ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 JEEP COMMANDER. WHILE THE CONTACT'S HUSBAND WAS DRIVING 65 MPH, THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO HESITATE. THE DRIVER WAS ABLE TO PARK ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD BEFORE THE VEHICLE SEIZED. THE CONTACT WAITED AN HOUR BEFORE RESTARTING THE VEHICLE AND DRIVING HOME. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC MULTIPLE TIMES, BUT THEY WERE UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE FAILURE THE FIRST TIME. THE SECOND TIME, THE DEALER DIAGNOSED THAT AN UNKNOWN SENSOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED, BUT CONTINUED TO EXPERIENCE THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT CALLED CHAMPION CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM (LOCATED AT 435 E PASS RD, GULFPORT, MS 39507, (228) 896-1515) AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE PART WOULD NOT BE AVAILABLE FOR ONE MONTH.

THE CAR STALLS WITHOUT WARNING WHEN YOU ARE DRIVING.I HAVE HAD IT CHECKED AT THE DEALERSHIP AND OTHER SHOPS SEVERAL TIMES AND THEY CANNOT FIND OUT WHAT IS WRONG WITH IT. IT DOES NOT MATTER IF YOU ARE ON THE STREET OR ON THE HIGHWAY (WHICH IS SCARY) AND IT IS TOTALLY RANDOM. ACCORDING TO THE WEBSITE I HAVE HAD ALL THE RECALLS DONE.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
WHEN TRYING TO CRANK THE CAR THE IGNITION IS VERY SLOW AND THE LIGHTS DIM. IT IS TRYING TO TURNOVER BUT CANNOT. AFTER A FEW ATTEMPTS IT STARTS SMELLING LIKE SOMETHING ELECTRICAL IS GOING ON. WE ATTEMPTED TO JUMP IT OFF BUT IT PERFORMS THE SAME EVEN WHEN ATTACHED TO JUMPER CABLES. SO IT IS NOT THE BATTERY WHICH WAS CHANGED 2 YEARS AGO AND THE STARTER WAS REPLACED 2 YEARS AGO AS WELL. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR A WHILE PERIODICALLY BUT IT ALWAYS EVENTUALLY STARTED AND NEVER SMELLED LIKE SOMETHING ELECTRICAL WAS BURNING. THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED IN A PARKING SPOT IN LEXINGTON FOR ONLY A FEW MINUTES TO RUN INTO THE RETRIEVE SOME DOCUMENTS AND WHEN RETURNING IT JUST WOULD NOT START. ONCE I GOT HOME I STARTED LOOKING UP COMMON ISSUES WITH ELECTRICAL AND NOTICED THAT THERE HAD BEEN SEVERAL RECALLS THAT MIGHT APPLY TO MY ISSUE. I PLAN TO CALL OUR LOCAL CHRYSLER DEALER AS SOON AS THEY OPEN AND SEE IF THEY CAN CONFIRM AND PICK IT UP FOR REPAIRS THAT SHOULD BE COVERED UNDER THE WARRANTY.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, EXTERIOR LIGHTING
THE COMMANDER HAS AN ELECTRICAL DEFECT THAT PREVENTS THE CAR FROM STARTING. WE HAVE TRACED IT BACK TO THE ALTERNATOR WIRE. IT'S THE DESIGN OF THE WIRING THAT'S CAUSING A DEFECT. WHEN I RESEARCH IT THIS IS A PROBLEM THAT MOST COMMANDER OWNER'S DEAL WITH. THERE'S NO WAY TO FIX THE PROBLEM. JEEP FIAT CHRYSLER HAVE NEVER ADDRESSED THIS PROBLEM. WE'VE REPLACED THE BATTERY AND ALTERNATOR TWICE NOW IN THE LAST 2 YEARS.

STRUCTURE:BODY
WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT I THOUGHT I COULD HEAR A SCRAPING NOISE. I PROMPTLY ROLLED DOWN MY WINDOW AND CONTINUED TO ACCELERATE SLOWLY. I DIDN'T HEAR THE NOISE SO PROCEEDED HOME. A FEW MILES LATER I PULLED INTO MY DRIVE AND A POLICE OFFICER PULLED UP TO TELL ME METAL WAS LOOSE UNDER MY VEHICLE AND SHOOTING SPARKS OUT OF THE REAR. THE NEXT MORNING I CHECKED AND A LARGE PIECE OF RUSTED METAL WAS HANGING BY A THREAD SO I REMOVED IT. I MADE AN APPOINTMENT TO HAVE THE VEHICLE INSPECTED AND WAS SHOWN THAT 2 OF THE 3 STRAPS HOLDING MY GAS TANK IN PLACE WERE COMPLETELY GONE AND THE THIRD IS BROKEN AND RUSTED THROUGH. MY VEHICLE IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE AND I HAD NO IDEA. I LOOKED TO SEE IF THIS WAS A RECALL ISSUE AND IT IS NOT. I SEARCHED TO SEE IF THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM AND FOUND THAT IT IS EXTREMELY COMMON ACROSS THE ENTIRE JEEP LINE. IF MY GAS TANK WERE TO SEPARATE OR BE PUNCTURED IT COULD NOT ONLY CAUSE AN EXPLOSION KILLING ME AND MY FAMILY BUT COULD KILL/SERIOUSLY INJURE ANYONE ON THE ROAD BEHIND ME. I HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO RECOURSE TO RESOLVE THIS ISSUE. I CAN'T AFFORD THE DEALERSHIP AMOUNT WHICH IS MORE THAN THE VEHICLE IS WORTH. HOW IS THIS NOT A RECALL ISSUE?

TAKATA RECALL ABOUT A MONTH AGO I WAS TRAVELING AT 70MPH ON THE INTERSTATE. WHEN EXITING THE INTERSTATE MY CAR JUST SHUT IT'S SELF OFF. NO WARNING LIGHTS, SOUNDS, ETC. WE TRIED FOR ABOUT 20 MINS TO GET IT TO START BACK AND STAY RUNNING ONCE RUNNING WE TOOK IT STRAIGHT TO A MECHANIC WHO PUT IT ON A MACHINE. NO PROBLEMS SHOWED UP ON THE MACHINE AT ALL AND IT'S BEEN FINE EVER SINCE UNTIL TODAY. THIS TIME MY HUSBAND WAS DRIVING AND THE EXACT SAME THING HAPPENED AGAIN.

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
