TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 JEEP COMMANDER. WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED AND LOST ALL POWER. THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT MOVE WHEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. THE CONTACT RESTARTED THE VEHICLE IMMEDIATELY AFTER IT STALLED. THE DEALER REPLACED THE SHIFT MODULE BUT THE FAILURE CONTINUED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER WHO COULD NOT FIND THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT CALLED THE MANUFACTURER WHO TOOK HIS COMPLAINT AND STATED THAT A REPRESENTATIVE WOULD CONTACT HIM WITHIN 24 HOURS. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 48,075.

2007 JEEP COMMANDER, 51,000 MILES, STALLS WHILE DRIVING WITHOUT ANY WARNING. I WAS ABLE TO GUIDE VEHICLE TO SIDE OF THE ROAD AND RE-START THE ENGINE. THIS STALLING PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED ON TWO OCCASIONS NOW, ONCE WITH MY KIDS ON BOARD, A SCARY SITUATION TO SAY THE LEAST. THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON A WEEK AFTER THE LAST INCIDENT AND DEALER BELIEVES THE PROBLEM IS A FAULTY ELECTRONIC SHIFT MODULE, WHICH THEY SAID IS A KNOWN PROBLEM. WHEN PRESSED ABOUT STALLING OF 2007 COMMANDERS, DEALER SAID THEY WERE NOT AWARE OF ANY PROBLEMS OR RECALL, YET REPLACEMENT OF THE ELECTRONIC SHIFT MODULE IS A KNOWN PROBLEM? BASED UPON THE SUBMISSIONS TO NHTSA REGARDING THIS PROBLEM, NHTSA NEEDS TO TAKE ACTION NOW. THE HISTORY OF REPORTS REGARDING 2007 COMMANDERS NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED, I URGE THE NHTSA AND CHRYSLER DO THE RIGHT THING BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE. *TR

2007 JEEP COMMANDER STALLING WHILE IDLING AT A STOP OR PARKED AND IN IDLE. THE VEHICLE IDLES ROUGH AND BEGINS TO STALL. SOMETIMES IT RECOVERS BUT WHEN IT DOES IT ACCELERATES AND LUNGES FORWARD. IF MY FOOT WAS NOT FIRMLY ON THE BRAKE, I WOULD SLAM INTO THE CAR OR ANY OBJECT IN FRONT OF ME. I HAVE 34,000 MILES ON IT NOW. IT HAS BEEN OCCURRING FOR OVER A YEAR NOW (12-15K MILES). I PURCHASED THE JEEP FROM A JEEP DEALER AFTER IT HAD BEEN OWNED FOR A YEAR AND HAD 13,000 MILES ON IT. I DO NOT KNOW IF THIS WAS A PROBLEM FOR THE PREVIOUS OWNER BUT IT IS A CONTINUING PROBLEM FOR ME. IT HAS BEEN TO THE DEALER 5 TIMES FOR THE PROBLEM AND YET TO BE DIAGNOSED OR RESOLVED. IT IS A DANGEROUS DRIVING SITUATION AND I HAVE THREE YOUNG CHILDREN IN MY CAR...

2007 JEEP COMMANDER HAS STALLING ISSUES WHEN IT IS RAINING OR AIR IS WET. THIS OCCURS AT IDLE AND SLOW SPEEDS. THIS MODEL (2006 AND 2007) HAS MANY COMPLAINTS, BUT NOTHING IS BEING DONE TO CORRECT IT OR TO HOLD CHRYSLER RESPONSIBLE. THE STALL CAN BE DANGEROUS AND VEHICLE LUNGES FORWARD WHEN IT AUTOMATICALLY TRIED TO RECOVER BEFORE STALLING. *TR

I HAVE A 2007 JEEP COMMANDER OVERLAND WITH A 5.7L V8 HEMI MOTOR WITH 35,000 MILES ON IT. I AM EXPERIENCING STALLING WITH MY VEHICLE. MY VEHICLE HAS STALLED THREE TIMES NOW - ONCE AT A STOP LIGHT, ONCE WHILE IDLING IN A PARKING LOT, AND ONCE WHILE DRIVING (AROUND 10 -15 MPH). I SPOKE WITH CHRYSLER AND THEY BLEW ME OFF. I FEEL UNSAFE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE AND AM FEARFUL THIS WILL HAPPEN AGAIN AT A HIGH SPEED OR SOMEWHERE WHERE THIS STALLING WILL RESULT IN AN ACCIDENT. WHILE SEARCHING THE INTERNET AND VARIOUS FORUMS, I FOUND SEVERAL COMPLAINTS REGARDING THIS STALLING ISSUE. WHAT CAN BE DONE ABOUT THIS IF CHRYSLER DENIES THE PROBLEM AND INSISTS THEY "CAN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG" WITH THE VEHICLE? IT CAN'T BE A 'FLUKE' IF THOUSANDS OF JEEP COMMANDER DRIVERS ARE COMPLAINING ABOUT THIS SAME ISSUE! *TR

I OWN A 2007 JEEP COMMANDER. SHORTLY AFTER PURCHASING IT, I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY THAT RUNS THROUGH MY TOWN AT ABOUT 40 MPH AND THE VEHICLE STALLED OUT. I TRIED TO GIVE IT SOME GAS TO GO BUT I KEPT DECELERATING. I SHIFTED MY GEAR SHIFT TO PARK, SHUT IT OFF AND RESTARTED MY CAR AND IT WENT BACK TO RUNNING NORMALLY FOR A COUPLE OF DAYS. IT HAPPENED 4 MORE TIMES BEFORE I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP. THEY TOLD ME THAT IT WAS A COMPUTER ERROR AND THEY CORRECTED IT. TWO WEEKS LATER, I LEFT MY DRIVEWAY AND WAS HEADING DOWN MY STREET AND MY CAR STARTED BUCKING UNCONTROLLABLY. I CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP AND PUT MY CAR IN PARK AND WAITED A FEW SECONDS BEFORE SHIFTING BACK TO DRIVE. I CAME TO A STOP SIGN A FEW BLOCKS LATER AND MY JEEP STALLED...
