NHTSA Complaint #10156266 — 2006 JEEP COMMANDER

WELL ... ?YOU'RE NEVER GOING TO BELIEVE TO THIS? ABOUT 20 MINUTES AGO I WAS DRIVING SHERI AND MYSELF BACK HOME FROM AN APPOINTMENT AND WENT TO PULL OUT OF A TEE JUNCTION-, ROSSWAY ROAD AND THE ROAD WAS WET, I DABBED THE THROTTLE AND PULLED OUT GENTLY, UNFORTUNATELY A CADILLAC CAME OVER THE BROW OF THE HILL TRAVELING FAST AND STAMPED ON THE GAS TO ACCELERATE OUT OF THE WAY- NOPE HE REFUSED TO MOVE, I HAD MY FOOT ON THE GAS, FLAT TO THE FLOOR- ZERO JUST MIN POWER, AFTER WHAT SEEMED LIKE 1 SECONDS IT PICKED UP- FULL THROTTLE ? WENT SIDEWAYS SPINNING THE TIRES AND WAS AT THAT POINT ON THE SHOULDER- IT THEN LEFT OFF UP THE ROAD LIKE A DRAG CAR- 5000+RPM. NOW THE SCARY BIT, SUCH A MANEUVER SHOULD HAVE TURNED THE ESP LIGHT ON AT LEAST, NOTHING, I'VE GOT TO TELL YOU AT THIS POINT I AM DONE WITH THIS THING. I JUST CALLED CHRIS XXX AT THE DEALERSHIP AND HE SAYS THAT HE CAN?T DO ANYTHING FOR ME EXCEPT CALL DCC AND A LAWYER- HE NEEDS TO HEAR FROM THEM WHAT TO DO. BUT HE SAYS AS THERE ARE NO ERROR CODES STORED HE WILL HAVE NO DATA TO WORK WITH ANYWAY. I?M ON HOLD WITH DCC NOW AND I?M ON HOLD WAITING TO TALK TO THE NEXT DEPT? CHIEF , THEY WILL DO NOTHING FOR ME I?M SURE. I'VE COPIED MR. MARTIN LEE, WHO IS MY ATTORNEY ON THIS MESSAGE AND I'M GOING TO WAIT TO SEE WHAT HE SAYS? PLEASE ADD THIS TO MY FILE, THANKS- ANOTHER EMERGENCY HAS BEEN NARROWLY AVOIDED... WHILE DRIVING 54 MPH WITH THE CRUISE CONTROL ON THE VEHICLE'S HEADLIGHT WENT OUT AND THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE CONSUMER TURN THE KEY TO THE OFF POSITION THEN BACK TO ON AND THE VEHICLE STARTED RIGHT UP. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER BUT THE FOUND NOTHING WRONG. UPDATED 05/02/06. *JB
