2006 JEEP COMMANDER 4X2 Electronic Stability Control Esc Problems

FIRST ANNOYANCE WAS THE INSIDE DOOR HANDLE ON THE DRIVERS SIDE. IT FAILED TO OPEN THE DOOR AT AROUND 45,000 MILES. THEN THE REAR PASSENGER INSIDE DOOR HANDLE JUST CRUMBLED OUT OF NOWHERE AROUND 47,000 MILES. THEN AROUND 50,000 MILES THE BRAKES 'FELT DIFFERENT' WHEN BRAKING AND IT FELT TO HARD TO PRESS DOWN ON THE PEDAL TO STOP THE VEHICLE. THE BRAKE PEDAL FELT HARD AS A ROCK THEN THE ABS WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON AND AFTER A DIAGNOSIS I WAS TOLD THAT IT HAD TO BE REPLACED. WHENEVER WE WENT THROUGH A PUDDLE OF WATER ON A TURN THE JEEPS STEERING WOULD LOCK UP AND JUST KEPT MOVING FORWARD & NOT TURNING.

WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 30 MPH, DASHBOARD LIGHTS BEGAN TO FLICKER OFF AND ON AND STEERING VEHICLE INTO A LEFT TURN WAS HARD TO DO. TOOK VEHICLE TO JEEP SERVICE DEPARTMENT AND WAS ADVISED THAT PROBLEM IS A ELECTRIC STABILITY CONTROL ISSUE, THE MODULE IS DEFECTIVE AND MANUFACTURER HAS NOT IDENTIFIED A FIX. WAS TOLD I COULD PURCHASE A NEW MODULE, APPROX. $400.00 FOR INSTALL, BUT THERE IS NO GUARANTEE THAT PROBLEM WILL GO AWAY. LIGHTENING CONTINUES TO FLICKER APPROXIMATELY 3 - 4 TIMES PER MONTH. ABLE TO DRIVE VEHICLE, BUT CONFIDENCE IN JEEP AUTOS IS SHAKEN. MANUFACTURER SHOULD BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE. *TR

WE HAVE CALLED JEEP TO LET THEM KNOW WHAT IS GOING ON WITH THE VEHICLE. THE COMPUTER TO THE TRANSMISSION IS PUTTING IN GEARS THAT ARE NOT CORRECT. SOMETIMES U CAN LET GAS GO AND JEEP WILL BE RUNNING 20 TO 30 MILES ON ITS OWN. ALSO YESTERDAY I PUT THE JEEP ON NEUTRAL AND IT WENT REVERSE REAL FAST ABOUT 15 MILES. 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...

2006 JEEP COMMANDER STALLS AT NO PARTICULAR TIME, ROLLS BACK ON AN INCLINE AFTER TAKING FOOT OFF BRAKE PEDAL, VEHICLE WILL SHUT OFF AT NO PARTICULAR TIME. JEEP HAS RECALLS FOR THESE PROBLEMS BUT THE VIN SAYS NONE IS AVAILABLE THEREFORE DEALER WILL NOT PERFORM RECALL. RECALL IS FOR THE V8 MODEL BUT THE VEHICLE HAS THE EXACT SAME TRANSMISSION AND HAS THE SAME CHARACTERISTICS EVEN THOUGH IT IS A V6 MODEL. VERY UNSAFE TO DRIVE WHILE HAVING THESE PROBLEMS. *TR
