2007 JEEP COMMANDER 4X4 Power Trainautomatic Transmission Problems

I OWN A 2007 JEEP COMMANDER 4 X 4 3.7L. AFTER HAVING SOME ISSUES WITH, WHAT I THOUGHT WAS THE TRANSMISSION SLIPPING, I CHECKED AND ADDED TRANS. FLUID AND HAD BOTH TRANS LINES REPLACED DUE TO LEAKING. EVERYTHING SEEMED TO BE OK FOR A COUPLE WEEKS, UNTIL I WAS DRIVING TO WORK AND NOT ONLY WAS THERE A DELAY WHEN I WOULD TRY TO ACCELERATE, THE SERVICE PARKING ASSIST SYSTEM MESSAGE APPEARED A COUPLE TIMES, ALONG WITH THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT ACCELERATE OVER 30 MILES PER HOUR AND THE RPMS WOULD RUN ABOVE 2 ON THE DASH. I PARKED, TURNED THE ENGINE OFF, HOPING IT WOULD RESET THE SYSTEM, BUT IT STILL CONTINUED TO REPEAT THE SAME THINGS WHEN I TURNED EVERYTHING BACK ON AGAIN. THIS WENT ON FOR ABOUT 10 MINUTES. THEN AFTER 10 MINUTES PASSED, I WAS STOPPED AT A LIGHT AND WHEN I...

SERVICE PARK ASSIST SYSTEM WOULD COME UP AND P R N D WOULD LIGHT UP, THEN JEEP WOULD NOT ACCELERATE UNTIL I PUT IT IN NEUTRAL OR PARK AND THEN BACK INTO DRIVE. A COUPLE OF TIMES WHEN IT WOULD NOT ACCELERATE IT HAD COMPLETELY STALLED OUT FOR NO REASON. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON INTERMITENTLY DURING THIS TIME. ALSO, MANUAL SHIFT BEVEL STOPPED WORKING ABOUT 4 MONTHS AFTER GETTING THE VEHICLE (STILL COVERED BY WARRANTY) AND WAS REPLACED, STOPPED WORKING ABOUT 5 MONTHS AFTER THAT AND WAS REPLACED WITH THE WARRANTY BUT THEN STOPPED WORKING AGAIN ABOUT 3 MONTHS LATER AND IS NOT COVERED BY THE WARRANTY ANY LONGER. ABOUT 1 MONTH AGO HEARD A LOUD NOISE AS I WAS GOING FROM REVERSE TO DRIVE AND NOW EVERYTIME IT SHIFTS FROM FIRST TO SECOND OR SECOND TO FIRST IT SHIFTS VERY HARD. *TR

SERVICE PARK ASSIST LIGHT CAME ON AND ALL POWER WAS LOST. CODE SHOWS A TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE IT APPEARS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM ON THE JEEP COMMANDER. SAFETY ISSUE WHEN YOUR TRAVELING AT 65MPH AND YOUR POWER FAILS. *TR

WE HAVE A 2007 JEEP/COMMANDER SPORT THATS REALLY SOMEWHAT A PROBLE SINCE WE BOUGHT IT (USED) AND ITS BEEN A PROBLEM SINCE GETTING IT. IT HAS A SERIOUS PROBLEM WITH LURCHING FORWARD WHILE IN PARK/DRIVE AND WHILE YOU'RE PRESSING THE BRAKES AT A STOP. IT DID IT AT THE DEALERSHIP AS WELL THEY DID NOTHING ABOUT IT. WE'VE REPLACED INNER PARTS TO THE TRANSMISSION THAT CHRYSLER REFUSED TO COVER UNDER THE WARRANTY. WE'VE HAD SOME TYPE OF MODULE REPLACED A COUPLE OF TIMES BECAUSE THE TRUCK STARTED RUNNING ROUGH( CHRYSLER COVERED THAT) EACH TIME IT HAPPENED. THERES SO MUCH WE CAAN COMPLAIN ABOUT THIS TRUCK AND CHRYSLER DOESNT WNAT TO COVER NON OF THE MAJOR THINGS. THERE'S DEFINITELY /ALWAYS HAS BEEN AN ENGINE PROBLEM. *TR

AT INTERMITTENT TIMES THE VEHICLE WOULD DELAY UPON PRESSING THE ACCELERATOR AND NOT SHIFT PROPERLY. IT WAS TAKEN TO BE SERVICED AFTER THE TRANSMISSION REVERTED TO "SAFE MODE" WHILE DRIVING. DEALER RESET THE SYSTEM. ACCELERATION AND SHIFTING PROBLEMS CONTINUED UNTIL "CHECK ENGINE" LIGHT ILLUMINATED TOGETHER WITH THE "SERVICE PARKING ASSIST SYSTEM" MESSAGE. WERE INFORMED BY THE DEALER THAT THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE WAS FAULTY AND WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED. DEALER ALSO INFORMED US THAT THE PART HAD BEEN PREVIOUSLY REPLACED BY AN AUTHORIZED JEEP SERVICE CENTER PRIOR TO US PURCHASING THE VEHICLE. *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...

2007 JEEP COMMANDER: AFTER STARTING THE VEHICLE AND PUT INTO GEAR; GEAR ENGAGEMENT IS DELAYED. REACTION IS TO PUSH THE GAS PEDAL TO ACCELERATE.

ENGINE STALL AT RANDOM TIMES, WEATHER CONDITIONS AND DRIVING SPEEDS THE ENGINE STOPS ACCELERATING BUT DOES NOT TURN OFF. ITS AS IF THE CAR IS IN NEUTRAL GEAR WHEN IT IS IN DRIVE. THE LIGHTS AROUND THE LED GEAR DISPLAY FLASH IN UNISON AFTER 4 15 SECONDS THE CAR ACCELERATES AGAIN. THE ENGINE LIGHT WILL TURN ON FOR A DAY OR A MINUTE AND THEN SHUT OFF. THE ISSUE HAS OCCURRED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS OVER THE LAST YEAR THE LATEST IS LISTED BELOW. THE JEEP DEALER CANNOT FIND ANY PROBLEM. *TR

2007 JEEP COMMANDER, 92,000 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 ABOUT TEN OCCASIONS NOW, ONCE WITH MY KIDS ON BOARD, A SCARY SITUATION TO SAY THE LEAST. SOMETIMES BEFORE THE PROBLEM STARTS THE PARK ASSIST WILL TURN ITSELF OFF AND THEN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WILL COME ON. WE HAVE TRIED SEVERAL TIMES TO GET AN ERROR CODE FROM THE COMPUTER SYSTEM BY TURNING THE KEY 3 TIMES IN A ROW BUT IT NEVER RETURNS A CODE. SOMETIMES THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WILL STAY ON FOR A COUPLE OF DAYS BUT EVENTUALLY GOES OUT AND THE JEEP WILL RUN FINE UNTIL IT HAPPENS AGAIN. THE LAST TIME THIS OCCURRED THE ABILITY TO SHIFT THE GEARS FROM 1 TO 4 WAS INOPERABLE AND WHEN YOU PRESSED THE GEAR SHIFT...

WE BOUGHT A 2007 JEEP COMMANDER V6 IN JULY/AUGUST OF '08 AND HAVE CONSTANTLY HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE ESM (ELECTRONIC SHIFT MODULE) DURING THE FIRST FEW VISITS THEY STATED THAT "PROBLEM COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED" AND THEY WOULD FLASH THE VEHICLES COMPUTER AND IT WOULD RUN FOR AWHILE THEN FINALLY THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND GOT THE VEHICLE IN AND FOUND IT WAS THE ESM WHICH WAS FINALLY REPLACED IN APR '09 AFTER NUMEROUS ATTEMPTS TO HAVE THEM FIX. SINCE IT WAS STILL UNDER THE 3YR/36K WARRANTY IT WAS AT NO COST. NOW IT HAS GONE OUT AGAIN LESS THAN A YEAR LATER AND OUR WARRANTY HAS EXPIRED AND JEEP STATES THAT THEIR PART WARRANTY (WHICH SHOULD BE 12MO/12K) EXPIRED ALONG WITH THE FACTORY WARRANTY AND WE ARE OUT OF LUCK. THE PART WAS REPLACED AS A "GOODWILL" GESTURE WHICH WAS TOLD TO ME BY A CUSTOMER SERVICE...

MY 2007 JEEP COMMANDER 3.7L 6 CYL. 4X4 NEARLY COMES TO A STALL WHEN IDLING OR COMING TO A STOP. RECENTLY, AT IDLE, IT ACTUALLY STALLS OUT. I TOOK THIS TO THE DEALER AND THEY SAID NOTHING WAS WRONG. I AM NOW TAKING IT IN TO ANOTHER DEALER FOR MORE TESTING. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 JEEP COMMANDER 4X4. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WOULD STALL WITHOUT WARNING AND LOSE TOTAL POWER WHILE IN TRANSIT. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER, BUT THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE FAILURE. THE DEALER STATED THAT THEY COULD NOT REPAIR WHAT THEY COULD NOT SEE.

THE THIRD TIME THE FAILURE OCCURRED, THE DEALER REPLACED THE TRANSMISSION SOFTWARE AS WELL AS THE TRANSMISSION MODULE. THE DEALER STATED THAT THE FAILURE WOULD NOT RECUR; HOWEVER, IT CONTINUED.

ENGINE FAILURE/STALL/LOSS OF POWER ON 2007 JEEP COMMANDER. HAS HAPPENED ABOUT 6 TIMES NOW. SOMETIMES AT LOW SPEEDS...SOMETIMES ON THE FREEWAY. STARTED HAPPENING AROUND 15,000 MILES. DEALER TRIED TO REPLICATE IT. THEY SAID THEY COULD NOT. SO THEY HAVE DONE NOTHING TO FIX IT. I HAVE TOLD THEM ABOUT IT 3 TIMES. NOW IT HAS HAPPENED AGAIN AT 39,000 MILES AND ON THE FREEWAY. I LOST CONTROL AND IT BECAME AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS SITUATION AS I TRIED TO COAST OVER TO THE EMERGENCY SHOULDER. TEMPORARY BRAKE POWER LOST AND NO RESPONSE TO THE ATTEMPTS TO START IT IN NEUTRAL. PLEASE HELP! STARTED IN 2007 AND CONTINUES TO HAPPEN IN 2009. I HAVE NOT BEEN NOTIFIED OF ANY RECALLS OR TSBS. I OWN THE VEHICLE. *TR

I PURCHASED A 2007 JEEP COMMANDER IN OCTOBER OF 2006. AT ABOUT 2,000 MILES, I EXPERIENCED AN ELECTRICAL FAILURE THAT CAUSED MANY GAUGES TO COME ON OR GO OFF. I DID LOSE MY HEADLIGHTS & THE TRANSMISSION DOWNSHIFTED. I PULLED OVER, POWERED OFF THE VEHICLE & RESTARTED. THE VEHICLE HAS DONE THIS SAME OR SIMILAR PROBLEM 4 TIMES NOW. I'VE FILED THE LEMON LAW IN INDIANA, BUT IT WAS DENIED. THE LAST TIME I EXPERIENCED THE ELECTRICAL FAULT, MY SEAT STARTING MOVING FORWARD FOR A FEW SECONDS WHILE I WAS DRIVING THE CAR. THE VEHICLE HAS REGISTERED FAULT CODES EVERY TIME THAT I SAVED. EACH TIME, THE DEALER CAN NOT DUPLICATE & PERFORMS COMPUTER FLASH UPDATES IN HOPES OF CORRECTING PROBLEM. IN MY OPINION, THE VEHICLE IS DANGEROUS TO OPERATE. *TR
