2007 Jeep commander stalls without warning at idle and road speeds. *tr
Original owner of this vehicle. Has 73,000 on 5.7 hemi engine. Engine blew up on 12/25/2022. Only warning was the gauge went to overheat high red. Stopped vehicle, at fuel station and added more anti freeze. Gauge dropped to while normal range. Got back on highway drove 7 miles and enginle like came on and heat gauge went to high red then dropped to nothing. Got vehilcle off the road and it immediately shut down. Engine blew up. Had vehilcle towed to Jeep Dealership 12/26/2022. Need engine replaced at only 73, 000 miles. Chrysler no longer makes this engine and a rebuilt will have to go into this vehicle. No offer or explanation of why this engine blew up with such low mileage. I was left stranded in 5 degree weather for about 45 minutes along interstate trying to get my roadside assista
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 a
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

Tl*the contact owns a 2007 Jeep commander. While driving at an unknown speed, the vehicle shut off. The road conditions were not a factor. While decelerating, all of the indicators on the instrument panel flashed and the vehicle shut off. The contact was able to maintain control of the vehicle. The failure occurred intermittently and the dealer could not find any failures. After the failure occurred, the vehicle would immediately restart. The vehicle is currently at the dealer and they still cannot determine the cause of the failure. The manufacturer could not seem to troubleshoot the issue. The failure mileage was 33,000.

I own at 2007 Jeep commander with 33,000 miles on it. I was driving 55 on a major highway when my Jeep commander just turned off. I had no acceleration or power brakes. I was lucky to get to the side of the road without hitting anyone. I brought the car into the dealership and they told me they couldn't reproduce the issue and there was no code so they couldn't identify what was wrong with the car. I am suppose to call them if it happens again.. *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 was pulling out onto the highway. As I got up to around 15 MPH, all the shift indicator lights lit up ,around park, neutral, drive and reverse. My acceleration cut off. I couldn't accelerate past, maybe, 20 MPH. The rpms would go up, with no response from the vehicle. I had cars coming up fast behind me and I couldn't go any faster or pull off, till the next turn off. Also, if I'm pulling out, from a stop, sometimes I just lose power and my car crawls on to the road, especially if on a incline. It's really scary and dangerous. *tr

Fabric is defective. Seats stain by just plain water. Looks disgusting and manufacturer wont do anything about it. They say I have to bring in and have it shampooed. I've done that and it doesn't fix the problem. They say since there are no recalls they can't replace fabric until there is a recall issued by NHTSA. I thought my car was under warranty. There are tons of complaints by other Jeep owners with the same problem. We are all being told there is no problem. *tr
I drove to the store and the truck drove fine. I parked and went in the store for about 15 mins. Came out and tried to start the truck. I would start and stop after about 3 seconds. I have changed spark plugs. Wires. Ign. Coils. Checked fuses. The only thing I can tell you after troubleshooting is the right side of the engine has 0 compression. I have looked on forums and it seems like hundreds and thousands of Jeep owners are having this same problem. They say its the wireless control module. I can't seem to find the wcm anywhere to buy, and I haven't seen a recall for this item.

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

In august 2009 a truck dropped a rock from its load a broke (cracked) my windshield on my 2007 Jeep commander. We had the windshield replaced and with in weeks a crack appeared on the top of driver"s side. The windshield was not struck by anything. That cracked windshield was replaced and in november that windshield cracked on the top side of the driver's side. Again nothing struck the windshield. On dec. 1, 2009 third windshield was installed. Late in december, 2009 that windshield developed a crack on the bottom of the driver's side. Again nothing struck the windshield to cause the crack. The auto glass company states that this is unusual but nothing they are doing during the installation would cause this problem to occur three consecutive times. We drove the car for two years, 20

We have major leaks in both side rails right above the dash board. We noticed the leaks a couple of days after our car was delivered. It rains a lot in alaska, so basically our car leaks about everyday! We had taken our vehicle into two different dealers and one dealer said he could not find where the leak is coming from and the other dealer said to bring it back in the summer because it is frozen outside, since we took the vehicle in around october! I can't believe a car that is brand new has leaks! I am glad to see that another person has complained about the side rail leaks, I thought it was just my car! Maybe it should be recalled. I have other complaints about the vehicle regarding the steering wheel, which I have already complained about. But, my car has been at the dealer for two we
