2007 JEEP COMMANDER Complaints

IT WAS A RAINY DAY. I PULLED MY CAR IN TO THE GARAGE AND SHUT OFF THE ENGINE. PULLED OUT THE KEY AND ENTERED MY HOUSE. THE GARAGE IS CONNECTED TO MY HOME. I CAME BACK TO THE GARAGE SOME TIME LATER TO FIND THE ENGINE WAS STILL ON. I RAN TO THE DRIVERS SEAT TO SEE NO KEY IN THE IGNITION AND VERIFIED THE REMOTE ENGINE FEATURE WASN'T ENGAGED, IT IS DESIGNED TO TURNOFF AFTER THE CAR DOOR IS OPEN FOR A SHORT TIME. THE ENGINE WOULDN'T SHUT OFF. I BROUGHT IT TO MY HUSBAND, WHO DROVE IT A BIT AND COULD NOT GET THE ENGINE OFF. EVENTUALLY IT SELF CORRECTED. A TRULY DANGEROUS ISSUE SINCE THIS CAR IS PARKED IN MY HOME. WE BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALER ABOUT 4 TIMES, AND WHILE THE ENGINE HASN'T DONE THAT AGAIN, VARIOUS PARTS OF THE CAR TURN ON SPONTANEOUSLY. A SINGLE HEAD LIGHT, A SINGLE BRAKE LIGHT, ALL THE LIGHTS. IT SEEMS THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM NO LONGER HAS FULL CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AND THAT IS DANGEROUS. I BELIEVE MY CAR IS JUST ONE OF MANY 2007 JEEPS THAT ARE HAVING ENORMOUS ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS, MY CASE JUST ILLUSTRATES HOW DANGEROUS THIS COULD BE. A CAR ENGINE RUNNING SPONTANEOUSLY IS UNACCEPTABLE AND IT IS CLEAR THIS IS JUST A SYMPTOM OF A COMMON PROBLEM TO ALL THESE JEEPS. *TR

PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE USED ABOUT A YEAR AGO AND HAS BEEN HAVING ISSUES FOR ABOUT 5 MONTHS ON ABOUT 20 DIFFERENT OCCASIONS, AND SEEMS TO BE WORSE IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC OR AT A COMPLETE STOP. WHILE DRIVING IT WILL STALL AND ACT AS IF IT IS GOING TO DIE. IT SEEMS TO BE WORSE AT A COMPLETE STOP BUT HAS BEEN GRADUALLY DOING MORE WHILE DRIVING. IT HAS COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN THREE DIFFERENT TIMES. USUALLY, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON. HAS STARTED DOING IT NOW AT ACCELERATED SPEEDS. REPLACED SPARK PLUGS WITH NO CHANGE. TOOK TO AUTO ZONE AND READ NOTHING ON THEIR COMPUTER. IT SEEMS OTHERS ARE HAVING THIS SAME ISSUE AND I CANT BELIEVE THERE HAS NOT BEEN A RECALL FOR THIS SINCE IT WOULD CAUSE A SAFETY ISSUE. IT DOES NOT SEEM THAT THE PROBLEM HAS BEEN DIAGNOSED CORRECTLY YET FROM READING THE OTHER COMPLAINTS AND JEEP SHOULD HAVE TO BE MADE TO LOOK INTO THIS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 JEEP COMMANDER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS, THE ENGINE STALLED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A LOCAL SHOP WHERE THEY WERE UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE, BUT OFFERED NO ASSISTANCE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 47,700 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 48,000.

AT RANDOM TIMES, WHEN TRYING TO START THE JEEP IT WONT START AND SAY TRANSMISSION OVER TEMP. AT FIRST IT WOULD TAKE A COUPLE DAYS BEFORE IT WOULD START AGAIN. I USED IT FOR A FEW MORE DAYS AND IT DID THE SAME THING. A COUPLE HOURS LATER IT STARTED BACK UP. AFTER A FEW MORE TIMES OF HAPPENING IVE NOTICED YOU CAN PUT IT IN NEUTRAL AND BACK IN PARK AND SOMETIMES IT RESTARTS. THE DEALERSHIP HAS LOOKED AT IT AND SAID THEY HAD ANOTHER ONE WITH THE SAME PROBLEM BUT NO FIX FOR IT.

DRIVING AT 55 MPH AND SUDDENLY LOST POWER AND STALLED. THE OIL LIGHT CAME ON AS WELL AS THE ANTI LOCK BRAKE LIGHT. I COASTED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND CAME TO A STOP. I STARTED THE VEHICLE RIGHT BACK UP AND DROVE STRAIGHT TO THE DEALERSHIP. THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM BUT FOUND A STORED CODE THAT THEY SENT TO CHRYSLER FOR CLARIFICATION. DEALERSHIP SAID THEY WOULD CONTACT ME WHEN THEY HEARD FROM CHRYSLER WHAT THE PROBLEM IS. *TR
