I OWN A 2006 JEEP COMMANDER. WE LOVE THIS VEHICLE. HOWEVER 2 OF OUR INSIDE DOOR HANDLES HAVE BROKEN. THE DRIVER'S DOOR HANDLE AND BACK SEAT LEFT DOOR HANDLE.. IN SEEING ALL OF THE POSTS REGARDING THIS SAME PROBLEM WITH OTHER JEEP COMMANDER OWNERS IT LOOKS LIKE THIS IS A CONSISTENT PROBLEM. IT IS ABSOLUTELY A SAFETY ISSUE FOR MY CHILDREN, MYSELF AND ANYONE INSIDE THE CAR. MY SON SWITCHED THE CHILD SAFETY LOCK ON THE BACKSEAT (LEFT SIDE) DOOR AS WELL AND NOW BECAUSE THE DOOR HANDLE IS BROKEN WE ARE UNABLE TO SWITCH IT BACK. THEREFORE, THE ONLY WAY THAT PASSENGER CAN GET OUT OF THE CAR IS IF SOMEONE OPENS THE DOOR FROM THE OUTSIDE. DOOR LATCHES/HANDLES BREAKING IS AN ENORMOUS SAFETY PROBLEM AND VIABLE REASON FOR A RECALL. WE ARE REQUESTING AN INVESTIGATION INTO THIS MATTER FOR CONSIDERATION OF A RECALL. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 JEEP COMMANDER. THE CONTACT EXPERIENCED A NO START CONDITION WHEN ATTEMPTING TO START THE VEHICLE. IN ADDITION, THE VEHICLE STALLS WITHOUT WARNING. SHE IS IN THE PROCESS OF HAVING THE VEHICLE INSPECTED TO DETERMINE THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURES. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGES WERE 44,000. UPDATED 7/23/09 *CN THE CONSUMER STATED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS WHEN SHE APPLIED THE BRAKE, THE VEHICLE ACTED AS THOUGH IT DIDN'T WANT TO STOP. ALSO THERE WERE TIMES WHEN THE ENGINE WOULD NOT START AND THE LIGHTS WOULD FLICKER ON AND OFF AND ALL OF THE GAUGES WOULD ACT ERRATIC. THE SUNROOF DRAIN TUBE WAS BLOCKED, WHICH WAS CAUSING WATER TO ENTER THE VEHICLE. UPDATED 07/30/09.*JB
