NHTSA Complaint #10220477 — 2006 JEEP COMMANDER

THERE IS A 4/07 NHTSA INVESTIGATION INTO 2006-7 JEEP COMMANDERS' INTERMITTENT AND PERSISTENT ENGINE STALLING PROBLEMS - SUPPOSEDLY IN RESPONSE TO 76 COMPLAINTS. NHTSA REALLY NEEDS TO READ ITS OWN COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM, WHICH CAN BE FOUND NOT ONLY IN THE COMMANDER LINE BUT ALSO IN 2005-2008 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEES. THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS ON THE INTERNET (JEEPFORUM.COM, USENET NEWS, ETC.) ABOUT JEEP VEHICLES STALLING, BESIDES THE COMMANDER. I FEAR THAT EVEN IF CHRYSLER IS FINALLY FORCED TO ADDRESS THE PROBLEM UNDER THIS INVESTIGATION, THEY WILL SIMPLY POINT TO THE "2006-7 COMMANDERS" PORTION OF THE SETTLEMENT AND COMPLETELY IGNORE THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM IN OTHER YEARS AND OTHER MODELS OF JEEP. THEY CANNOT BE ALLOWED TO CONTINUE WAVING OFF THEIR CUSTOMERS, WHO PAID FOR THEIR PRODUCTS IN GOOD FAITH, AND NOW ARE NOT BEING SUPPORTED. THEY NEED TO BE FORCED TO ACKNOWLEDGE AND RECTIFY THIS VERY WIDE SPREAD PROBLEM IMMEDIATELY, BEFORE THEIR NEGLIGENCE GETS SOMEONE KILLED. UNFORTUNATELY, WE LOWLY CONSUMERS HAVE LITTLE TO NO POWER OVER A GIANT LIKE CHRYSLER. THAT IS WHY WE NEED ORGANIZATIONS LIKE THE NHTSA TO HELP US. NHTSA, PLEASE REVIEW YOUR OTHER COMPLAINTS UNDER THE JEEP BRAND AND EXPAND YOUR INVESTIGATION AS APPROPRIATE. ANYONE ELSE WITH A JEEP THAT KEEPS STALLING, PLEASE CONTINUE TO POST YOUR COMPLAINTS HERE AND ANYWHERE ELSE YOU CAN FIND. THESE STALLING PROBLEMS NEED TO BE FIXED, AND CHRYSLER NEEDS TO TAKE OWNERSHIP OF THIS DANGEROUS ISSUE IMMEDIATELY. *TR
