The contact owns a 2007 Jeep Commander. The contact stated while driving 55-60 MPH, the engine revved, and the vehicle began to lose motive power. The contact veered to the side of the road. The contact stated that he shifted from drive (D) to park (P) and from park to neutral (N) and then drive (D) several times until the vehicle responded as needed. The contact stated that the failure recurred several times while driving. The vehicle was taken to two transmission specialists, where it was diagnosed that the transmission needed to be rebuilt. The vehicle was repaired; however, the failure recurred. The vehicle was taken back to the transmission specialist, where it was diagnosed that the transfer case was unintendedly shifting into neutral(N), and the failure was related to NHTSA Campaign Number: 13V175000 (Power Train, Electrical System). The vehicle was not repaired. The dealer and the manufacturer were not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 175,000.

OUR 2007 JEEP COMMANDER HAS HAD A RECURRING ISSUE FOR OVER A YEAR WHILE IN OPERATION WHETHER IN MOTION OR STATIONARY, VEHICLE WILL SHUT OFF RANDOMLY. WHEN YOU ATTEMPT TO RESTART THE VEHICLE, IT STARTS RIGHT BACK UP AGAIN. THE RANDOM VEHICLE SHUTDOWNS TAKE PLACE IN ALL DRIVING CONDITIONS AND REGARDLESS OF UPHILL OR DOWNHILL DRIVING. BROUGHT THE JEEP COMMANDER TO THE JEEP DEALERSHIP AND THEY REPLACED THE IGNITION SWITCH AS PART OF A RECALL. THIS DID NOT RESOLVE THE PROBLEM AT ALL AND THE DEALERSHIP WAS UNABLE TO FIGURE OUT CAUSES FOR RANDOM STALLING EVEN WHEN THE COMMANDER FAILED DURING TESTING WITH TECHNICIANS. I REPLACED VIRTUALLY EVERY SENSOR I COULD IMAGINE INCLUDING, THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR AND IDLE AIR CONTROL SENSOR, EGR, MAP SENSOR, AIR INTAKE SENSOR AND THE PCM. NO LUCK, WE HAVE THE SAME RANDOM STALLING AND THE PROCEDURE IS, RESTART THE VEHICLE IN NEUTRAL FOR RECOVERY WHILE IN MOTION. THE RESTART DOES NOT FAIL, BUT THE RANDOM STALLING CONTINUES SOMETIMES FIVE OR SIX TIMES ON A 100 MILE TRIP. THIS IS DANGEROUS AND CAN GET SOMEONE OR THEIR FAMILY KILLED.

LIKE COUNTLESS OTHER OWNERS OF THIS VEHICLE FORM YEARS 2006-2007, THE "TRANSMISSION OVER TEMPERATURE" LIGHT HAS BEEN GOING ON AND OFF FOR YEARS.

SOME PEOPLE HAVE EVEN NOTED THAT THEY WERE STRANDED FOR HOURS DUE TO THIS - IT'S OBVIOUSLY NOT JUST ONE PERSON'S EXPERIENCE WITH THE CAR, AND A QUICK GLANCE ONLINE WILL SHOW THE DEPTHS OF ISSUES PEOPLE ARE HAVING WITH THE TRANSMISSION AND THE LIGHT ON THIS VEHICLE.

RIGHT AFTER PURCHASING THIS CAR IN 10/2011 THE JEEP WOULD RANDOMLY CUT OFF OR LOSE POWER, NOT SURE IF THIS AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE. DUE TO THE RANDOMNESS OF THE ISSUE, THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM WHEN I BROUGHT IN THE CAR. AFTER GOING BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP THE MANGER AT THE TIME WROTE/PROMISED THAT HIS ESTABLISHMENT (RELIABLE AUTO) WOULD REPAIR/FIX THE ISSUE IF IT OCCURRED AGAIN (WITHIN A YEAR OR 12,000 MILES). AFTER A YEARS TIME THE ISSUE STILL CONTINUED, BUT NOW I CANNOT BRING IT IN TO BE FIXED W/OUT BEING CHARGED. WHENEVER I PUSHED DOWN ON THE PEDAL TO ACCELERATE , THE CAR COULD NOT ACCELERATE PAST 25- 30 MPH! THIS WOULD OCCUR WHILE I WAS ALREADY IN MOTION, OR AT A LIGHT. FELT LIKE THE CAR WAS, "STALLING" AND THE SERVICE PARK ASSIST MESSAGE WOULD APPEAR. I WOULD TRY TO SHIFT THE GEAR BUT NOTHING CHANGED, THE CAR STILL WOULD NOT ACCELERATE. THIS HAPPENED ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS. SOMETIMES THE NEXT DAY THE CAR WOULD DRIVE JUST FINE, OTHER TIMES THE PROBLEM, "FIXED ITSELF" WITHIN A FEW DAYS. EVERY TIME I TOOK THE CAR IN THEY HAD A DIFFICULT TIME DUPLICATING THE PROBLEM. MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WOULD ALSO ILLUMINATE BUT WHEN CHECKED NO CODES COULD BE FOUND. SUPER FRUSTRATING AND SCARY TO DEAL W/ THIS. IN JULY/AUG 2013 THE PROBLEM GOT WORSE WHEN I WAS INVOLVED IN AN AUTOMOBILE ACCIDENT. TOOK THE COMMANDER TO CHRYSLER/JEEP AND THEY WERE ABLE TO IDENTIFY AN ELECTRICAL/SHIFTMODULE PROBLEM. ONE OF THE REPS. AT JEEP TOLD ME THIS BEEN COMMON W/ JEEP COMMANDERS. BEFORE I HAD THE COMMANDER, I OWNED A 2005 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE, PURCHASED BRAND NEW IN 2005. GREAT CAR BUT HAD SOME ELECTRICAL ISSUES, WHEN ON, MY HEADLIGHTS WOULD RANDOMLY START FLASHING.

I HAVE A 2007 JEEP COMMANDER WITH A CHRONIC STALLING PROBLEM. WITHIN JUST A COUPLE MONTHS OF BUYING THIS USED VEHICLE, IT STALLED FOR THE FIRST TIME ON THE NEW YORK THRUWAY GOING 70 MPH. SINCE THEN, THE VEHICLE CHRONICALLY AND RANDOMLY WILL STALL. I HAVE HAD IT STALL AS MUCH AS 7 TIMES IN THE SPACE OF GOING 12 MILES! IT WILL STALL ON THE HIGHWAY AT 70 MPH; OR STOPPED AT A STOP SIGN; VIRTUALLY ANYWHERE ANYTIME! THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. RECENTLY, I HAD IT STALL ON THE HIGHWAY; I GOT IT RESTARTED AND DROVE TO MY EXIT. AT THE END OF THE EXIT RAMP WHEN THE LIGHT TURNED GREEN, I PROCEEDED TO ATTEMPT TO CROSS A BUSY INTERSECTION AND IT DIED AGAIN!!! I CAN'T TRUST THIS VEHICLE AND AM AFRAID TO DRIVE IT MUCH. WE HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE LOCAL JEEP DEALERSHIP MANY TIMES WITHOUT SUCCESSFULLY FIXING THE PROBLEM. MOST RECENTLY, WE LEFT THE COMMANDER AT THE DEALERSHIP FOR A WEEK AND THEY THOUGHT THEY HAD IT FIXED SO WE PICKED IT UP AND IN JUST OVER 1 DAY IT STALLED AGAIN. I WORK ONLY 6 MILES FROM HOME AND CAN'T MAKE IT HOME FROM WORK WITHOUT IT STALLING. WE HAVE PUT THOUSANDS ... AND THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS IN REPAIRS REPLACING SENSORS (INCLUDING MAP), EXHAUST PIPE WITH CATALYTIC CONVERTERS, IGNITION SYSTEM, ... AND THE LIST GOES ON. LOOKING ON THE INTERNET, THERE ARE MANY WEBSITES AND MANY COMPLAINTS BY OTHER 2007 JEEP COMMANDER OWNERS FOR MY SAME STALLING PROBLEM. THE 2006 JEEP COMMANDER HAS HAD RECALLS FOR STALLING ... AND THIS VEHICLE (2007 COMMANDER) SHOULD BE RECALLED AND FIXED. I CANNOT STRESS STRONGLY ENOUGH HOW HAZARDOUS THIS VEHICLE IS. WOULD YOU PLACE YOUR LIFE ... YOUR LOVED ONES LIVES ... IN A VEHICLE THAT CHRONICALLY STALLS ANYTIME AND ANYWHERE WITHOUT WARNING?? THINK ABOUT IT! I AM JUST LOOKING FOR JEEP TO FIX THE PROBLEM THEIR DESIGN HAS CAUSED IN THIS VEHICLE. *TR

READING MULTIPLE THREADS ON THE INTERNET THIS IS A BIGGER PROBLEM THAN JEEP IS OWNING UP TO AND THE REPAIR PART IS ONLY AT BEST A TEMPORARY FIX. THIS SHOULD BE ADDRESSED AT A HIGHER LEVEL,I WILL NOT BUY ANOTHER JEEP PRODUCT. *TR

WITHIN A COUPLE OF HOURS THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I BROUGHT THE VEHICLE TO A REPAIR SHOP, WERE THEY SCANNED THE CODE AND TOLD ME IT WASN'T A "REAL CODE" PROBABLY A COMPUTER MALFUNCTION AND IT SHOULD TURN OFF ON ITS OWN, WHICH IT DID, A DAY LATER. THIS HAS HAPPENED AT LEAST 8 DIFFERENT TIMES THROUGHOUT THE 5 MONTHS OF OWNING THIS VEHICLE. FINALLY I LOOKED ONLINEFOR RECALLS, THERE IS A POWER-TRAIN AND ELECTRICAL RECALL FOR THE TIME MY JEEP WAS MANUFACTURED, EXPLAINING ALL THE SAME TROUBLES I'VE BEEN HAVING, HOWEVER WHEN I CALLED CHRYSLER CUSTOMER SERVICE, I WAS ADVISED I HAD A SIDE AIRBAG RECALL BUT NOTHING ON POWER-TRAIN.WHEN I TOLD THE REPRESENTATIVE THAT THE WARRANTY WAS FOR MY VEHICLE IN THE TIME IT WAS MANUFACTURED SHE TOLD ME IT WASN'T IN THE SYSTEM AND THAT IF I WANTED IT FIXED I WOULD HAVE TO GO TO THE DEALERSHIP PAY FOR IT AND KEEP MY RECEIPT AND WHEN CHRYSLER CAME OUT WITH A RECALL FOR MY JEEP I COULD COME FORWARD. MEANWHILE, I'M DRIVING AROUND IN A DOCUMENTED UNSAFE VEHICLE WITH MY 18 MONTH OLD IN THE BACK AND I HAVE TO EITHER WAIT FOR THIS CAR TO CAUSE AN ACCIDENT OR ENOUGH PEOPLE COMPLAIN AND THEY ISSUE ANOTHER RECALL.

THE COMMANDER WAS SLUGGISH ON A TRIP TO FLORIDA, WHEN I WOULD PRESS THE ACCELERATOR, IT WOULD HESITATE AND SPUTTER. THE MONTH BEFORE THIS TRIP, I JUST HAD THE TRANSMISSION SERVICED AT 60K TO KEEP THE POWER TRAIN WARRANTY INTACT. SO FIGURED SOMETHING WAS DONE INCORRECTLY AT THE DEALERSHIP AND WE WOULD DEAL WITH IT WHEN WE RETURNED HOME. I WISH WE WOULD HAVE FOUND A REPAIR SHOP IN FL TO LOOK INTO IT AS THE JEEP TURNED OFF ON US GOING 74 MPH ON I-95. WE ALMOST GOT REAR ENDED BY A SEMI. WE DROVE 65 THE REST OF THE WAY HOME AND IT WAS ONE OF THE SCARIEST MOMENTS OF MY LIFE. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY READ THE CODE AND CLEARED THE CODE LIKE THEY DID PREVIOUSLY WHEN IT WOULD DO A HARD DOWNSHIFT WITH A LOVELY CLUNK WHEN COMING TO A STOP. THIS FIXED THE ISSUE UNTIL WE WERE COMING BACK FROM A FOUR HOUR TRIP AND THE LURCHING FORWARD WHEN GOING UP AN INCLINE STARTED AGAIN. IT CUT OFF, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND STAYED LIT, AS WELL AS THE PARK ASSIST. LIKE BEFORE WE COASTED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, TURNED IT OFF AND RESTARTED IT. TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD IT WAS THE FUEL SENSOR AND SHELLED OUT $750 TO GET IT FIXED. I AM SCARED TO DRIVE THIS SUV AND HAVE NEVER HAD THIS ISSUE HAPPEN TO ANY OF THE 20 CARS WE HAVE PREVIOUSLY OWNED. PLEASE LOOK INTO WHY THIS IS OCCURRING BECAUSE IF SOMEONE DIES DUE TO BEING REAR ENDED WHEN IT CUTS OFF, A LAWSUIT WILL BE IMMINENT. THANK YOU *TR

I HAVE HAD MY 07 JEEP COMMANDER (3.6 V6) SINCE JANUARY 2008. I HAVE NOTICE NUMEROUS TIMES WHILE DRIVING FROM A COMPLETE STOP, THAT MY VEHICLE WILL LOSE POWER AND START TO SPUTTER WHEN I TRY TO APPLY THE GAS AND THE CAR MOVES VERY SLOW AS IN LESS THAN 20MPH. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME NUMEROUS TIMES AND MAKES ME VERY UNCOMFORTABLE DRIVING KNOWING THAT MY CAR CAN STOP AND LEAVE ME VULNERABLE TO BEING REAR-ENDED AT INTERSECTIONS OR COMMON STOPS. I NOTICE WHEN THIS HAPPENS THAT MY VEHICLE CLUSTER DISPLAYS "SERVICE PARK ASSIST" AND THE SERVICE PARK ASSIST LIGHT COMES ON UNCONTROLLABLY AND AT THE SAME TIME MY DASH/ CLUSTER ALSO DISPLAYS ( [P][R][N][D] ) ALL AT ONCE AS IF THE VEHICLE DOES NOT KNOW WHAT GEAR IT IS IN. THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE FOR A VEHICLE THAT IS SUPPOSED TO PROVIDE A SAFE DRIVING EXPERIENCE. I ALSO FIND IT VERY DISAPPOINTING THAT NUMEROUS PEOPLE ALL OVER THE UNITED STATES AND INTERNET/ FORUMS ALL HAVE THIS PROBLEM AND CHRYSLER TRIES TO NARROW IT DOWN TO A SELECT YEAR. MODEL. AND ENGINE. MY VEHICLE HAS THE SAME ISSUES AS THE PREVIOUS RECALL FOR THE 2007 4.7 V8 ENGINES, YET CHRYSLER IGNORES THE COMMUNITY OF JEEP COMMANDER OWNERS WITH THE 3.6 V6 ENGINE THAT HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. THERE IS ALSO A TSB (18-004-09 REV. A) THAT DESCRIBES THE CLUNKING AND HESITATION YOU FEEL WHEN TRYING TO GET UP TO SPEED. THIS IS NOT SOMETHING A CUSTOMER SHOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR. MY VEHICLE IS A 2007 WITH LESS THAN 40,000 MILES ON IT AND I SHOULD BE ABLE TO ENJOY MY VEHICLE SAFELY DURING THIS TIME PERIOD. ANOTHER PROBLEM IS THAT THE VEHICLE DOES THIS AT RANDOM SO YOU CAN'T JUST TAKE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND SHOW THEM THE PROBLEM. I'M SURE THEY WOULD GLADLY TAKE MY MONEY AND LET ME SPEND 1000+ DOLLARS FOR NEW PARTS, BUT I HAVE AN 8YR/80,000 MILE WARRANTY PURCHASED FROM CHRYSLER AND WILL NOT PAY FOR DIAGNOSTIC AFTER DIAGNOSTIC TO TRY AND REPLICATE A PROBLEM THAT IS CLEARLY THERE... *TR

I PURCHASED MY USED JEEP COMMANDER AND SHORTLY AFTER IT STALLED ON ME WHILE I WAS DRIVING. I TOOK TURNED THE KEY AND GOT IT TO TURN ON AGAIN, LUCKILY THERE WERE NO CARS BEHIND ME. ANOTHER TIME I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND THE SAME THING HAPPENED, AGAIN I WAS LUCKY THE TRAFFIC WAS BACKED UP AND NOT MOVING TOO FAST. BEFORE MY WARRANTY RAN OUT I TOOK IT IN AND THE DEALERSHIP SAID THERE WAS NOTHING COMING UP ON THEIR TESTS THAT WAS OF CONCERN. THE NEXT MONTH MY WARRANTY EXPIRED AND I WAS STRANDED AT A STORE. MY JEEP WOULD NOT TURN ON CLAIMING "TRANSMISSION OVER TEMP." IT WAS NOT THE BATTERY. I LEFT IT OVER NIGHT AND WENT BACK THE NEXT DAY AND IT STARTED RIGHT UP. THE DEALERSHIP COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH MY JEEP AND SUGGESTED A TRANSMISSION COMPUTER UPDATE. ABOUT A MONTH LATER I WAS BACK AT THE SHOP WITH THE "TRANSMISSION OVER TEMP" ISSUE, BUT THE JEEP BEHAVED AT THE DEALERSHIP. I PICKED IT UP AND ABOUT 2 MONTHS LATER I WAS BACK AT THE SHOP, HAVING TO TOW IN MY CAR. THE CAR AGAIN TURNED ON, SO THE DEALERSHIP REPLACED THE STARTER RELAY ON A GUESS (I WAS NOT CHARGED). AGAIN 2 MONTHS LATER MY CAR IS BACK IN THE SHOP FOR NOT TURNING ON, AGAIN SAYING THAT THERE IS A "TRANSMISSION OVER TEMP" ISSUE. ALSO WHILE I AM SITTING AT A RED LIGHT, I FIND MY JEEP SHAKING LIKE CRAZY. IT SEEMS LIKE IT WANTS TO TURN OFF, BUT IT DOESN'T (OR MAYBE THE LIGHT CHANGES JUST IN TIME). I HAVE DONE REGULAR MAINTENANCE ON MY JEEP. THE DEALERSHIP HAS RUN THEIR DIAGNOSTIC TESTS ON THE JEEP AND ABSOLUTELY NOTHING HAS COME UP. ALL IN ALL, I DRIVE IN FEAR THAT MY CAR WILL STALL AGAIN ON THE HIGHWAY, PUTTING BOTH MY SON'S AND MY LIFE IN DANGER, OR THAT WE WILL BE STRANDED IN THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE. *TR

AS OF JUNE 8TH 2011 I BOUGHT MY JEEP USED WITH APPROXIMATELY 42000 MILES ON IT SOON AFTER IT STARTED HAVING FILLING ISSUES THEN FOR A WHILE THE ISSUE CEASED NOW ABOUT A MONTH BEFORE DATE OF STALL LISTED ABOVE IT STARTED WITH THE SAME FILLING ISSUES EXCEPT WORSE NOW CAUSING IT TO NOT WANT TO SHIFT INTO GEARS AS NORMAL CAR WOULD, KINDA JERKING IN BETWEEN SHIFTS FROM DIFFERENT SPEEDS AND RPM INCREASE AND DECREASE. IT HAS STALLED ON ME TWICE NOW. THE FIRST TIME ON THE INTERSTATE AT 70 MPH WITH MY 3 KIDS AND PREGNANT WIFE IN THE CAR CAUSING ALL POWER FUNCTIONS TO BE LOST AND WE ALMOST GOT RAN OVER BY A TRANSFER TRUCK TRYING TO GET TO THE SHOULDER OF THE ROAD. I HAD IT LOOK AT AND THE THROTTLE BODY AND INTAKE CLEANED OF CARBON DEPOSITED AND NOW TODAY JUNE 12TH 2012 IT STALLED AGAIN GETTING OFF THE INTERSTATE HEADING TO MY WORK. STILL FILLING HIGH AND LOW AND STALLING AND JERKING BETWEEN THE NATURAL SHIFTING OF THE TRANSMISSION. *TR

BACK IN 2009 THE ESM HAD TO BE CHANGED TWICE AND IT WAS JUST CHANGED AGAIN 3/19/2012 AND HERE IT IS 5/25/2012 AND THIS PART GOES AGAIN (ELECTRIC SHIFT MODULE/UNIT). IT GOES WHILE MY WIFE WAS DRIVING ABOUT 45/50MPH ON THE HIGHWAY THE TRUCK JUST STOPPED RUNNING WHEN THE LIGHTS ON THE DASHBOARD FLASHED AND WENT OFF(GOOD THING THAT THE ROAD WAS PRETTY CLEAR AT THAT TIME) THIS IS A WELL KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THESE TRUCKS AND JEEP KNOWS ABOUT IT AND REFUSES TO CALL THESES TRUCKS OFF THE ROAD-THERE NEEDS TO BE TOTAL RECALL OF THE JEEP COMMANDEERS AND CHRYSLER/JEEP NEEDS TO BE MADE TO PURCHASE THEM FROM CONSUMERS BUT THEN AGAIN CONSUMERS DON'T HAVE ANY RIGHTS OR SAFETY NETS. *TR

AS I WAS DRIVING MY COMMANDER, IT STARTED TO SPUTTER AND SHIFT GEARS ERRATICALLY AND THEN DIED. THE ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON AS I PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. AFTER I TURNED THE CAR OFF COMPLETELY, I TRIED TO RESTART THE CAR TO CONTINUE TO WORK. AS SOON AS I PUT THE VEHICLE IN GEAR, IT STALLED ONCE AGAIN. ON THE THIRD TRY, I WAS ABLE TO PLACE MY VEHICLE IN GEAR AND COMPLETE MY DRIVE TO WORK BUT THE ENGINE LIGHT REMAINED ON. THIS SAME SCENARIO HAS HAPPENED FIVE TIMES SINCE THE ORIGINAL INCIDENT. *JS

WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH ON THE INTERSTATE, VEHICLE LOST POWER. DASH DISPLAY MESSAGE APPEARED "SERVICE PARK ASSIST SYSTEM" AND VEHICLE GEAR DISPLAY INDICATED THE P R N D WERE ALL ILLUMINATED. THE ENGINE STAYED RUNNING BUT WOULD NOT RESPOND TO THE GAS PEDAL, DECELERATING. TURNED ON HAZARD LIGHTS AND PULLED OVER, PLACED VEHICLE IN PARK, SHIFTED TO DRIVE, AND CONTINUED AS NORMAL. A SHORT TIME LATER, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. THE PROBLEM IS INTERMITTENT, AND HAS HAPPENED MANY TIMES SINCE THEN AND IN MANY DIFFERENT DRIVING SITUATIONS. FOR EXAMPLE, AFTER PULLING INTO TRAFFIC ON A HIGHWAY, THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT ACCELERATE, CAUSING THE TRAFFIC BEHIND TO NEARLY SLAM INTO US. IF ACCELERATION HAD BEEN AVAILABLE AS NORMAL, THIS WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN AN ISSUE. ANOTHER EXAMPLE, THE PROBLEM HAPPENED DURING HEAVY RUSH HOUR INTERSTATE TRAFFIC, CAUSING THE NEED TO CROSS SEVERAL LANES TO REACH A BREAKDOWN LANE. IT HAS HAPPENED IMMEDIATELY UPON STARTING THE VEHICLE AND AFTER THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN RUNNING NORMALLY FOR A LONG TIME. IT IS VERY UNPREDICTABLE. THE VEHICLE IS DANGEROUS AND CANNOT BE TRUSTED TO PROVIDE POWER OR ACCELERATION WHEN IT IS NEEDED. PRIVATE SHOP CHECKED THE FAULT CODES AND REPLACED THE TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE WHICH DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. INTERNET RESEARCH SHOWS THIS EXACT PROBLEM WITH THESE EXACT SYMPTOMS IS COMMON AND WIDESPREAD IN THE 2007 JEEP COMMANDER AND APPEARS TO INDICATE A FAULTY ELECTRONIC SHIFTER MODULE. CHRYSLER RESPONSE TO THE PROBLEM IS HIT AND MISS, SOME DEALERS ACKNOWLEDGING THEY HAVE SEEN THIS BEFORE, OTHERS CLAIMING THEY HAVE NEVER SEEN IT AND THE PROBLEM IS ISOLATED AND NOT WIDESPREAD. THERE NEEDS TO BE A SAFETY RECALL ON THIS DANGEROUS ISSUE BEFORE SOMEONE IS HURT OR KILLED, IF THEY HAVE NOT ALREADY. WE USED THIS VEHICLE TO TRANSPORT OUR CHILDREN AND NOW WE CAN'T EVEN TRUST IT TO SAFELY GET US TO THE SHOP TO HAVE IT REPAIRED. *TR

THE "PRND" GEARS LIT UP WITH BOXES AROUND THEM - THE "SERVICE PARKING ASSIST BRAKE" CAME ON AS WELL.... I COULD NOT ACCELERATE AT ALL AFTER THE LIGHT TURNED GREEN - HAD TO TURN ON HAZARD LIGHTS AND TURN VEHICLE OFF AND BACK ON - WORKED FINE FOR 10 MINUTES OR SO AND THEN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, IT HAS BEEN ON EVER SINCE. CALLED THE DEALERSHIP ABOUT THIS THEY ASKED ME TO BRING IT IN FOR DIAGNOSING, BUT HESITANT BECAUSE OF ALL THE SAME KIND OF STORIES THAT I HAVE READ ON THIS ISSUE. GOING TO HAVE TO GIVE IN THOUGH, THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN OF MINE NOW... HAVE NOT SEEN A RECALL FOR THIS EVEN THOUGH SOMEONE CAN CERTAINLY HAVE A DEVASTATING ACCIDENT, NOT WILLING TO TAKE THAT CHANCE... LOVE MY VEHICLE, BUT NOW I HATE THE AGGRAVATION THAT THIS IS CAUSING..

OVER THE PAST FEW WEEKS WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE WILL FLASH A WARNING SAYING SERVICE PARK ASSIST SYSTEM. WHEN THIS HAPPENS THE GEAR DISPLAY ON THE DASH PRND WILL ALL 4 GET CIRCLED AND FLASH AND THEN AS YOU ARE ACCELERATING YOU CAN FEEL THE VEHICLE LOSE SPEED. YOU CAN NO LONGER ACCELERATE THE VEHICLE AND HAVE TO COAST OFF THE ROAD. ONCE YOU STOP AND SHIFT TO PARK THEN BACK TO DRIVE IT WILL RESET AND THEN ALLOW YOU TO ACCELERATE. I WAS GOING 65 ON THE FREEWAY WHEN THIS HAPPENED LAST AND THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE. FOR ABOUT THE PAST 30,000-40,000 K MILES WE HAVE HAD ISSUES WITH IT SHIFTING PROPERLY AND EVERY TIME WE TOOK IT TO THE DEALER THEY CAN NEVER RE CREATE THE ISSUE. NOW WE ARE RECEIVING THIS WARNING AND IT ACTUALLY STOPS ACCELERATING ON ITS OWN. IT IS HAPPENING MORE AND MORE. WE TOOK IT TO THE DEALER SINCE THIS WARNING NOW CAME ON AND THEY SAID THEY HAVE NEVER HEARD OF IT, THEY COULDN'T RE CREATE IT, THAT IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE SHIFTING AND TO TURN OFF OUR PARK ASSIST SYSTEM SO IT DOESN'T HAPPEN. WE ARE ATTEMPTING A DIFFERENT DEALER TODAY BUT FIRST THING THEY SAID IS THEY NEVER HEAR OF THIS EITHER. SO COMFORTING! *KB

MY 2007 JEEP COMMANDER REFUSES TO ACCELERATE AFTER THE SERVICE PARK ASSIST LIGHT COMES ON AND ALL GEAR OPTIONS HIGHLIGHT AT THE SAME TIME. THIS WILL HAPPEN WITHOUT WARNING WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND OR HIGHWAY. THE ONLY WAY TO GET THE VEHICLE TO BEGIN TO ACCELERATE AGAIN IS TO PUT THE VEHICLE IN NEUTRAL AND APPLY THE ACCELERATOR. IT WILL ALSO BEGIN TO ACCELERATE WHILE AT A STOP ON ITS OWN. I HAVE READ MANY COMPLAINTS OF THIS EXACT AND SIMILAR PROBLEMS FROM OTHER JEEP COMMANDER OWNERS. I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR A RECALL FOR THIS ISSUE SINCE OTHER JEEP COMMANDER OWNERS HAS BEEN CHARGED FOR REPLACING TRANSMISSION MODULES JUST TO HAVE THIS HAPPEN AGAIN.

MY BOYFRIEND AND I WERE DRIVING HOME FROM DINNER AND ABOUT HALF WAY HOME THE CAR SUDDENLY STOPPED ACCELERATING AND THE SPEED DROPPED FROM 70 MPH TO 40 AND KEPT SLOWING DOWN. WE HAD TO PULL OVER AND TURN THE CAR OFF AND THEN BACK ON. THE CAR HAS DONE THIS SEVERAL TIMES SINCE AND A LIGHT COMES ON THAT SAYS "SERVICE PARK ASSIST". I HAVE READ UP ON THIS YEAR, MAKE AND MODEL AND HAVE FOUND THAT THIS IS A VERY COMMON ISSUE THAT HAS NOT BEEN DEALT WITH! THIS IS ALSO A VERY DANGEROUS ISSUE. I ALSO FOUND THAT IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE "PARK ASSIST" BUT RATHER THE TRANSMISSION IN THE TRUCK AND THAT MANY HAVE FAILED WELL BEFORE 50,000 MILES BUT SHORTLY AFTER JEEP'S 35,000 MILE WARRANTY. JEEP DID NOT COVER MY CAR BECAUSE I BOUGHT IT USED WHICH TERMINATED THE WARRANTY BECAUSE I WAS NOT THE ORIGINAL OWNER. I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED - THIS IS MY FIRST JEEP - AND I HAVE WANTED A JEEP FOR YEARS. THE CAR STILL DECELERATES AT TIMES - I CAN BE IN TRAFFIC OR PULLING OFF FROM A STOP OR TURNING A CORNER AND ALL OF A SUDDEN IT IS NOT SHIFTING OR ACCELERATING. I CAN'T AFFORD A NEW CAR RIGHT NOW BUT AM CONCERNED ABOUT MY FAMILY'S SAFETY. PLEASE READ UP ON THE MANY ARTICLES AND COMMENTS FROM PEOPLE ABOUT THIS PROBLEM AND SAVE LIVES!!!

WHEN THE CRUISE CONTROL IS ENGAGED AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS AND THE VEHICLE IS TRAVELING DOWN A HILL THE CRUISE CONTROL WILL PROPERLY DOWNSHIFT TO SLOW THE VEHICLE AND KEEP IT AT THE SET SPEED. IF THE VEHICLE IS THEN SHIFTED INTO NEUTRAL, THE CRUISE CONTROL WILL DISENGAGE PROPERLY AND THE TRANSMISSION WILL GO INTO THE NEUTRAL GEAR, BUT WHEN SHIFTED BACK INTO DRIVE THE TRANSMISSION WILL RE-ENGAGE AND WILL SLOW THE VEHICLE EXTREMELY ABRUPTLY AS IF SOMEONE SLAMMED ON THE BRAKES WITH FULL FORCE AND WILL NEARLY LOCK-UP THE REAR WHEELS ON DRY PAVEMENT. THIS WILL OCCUR EVEN IF THE CRUISE CONTROL IS TURNED OFF BEFORE SHIFTING BACK INTO DRIVE. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME TWICE BECAUSE OF THE PLACEMENT OF THE SHIFTER, AND IT WAS TERRIFYING BECAUSE OF THE SPEED I WAS TRAVELING AND THE ABRUPTNESS WITH WHICH THE VEHICLE SLOWED. IF ANYONE WOULD HAVE BEEN BEHIND ME I WOULD HAVE BEEN HIT AND THERE IS NOTHING THAT CAN BE DONE TO MAKE THE TRANSMISSION NOT DO THAT ONCE THE TRANSMISSION HAS BEEN SHIFTED INTO NEUTRAL.

FIRSTLY, THE EVENT THAT BROUGHT THIS LETTER ABOUT TOOK PLACE ON 03/28/2008 AT 7:30 PM. THE JEEP COMMANDER I OWN SMASHED INTO MY HOUSE. WE BEGAN BBQ-ING ABOUT 6:00 PM. WHILE THE FOOD WAS COOKING WE SAT IN MY JEEP WITH THE DOORS OPEN AND ENGINE OFF. (THE PORCH WAS WET) AFTER THE FOOD WAS DONE, I TOOK IT INSIDE AND MY 6 YEAR OLD SON DYLAN STAYED OUTSIDE TO PLAY FOR A FEW MORE MINUTES. DYLAN WAS IN THE FRONT SEAT PRETENDING TO DRIVE. THE KEYS TO THE VEHICLE WERE INSIDE THE HOUSE AND WE LIVE ON A SECLUDED PIECE OF LAND IN THE COUNTRY, SO I SAW NO HARM IN THIS. HOWEVER, A FEW MINUTES LATER WHEN I HEARD A CRASH AND FELT MY HOUSE MOVE, I HAD SECOND THOUGHTS! AT FIRST I DIDN'T ACTUALLY REALIZE WHAT HAD HAPPENED; I WAS SEARCHING THE HOUSE FOR WHAT COULD HAVE CAUSED SUCH A RACKET. THEN MY SON CAME IN THE HOUSE HYSTERICALLY CRYING. ALL HE COULD MANAGE WAS, 'THE CAR, THE CAR'. AT FIRST I THOUGHT HE MEANT A TOY CAR AND THEN AS I RUSHED OUTSIDE TO FIND THE CAUSE OF HIS HYSTERIA I DISCOVERED MY JEEP HAD CRASHED INTO MY HOUSE. AS I WAS STUNNED AND STARING AT THE UNBELIEVABLE SITE BEFORE ME, MY SON WAS STILL PANIC-STRICKEN AND SOBBING. I THOUGHT AT FIRST THAT HE HAD TAKEN MY KEYS AND STARTED THE CAR, BUT THE CAR WASN'T RUNNING AND I FOUND MY KEYS NEATLY ON THEIR HOOK, AS ALWAYS. DYLAN COULDN'T MAKE ANY FUNCTIONAL SENTENCES TO EXPLAIN WHAT HAPPENED SO I BEGAN TO INVESTIGATE. I FOUND THE GEARSHIFT IN REVERSE, BUT THERE WERE NO KEYS IN THE CAR. SINCE I HAD RETRIEVED MY KEYS, I BACKED THE CAR UP TO ITS USUAL POSITION TO CHECK OUT THE DAMAGE. I CONTINUED MY INVESTIGATION AND FOUND THAT EVEN WITH NO KEY IN THE IGNITION AND NO FOOT ON THE BRAKE, THE GEARSHIFT WOULD EASILY SHIFT FROM PARK TO ANY OTHER GEAR. SO DUE TO THIS MALFUNCTION, DYLAN'S INNOCENT PRETEND 'DRIVING' BECAME REAL AND RESULTED IN A REAL ACCIDENT THAT COULD HAVE SERIOUSLY INJURED HIM OR ONE OF MY OTHER CHILDREN AND DID REAL DAMAGE THE VEHICLE AS WELL AS MY HOUSE. *TR

ON TWO SEPARATE OCCASIONS (FIRST TIME WAS SHORTLY AFTER I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE AND THE SECOND WAS WITHIN THE LAST WEEK OR TWO), MY JEEP COMMANDER HAS STALLED WHILE COMING TO A STOP WITH LIGHT BRAKING (ENGINE SHUTS OFF WHILE VEHICLE IS MOVING). I HAVE ALSO NOTICED THAT FROM TIME TO TIME WHILE SITTING AT A STOPLIGHT (IN DRIVE WITH BRAKES APPLIED) THE ENGINE SEEMS TO HESITATE AND ALMOST SHUTS OFF. ALSO, AT VARIOUS TIMES, THERE HAS BEEN NOTICEABLE HESITATION WHEN ATTEMPTING TO ACCELERATE FROM A STANDSTILL OR ROLLING STOP (5-10MPH). PROBLEMS SEEM TO BE RELATED. I USE ONLY "NAME BRAND" 89 OCTANE FUEL (MFG. RECOMMENDATION). *TR
