AIR BAGS, STRUCTURE:BODY, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
THE AIRBAG LIGHT IS ON AND AFTER TAKING IT TO THE MECHANIC, I WAS INFORMED THAT IT WILL NOT RELEASE IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT. I SEARCHED FOR A RECALL AS THE MECHANIC SUGGESTED AND FOUND NOTHING. SINCE I HAVE NEVER BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT THAT WOULD SET THE AIRBAG OFF, I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY THE LIGHT IS ON. THE LIGHTS ON THE DASHBOARD, INTERIOR LIGHTS, AUTOSTART, HEATED SEATS, REAR SENSORS, AND ANTI SKID HAVE ALL STOPPED WORKING. ALTHOUGH MY CAR IS 9 YEARS OLD, IT HAS LESS THAN 60,000 MILES AND IS WELL CARED FOR. THE MECHANIC HAS INFORMED ME THAT I HAVE A FAULTY BOARD. FAULTY SOUNDS LIKE SOMETHING JEEP SHOULD BE PAYING FOR NOT ME. BUBBLING OF PAINT ON THE HOOD OF THE TRUCK AND ITS SPREADING. AGAIN, ALL THESE ISSUES SHOULD BE COVERED BY JEEP. THESE ISSUES ARE THE RESULT OF POOR OR FAULTY MANUFACTURING PROCESSES AND SHOULD NOT BE VISITED UPON THE CONSUMER.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC)
2006 JEEP COMMANDER LIMITED 4WD. 179,000 MILES. TRACTION ASSIST IS ACTIVATING WHILE DRIVING STRAIGHT ON DRY PAVEMENT CAUSING UNEXPECTED DECELERATION POWER LOSS. WHILE DRIVING ON FLAT DRY PAVED HIGHWAY, AT APPROXIMATELY 40-45 MPH, THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO STUMBLE AND LOSE POWER. THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT WAS BLINKING DURING THIS TIME. DURING WHICH TIME, WHEN I TURN OFF THE TRACTION ASSIST VIA THE BUTTON, THE EFFECT DISAPPEARED. NO FAULT CODES WERE STORED OR SET. THIS ISSUE HAS JUST BEGUN TO OCCUR PERIODICALLY AND HAS HAPPENED APPROXIMATELY 5 TIMES. HAVE ALMOST HAD A CRASH EVENT OCCUR WHEN TRYING TO MERGE INTO TRAFFIC, AND HAD TO TURN OFF THE TRACTION ASSIST VIA THE BUTTON ON THE CENTER CONSOLE.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), STEERING, STRUCTURE:BODY
FIRST ANNOYANCE WAS THE INSIDE DOOR HANDLE ON THE DRIVERS SIDE. IT FAILED TO OPEN THE DOOR AT AROUND 45,000 MILES. THEN THE REAR PASSENGER INSIDE DOOR HANDLE JUST CRUMBLED OUT OF NOWHERE AROUND 47,000 MILES. THEN AROUND 50,000 MILES THE BRAKES 'FELT DIFFERENT' WHEN BRAKING AND IT FELT TO HARD TO PRESS DOWN ON THE PEDAL TO STOP THE VEHICLE. THE BRAKE PEDAL FELT HARD AS A ROCK THEN THE ABS WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON AND AFTER A DIAGNOSIS I WAS TOLD THAT IT HAD TO BE REPLACED. WHENEVER WE WENT THROUGH A PUDDLE OF WATER ON A TURN THE JEEPS STEERING WOULD LOCK UP AND JUST KEPT MOVING FORWARD & NOT TURNING.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE
MY FAVORITE, JEEP COMMANDER 2006 3.7 V6. 103600 MILEAGE. THE CAR SHUTS DOWN WITHOUT WARNING. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FROM LAST NOVEMBER. I FEEL LIKE I'M IN A DEATH TRAP BECAUSE WHEN CARS GOING 60 - 70 MPH ON I-495 AND CAR LOST POWER. ALL I CAN REALLY DO IS PRAY THAT MY FAMILY DON'T GET KILLED. THE DEALER FIXED FLIPPING KEY PROBLEM AT THE SAME YEAR OF SUMMER BECAUSE OF THE RECALL. THIS IS REALLY NOT RELATED I BELIEVE. IT HAPPENED 6 TIMES MOSTLY WINTER SEASON BETWEEN NOVEMBER THROUGH JANUARY EASTERN TIME LAST YEAR, AND THIS STALLING PROBLEM CAME BACK LAST SUNDAY DEC 10TH, 2017 WHILE DRIVING ON NORTHERN STATE PARKWAY TO MICRO CENTER IN NY. 3 TIMES ALREADY THIS SEASON. THE BEST WAY ONLY I FOUND FOR OUR SAFETY. SLOWLY MOVE OVER ON THE SHOULDER FINDING PLACE TO STOP WHILE SPEEDING DOWN, AND HAVE ONE CHANCE OF STOP TO BREAK VEHICLE WITHOUT POWER. HOWEVER, LUCKILY IT STARTS AGAIN AND RUNS NORMAL. THE DEALER, DAIMLER CHRYSLER CONSUMER CENTER. THEY NEVER CARE ABOUT THIS ISSUE AND KEEP CHARGING FOR THE SERVICE WITHOUT A SOLUTION. MY RESEARCH IS ON GOING TO FIND ECM, PCMA, AND FCM PROBLEMS. I AM SCARED FOR MY FAMILIES SAFETY. THE CAR CUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY. ANY IDEAS, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE HELP US.
