Consumer Description

ON THREE OCCASIONS, MY 2006 JEEP COMMANDER HAS STALLED WHILE DRIVING, EACH TIME WHILE TURNING LEFT. ON ONE OCCASION, I LOST COMPLETE CONTROL OF STEERING, BRAKING AND ACCELERATING; THANKFULLY I WAS ABLE TO AVOID THE OTHER VEHICLES IN MY VICINITY. THE OTHER TWO TIMES I WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE WHILE DRIVING., BUT WAS ALMOST REAR-ENDED BOTH TIMES DUE TO DRASTIC DECELERATION. I WILL BE TAKING MY CAR IN FOR SERVICE; HOWEVER I?M NOT CONFIDENT THAT THEY'LL FIND ANYTHING. FROM WHAT I'VE READ, IT IS A COMMON PROBLEM THAT IS DIFFICULT TO REPLICATE. I HAVE 3 YOUNG CHILDREN AND NOW FEAR FOR OUR LIVES EACH DAY. I HOPE THAT JEEP WILL RECOGNIZE THIS GROWING PROBLEM AND RECALL THE VEHICLE BEFORE SOMEBODY GETS KILLED. IF I HAD THE MEANS TO BUY A NEW CAR, I WOULD IN A SECOND. I NO LONGER FEEL SAFE IN THIS CAR. *TR
