2006 JEEP COMMANDER 4X2 Electrical System Problems

MY CAR LEAKS DURING RAIN FROM THE SUNROOF TO THE BLUE HOSE DRAIN AND FLOODED MY CAR. WHICH MESSED UP THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. I'M HAVING PROBLEMS WITH MY CAR SAYING IT'S OVER HEATING BUT IT'S NOT IT'S THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM TELLING THE COMPUTER IN CAR THAT IT'S HOW WHEN ITS NOT AND NOW MY TRANSMISSION IS MESSED UP WE THINK. MY CAR IS CURRENTLY AT JEEP DEALER IN CERRITOS, CA FOR 2 DAYS NOW AND NO ONE CAN TELL ME WHAT WRONG.

THE SUNROOF DRAIN DESIGN WAS FAULTY. DURING RAINING WEATHER, THE SUNROOF DRAINS CANNOT HANDLE THE COLLECTED RAIN AND THE RAIN WILL OVERFLOW AND GO INTO THE CAR. THE RAIN THAT OVERFLOWS FALLS INTO THE FRONT PANEL AND HAS CAUSED MULTIPLE ELECTRICAL FAILURES AND SHORTAGES. MOST IMPORTANTLY THE WATER HAS DAMAGED THE INSTRUMENT PANEL AND HEADLIGHT CONTROLS WHICH CAUSES THEM TO SHUT OFF WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 JEEP COMMANDER 4X2. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FRONT DRIVER AND PASSENGER DOOR HANDLES FRACTURED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER (HOLLYWOOD CHRYSLER JEEP, FT. LAUDERDALE, FLORIDA, 954-399-598) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE DOOR PANELS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. LATER, THE REAR DRIVER AND PASSENGER DOOR HANDLES ALSO FRACTURED. THE FAILURES WERE NOT REPAIRED. ADDITIONALLY, THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V438000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM). THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 135,000. PARTS DISTRIBUTION DISCONNECT.

THE A/C INLET FITTING IS DEFECTIVE CAUSING THE COOLANT TO LEAK OUT AND THE ENGINE TO OVERHEAT, THE PCM IS DEFECTIVE AND SAYS THE TIRE PRESSURE IS LOW WHEN IT ISNT

DRIVING UNDER CERTAIN CONDITIONS THE VEHICLE ENGINE COMPLETELY SHUTS OFF AND STALLS. THIS HAPPENS ON THE HIGHWAY, MOSTLY AT SPEEDS OF ABOUT 45-60 MPH. THE TWO RECALLS AVAILABLE ON THE VEHICLE AS IT RELATES TO THIS ISSUE (TCM/PCM ) ( IGNITION SWITCH) HAVE BEEN RECENTLY FIXED BY THE DEARLERSHIP, HOWEVER THE VEHICLE CONTINUES TO MULFUNCTION IN THE SAME MANNER AND APPEARS TO BE GETTING WORSE. CONTACTING CHRYSLER, THEY ARE ABRASIVE AND UNCOOPERATIVE. A LITTLE RESEARCH SHOWS THAT THERE ARE SEVERAL OWNER COMPLAINTS ON THIS VERY ISSUE DATING BACK TO 2006-2007-2008. THERE APPEARS TO BE AN "ACTIVE" INVESTIGATION ONGOING BY THE NHTSA-OFFICE OF DEFECTS INVESTIGATIONS. WHAT IS THE STATUS OF THIS INVESTIGATION-10 YEARS LATER??? THERE APPEARS TO BE NO INTEREST ON THE PART OF THE MANAUFACTURER TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE WITHOUT THE VEHICLE OWNER INCURRING MASSIVE LOSES IN ENDLESS DIAGNOSTIC AND REPAIR EXPENSES.

THE JEEP WAS LEVEL SO NO EXCUSE WHY IT SHOULD BE GOING BACKWARDS ON NEUTRAL. I HAVE CALLED JEEP AND LET THEM KNOW AND THEY TELL ME I HAVE TO TAKE IT TO GET FIXED. I DON'T HAVE THE MONEY TO DO THIS RIGHT NOW. THIS CAN REALLY CAUSE A ACCIDENT IF SOMEONE WAS IN THE BACK OF MY JEEP AT THAT TIME . I TOOK IT TO GET CHECKED AT AUTO ZONE AND THEY TOLD ME IT WAS FACTORY CODES AND THEY COULD NOT HELP BUT...

I EXPLAINED THE PREVIOUS EVENING I NOTICED STEERING DID NOT SEEM RIGHT AND I HAD TO PUSH ON GAS MORE TO GET THE CAR TO HAVE POWER. I MENTIONED THIS TO MY HUSBAND IN CASE IT WAS TIME TO CHECK SPARK PLUGS AND GET A TUNE UP. THE NEXT MORNING I WENT THROUGH A CAR WASH AND STARTED A 30 MILE COMMUTE. WHILE DRIVING 65-70 MPH ON A HIGHWAY THE VEHICLE LIGHTS AND ALL POWER SHUT DOWN WITHOUT WARNING. THE ONLY THING WORKING WAS THE RADIO. NO BRAKES, STEERING WAS DIFFERENT. THANKFULLY THIS TIME WAS ABLE TO PULL TO A SHOULDER AND COAST TO AN OFFRAMP. I COASTED TO A STOP, PUT IN PARK THEN TRIED TO START. THE VEHICLE STARTED AGAIN AND I DROVE STRAIGHT TO THE DEALERSHIP 4 MILES AWAY. I EXPLAINED TO THE DEALER AND ALSO CALLED THE MAKER OF THE VEHICLES RECALL DEPT. THEY OPENED A...

WHILE DRIVING MY CAR IT SIMPLY CUT OFF - WENT DEAD. I HAD TO PULL OFF THE ROAD WITH NO POWER STEERING. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED WITH THIS VEHICLE.

I DRIVE A 2006 JEEP COMMANDER LIMITED V8 AND IT HAS A TENDENCY TO STALL FOR NO REASON.

I LEASED MY 2006 JEEP COMMANDER 4X2 4.7 V8 IN 2006. THE VEHICLE BEGAN HAVING PROBLEMS THE SAME DAY I BROUGHT IT HOME. THE VEHICLE STALLS FREQUENTLY AND THE ELECTRIC SYSTEM DISABLES. THE STALLING OCCURS WITHOUT WARNING. THE STALLING ALSO OCCURS AT VARIOUS SPEEDS AND WHILE THE VEHICLE IS NOT MOVING. WHEN THE ENGINE SHUTS OFF, THE VEHICLE IS COMPLETELY DISABLED. THE BRAKES WONT WORK AND I LOSE TOTAL CONTROL OVER THE VEHICLE. I WAS INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT IN 2007 DUE TO THIS ISSUE, JEEP/CHRYSLER HAS DENIED THE REPAIR EVEN THOUGH I RECEIVED A RECALL LETTER. THE ODOMETER IS ALSO INCORRECT, IT CHANGES NUMBERS FREQUENTLY. CHRYSLER INFORMED ME THAT THE VEHICLE IS SAFE TO DRIVE AND DENIED ANY FURTHER REPAIRS CONCERNING THE RECALL. THE VEHICLE IS STILL THE SAME, IT STALLS VERY OFTEN. PLEASE HELP ME. *TR

WE OWN A 2006 JEEP COMMANDER THAT HAS BEEN A PROBLEM FROM THE FIRST MONTH WE OWNED IT. THE FIRST INCIDENT OCCURRED WHEN MY WIFE AND 3 CHILDREN WERE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND THE VEHICLE SHUT OFF AT 65 MPH. THE VEHICLE HAS CONSISTENTLY EXPERIENCED THE SAME CHALLENGE AT LOW AND HIGH SPEEDS. IN ADDITION, WE HAVE EXPERIENCED SIMILAR ISSUES AS OTHER OWNERS SUCH AS; TRANSMISSION NOISES AND SLIPPAGE, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM FAILURES, EXCESSIVE BREAK NOISE, BREAK WEAR, EXCESSIVE CRACKING IN WINDSHIELD, SEATBELT FAILURE, WINDOW LEAKS, STEREO REPLACEMENT AND MORE! IN THE LAST 9 MONTHS THIS VEHICLE HAS BEEN TO THE DEALER FOR REPAIR MORE THAN 6 TIMES FOR SIMILAR ISSUES. THE DEALER, AS WITH OTHER CUSTOMERS HAS CLAIMED THEY "CAN'T REPLICATE THE PROBLEM..." AND SENT US ON OUR WAY. I HAVE NOW EMBARKED UPON HAVING THE VEHICLE BOUGHT BACK BY THE MANUFACTURER AND WILL ALSO BEGIN A FORMAL LEGAL...

OUR 2006 JEEP COMMANDER V8 4.7L HAS STALLED WHILE DRIVING AT LEAST 5 TIMES. 3 TIMES ON THE HIGHWAY AND TWICE ON SLOW TURNS. INITIALLY THE PROBLEM SEEMED RELATED TO THE IGNITION SWITCH. JUST A SLIGHT BRUSH AGAINST THE KEY WAS ENOUGH TO KILL THE ENGINE AND SOME OF THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS (SPECIFICALLY POWER ASSIST). WHILE OUT OF TOWN DURING THIS PAST CHRISTMAS THE THIRD HIGHWAY FAILURE AND FIRST SLOW TURN FAILURE OCCURRED. THE OUT OF TOWN DEALER REPLACED THE IGNITION SWITCH. ANOTHER SLOW TURN FAILURE OCCURRED ON MARCH 20, 2008, WHERE THE DISABLED POWER ASSIST HAD MY WIFE VEERING INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC. WE HAD THE DEALER PICK UP THE CAR AT OUR HOME. THE SERVICE MANAGER STATED THAT THIS WAS THE FIFTH COMMANDER HE HAD PERSONALLY SEEN WITH THIS ISSUE. THE CURRENT FIX WAS TO UPGRADE THE FIRMWARE OF THE ENGINE CONTROLLER UNIT.
