2007 JEEP COMMANDER Complaints

WHILE DRIVING AT 60 MPH ON THE HIGHWAY, MY JEEP HAS JOLTED LIKE IT HAD LOST POWER FOR A BRIEF MOMENT. THE JOLT WAS SEVERE ENOUGH THAT IT MADE MY ARMS ACHE FROM IT. THIS WORRIES ME AS I HAVE READ MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT COMPLETE STALLS AT HIGH SPEEDS AND THIS COULD CAUSE A SEVERE ACCIDENT. MY JEEP HAS 150,000 MILES ON IT. THIS ISSUE NEEDS TO BE INVESTIGATED BEFORE THERE IS A FATALITY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 JEEP COMMANDER. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 25 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED AND THE OIL PRESSURE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT SWITCHED INTO NEUTRAL AND RESTARTED THE VEHICLE NORMALLY. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE FAILURE OCCURRED TWO OTHER TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC, BUT THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 113,900.

2007 JEEP COMMANDER WITH 112,000 EST MILES, BOUGHT USED IN AK 2016. A WEEK AFTER I BOUGHT IT I KEPT HAVING O2 SENSOR CODES POP UP. I HAVE HAD ALL SENSORS REPLACED MORE THAN ONCE AND NUMEROUS OTHER PARTS WITH THE LATEST BEING THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER. I HAVE SPENT SEVERAL THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS TRYING TO SOLVE THIS ISSUE. TODAY WAS MY BREAKING POINT, I WAS DRIVING ON I-24 TO NASHVILLE TO TAKE MY SON TO AN APPOINTMENT AT VANDERBILT. IT WAS RAINING THIS MORNING, ALL OF A SUDDEN THE RED LIGHTING BOLT AND OTHER LIGHTS CAME ON. MY JEEP LOST POWER, THE BRAKES DIDN'T WORK, THE STEERING LOCKED UP AND I WAS SCARED I WAS GOING TO GET HIT. I PUT MY HAZARDS ON AND WAS ABLE TO GET ACROSS 2 LANES OF TRAFFIC TO THE SHOULDER. I SHUT THE JEEP OFF AND TURNED IT BACK ON AND IT WAS NORMAL AGAIN WITH JUST THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON. I WAS SO SCARED TO DRIVE BACK TO CLARKSVILLE, FEARING THAT IT WOULD HAPPEN AGAIN. I SAW THAT I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE WHO HAS HAD THIS ISSUE. I CALLED CORPORATE AND THEY SAID THERE IS NOTHING REALLY THEY CAN DO. I SAID WHAT IS IT GOING TAKE, SOMEONE, DYING OR GETTING INTO A WRECK?? I AM DISAPPOINTED IN HOW THIS HAS BEEN HANDLED. MY LATEST CARFAX SHOWS THAT THIS JEEP HAS HAD THE SAME ISSUES OVER AND OVER, WITH NOTHING REALLY GETTING RESOLVED.

4WD SYSTEM ALSO LIGHT ON WHEN DRIVING, AND ON THE DASHBOARD PARKING YELLOW LIGHT STAY ON, IN MOTION IN THE CITY AND HIGHWAY

I HAD TRANSMISSION SPEED SENSOR REPLACED 2 1/2 WEEKS AGO IT SEEMS TO WENT OUT ALREADY TRUCK WON'T GO OVER 30 MPH AND CAR JERKS WHILE TRYING TO REACH IT THIS HAPPENED ON THE HIGHWAY AS I WAS ALMOST KILLED TRYING TO GET OFF THE PROBLEM EXISTED BEFORE REPLACING THE TRANSMISSION SPEED SENSOR THEN A FEW WEEKS AFTER IT WAS REPLACED I OWN A USED VEHICLE I'M NOT SURE MY VEHICLE RECEIVED ANY SAFETY RECALL PROCEDURES BUT IT NEEDS TO

UNDER HEAVY RAIN, THE VEHICLE LEAKS ON THE INSIDE TO THE POINT OF A BIG PUDDLE IN THE FLOOR OF THE DRIVER SIDE WHILE STATIONARY. THIS HAS ALSO CAUSED A PROBLEM WITH MY CRUISE CONTROL AND ON-SCREEN NAV IT NOW GOES ON AND OFF DISPLAYING THE JEEP LOGO AS IF THE CAR WAS JUST STARTING UP AND I AM IN THE MIDDLE OF DRIVING.

WHILE SITTING AT A LIGHT. MY JEEP JUST DIED OUT ON ME. NO REASON NOTHING ACTING OUTSIDE OF THE NORMAL. TRIED TO RESTART AND AFTER A FEW TRIES WAS ABLE TO RESTART.

JEEP SHUTS DOWN WHILE DRIVE DOWN ROAD, JEEP RESTARTS WITHOUT ISSUE, AND WILL RUN WITHOUT PROBLEMS. THIS HAS BEEN THE 11TH TIME THIS HAS HAPPENS, THIS TIME I WAS ALSO REAR ENDED BY A SEMI TRUCK. I HAVE HAD THIS LOOKED AT FROM DODGE MANY TIMES OVER THE YEARS, BUT THEY CAN'T SEEM TO FIND THE ISSUE,OR DON'T CARE TOO. BUT TO THERE DEF FENCE IT ONLY HAPPENS EVER SO OFTEN.

JEEP LOSES POWER AND SHUTS DOWN WHILE DRIVING IN CITY AND ON THE HIGHWAY AT RANDOM SPEEDS. ALSO WILL SHUT DOWN WHILE STATIONARY. CAUSES LOSS OF POWER STEERING AND BRAKES. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT HAS NOT COME ON. THE ONLY WAY TO RESTART IS TO FULLY PLACE IN PARK AND COMPLETELY REMOVE THE KEY. VIOLENT SHUT DOWN AND TRANSMISSION IS NOT SHIFTING CORRECTLY. I HAVE HAD THE ASD RELAY REPLACED AND WIRING CHECKED WITH NO FIX. VERY DANGEROUS WITH MY 3 YEAR OLD IN THE CAR.

OUR 2007 JEEP COMMANDER HAS HAD A RECURRING ISSUE FOR OVER A YEAR WHILE IN OPERATION WHETHER IN MOTION OR STATIONARY, VEHICLE WILL SHUT OFF RANDOMLY. WHEN YOU ATTEMPT TO RESTART THE VEHICLE, IT STARTS RIGHT BACK UP AGAIN. THE RANDOM VEHICLE SHUTDOWNS TAKE PLACE IN ALL DRIVING CONDITIONS AND REGARDLESS OF UPHILL OR DOWNHILL DRIVING. BROUGHT THE JEEP COMMANDER TO THE JEEP DEALERSHIP AND THEY REPLACED THE IGNITION SWITCH AS PART OF A RECALL. THIS DID NOT RESOLVE THE PROBLEM AT ALL AND THE DEALERSHIP WAS UNABLE TO FIGURE OUT CAUSES FOR RANDOM STALLING EVEN WHEN THE COMMANDER FAILED DURING TESTING WITH TECHNICIANS. I REPLACED VIRTUALLY EVERY SENSOR I COULD IMAGINE INCLUDING, THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR AND IDLE AIR CONTROL SENSOR, EGR, MAP SENSOR, AIR INTAKE SENSOR AND THE PCM. NO LUCK, WE HAVE THE SAME RANDOM STALLING AND THE PROCEDURE IS, RESTART THE VEHICLE IN NEUTRAL FOR RECOVERY WHILE IN MOTION. THE RESTART DOES NOT FAIL, BUT THE RANDOM STALLING CONTINUES SOMETIMES FIVE OR SIX TIMES ON A 100 MILE TRIP. THIS IS DANGEROUS AND CAN GET SOMEONE OR THEIR FAMILY KILLED.
