2007 JEEP COMMANDER 4X4 Engine And Engine Cooling Problems

THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AFTER THE ENGINE STALLED OUT SEVERAL TIMES IN A ROW. I HAD IT TESTED, AND THEY SAID IT WAS AN IDLE AIR CONTROL VALVE. THE IDLE AIR CONTROL VALVE DOES NOT EXIST ON THIS VEHICLE, BUT YET ITS THE ONLY CODE THAT IT IS GIVING OFF. I'M STILL HAVING STALLING ISSUES WHICH ARE DANGEROUS WHEN PULLING OUT OF INTERSECTIONS. ANOTHER ISSUE THAT IS ONGOING THAT I'M HAVING, IS THE SUNROOF LEAKING. I HAVE LITERALLY 2 GALLONS OF WATER THAT WILL BE ON MY FLOOR BOARD WHEN IT RAINS. YOU CAN HEAR WATER SLOSHING ABOVE YOUR HEAD BEFORE IT HITS THE WIRING IN THE DOOR PANELS AND THEN COLLECTS ON THE FLOOR BOARDS. *TR

I HAD THIS VEHICLE SINCE 2008, AND THIS IS THE THREE TIMES THAT IT WOULD NOT START ONCE DRIVEN. DRIVE THE VEHICLE TO THE STORE, PARK IT FOR AT LESS 15 MINS, WHEN I STARTED THE CAR IT DO NOT START. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COME ON . THE OTHER TWO TIME THAT THE CAR WOULD NOT START THE DEALERSHIP REPAIR SHOP COULD TELL ME WHAT WAS WRONG AND THE CAR START UP FOR THEM. THAT WAS IN 2010 AND 2011,NOW IT HAPPEN AGAIN! WAS TOLD THAT THIS PROBLEM NEED TO BE REPORTED. AFTER READING THE COMPLAINTS FROM THE OTHER OWNERS OF THE 2007 JEEP COMMANDER 4X4 THIS SEEM AS IF THIS IS A MAJOR PROBLEM. WE ARE BLESS THAT THERE HAS BEEN NO DEATHS. *TR

I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY WITH MY SON GOING AROUND 65 MILES PER HOUR. WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN MY TRUCK JEEP COMM, STARTED SLOWING DOWN, AND ALL THE OTHER CARS WERE PASSING BY ME SPEEDING AND BLOWING AT MY. I PULLED OVER AND RESTARTED THE CAR AND NOW THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND THE TRUCK WONT GO PASS 40 MILES AN HOUR. I HAVE A WARRANTY BUT THE DEALER IS ALWAYS TRYING TO GET OUT OF PAYING IT. *TR

WHILE DRIVING, THE ENGINE WILL SUDDENLY DIE WITHOUT WARNING. ALL POWER STEERING/BRAKES ARE LOST. IT WILL RESTART IMMEDIATELY. THIS IS AN ONGOING, BUT RANDOM PROBLEM. THE ONLY CODE THAT IS RECORDED REFERS TO THE IGNITION RELAY MODULE. TO DATE THE EGR, IGNITION RELAY MODULE, AND CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR HAVE BEEN REPLACED. THE PROBLEM PERSISTS. THIS PROBLEM REPRESENTS A SEVERE SAFETY ISSUE, AS A LOSS OF POWER WHILE PULLING INTO TRAFFIC COULD HAVE CATASTROPHIC CONSEQUENCES. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 JEEP COMMANDER 4X4. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 60 MPH, THE ENGINE STALLED WITH THE ILLUMINATION OF THE ENTIRE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE ENGINE AND RESUME IN OPERATION. THE FAILURE RECURRED TWENTY TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC FOR DIAGNOSIS BUT THE FAILURE WAS UNABLE TO BE DUPLICATED. THE MECHANIC ADVISED THE CONTACT THAT THE FAILURE COULD POSSIBLY HAVE BEEN RELATED TO THE PRIMARY CONTROL MODULE. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND THEY INFORMED THERE WAS NOT A RECALL. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 90,000. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE.

BEGINNING IN OCTOBER 2009 WHEN THE VEHICLE HAD LESS THAN 36K ON IT THE ENGINE STALLED ONCE. I THOUGHT MAYBE GAS OR SOMETHING....THEN TWO MORE TIMES IN OCTOBER WHILE STOPPED. GETS WORSE BY THE WEEK UNTIL IT IS ACTUALLY STALLING WHEN DRIVING AT 60MPH.....HAVE HAD IT IN FOR SERVICE ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS AND THEY HAVE REPLACED SEVERAL COMPONENTS AND STILL WILL STALL. THIS IS 2012 AND SINCE IT ALL BEGAN I HAVE FILED 2 CASES WITH CHRYSLER, ON THE FIRST GO ROUND, THEY THOUGHT THEY FIXED IT AND AGAIN A FEW WEEKS LATER IT BEGAN TO STALL. MY DAUGHTER, 6 YEARS OF AGE, IN THE CAR AND I AM TAKING HER TO SCHOOL AND THE ENGINE STALLS AND WE ALMOST WERE HIT BY A VEHICLE TRAVELING IN EXCESS OF 55 MPH, IF THAT VEHICLE DID NOT GET OUT OF THE WAY IT WOULD HAVE DIRECTLY HIT WHERE MY DAUGHTER WAS...

MY ENGINE LIGHT HAS BEEN COMING OVER THE LAST COUPLE YEARS. IN SEPTEMBER 1, 2009 TOOK CAR TO DEALERSHIP BECAUSE ENGINE LIGHT, ACCELERATION SLOW OR STALLING,CAR SHAKING AND TRANSMISSION CLUNKS INTO GEAR. I HAD 48,286 MILES AT THAT TIME.

WHILE TRAVELING AT 40MPH MY 2007 JEEP COMMANDER LOST POWER ACCELERATOR WOULD NO RESPOND THE SERVICE PARK ASSIST MESSAGE CAME ON AS DID THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND ALL THE GEAR INDICATORS IN THE DASH LIT UP. I STOPPED ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND AFTER I TURNED THE VEHICLE OFF AND RESTARTED IT WAS FINE FOR A FEW MORE MILES AND IT DID IT AGAIN AND AGAIN. TOOK THE VEHICLE TO MY JEEP DEALER AND THEY CHECKED IT OUT AND FOUND IT WAS THE TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE AND I JUST HAD TO PAY $1,329.59 TO HAVE IT REPAIRED. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND I WAS LUCKY I WAS DRIVING ON SIDE STREETS AS IN TRAFFIC OR ON THE HIGHWAY IT COULD HAVE CAUSED A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. THE SAME ISSUE HAPPENED ON THE 2006 COMMANDER AND JEEP RECALLED THEM AND THERE ARE THE SAME NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT...

THE 2007 JEEP COMMANDER'S ENGINE AND POWER SHUT OFF AT HIGHWAY SPEED (APPROX 65 MPH) ON I-95. THE POWER STEERING AND POWER BRAKES WERE NOT OPERATIONAL. MY WIFE HAD TO CROSS FOUR LANES OF TRAFFIC TO STOP THE VEHICLE ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD TO ATTEMPT TO RESTART THE VEHICLE. THE KEY WAS NOT BUMPED OR TOUCHED WHEN THE VEHICLE SHUT OFF. THE VEHICLE DID RESTART AFTER COMING TO A STOP. *TR

IT WAS A RAINY DAY. I PULLED MY CAR IN TO THE GARAGE AND SHUT OFF THE ENGINE. PULLED OUT THE KEY AND ENTERED MY HOUSE. THE GARAGE IS CONNECTED TO MY HOME. I CAME BACK TO THE GARAGE SOME TIME LATER TO FIND THE ENGINE WAS STILL ON. I RAN TO THE DRIVERS SEAT TO SEE NO KEY IN THE IGNITION AND VERIFIED THE REMOTE ENGINE FEATURE WASN'T ENGAGED, IT IS DESIGNED TO TURNOFF AFTER THE CAR DOOR IS OPEN FOR A SHORT TIME. THE ENGINE WOULDN'T SHUT OFF. I BROUGHT IT TO MY HUSBAND, WHO DROVE IT A BIT AND COULD NOT GET THE ENGINE OFF. EVENTUALLY IT SELF CORRECTED. A TRULY DANGEROUS ISSUE SINCE THIS CAR IS PARKED IN MY HOME. WE BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALER ABOUT 4 TIMES, AND WHILE THE ENGINE HASN'T DONE THAT AGAIN, VARIOUS PARTS OF THE CAR TURN ON SPONTANEOUSLY. A...

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 JEEP COMMANDER. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE WAITING AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE FAILURE OCCURRED SEVERAL TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE SPARK PLUGS WERE DEFECTIVE AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE REMEDY FAILED TO CORRECT THE FAILURE. THE SECOND TIME THE FAILURE OCCURRED THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR WAS DEFECTIVE AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED WHICH ALSO DID NOT CORRECT THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER A THIRD TIME, BUT THEY WERE NOT ABLE TO DUPLICATE THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 58,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 61, 000.

MY 2007 JEEP COMMANDER HAS STALLED AND LOST VARIOUS VEHICLE FUNCTIONS. THIS HAS HAPPENED A FEW TIMES WITH NO PRIOR WARNINGS FROM THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. I HAVE THE EXTENDED WARRANTY AND HAD IT TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR REPAIR. MY COMMANDER HAS ONLY 33K MILES ON IT. THE DEALER SAID THE PROBLEM WAS SOME SORT OF "ELECTRONICS BOARD", THEY REPLACED IT. HOWEVER, THE JEEP HAS STALLED AGAIN AND NOW THE "CHECK ENGINE" LIGHT IS ON AGAIN! THIS SEEMS TO BE AN ONGOING ISSUE WITH THE COMMANDERS. I ASK NHTSA TO PLEASE SERIOUSLY CONSIDER A RECALL TO CORRECT THESE ISSUES. THE COMMANDERS ARE NOW CREEPING UP IN AGE AND ARE NOW OUT OF FACTORY WARRANTY. PLEASE HELP TO CORRECT THESE ISSUES BEFORE THERE ARE MORE INJURIES OR DEATH. LETS KEEP IN MIND THAT THE MAJORITY OF PEOPLE WHO PURCHASED COMMANDERS ARE USING THEM AS A "FAMILY VEHICLE"! THANK YOU IN ADVANCE...

OUR 2007 JEEP COMMANDER 4X4 4.3L HAS A RECURRING STALLING PROBLEM. THEY VEHICLE WILL RANDOMLY NOT START, ALREADY REPLACED A STARTER, WITH ONLY 54,000 ON THE JEEP. WHILE DRIVING IN ALL TRAFFIC CONDITIONS,THE VEHICLE WILL HESITATED AND OCCASIONALLY JUST TURN OFF. *TR

I HAVE A 2007 JEEP COMMANDER. NOT THE LIMITED EDITION. IN THE 4 MONTHS THAT I HAVE OWNED IT, IT HAS STALLED WHILE DRIVING 3 TIMES RESULTING IN A NEW ESM, SUDDENLY LUNGED FORWARD, ON ITS OWN, WHILE STOPPED IN TRAFFIC, AND NOW STRANDED OUR FAMILY TWICE WITH NOT STARTING. THE FIRST TWO PROBLEMS ARE A SAFETY ISSUE AND SHOULD BE LOOKED INTO AND RECALLED IMMEDIATELY. STALLING WHILE DRIVING IS BEYOND DANGEROUS! WITH THE SUDDENLY ACCELERATING ON ITS OWN WHILE I WAS STOPPED IN TRAFFIC, HAD I NOT HAD MY FOOT FIRMLY ON THE BRAKE, SOMEONE COULD HAVE BEEN HURT. MY AUTISTIC SON WAS IN THE CAR WITH ME ON THAT OCCASION AND ON THE STALLING OCCASIONS, ALL 4 OF MY KIDS WERE IN THE VEHICLE. I HAVE LOST ALL CONFIDENCE IN MOPAR PRODUCTS AND JEEP NEEDS TO RECALL THESE HUNKS OF JUNK BEFORE SOMEONE, OR AN ENTIRE FAMILY, GETS...

I OWN A 2007 JEEP COMMANDER SUV. I HAVE BEEN HAVING NUMEROUS PROBLEMS WITH IT STALLING WHILE I AM IN MOTION. IT ALSO STALLS SOMETIMES WHILE I AM AT A LIGHT OR STOP SIGN. ANOTHER STRANGE OCCURRENCE IS THAT SOMETIMES I START IT AND ITS MOVING AND I AM STEPPING ON THE GAS AND IT JUST HAS NO POWER. IT GETS TO ABOUT 20 MPH AND I CAN STEP ALL THE WAY DOWN ON THE GAS PEDAL AND NOTHING, IT HAS NO POWER. I PULL OVER SHUT THE ENGINE OFF AND START IT AGAIN AND IT IS FINE UNTIL THE NEXT TIME. I HAVE BEEN HAVING THIS PROBLEM SINCE SEPTEMBER AND HAVE CONTACTED THE DEALER WHERE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE AS WELL AS OTHER MECHANICS AND I AM TOLD SOMETHING ABOUT A SENSOR SENSING THAT THERE IS A MALFUNCTION. THEY CANNOT HOWEVER FIX THE PROBLEM AND ACT LIKE THIS IS...

DRIVING A 2007 JEEP COMMANDER LIMITED 4X4, WITH 5.7 LITRE HEMI ENGINE AT 30 MILES PER HOUR ALONG SIDE ROAD, ENGINE CUT OUT UNEXPECTEDLY NO WARNING. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON 6 DIFFERENT OCCASIONS WITHIN THE PAST 6 MONTHS WITH NO CONSISTENCY RELATIVE TO SPEED, ROAD CONDITIONS, ETC. ON THE PREVIOUS 5 OCCASIONS THE VEHICLE CUT OUT FOR A FEW SECONDS, THEN RESTARTED ITSELF. ON THE LAST OCCASION, THE ENGINE CUT OUT COMPLETELY AND NEEDED TO BE GUIDED OFF THE ROAD. WHENEVER THIS OCCURS THE DRIVER LOSES ALL CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE CREATING AN UNCONTROLLABLE AND DANGEROUS SITUATION FOR THE DRIVER AND OTHER MOTORISTS. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN BROUGHT TO PAUL BAILEY JEEP CHRYLSLER DODGE ON 2 OCCASIONS FOR AN ASSESSMENT AND REVIEW OF THE CODE SYSTEM. NEITHER VISIT GAVE ANY INDICATION AS TO WHAT WAS CAUSING THE PROBLEM. A REPORT HAS BEEN LODGED WITH CHRYSLER AND WE ARE AWAITING INFORMATION...

WHEN MY 2007 JEEP COMMANDER IS IN DRIVE THE VEHICLE WILL STALL AND SPUTTER OR COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN. VEHICLE SPEED VARIES BETWEEN 5 AND 60 MILES PER HOUR WHEN THE PROBLEM OCCURS. THE PROBLEM STARTED IN OCTOBER 2009 VEHICLE SPEED AT THAT TIME WAS 5MPH. SINCE THEN THE SPEED WHEN THE FAILURE OCCURS HAS INCREASED AND THE LAST TIME (JANUARY 2010) I WAS DRIVING AT 55 MPH THE VEHICLE ENGINE SUDDENLY SHUT OFF, NO POWER WAS VISIBLE ON ANY CONTROL I.E. DASHBOARD LIGHTS, RADIO, ETC AND I LOST STEERING POWER. LUCKILY I WAS ABLE COAST OFF INTO THE EMERGENCY LANE STOP THE VEHICLE MOVE IT TO PARK AND RESTART. THE PROBLEM OCCURS RANDOMLY AND WITH NO APPARENT WARNING. WHEN IT CUTS OFF I LOSE POWER STEERING AND HAVE HAD SEVERAL NEAR ACCIDENTS WITH CARS TRAVELING BEHIND ME. WHEN THE VEHICLE STALLS AND SPUTTERS BUT DOES NOT LOSE ALL POWER IT...

MY 2007 JEEP COMMANDER HAS STALLED NUMEROUS TIMES IN 55 MPH TRAFFIC THAT I TRAVEL IN DAILY TO WORK. THE DATE BELOW IS MOST RECENT. IT IS AS IF ALL OF A SUDDEN IT IS NOT GETTING FUEL AD WILL NOT RESPOND TO THE THROTTLE. I HAVE HAD IT INTO THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP SEVERAL TIMES AND OF COURSE THEY CANNOT REPEAT THE INCIDENT. I HAVE SEEN MANY OTHER POSTINGS FROM COMMANDER OWNERS ON INTERNET BULLETIN BOARDS WITH THE SAME ISSUES. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION FOR A VEHICLE TO REPEATEDLY STALL LIKE THAT IN TRAFFIC. PLEASE DO SOMETHING BEFORE SOMEONE IS SERIOUSLY INJURED. *TR

2007 JEEP COMMANDER STALLS WITHOUT WARNING AT IDLE AND ROAD SPEEDS. *TR

2007 JEEP COMMANDER WITH V6 ENGINE. CAR HAS STALLED IN TRAFFIC NUMEROUS TIMES, AND HAS BEEN TO THE DEALER FOR REPAIR UNDER WARRANTY. IT IS NOW AT THE DEALER FOR THE 4TH OR 5TH TIME FOR STALLING. EACH TIME, THEY CLAIM SOMETHING DIFFERENT WAS THE ROOT CAUSE. I AM CONVINCED THEY DO NOT KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM IS, THEREFORE THEY CANNOT POSSIBLY FIX IT. *TR

ERIE, PA 11/3/08 SEARCH UNDER RUMSEY, JOANN THE NEWSPAPERS DESCRIBE IT ALL AND PICTURES SPEAK A THOUSAND WORDS. THIS 2007 JEEP COMMANDER CRASHED BY STALLING AT A HIGH SPEED CLAIMING THE LIVES OF A YOUNG WOMAN 40 YEARS OLD AND HER 2 CHILDREN WHO WERE 4 YRS OLD AND 18 MONTHS OLD. PLEASE SEARCH AND REVIEW THIS INCIDENT BEFORE SELECTING TO PUT YOUR FAMILY IN A BRAND NEW JEEP VEHICLE. A 5 STAR CRASH RATING WILL NOT DO MUCH GOOD IF THE VEHICLE STALLS AT A HIGH SPEED AND THE DRIVER IS UNABLE TO CONTROL SUCH VEHICLE. PLEASE, IF YOU HAVE A FAMILY REVIEW THIS BEFORE PURCHASING A JEEP PRODUCT. *TR

I WAS DRIVING MY 2007 JEEP COMMANDER WITH ABOUT 25K MILES DRIVEN. I NOTICED THAT SOMETIMES THE VEHICLE WILL NOT ACCELERATE ON DEMAND. THE TACHOMETER DROPS TO 10K RPM.

I OWN A 2007 JEEP COMMANDER WHICH I PURCHASED USED IN MAY OF 2007. MY JEEP STALLED ON ME AS I WAS SITTING IN TRAFFIC WITH NO WARNING. I BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR SERVICE AND THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM AND TOLD ME THAT THEY COULD NOT DO ANYTHING UNTIL IT GETS WORSE. THEY ALSO TOLD ME THAT THEY SCANNED THE VEHICLE AND NO ERROR CODES CAME UP. AFTER RESEARCHING THIS ON THE INTERNET, I FOUND OUT THAT THIS SEEMS TO BE A RECURRING PROBLEM WITH 2006 AND 2007 COMMANDERS. GOING FORWARD I AM GOING TO BE NERVOUS DRIVING MY VEHICLE FOR FEAR THAT THIS IS GOING TO HAPPEN AGAIN AND IT MAY CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. I DO NOT WANT TO SPEND HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS TRYING TO FIND OUT THE PROBLEM ONLY TO HAVE THEM KEEP TELLING ME THAT THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT IT IS. PLEASE HELP....

THE TOTAL OCCURRENCES INCLUDE SEVEN INCIDENTS OF ENGINE STALLING TO DATE, THE MOST RECENT INCIDENT ON OR AROUND DECEMBER 26TH, 2007. FIVE INCIDENTS OCCURRED WHILE MY LEASED 2007 JEEP COMMANDER WAS IDLING IN PARK. TWO OF THE ENGINE STALLS OCCURRED WHILE ACTUALLY DRIVING MY VEHICLE, THE DECEMBER 17TH, 2007 INCIDENT WHILE DRIVING UPWARDS OF 50MPH. I WAS FORCED TO PUT MY EMERGENCY BRAKES ON, CHANGE TO NEUTRAL, AND RESTART THE ENGINE WHILE MY CAR WAS MOVING AT A HIGH SPEED ON JUST ITS MOMENTUM. THERE WAS A RISK OF A NEAR ACCIDENT WITH BOTH THE CAR TO MY SIDE AND BEHIND ME. I ATTEMPTED TO CORRECT THIS INSTABILITY BY TAKING THE CAR TO THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT OF THE DEALERSHIP I LEASED IT FROM. I WAS GIVEN TWO UNREASONABLE OPTIONS BY THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT AFTER HAVING LEFT MY VEHICLE THERE UNTIL THE CLOSE OF BUSINESS THAT DAY: EITHER LEAVE MY VEHICLE...
