ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, SEATS, SUSPENSION
ALL THE LIGHTS ON MY DASH PANEL WENT ON & I LOST POWER OF THE VEHICLE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. IT CAME BACK ON THEN OFF & ON. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES. MY CATALYTIC CONVERTER HAS BROKEN INTO A FEW PIECES. THE DEALERSHIP SAID THIS HAPPENS OFTEN TO THESE VEHICLES & BELIEVES THERE IS A RECALL ON THEM. I HAVE HAD MY VEHICLE 4 1/2 YRS & THIS IS THE 2ND TIME IT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. MY STRUTS HAVE GONE A FEW TIMES ON MY 2006 JEEP COMMANDER. THE REAR SEATBELT IN THE MIDDLE & DRIVER REAR DON'T LATCH & WHEN THEY DO ITS REALLY TIGHT ON MY DAUGHTER. LASTLY MULTIPLE ISSUES WITH THE REAR DOORS BOTH PASSENGER & DRIVER SIDES. THE HANDLES DON'T WORK ALL THE TIME. THEY HAVE BOTH BEEN FIXED 3 DIFFERENT OCCASIONS. THEY OPEN WHEN THEY FEEL LIKE IT. THE CHILD LOCK IS NOT ON.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
WHILE DRIVING AT NORMAL SPEED(S) 35-50MPH ALL DASH LIGHTS CAME ON IN SEQUENCE AND THEN THE ENGINE STALLED. LUCKILY THIS WAS AT 230 AM AND NEAR A CLOSED BUSINESS PARKING LOT AND I WAS ABLE TO COAST OFF THE ROAD WAY. WITHIN A FEW SECONDS OF THE VEHICLE MOTION STOPPING THE LIGHTS, RADIO AND ALL ELECTRIC DIED AND WOULD NOT START. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE AND I GUESS JEEP IS WAITING FOR SOMEONE TO DIE AND HAVE THEIR FAMILY SUE THEM. I HAVE SEEN SEVERAL COMPLAINTS ON 2006 COMMANDERS DOING THE SAME THING. I BOUGHT MINE 12/24/2018 AND I AM THE THIRD OWNER. FIRST OWNER WAS A LEASEE AND PUT 22K MILES ON IT. SECOND OWNER HAD THE VEHICLE FROM 2010 TO 12/15/2018 AND IT HAD 80,500 MILES WHEN I BOUGHT IT. I HAVE ONLY PUT LESS THAN 1000 MILES ON IT AND I AM HAVING SERIOUS CONCERNS ON KEEPING IT. 3.7V6/AUTO 4X4 SPORT

ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
THE 2007 JEEP COMMANDER I OWN IS HAVING A FUEL PUMP RELAY ISSUE.IT WILL NOT START BUT CONTINUOUSLY TURNS OVER ALSO WE HAVE HAD THE CAR STALL OUT ON THE HIGHWAY AT HIGH SPEEDS MAKING IT A RATHER DANGEROUS SITUATION. MANY OF THE VEHICLES FROM 07 AND UP HAD A RECALL FOR THIS EXACT REASON BUT UNFORTUNATELY MINE WAS NOT COVERED UNDER THIS RECALL. I AM CERTAIN THAT THIS IS MY ISSUE BUT THE MANUFACTURER HAS REFUSED TO DO ANYTHING TO FIX THE PROBLEM WITHOUT PAYING AN ARM AND A LEG.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
I BOUGHT MY VEHICLE AT A NISSAN DEALERSHIP AND DIDN'T KNOW THAT IT LEAKED INTO THE CABIN ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE FOOT WELL BECAUSE OF THE DRAIN TUBES FOR THE SUNROOF. I TOOK IT IN THEY SAID IT WAS FIXED BUT THE VERY NEXT TIME IT RAINED IT WAS SOAKED AGAIN AND BY THEN I FOUND OUT WHAT IS REALLY GOING ON WITH THE VEHICLE. IT'S NOT THAT I DON'T WANT TO BE A GOOD CONSUMER AND NOT MAKE ANY WAVES, BUT I DON'T WANT TO KEEP PAYING FOR A LEAKING VEHICLE, AND DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO. WHAT HAPPENS IF I GO TO STEP OUT OF THE VEHICLE AND SLIP AND FALL, I HAVE FEET ANKLE PROBLEMS AS IT IS AND IT'S DETRIMENTAL TO MY HEALTH SHOULD THAT HAPPEN.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, POWER TRAIN
TAMARA RECALL THE JEEP WILL CUT OFF RANDOMLY WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. IT WILL ALSO MAKE ATTEMPTS TO CUT OFF WHILE DRIVING AT 60 MPH AND BELOW. THE ESP LIGHT AND TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT WILL COME ON. ONCE ABLE TO GET THE JEEP STOPPED WITH OUT GETTING IN AN ACCIDENT IT WILL RESTART AND ALL LIGHTS WILL GO OFF. THIS HAS HAPPENED NOW 3 TIMES WITH IN 4 DAYS WITH IT CUTTING COMPLETELY OFF AND 5 TIMES TRYING TO WHILE DRIVING. THE 1ST TIME IT WAS ON A HIGHWAY GOING ABOUT 50 MILES AND HOUR. THE 2ND TIME I WAS GETTING OFF THE INTERSTATE WHILE GOING AROUND A CURVE GOING ABOUT 30 MILES AN HR. THE 3RD TIME I WAS DOING 35 MILES AN HR ON A BUSY STREET. THE TIMES THAT IT HAS ATTEMPTED TO SHUT OFF BUT DIDN'T I WAS GOING BETWEEN 45 AND 60 MILES AN HR. THIS IS UNSAFE FOR ANYONE TO BE DRIVING AND HAVE HAPPEN. IT CAN CAUSE ME TO HAVE ACCIDENT AND OR TO CAUSE A ACCIDENT. THIS CAN CAUSE SERIOUS HARM AND LOSS OF LIFE. I AM NOT SURE IF IT IS THE IGNITION SWITCH OR AN ISSUE WITH THE MOTOR OR WIRING. SOMETHING IS WRONG. I SEE ON OTHER FORUMS THAT I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE HAVING THIS ISSUE. I HAVE CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP THAT I HAVE RECENTLY PURCHASED THIS JEEP FROM I AM SCARED TO DRIVE IT. I AM IN FEAR FOR MYSELF AND KIDS AND OTHERS.

2006 JEEP COMMANDER V8 4.7. I HAVE TWO YOUNG CHILDREN AND THIS IS SERIOUSLY A SAFETY HAZARD THAT JEEP/CHRYSLER WILL NOT ADDRESS OR RECALL. ALMOST ALL 2006 JEEP COMMANDERS HAVE THIS ISSUE AND IT'S VERY DANGEROUS AND A PASSENGER COULD BECOME EASILY TRAPPED INSIDE THE VEHICLE DURING A FIRE/ACCIDENT DUE TO THE DOORS NOT BEING ABLE TO BE OPENED BECAUSE OF THE BROKEN DOOR HANDLES. THE HANDLES ARE NOT A SEPARATE PIECE THAT YOU CAN JUST REPLACE. THE WHOLE ENTIRE DOOR PANEL NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AND IT'S VERY COSTLY APPROXIMATELY $500 PER DOOR OR MORE. AND ALL 4 HANDLES ARE BROKEN THIS IS A HASSARD AND OVER 500.00 PER HANDLE TO BE FIXED PROFESSIONAL AND FOR SAFETY IS RIDILOUS ..SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE ABOUT THIS AND I HAVE SEEN THOUSANDS OF COMPLAINTS REGARDING THIS ISSUE..PAYING GOOD MONEY FOR A VEHICLE AND THIS IS NOT CONSIDERED AN ISSUE THIS IS SO NOT RIGHT TO ANY OF US THAT OWN THIS VEHICHLE"06 JEEP COMMANDER AND ALL 4 HANDLES ARE BROKEN THIS IS A HASSARD AND OVER 500.00 PER HANDLE TO BE FIXED PROFESSIONAL AND FOR SAFETY IS RIDILOUS ..SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE ABOUT THIS AND I HAVE SEEN THOUSANDS OF COMPLAINTS REGARDING THIS ISSUE..PAID $36,000 FOR THIS VEHICLE BRAND NEW AND STILL ORIGINAL OWNER BUT UNABLE TO DRIVE AT THE MOMENT DUE TO DOORS AND SAFETY ISSUE. THIS IS NOT CONSIDERED AN ISSUE BY JEEP CHRYSLER THIS IS SO NOT RIGHT TO ANY OF US THAT OWN THIS VEHICHLE". EXTREMELY DANGEROUS!! THIS HAS BEEN A PROBLEM FOR SOME TIME NOW WITH MY VEHICLE JUST GOTTEN WORSE OVER TIME AND HAVE CONTACTED JEEP ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS TO HAVE FIXED THEY WILL NOT COVER THE COSTS. WE SHOULD NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS REPAIR IT IS DEFECTIVE MATERIALS/PRODUCT AND THEY NEED TO BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THESE REPAIRS!!!!! OR TAKE THE CAR BACK AND GIVE US A NEW ONE!!!!

ENGINE, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
INTERMITTENT INABILITY TO START VEHICLE. MY JEEP COMMANDER 2006 HAS A PROBLEM THAT IS BEING DISCUSSED ALL OVER THE INTERNET IN CHAT ROOMS AND BLOGS BUT IS NOT BEING ACKNOWLEDGED BY JEEP. THE ISSUE OCCURRED WHEN JEEP WAS IN PARKED POSITION. I AM A DISABLED MAN AND I WAS LEFT STRANDED IN VERY COLD WEATHER FOR TWO HOURS WITH A CAR THAT WOULD NOT START. IT HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THE STARTER, OR THE SOLENOID. THIS SEEMS TO BE A SERIOUS ISSUE WITH JEEPS AND A SAFETY ISSUE TO THE OWNER ESPECIALLY IF THE OWNER IS STRANDED AND HAS NO HEAT AND UNABLE TO WALK TO GET HELP. I AM REQUESTING NHTSA TO LOOK INTO THIS BECAUSE JEEP IS STONEWALLING THE PUBLIC AND THIS IS A SERIOUS AND DANGEROUS ISSUE THAT THE PUBLIC SHOULD BE AWARE OF BY WAY OF A RECALL. PEOPLE RELY UPON THEIR AUTOMOBILES AND EXPECT THEM TO OPERATE ACCORDINGLY AND NOT TO HAVE RANDOM AND INTERMITTENT ENGINE NON STARTS FOR NO APPARENT REASON AND WITH NO EXPLANATION FROM JEEP AND NO SOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM GOING ON 9 YEARS NOW. PLEASE INVESTIGATE THIS WIDESPREAD PROBLEM KNOWN TO BE AN ISSUE WITH JEEP COMMANDER.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE
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.
