2007 JEEP COMMANDER 4X4 Complaints

I WAS DRIVING MY 2007 JEEP COMMANDER LIMITED EDITION 4X4 IN CITY TRAFFIC DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 25 MPH IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC WHEN IT STALLED FOR NO APPARENT REASON. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ALSO CAME ON. AFTER RESTARTING THE ENGINE, THE PROBLEM WENT AWAY. THIS STALLING AND ENGINE LIGHT WARNING HAS SINCE HAPPENED AT LEAST 100 MORE TIMES OVER THE LAST 4 YEARS. DEALER AND INDEPENDENT MECHANICS ARE UNABLE TO TROUBLESHOOT THE PROBLEM. THE MOST RECENT EVENT HAPPENED ON 6/8/14. COMPLETE ENGINE STALL ON INTERSTATE HIGHWAY. VEHICLE WAS TOWED 65 MILES TO HOME TOWN. MECHANIC REPLACED ALTERNATOR AND BATTERY. ENGINE STARTED FINE, RAN WELL FOR 2 DAYS AND THEN ENGINE LIGHT CAME BACK ON WITH INTERMITTENT STALLING AND ROUGH IDLING. JEEP IS AT DEALER AS WE SPEAK. DEALER STATED THEY CANNOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM AND WILL KEEP THE VEHICLE OVERNIGHT AND TRY TO DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM TOMORROW. *TR

VEHICLE WOULD NOT START. RADIO AND HEAD LIGHTS WILL GO ON. ALL YOU WOULD HEAR IS A CLICK. CHECKED BATTERY AND STILL WILL NOT START. TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC AND THEY DID A DIAGNOSTIC AND NOTHING SHOWED UP. THE MECHANIC HAD IT FOR A TWO DAYS AND IT STARTED. THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH VEHICLE. THE INCIDENT HAPPENED TWICE. LOOKED ON LINE AND NOTICED OTHER PEOPLE HAD SAME PROBLEM WITH VEHICLE NOT STARTING. ALSO, HAVING WATER COME IN THROUGH THE SIDE DOOR HANDLES. I'M NOT THE ONLY PERSON WITH THESE PROBLEMS. NO WONDER THEY DISCONTINUED THIS VEHICLE. *TR

DOOR LOCK ACTUATOR FAILED ON DRIVER'S SIDE FRONT DOOR. DOOR NOW MAKES A DUCK CALL/ BUZZ EVERYTIME IT LOCKS. UPON RESEARCH THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH COMMANDERS AND A RECALL SHOULD BE REQUIRED TO FIX THIS ISSUE. *TR

STARTING IN SEPTEMBER OF 2013 WHILE ON THE INTERSTATE TRAVELING AT 70MPH IN THE MIDDLE LANE OF 3, THE VEHICLE SHUT OFF AND THE WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON AND WE HAD TO DRIFT TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. WE GOT OF THE ROAD TO THE SIDE PUT THE JEEP IN PARK AND AFTER SEVERAL TRIES IT RESTARTED. WE HAVE NOTICED ON OCCASIONS AFTER THIS, WHILE SLOWING DOWN TO TURN THERE IS A CLUNK IN THE DRIVETRAIN. SOON AFTER THE CLUNK STARTS, THAT IS WHEN THE JEEP WILL SHUT OFF. IT HAS HAPPENED AT HIGHWAY SPEED AND AT SIGNAL LIGHTS. AFTER THE FIRST IT SHUT OFF WE TOOK IT TO A JEEP DEALER AND THEY PUT ON IN ON THE COMPUTED BUT SAID IT DIDN'T SHOW ANYTHING. THIS HAS HAPPENED ABOUT 10 TIMES SINCE SEPTEMBER AND YOU TAKE YOUR LIKE IN YOUR HANDS EVERYTIME YOU GET ON THE INTERSTATE. *TR

2ND CAR OWN 2007 JEEP COMMANDER HAS GONE OUT OF CONTROL WHILE DRIVING, TURNING OFF WHILE DRIVING OR AT A STOP. RECALLS ON FILE WITH SAME HISTORY BUT DOES NOT INCLUDE EITHER SECOND VIN NUMBER. DEALER SERVICES STATE NOTHING WRONG WITH MY CAR AND HAVE NO EXPLANATION OF INCIDENTS THAT OCCURS. AND DEMANDS TO PICK UP MY CARS. *TR

THE CAR TURN OFF ARE STALL WHILE DRIVING. NORMALLY OCCURS WHEN FOOT IS SLIGHT ON THE PEDDLE HOWEVER ALSO ATTEMPTS TO STALL AT HIGH SPEEDS. A REVIEW OF THE INTERNET SHOWS THAT THIS LIFE THREATENING PROBLEM IS A FREQUENT EXPERIENCE AND A LONG TERM REPORTED PROBLEM. I AM HAPPY TO PROVIDE THIS INFORMATION UPON REQUEST. DOES THERE NEED TO BE A LOSE OF LIFE TO OBTAIN RELIEF OF THIS ISSUE. IS THIS ISSUE A RESULT OF DEMANDS BY THE EPA TO HAVE THESE CARS RUN AT AN IDEAL SPEED THAT IS TOO LOW? IS THE EPA ALSO THE REASON FOR THIS PROBLEM? LIVES ARE AT RISK WITH NO ACTION BEING TAKEN TO PROTECT CONSUMERS. *TR

THIS WILL BE THE 3RD ELECTRIC SHIFT MODULE PUT IN THIS VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE LOST POWER THEN STALLED IN TRAFFIC. THE VEHICLE, WHILE STOPPED IN TRAFFIC, WOULD SURGE.

AS TIME WENT ON, THE INCIDENTS WERE MORE FREQUENT. THE PREVIOUS SWITCH MODULE (21030400768004143-AF) WAS REPLACED ($1067.00/DEALER ONLY PART/REPAIR COST). THE LATEST MODULE (DEALER ONLY PART COST ME $1008.04 (PART & REPAIR COST). THIS IS THE 2ND REPORT TO YOU ON THIS VEHICLE. *TR
