ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
DECEMBER 2007 - MY 06 JEEP COMMANDER STARTED WITH ELECTRICAL ISSUES. EVERYTIME, I WOULD HEAR A CLICK, THAN ALL THE LIGHTS IN MY DASH GO OFF, THAN BACK ON.. SINCE THEN IT'S DONE THIS SEVERAL TIMES, ALONG WITH A SMALL PUDDLE OF WATER IN MY RIGHT PASSENGER SIDE. I'VE BROUGHT THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER AND THEY'VE DONE EVERYTHING BUT LOOK OR FIX THE PROBLEM. THEY'VE REPLACE SINOIDS AND SHIFTERS (ALL UNDER WARRANTY) BUT NOTHING HAVING TO DO WITH THE ELECTRICAL. MY VEHICLE HAS NEVER STALLED, BUT LATELY THIS ELECTRICAL ISSUE IS HAPPENING MORE THAN EVER. MY DEALER HAS TOLD ME THEY CAN'T DO ANYTHING MORE AND TO FILE LEMON LAW ~ THIS WAS CHECKED INTO BUT BECAUSE I'M OVER MY MILEAGE I CAN'T REALLY DO MUCH. THE WORST PART ABOUT THIS WHOLE MESS IS I BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE TO FEEL SAFE, AND NOW I FEEL THAT THIS IS THE WORST CAR ON THE ROAD. CHRSYLER SHOULD NOT BE LEAVING THERE CUSTOMERS OUT TO DRY IF THIS PROBLEM EXISTS IN SO MANY OF THE SAME. TAKE SOME RESPONSIBILITY.. WE GAVE YOU OUR MONEY.. GIVE US WHAT WE PAID FOR! *TR

REFERENCE COMPLAINTS 10244597, 10247128. TODAY, DRIVING IN THE RAIN, LIGHTS DIMMED AND CAR HESITATED, EVENTUALLY STALLING WHILE IN MOTION. WHILE WE WERE AT A STOP, THE CAR AGAIN STALLED AND TOOK SEVERAL TRIES TO RESTART. I NO LONGER DRIVE WITH THE CHILDREN IN THE CAR, AND HAVE NOT SINCE THE PREVIOUS INCIDENT AT 61K. I HAVE TRIED CONTACTING JEEP THROUGH MY DEALER, WITH NO RESPONSE. TODAY I SENT AN EMAIL VIA THEIR WEBSITE, HOWEVER, I AM NOT HOPEFUL OF ANY RESPONSE. THIS WILL BE THE FINAL TIME I WILL FILE A COMPLAINT, AS I HAVE CALLED THE BANK AND TOLD THEM TO COME AND GET THE CAR. I CAN ONLY HOPE THAT THE PERSON WHO CONSIDERS PURCHASING MY CAR, AS I AM SURE ANOTHER UNSCRUPULOUS SALESMAN WILL PUT THE CAR UP FOR SALE, DOES HIS OR HER RESEARCH AND FINDS THE COMPLAINTS I HAVE FILED HERE AND WITH THE PA ATTORNEY GENERAL'S OFFICE. *TR

HVAC AND DEFROST DIRECTS COLD AIR ONTO WINDSHIELD WHILE SENDING 175 DEGREE FAHRENHEIT HOT AIR TO BOTTOM VENTS AIR IS NOT MIXING PROPERLY. JEEP DEALER WILL NOT MAKE REPAIR, SAYING "THIS IS HOW HVAC WORKS". DUE TO COLD AIR BLOWING FROM THE DEFROSTER ON WINDSHIELD, WINDSHIELD BUILDS UP WITH ICE AND SNOW, AND DOES NOT DEFROST PROPERLY. *TR

POWER TRAIN
I LEASE A 2007 JEEP COMMANDER. I NOTICED, TO START, THAT THE ENGINE WOULD NOT ACCELERATE AT A LOW SPEED. AT FIRST IT FELT LIKE MY FOOT WAS NOT QUITE ON THE ACCELERATOR SO I DISMISSED THE FIRST COUPLE OF INCIDENCES. MORE RECENTLY HOWEVER, MY VEHICLE WILL OCCASIONALLY STOP ACCELERATING AT ABOUT 15 MILES PER HOUR. WITH MY FOOT FULLY ON THE ACCELERATOR, THE VEHICLE WILL NOT GO ( THE ENGINE IS NOT STALLED ). IT DEFINITELY FEELS LIKE THE VEHICLE IS SHIFTING AUTOMATICALLY INTO NEUTRAL WHEN I TRY TO ACCELERATE. THE ENGINE LIGHT ON MY CONTROL PANEL ILLUMINATES. THE PROBLEM HAS BECOME WORSE. THE VEHICLE WILL STOP ACCELERATING AT HIGHER SPEEDS AND THE PARK, REVERSE, NEUTRAL, AND DRIVE SYMBOLS ALL ILLUMINATE ON MY CONTROL PANEL - SUGGESTING THAT I AM IN ALL THOSE POSITIONS. I TOOK MY COMMANDER IN TO THE DEALERSHIP TO BE CHECKED ON OCTOBER 6, 2008 AND THEY SAID ABSOLUTELY NOTHING WRONG. I DO NOT UNDERSTAND THIS BECAUSE MY VEHICLE IS BLATANTLY NOT WORKING PROPERLY - AN ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN IF I CANNOT MOVE MY VEHICLE AT AN APPROPRIATE SPEED TO CROSS INTERSECTIONS ETC.. I HAVE TO PUT MY HAZARDS ON AND PULL OVER WHEN THIS HAPPENS, NOW ON A DAILY BASIS. I WILL NOT DRIVE IT DISTANCES BECAUSE I AM AFRAID THAT IT COULD SHIFT OUT OF GEAR ON THE HIGHWAY WHICH WOULD BE DANGEROUS. I DID TAKE IT TO A LOCAL CAR STORE WHERE THEY DID A DIAGNOSTIC SCAN AND FOUND THE CODE U0404 THAT INVALID DATA WAS RECEIVED FROM THE GEAR SHIFTER. I DO NOT KNOW WHAT TO DO NOW THAT I HAVE A VEHICLE THAT CHRYSLER SAYS NOTHING IS WRONG WITH BUT DOES NOT WORK. I DO THINK THAT THIS IS CLEARLY A DANGEROUS PROBLEM TO HAVE. *TR

ADDITIONAL PROBLEMS REFERENCE ODI COMPLAINT #10244597. RECEIVED CAR BACK FROM DEALERSHIP RAN FINE FOR TWO WEEKS. THE CAR IS NOW STALLING ON THE HIGHWAY AT 40 MPH NEAR OUR HOME. THANK GOD I WAS ABLE TO GET THE CAR TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. THEN THE PARK ASSIST SERVICE LIGHT CAME ON AND WENT OFF AGAIN. I GOT THE CAR HOME. MY HUSBAND TOOK IT OUT. THE TRANSMISSION WAS SLIPPING AND NOT SHIFTING INTO HIGHER GEAR. TODAY TAKING THE KIDS TO THE BUS IT STALLED AGAIN. WHEN I WAS ABLE TO RESTART, I PUT MY FOOT ON THE GAS AND THE CAR HESITATE, ALMOST CAUSING AN ACCIDENT. I HAVE PRETTY MUCH DECIDED ON VOLUNTARY REPOSSESSION, AS MY KIDS ARE WORTH MORE THAN THE DEFICIENT BALANCE. *TR

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
MY TRUCK HAS BEEN EXPERIENCING "EXTREME IDLING" AFTER THE POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE (PCM) WAS RE-PROGRAMMED 2 MONTHS AGO. MY TRUCK REVS UP AND DOWN VERY FAST, SO MUCH, WHILE IN PARK, OR STOPPING AT A RED LIGHT, THAT IT IS CAUSING MY TRUCK TO BURN ALOT OF GAS FASTER. I STILL EXPERIENCE MY TRUCK STALLING WHILE MAKING TURNS, WHICH COMPLETELY TURNS OFF THE TRUCK'S POWER, WHICH CAUSES ME TO LOSE CONTROL STEERING. *TR

I HAVE A 2007 JEEP COMMANDER, AND I HAVE HAD IT IN TO THE DEALER ABOUT 3 OR 4 TIMES NOW OVER STALLING ISSUES. THE FIRST TIME THE DEALER THOUGHT IT WAS AN ISSUE WITH THE MAP SENSOR, WELL IT STALLED OUT THE LIKE 1-2 DAYS LATER. THEN THEY THOUGH IT NEEDED A TRANSMISSION SOFTWARE UPDATE. JUST THE OTHER DAY MY FAMILY AND I WERE COMING HOME FROM MY INLAWS AND IT STALLED AGAIN AND THIS TIME IN THE MIDDLE OF A BUSY INTER SECTION AND I WAS SO MAD. I FINALLY PUSHED THE TRUCK TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND COULD NOT START IT, IT TOOK ABOUT 1/2 OF AN HOUR TO START IT AND HOLDING DOWN THE GAS PEDDLE. WELL OFF TO THE DEALER AGAIN. I GOT A CALL THE MORNING OF 10/14/2008 AND THEY THINK ITS THE FUEL PUMP NOW, COME ON IT HAS ONLY 14K MILES ON IT AND WE BOUGHT IT BRAND NEW LAST NOVEMBER AND ALL OF THIS STARTED HAPPENING AT THE BEGGING OF SEPTEMBER.

STRUCTURE, ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING, VISIBILITY, STEERING
MY 2006 COMMANDER WITH 40,000 MILES HAS HAD THE FOLLOWING PROBLEMS SINCE IT CAME OFF THE LOT. THE VEHICLE STALLS AND I OBVIOUSLY LOSE POWER AND STEERING BUT THERE ARE NO ERROR MESSAGES IN THE COMPUTER, THE 4WD DOES NOT ENGAGE - THE WARNING LIGHT FOR THAT COMES ON BUT THERE'S NO ERROR MESSAGE IN THE COMPUTER. THE WINDOW'S ROLL UP AND DOWN INCORRECTLY - THE GASKET ON THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD HAS BEEN REPLACED AND THE KICKER OF ALL PROBLEMS IS WHEN THE VEHICLE GOES THROUGH A MINOR PUDDLE OF WATER OR THE AUTOMATIC CAR WASH THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKS COMPLETELY UNTIL THE WATER IS GONE - TRY DRIVING THAT IN THE RAIN - JEEP WAS FINALLY ABLE TO DUPLICATE THAT PROBLEM BY PUTTING A GARDEN HOSE UNDER THE CAR AND SQUIRTING WATER ON THE UNDERSIDE OF THE VEHICLE - THIS PROBLEM APPARENTLY CANNOT BE FIXED AND THEY CAN'T BELIEVE THAT NO OTHER JEEP OWNER'S AREN'T THROWING FITS. SO MUCH FOR THE LEMON LAW - THE STEERING PROBLEM WASN'T TAKEN SERIOUSLY BY THE PREVIOUS JEEP DEALERS -I WENT TO A DIFFERENT DEALER ALTOGETHER HOWEVER, IT'S TOO LATE. *TR

VISIBILITY:WINDSHIELD
I OWN A 2007 JEEP COMMANDER. A SMALL ROCK HIT MY WINDSHIELD AND THE GLASS BREAKAGE SPREAD QUICKLY ACROSS TO THE MIDDLE OF THE ENTIRE SHIELD. THIS SMALL ROCK WOULD ONLY HAVE MAYBE BEEN A TINY NICK ON ANY OTHER VEHICLE WINDSHIELD. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND IF YOU LOOK AT THE EDMUNDS FORUM FOR THIS PROBLEM, EVERYONE WITH A JEEP COMMANDER HAS THIS PROBLEM AND HAS BEEN UNABLE TO GET CHRYSLER TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. IT IS A DESIGN FLAW AND POOR QUALITY OF WINDSHIELD. SOME PEOPLE HAVE REPLACED AS MANY AS 4 WINDSHIELDS EACH YEAR OF THE COMMANDER OWNERSHIP. I HAD ONLY DRIVEN MY JEEP APPROXIMATELY 1000 MILES WHEN IT HAPPENED. THE REPLACEMENT IS $500.00 AND I KNOW THAT IT WILL CRACK AGAIN WHEN REPLACED. DUE TO THE DANGER IN THE GLASS, I WOULD LIKE YOUR HELP IN GETTING SOMETHING DONE ABOUT THIS PROBLEM. THANK YOU. JAN HARPER *TR
