ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING
MY HUSBAND AND I HAD JUST BOUGHT OUR FIRST NEW VEHICLE A 2007 JEEP COMMANDER. IT ONLY HAD 65 MI. OR SO ON IT WHEN WE BOUGHT IT. I ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT. THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN WHEN I WAS PULLING INTO A PARKING SPOT WITH MY 20 MONTH OLD LITTLE GIRL MY CAR STALLED. I ALMOST HIT A LINCOLN NAVIGATOR! I WENT TO THE CAR DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THEY COULDN'T FIND A PROBLEM. THAT WAS AT 1400 MILES! THEN AT 3700 MI. I WAS IDLING AT A RED LIGHT AND MY CAR STARTING SHAKING REALLY BAD! THEN I ACCIDENTALLY PUT MY CAR IN 4TH GEAR AND THEN IT WOULDN'T GO BACK INTO DRIVE. IT HAS BEEN AN AWFUL EXPERIENCE OWNING THIS COMMANDER! THE CAR DEALERSHIP ALSO TOLD ME THE SEATS WERE STAIN RESISTANT AND THEY ARE NOT BY ANY MEANS I HAVE TAKEN MY CAR UP CLOSE TO 15 TIMES TO HAVE APPLE JUICE TAKEN OUT OF MY "STAIN PROOF" CLOTH SEATS. I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS CAR TO ANYONE!!!!!*JB
