTERSECTION. HAS OCCURED OVER 2 MONTHS. HAVE TAKEN TO THE AUTHORIZED JEEP DEALSHIP AND THEY HAVE NOT RESOLVED THE ISSUE. READING THE PRIOR INCIDENTS REPORTED TO THE AGENCY, THE STOPPING OF THE VEHICLE SEEMS TO BE A CHRONIC AND PERSISTANT PROBLEM THAT REPRESENTS A SAFETY RISK TO ANY ONE THAT DRIVES THIS MAKE AND MODEL OF VEHICLE. THE MANUFACTURE DOES NOT EVEN SEEM TO KNOW WHAT IS CAUSING THE ISSUE. *TR

2007 JEEP COMMANDER LIMITED 5.7L HEMI STALLED AGAIN WHILE DRIVING. THIS TIME, MY DAUGHTER WAS PULLING INTO THE DRIVEWAY WHEN IT STALLED AND SHE HAD NO CONTROL OVER THE BRAKES OR STEERING BECAUSE THEY DON'T WORK WHEN THE VEHICLE STALLS. SHE JUST ABOUT DROVE THROUGH THE GARAGE DOOR. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE AND MUST BE ADDRESSED BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT OR EVEN WORSE, KILLED. I TOOK IT TO THE JEEP DEALERSHIP AND THEY UPDATED THE PCM, BUT AS SOON AS I LEFT IT STALLED AGAIN, SO I TOOK IT BACK AND THEY REPLACED AN IGNITION COIL. AS SOON AS I PULLED OFF THE HIGHWAY ON MY WAY HOME, IT STALLED AGAIN. THEY WANT TO REPLACE ALL OF THE IGNITION COILS WHICH WILL COST ABOUT $550, AND THEY CLAIM THIS MAY FIX THE ISSUE. I DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW JEEP DOESN'T KNOW HOW TO FIX THIS ISSUE. THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF JEEP OWNERS THAT ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUE WITH NO FIX. THAT'S ALL WE WANT IS A SOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM BEFORE SOMEONE DIES. *TR
