Consumer Description

I HAVE A 2006 JEEP COMMANDER LIMITED V8 5.7L HEMI. IT IS A LOW MILEAGE VEHICLE, ALWAYS GARAGED AND NEVER BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT. ABOUT 6 MONTHS AGO IT BEGAN STALLING WHEN GOING FROM REVERSE TO DRIVE. THE ELECTRICAL DID NOT GO OFF, THE ENGINE SIMPLY STALLED. THIS HAPPENED COUNTLESS TIMES EASILY 20+ OCCURRENCES. WE TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT, THEY TOLD US TO USE HIGHER OCTANE FUEL AND THEY UPDATED THE SOFTWARE IN THE CAR... A WEEK LATER MY WIFE WAS AT WORK AND IT WOULD NOT EVEN TURN OVER EVEN THOUGH ALL OF THE ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS WORKED FINE. WE HAD IT TOWED AND THEY REPLACED THE BATTERY AND TOLD US THAT WAS THE PROBLEM. YESTERDAY I WAS DRIVING THE TRUCK, IT WAS IN DRIVE AND AS I SLOWED TO A STOP IT STALLED - AGAIN THE ELECTRICAL REMAINED ON. WE TOOK IT TO THE DEALER THIS MORNING AND THEY TOLD US IT WAS NOT PART OF THE ORIGINAL RECALL AND THEY NEEDED TO KEEP IT, BUT COULDN'T TELL US WHAT WAS WRONG, WE CALLED CHRYSLER AND THEY COULDN'T TELL US ANYTHING EITHER. I HAVE TWO YOUNG CHILDREN AND THIS COULD BE HORRIBLE IF THIS HAPPENED ON THE HIGHWAY. *TR
