SINCE THE BEGINNING OF OWNERSHIP, THIS CAR HAS STALLED MANY TIMES (AS WELL AS OTHER VARIOUS AND ODD ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS.) MANY TIMES I CAN TURN THE CAR OFF AND ON AND IT WILL RESTART. THIS DOES HAPPEN IN PARKING LOTS AND HIGHWAY SPEEDS AS WELL. I HAVE ALSO LOST POWER STEERING AND BRAKES WHEN IN PARKING LOTS AT A VERY SLOW ACCELERATION SPEED. I HAVE ALSO HAD AIR BAG WARNING LIGHTS GO ON AND STAY ON THEN RANDOMLY SHUT OFF. THE DEALER HAS TRIED TO HELP RESOLVE BUT IS LIMITED BY CHRYSLER'S ABILITY TO RECOGNIZE THAT THERE IS A PROBLEM. IF THERE IS NO CODE IN THE CARS COMPUTER, THERE IS NO PROBLEM AND CAN'T BE DUPLICATED. IF THE PROBLEM CAN'T BE DUPLICATED, THERE IS NO REPAIR. BUT IT KEEPS HAPPENING OVER AND OVER. I HAVE FILED A COMPLAINT WITH CHRYSLER WITH NO RESOLVE. THE DEALERSHIP HAS HAD MY CAR AND DROVE IT FOR 3 WEEKS TO TRY TO DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. SINCE IT IS SO RANDOM AND THEY JUST DIDN'T GET ENOUGH TIME/MILES IN, THE PROBLEM DIDN'T HAPPEN. IT STALLED AGAIN ABOUT 3 WEEKS AFTER THAT PULLING OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY. THERE HAS BEEN NO REPAIR, BECAUSE CHRYSLER SAYS THERE IS NO PROBLEM. I HAVE BEEN IN THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION WITH A 15 YEAR OLD ON A PERMIT DRIVING WITH ONCOMING TRAFFIC. I HAVE HAD THIS CAR SINCE MARCH 2006 AND THIS HAS BEEN OCCURRING MANY TIMES REPEATEDLY SINCE THEN. NOT ALL HAVE BEEN DOCUMENTED AND BECAUSE IT OCCASIONALLY HAPPENS ON WEEKENDS OR HOLIDAYS, I HAVE NO ABILITY TO GET IT IN TO A DEALERSHIP. IN ORDER FOR THEM TO BE ABLE TO READ A CODE, I WOULD HAVE TO LEAVE THE CAR IN A STALLED POSITION WHEREVER IT OCCURRED AND HAVE IT TOWED DIRECTLY TO THE DEALER. THIS IS HIGHLY IMPRACTICAL AND UNSAFE. ESPECIALLY SCARY AT HIGH SPEEDS ON THE HIGHWAY. I DO NOT WANT TO BE A CASUALTY OF CHRYSLER'S FAILURE TO RECOGNIZE THAT THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF THESE VEHICLES OUT THERE DOING THIS EXACT SAME THING. DO A "GOOGLE" SEARCH SEE THE #'S! SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE!!! *JB

ENGINE
APPROXIMATELY 3 MONTHS AFTER PURCHASING MY JEEP COMMANDER, IT STALLED WITH NO WARNING. ALL THE TRUCKS LIGHTS LIT UP AND THE POWER STEERING WOULD NOT WORK. I WAS ABLE TO START IT BACK UP AND DRIVE. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY WERE UNABLE TO HELP ME AS THEY COULD NOT RECREATE THE ISSUE. SINCE THEN IT HAS HAPPENED AN ADDITIONAL 2-3 TIMES WITH THE DEALERSHIP STILL UNABLE TO HELP ME. ALL TIMES THE TRUCK HAS STALLED OUT AND I HAVE BEEN ABLE TO RESTART AND DRIVE AWAY. THE LAST TIME BEING IN SEPTEMBER OF 2012 WHILE DRIVING ON A FREEWAY AT APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH. *TR
