2007 JEEP COMMANDER Complaints

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 JEEP COMMANDER 4X4. THE CONTACT WAS DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH ON NORMAL ROAD CONDITIONS. THE ENGINE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS COASTED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. THE VEHICLE RESTARTED AND CONTINUED IN NORMAL OPERATION. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER ON TWO SEPARATE OCCASIONS TO RESET THE ELECTRONIC SENSORS. RECENTLY, THE DEALER STATED THAT THE ELECTRONIC SHIFT MODULE REQUIRED REPLACEMENT. THE VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN REPAIRED AT THIS TIME. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 25,000.

2007 JEEP COMMANDER STALLING WHILE IDLING AT A STOP OR PARKED AND IN IDLE. THE VEHICLE IDLES ROUGH AND BEGINS TO STALL. SOMETIMES IT RECOVERS BUT WHEN IT DOES IT ACCELERATES AND LUNGES FORWARD. IF MY FOOT WAS NOT FIRMLY ON THE BRAKE, I WOULD SLAM INTO THE CAR OR ANY OBJECT IN FRONT OF ME. I HAVE 34,000 MILES ON IT NOW. IT HAS BEEN OCCURRING FOR OVER A YEAR NOW (12-15K MILES). I PURCHASED THE JEEP FROM A JEEP DEALER AFTER IT HAD BEEN OWNED FOR A YEAR AND HAD 13,000 MILES ON IT. I DO NOT KNOW IF THIS WAS A PROBLEM FOR THE PREVIOUS OWNER BUT IT IS A CONTINUING PROBLEM FOR ME. IT HAS BEEN TO THE DEALER 5 TIMES FOR THE PROBLEM AND YET TO BE DIAGNOSED OR RESOLVED. IT IS A DANGEROUS DRIVING SITUATION AND I HAVE THREE YOUNG CHILDREN IN MY CAR ON A DAILY BASIS. I HAVE NO FINANCIAL MEANS TO GET A NEW CAR SO FORCED TO DRIVE THIS UNSAFE ONE!!! PLEASE MAKE CHRYSLER RECALL AND FIX THE 2007 COMMANDER FOR THIS UNSAFE STALLING/ACCELERATING PROBLEM!! I AM PUTTING MARCH 13, 2010 AS THE INCIDENT DATE BUT IT HAS HAPPENED SO MANY TIMES IN THE PAST YEAR I COULD NOT EVEN BEGIN TO REMEMBER THEM ALL. *TR

2007 JEEP COMMANDER HAS STALLING ISSUES WHEN IT IS RAINING OR AIR IS WET. THIS OCCURS AT IDLE AND SLOW SPEEDS. THIS MODEL (2006 AND 2007) HAS MANY COMPLAINTS, BUT NOTHING IS BEING DONE TO CORRECT IT OR TO HOLD CHRYSLER RESPONSIBLE. THE STALL CAN BE DANGEROUS AND VEHICLE LUNGES FORWARD WHEN IT AUTOMATICALLY TRIED TO RECOVER BEFORE STALLING. *TR

INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6) 2007 JEEP COMMANDER [XXX] TURN THE IGNITION KEY AND DOES NOT WANT TO START, DID IT IN OCTOBER 2009 AND MARCH 10TH 2010. ALL POWER IS ON, LIGHTS, RADIO, BOOSTED BATTERY, THIS IS NOT THE ISSUE, IT FINALLY TURNED ON IDLED EXTREMELY HIGH, I TURNED IT OFF AND TRIED TO START IT OVER AND OVER AND OVER AND WOULD NOT START. BY REVIEWING THE INTERNET OTHER OWNERS OF THE 2007 JEEP COMMNADER ARE EXPERIENCING ;STALLING AND THE CAR NOT STARTING, IT APPERS TO BE AN ALTERNATOR ISSUE, BUT CHRYSLER IS SAYING THEY DON'T KNOW WHY THIS IS OCCURRING. MY CAR WAS TOWED TO SOUTH POINT DODGE, IN AUSTIN TEXAS FOR DIAGNOSTIC ANALYZING, THEY HAVE NOT TOLD ME WHAT THE PROBLEM IS. I AM CONCERNED IF THIS ISSUE IS NATIONWIDE AND CHRYSLER HAS NOT DONE A RECALL. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE IF CARS ARE STALLING ON THE HIGHWAYS AND NOT STARTING, COULD CAUSE A DEATH. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS MATTER IMMEDIATELY. [XXX] *TR

2007 JEEP COMMANDER FAILING ELECTRONIC SHIFT MODULE. THIS VEHICLE WILL SHIFT OUT OF GEAR AT ANY TIME WITHOUT WARNING. OTHER SYMPTOMS INCLUDE PARKING ASSIST FAILURE MESSAGE ON THE DASH AND ALL GEARS PRND SHOW ACTIVE AT THE SAME TIME ON THE DISPLAY. I CONTACTED JEEP AND WARNED THEM ABOUT THIS BUT THEY WILL NOT INITIATE A RECALL UNTIL FORCED TO DO SO BY THE NHTSA. *TR

2007 JEEP COMMANDER WINDSHIELD EASILY CHIPPED TWICE DURING THE YEAR OF 2008. NOT CRACKED YET, BUT WILL HAVE TO REPLACE EVENTUALLY. I DID NOT REALIZE THAT OTHER COMMANDER OWNERS HAD EXPERIENCED SAME UNTIL READING ONLINE FORUM. THIS SEEMS TO BE A DESIGN FLAW. *TR

2007 JEEP COMMANDER V8 WITH HEMI THE VEHICLE STALLS FOR NO REASON. I COULD BE DRIVING 45MPH THEN FOR NO REASON ALL POWER TO THE VEHICLE FAILS. THIS HAS OCCURRED 5 TIMES IN 1 WEEK. I LOOKED UP RECALLS AND SEE THAT THE 2006 COMMANDER HAD A SIMILAR PROBLEM THAT PROMPTED A RECALL OF THE POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE (PCM). I CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIPS AND WAS TOLD THAT MY 2007 IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE SAME RECALL, THOUGH THE PROBLEM IS THE SAME. I BELIEVE THAT THE PCM SOFTWARE NEEDS TO BE REPROGRAMMED. THIS FAILURE MAY ALLOW THE ENGINE TO CONTINUE STALLING RESULTING IN A CRASH WITHOUT WARNING. *TR

LOSS OF POWER ON FREEWAY. I HAVE A 2007 JEEP COMMANDER 4.7L V6. TWICE WHILE ON THE FREEWAY THE "SERVICE BACKUP ASSIST" LIGHT COMES ON, THEN ALL THE TRANNY INDICATORS LIGHT UP, AND VEHICLE LOSES ALL POWER.
