2007 Jeep Commander Complaint Log

AFTER A SCHEDULE TUNE UP, WHERE TWO COIL PACKS WERE REPLACED, AND A PCM SOFTWARE UPDATE WAS PERFORMED OUR 2007 JEEP COMMANDER BEGAN STALLING AT SLOW SPEEDS. USUALLY UNDER 20 MPH OR AT A STOP WHEN THE ENGINE IS AT OR NEAR IDLE SPEEDS, THE ENGINE WILL OBRUPTLY STALL WITHOUT WARNING. THERE IS NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND NO ERROR CODE. OUR LOCAL JEEP DEALER HAS MADE SEVERAL REPAIR ATTEMPTS INCLUDING REPLACING THE PCM, AND SHIELDING THE ENGINE WIRING HARNESS WITH ALUMINUM FOIL. THE PROBLEM CONTINUES. THE KEY MUST BE CYCLED TO THE 'OFF' POSITION TO RESTART THE ENGINE. THE ENGINE HAS STALLED AT HIGH SPEEDS A FEW TIMES MAKING FOR A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION. *TR

THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME. I AM A MOTHER, WIFE , DAUGHTER. THE BAD THING OF THIS SITUATION IS THAT I HAD THIS REPLACED ONCE BEFORE I HAD 31,505 MILES ON IT AND THE EMS ELECTRIC TRANSMISSION SHIFT MODULE HAD TO BE REPLACED . 4 YRS LATER MILEAGE AT 82,000 MILES THE SAME PART HAS TO BE REPLACED. I HAVE CONTACTED CHRYSLER AND ALL THEY CAN SAY WE ARE SORRY THERE IS NOTHING I CAN DO FOR YOU. THIS PART IS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY AND INFORMED THAT THE PART (68021352) WAS NOT INCLUDED IN A RECALL. THIS MALFUNCTIONS HAS CAUSED ME TO NO LONGER FEEL SAFE IN MY CAR. I DON'T WANT TO DRIVE MY CAR WITH MY DAUGHTER IN IT. WITH OUT WARNING THIS HAS HAPPENED ONE TO MANY TIMES. THIS PART SHOULD BE RECALLED WHEN I HAD THE VEHICLE SERVICED BACK IN 2008 I PAID 100.00 NOW TODAY WHEN I HAD IT REPAIRED IT COST 1000.00. FUNNY ISN'T IT THAT OVER 4 YRS THIS PART HAS DOUBLED IN PRICE. AND THE MECHANIC AT CHRYSLER SAYS TO ME OH YEAH I'VE SEEN THIS ALOT ON THIS MODEL. *TR

MY WIFE WAS DRIVING TO CHURCH WITH MY DAUGHTER AND THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING FOR THE 7TH OR 8TH TIME SINCE WE BOUGHT THE VEHICLE. THERE WAS HEAVY TRAFFIC AT 6PM AND IT SCARED HER AND MY 9 YR OLD DAUGHTER TO TEARS. THIS VEHICLE IS A REAL DANGER TO MY FAMILY AND THE LIVES OF OTHERS. IT DOES NOT START AT THIS POINT. *TR

DRIVING HOME FROM THE DOCTORS OFFICE MY JEEP WENT DEAD ON ME. I HAD NO. IDEAL WHAT WAS WRONG WITH IT. IT STARTED BACK UP AND IT HAS HAPPEN TO ME SEVERAL MIRE TIMES SINCE. I TRAVEL WITH MY KIDS AND I'M AFRAID IT IS GOING TO GET US KILLED. PLEASE LET ME KNOW OF ANY RECALLS. *TR

HARD DOWNSHIFT MOSTLY AT LOWER SPEEDS AND SLOWING DOWN. SOMETIMES VERY HARD OTHER TIMES NOT SO HARD BUT DEFINITELY PRESENT. IT HAS SOUNDS LIKE A BANG WITH A JERK ALSO. SOMETHING IS GOING TO BREAK AS THIS IS NOT GOING AWAY. CURRENTLY UNDER WARRANTY AND CAN'T FIX IT. GREAT! WHAT HAPPENS WHEN MY WARRANTY IS UP AND IT FALLS APART AND BIG BUCKS TO FIX FROM THE ABUSE IT TOOK BECAUSE THE DEALERSHIP CANNOT FIND THE PROBLEM. WAS TOLD I MAY HAVE TO LIVE WITH IT. I DON'T FLIPPING THINKS SO. $36,700.00 FOR THIS VEHICLE BRAND NEW. NEVER HAD THIS PROBLEM UNTIL 50K MILES. SOMETHING IS WRONG. ASKING FOR HELP CHRYSLER!! FIX THAT GERMAN TRANSMISSION! BIG PROBLEM GETTING WORSE AND DEALERSHIP HAS HAD IT 4 TIMES IN A MONTH. DOES NOT HAVE A CLUE. THEY SAY IT'S FIXED. I DRIVE AWAY AND WITHIN A DAY IT COMES RIGHT BACK. CALL ME CHRYSLER! *TR

MY 2007 HEMI COMMANDER PURCHASED AUG 30TH 2012 HAD A TRANSMISSION PROBLEM YESTERDAY.. I CAN NOT DRIVE IT ALL AT, IT IS PARKED IN MY DRIVEWAY. WHAT SHOULD I DO? *TR

PROBLEM STARTED WITH VEHICLE LOSING POWER ON ACCELERATION FROM DEAD STOP. IT DID THAT TWICE BEFORE THE "CHECK ENGINE" LIGHT CAME ON AS I WAS PULLING OUT INTO HEAVY TRAFFIC. IMMEDIATELY TOOK IT TO GARAGE WHICH DETERMINED CODE WERE U0404 (IMPLAUSIBLE DATA RECEIVED FROM ESM), P0607 (ECU INTERNAL PERFORMANCE) AND B1A28 (ECM MISMATCH WITH SKM). DEALERS HAD TWO SHIFTER/ESM ASSEMBLIES IN STOCK. THAT TELLS ME THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM AS I HAVE READ ON THE INTERNET THAT IT IS. THIS VEHICLE IS PAMPERED AND ONLY DRIVEN ABOUT 5K PER YEAR, MOSTLY WHEN I GOT TO OUR HUNTING CAMP UP STATE. REPAIR COST $1,130.99. CHRYSLER NEEDS TO PONY UP WITH A RECALL AND FIX THIS ISSUE WITHOUT COST AS WELL AS REIMBURSE THOSE OF US WHO HAVE ALREADY PAID TO HAVE THE DEFECT FIXED. SOMEONE COULD BE INJURED OR KILLED AS A RESULT OF THIS DEFECT. *TR

I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY WITH MY SON GOING AROUND 65 MILES PER HOUR. WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN MY TRUCK JEEP COMM, STARTED SLOWING DOWN, AND ALL THE OTHER CARS WERE PASSING BY ME SPEEDING AND BLOWING AT MY. I PULLED OVER AND RESTARTED THE CAR AND NOW THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND THE TRUCK WONT GO PASS 40 MILES AN HOUR. I HAVE A WARRANTY BUT THE DEALER IS ALWAYS TRYING TO GET OUT OF PAYING IT. *TR

3RD ROW SEAT BELT ON PASSENGER SIDE NEVER WORKED. THE SEAT BELT WOULDN'T LOCK IN. NOW MY 2ND ROW MIDDLE SEAT BELT WILL NOT UNLOCK TO PULL OUT AND BUCKLE. *TR

VEHICLE IS LOOSING POWER, PARK ASSIST LIGHT COMES ON DASH ALONG WITH EVERY OTHER LIGHT!! ALONG DASH IT SAYS SOMETHING ABOUT PARK ASSIST SERVICE?? NOT SURE EXACT WORDS BECAUSE IT POPS ACROSS AND POPS OFF JUST AS QUICKLY.CAR WON'T START RIGHT UP TAKES 1-2 HOURS BEFORE ANYTHING WILL HAPPEN. YESTERDAY WAS THE FIRST TIME THIS HAS HAPPEN. I HAD MY TWO YEAR OLD SON WITH ME.. HAD TO SIT IN 90 DEGREE WEATHER FOR OVER AN HOUR WAITING FOR HELP. I JUST BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE THREE MONTHS AGO BECAUSE EVERYONE RAVED ABOUT HOW GREAT/DEPENDABLE JEEPS ARE.. BUILT TO LAST?!? MAYBE I SHOULD HAVE JUST STUCK WITH FORD... I PHYSICALLY FEEL SICK TO MY STOMACH, HAD I SEEN THAT THIS IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM I WOULD HAVE STAYED AS FAR AWAY FROM THIS TYPE OF VEHICLE AS POSSIBLE!! I WOULD HOPE THAT CHRYSLER WOULD STEP UP AND ADDRESS THE PROBLEM, SEEING THAT ALL OF THESE PEOPLE(MYSELF INCLUDED) BOUGHT THERE PRODUCT WITH THE FAITH THAT IT WOULD IF NOT MEET/EXCEED THERE EXPECTATIONS. *TR

ABOUT THREE YEARS AGO, MY 2007 JEEP COMMANDER 4X4, 4.7L, LIMITED, INEXPLICABLY STALLED WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY AT ABOUT 60 MILES PER HOUR. SINCE THAT FIRST STALLING EPISODE, THIS HAS OCCURRED AT LEAST 30 MORE TIMES. IT HAPPENS IN THE CITY, THE FREEWAY, DURING ACCELERATION, AND UNDER NORMAL DRIVING CONDITIONS. I HAVE BROUGHT THIS VEHICLE TO THE JEEP DEALER ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS. EACH TIME, THEY TELL ME THEY CAN'T DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. FURTHERMORE, THEY TELL ME THAT THIS IS AN ISOLATED PROBLEM THAT THEY HAVEN'T HEARD ABOUT BEFORE. A SIMPLE INTERNET SEARCH SHOWS THAT THIS IS A WIDELY REPORTED PROBLEM AND OWNERS REPORT THE SAME EXPLANATIONS FROM THE DEALERSHIPS.

VEHICLE APPEARED TO HESITATE AND EVENTUALLY STALLED LOOSING POWER. ALL INSTRUMENTATION LIGHTS CAME ON DURING THIS EVENT. DRIVER WAS ABLE TO COAST TO THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY; PLACE THE CAR IN PARK/NEUTRAL; AND RESTART THE ENGINE. THE SAME EVENT HAS HAPPENED AT LEAST 4 OTHER TIMES SINCE THE FIRST AT VARYING SPEED (I.E. 35 TO 65 MPH) AND THERE WERE NO WARNING LIGHTS MAKING THIS A VERY DANGEROUS AND UNPREDICTABLE EVENT. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER AND HE STATED THAT IT COULD BE THE POWER CONTROL MODULE; BUT WAS UNSURE. I'M VERY CONCERNED WITH THE SAFETY OF MY FAMILY. THE SYMPTOM OF THIS PROBLEM (ENGINE STALL) IS UNPREDICTABLE AND IS A RECIPE FOR A SERIOUS AND LIFE THREATENING ACCIDENT. I'VE REVIEWED HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS REPORTING SIMILAR CONDITIONS. THERE NEEDS TO BE A GLOBAL RECALL ON ALL 2007 JEEP COMMANDERS REPORTING THIS PROBLEM TO HAVE THIS ISSUES REPAIRED BEFORE THERE IS A LOSS OF LIFE RESULTING FROM THIS EVENT. NHTSB PLEASE RESPOND TO THIS COMPLAINT AND COMPEL CHRYSLER TO ISSUE A RECALL BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE AND LIFE THREATENING INJURY OCCURS. *TR

AS OF JUNE 8TH 2011 I BOUGHT MY JEEP USED WITH APPROXIMATELY 42000 MILES ON IT SOON AFTER IT STARTED HAVING FILLING ISSUES THEN FOR A WHILE THE ISSUE CEASED NOW ABOUT A MONTH BEFORE DATE OF STALL LISTED ABOVE IT STARTED WITH THE SAME FILLING ISSUES EXCEPT WORSE NOW CAUSING IT TO NOT WANT TO SHIFT INTO GEARS AS NORMAL CAR WOULD, KINDA JERKING IN BETWEEN SHIFTS FROM DIFFERENT SPEEDS AND RPM INCREASE AND DECREASE. IT HAS STALLED ON ME TWICE NOW. THE FIRST TIME ON THE INTERSTATE AT 70 MPH WITH MY 3 KIDS AND PREGNANT WIFE IN THE CAR CAUSING ALL POWER FUNCTIONS TO BE LOST AND WE ALMOST GOT RAN OVER BY A TRANSFER TRUCK TRYING TO GET TO THE SHOULDER OF THE ROAD. I HAD IT LOOK AT AND THE THROTTLE BODY AND INTAKE CLEANED OF CARBON DEPOSITED AND NOW TODAY JUNE 12TH 2012 IT STALLED AGAIN GETTING OFF THE INTERSTATE HEADING TO MY WORK. STILL FILLING HIGH AND LOW AND STALLING AND JERKING BETWEEN THE NATURAL SHIFTING OF THE TRANSMISSION. *TR

WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD THE JEEP SHUT OFF, COMPLETE LOSS OF POWER, BRAKES AND STEERING THEN AFTER A FEW SECONDS TURNED BACK ON. THIS HAD HAPPENED 4 TIMES WITHIN 10 MILE. THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TIME THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED. I HAD TAKEN IT TO THE DEALERSHIP SO THEY COULD PLUG IT INTO THEIR COMPUTER. THE RESULTS WERE NEGATIVE AND COULD NOT FIND ANY PROBLEMS. SEARCHING ONLINE, THERE ARE SEVERAL OTHER JEEP OWNERS THAT ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL ON THESE VEHICLES BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT OR KILLED. *TR

MY 2007 JEEP COMMANDER STALLS DURING LENGTHY TRIPS OF 100 MILES OR MORE AT SPEEDS BETWEEN 50 - 70 MPH. EACH TIME IT STALLED I WAS ON A MAJOR INTERSTATE AND HAD TO DRIFT TO THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY TO RESTART THE VEHICLE. THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED WAS EARLY SUMMER DURING A TRIP FROM GEORGIA TO LOUISIANA AND IT DID IT AGAIN DURING A SECOND TRIP IN JULY. I THOUGHT MY BATTERY MAY HAVE HAD A BAD CELL AND WAS PROVIDING THE NEEDED POWER TO THE VEHICLE. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH THIS EVENING ONLINE I SEE THIS IS A BIG PROBLEM FOR OTHER COMMANDER OWNERS NATIONWIDE. I PLAN TO TAKE IT TO THE DEALER THIS WEEK. *TR

PURCHASED THE 2007 JEEP COMMANDER 4X4 2 WEEKS AGO. WHEN I STARTED THE JEEP THE SERVICE PARK ASSIST FLASHED AND WENT AWAY, I HEADED DOWN MY DRIVEWAY ONTO THE HIGHWAY AND COULD NOT ACCELERATE MORE THAN 20 MILES PER HOUR, THE JEEP WOULD NOT SHIFT GEARS. I PULLED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD FOR SAFETY BECAUSE OF TRAFFIC, TURNED THE JEEP OFF, STARTED IT AGAIN AND MERGED BACK ONTO THE HIGHWAY AND THE JEEP AGAIN COULD NOT GO MORE THAN 20 MPH, PUT ON HAZARDS AND BROUGHT TO MECHANIC. LEFT THE JEEP RUNNING, GOT BACK INTO TO REVERSE AND THE IT WOULD NOT REVERSE, AT THIS TIME THE PRND WAS LIT UP ON THE DASH BOARD. STILL WAITING TO HERE WHAT THE PROBLEM IS MECHANIC CAN NOT DUPLICATE. VERY SERIOUS SAFETY PROBLEM AS I USE TO TRANSPORT MY CHILDREN. *TR

WHILE DRIVING CAR WILL FOR NO REASON LOOSE POWER, YOU CAN PRESS GAS BUT CAR WILL NOT GO FASTER THAN ABOUT 15-20 MPH, THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN CAR JERKS AND REGAINS POWER... A FEW MONTHS WILL GO BY AND CAR WILL DO AGAIN. WHEN THIS FIRST HAPPENED ME AND MY FAMILY WERE ON I*4 AND CAR LOST POWER ON A ROAD THAT IS 65 MPH. *TR

CAR SHUTS OFF SITTING AT IDLE (STOP LIGHT) I'VE OWNED THIS CAR FOR LESS THAN A MONTH AND IT HAS STALLED IN TRAFFIC 4 TIMES!

ALL LIGHTS LIGHT UP AND CAR LOSES ALL POWER. *TR

THE VEHICLE WILL LOSE ALL POWER WHILE DRIVING AND STALL. NONE OF THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS WILL WORK AND SOMETIMES THE CAR WILL NOT START BACK UP. THE RECALL FOR THE IGNITION SWITCH WAS REPLACED BUT THIS PROBLEM STILL HAPPENS. IT HAS BEEN RETURNED TO THE DEALERSHIP SEVERAL TIMES FOR THIS ISSUE WITH NO ACTUAL FIX FOR THE PROBLEM. WHEN THE SYSTEM FAILS, ALL THE DASH LIGHTS AND FAULTS LIGHTS FLASH ON AND OFF BEFORE SHUTTING DOWN. THIS HAS HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING AS WELL AS NOT STARTING AFTER TURNING OFF THE VEHICLE. IT HAS BEEN AN ONGOING ISSUE NOW FOR A FEW YEARS NOW WITH NO FIX FOR THE PROBLEM SINCE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 JEEP COMMANDER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHEN DRIVING AT LOW SPEEDS BELOW 10 MPH, THE VEHICLE WOULD SUDDENLY STALL. THE FAILURE OCCURRED ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS. IN ADDITION, THE CONTACT INDICATED THAT THE TRANSMISSION OVER TEMPERATURE WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER, WHO INDICATED THAT A FAULTY STARTER CAUSED THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 08V20300 (POWER TRAIN). THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 60,000.

SLOWING DOWN AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT AND THE VEHICLE STALLED. AGAIN COMING CLOSE TO CAUSING A MAJOR ACCIDENT BECAUSE OF SO MUCH TRAFFIC., THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT START AGAIN FOR ABOUT 30 MINUTES CAUSE GRID LOCK AND CHAOS. ALL I COULD HERE WAS A CLICKING SOUND WHEN TRYING TO START IT. THIS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES AFTER THAT AND THE LAST TIME I ENDED UP HAVING TO STEER INTO A STEEP DITCH TO AVOID REAR ENDING AN 18 WHEELER. I HAD MY KIDS WITH ME AT THE TIME. I CONTACTED THE DEALER AND GOT NO HELP. *TR

CAR STALLS WHEN DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. THE DRNP DASH LIGHTS ALL LIGHT UP AT THE SAME TIME AND THE CAR SHUTS DOWN FOR A COUPLE SECONDS, THEN IT RESUMES. IT HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES RANDOMLY IN THE PAST. TODAY, IT STALLED 3 TIMES ON THE HIGHWAY ON MY HOME FROM WORK. I HAD TO PULL OVER AND RESTART THE CAR. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT FINALLY CAME ON TODAY. THE SEATBELTS ALSO HAVE BROKEN SEVERAL TIMES. I'VE REPLACED 2 SEPARATE SEATBELT CASES (THE OUTER COVER) IN THE PAST YEAR. THE MIDDLE, SECOND ROW SEATBELT IS LOCKED UP AND CURRENTLY UNUSABLE. WHEN I BOUGHT THE CAR, THE FIRST TIME I PUT UP THE 3RD ROW SEAT, THE SEATBELT WAS CRUSHED BY THE SEAT AND BROKEN. AND, THE BACK SEATBELT IS CURRENTLY BROKEN AGAIN (WHICH I HAVE ONLY USED THE 3RD ROW SEATS TWICE SINCE OWNING THE CAR), I PLAN TO HAVE THEM REPAIR IT AGAIN WHEN I TAKE THE CAR IN TO GET THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CHECKED :( *TR

I HAVE HAD SEVERAL PROBLEMS WITH THE 2007 JEEP COMMANDER. AT TIMES IT WILL NOT START. RECENTLY IT HAS LOST POWER/SPEED WHEN ACCELERATING. I WAS MERGING ONTO THE HIGHWAY AND IT SUDDENLY LOST POWER AND WOULD NOT GO ABOVE 20MPH. THE ENGINE HAD A STRANGE NOISE TO IT. I HAVE HAD IT "FIXED" MULTIPLE TIMES BUT NOTHING SEEMS TO STOP THE PROBLEMS. IT IS THE WORST CAR I HAVE EVER OWNED. *TR

APRIL 12 2012, ON SEVERAL OCCASSIONS THE CAR STALLED, TWO TIMES WHILE STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT AND TWO OTHER TIMES WHILE TURNING A CORNER AT ABOUT 15 MPH, ALL FOUR WERE IN HEAVY TRAFFIC. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 JEEP COMMANDER. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING 35 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO COAST TO THE SHOULDER AND RESTART THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE THEN FUNCTIONED AS NORMAL. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER, WHERE THEY STATED THAT THE POWER TRAIN CONTROL MODULE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGES WERE 100,000. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 JEEP COMMANDER. WHILE TRAVELING 5 MPH, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHO ADVISED THAT THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGES WERE 43,000.

THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED I WAS DRIVING DOWN INTERSTATE GOING ABOUT 75 MPH. ALL OF A SUDDEN THE CAR JERKED AND EVERYTHING SHUT DOWN FOR ABOUT A SECOND BUT THE CAR KEPT GOING. CRUISE SHUT OFF AND THERE WAS A "DING". JUST LIKE WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF IT JUST DIED FOR A SECOND. THEN, MY SON WAS DRIVING THE VEHICLE AND IT DID THE SAME THING EXCEPT THIS TIME IT COMPLETELY DIED. IT HAS HAPPENED MANY TIMES SINCE AND DYING COMPLETELY AROUND 6-7 TIMES. DOESN'T MATTER IF YOU'RE GOING 25 OR 75. IT CAN HAPPEN WHENEVER. ONE OF THE TIMES MY DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING ON INTERSTATE AND IT COMPLETELY STOPPED. SHE WAS IN THE LEFT LANE WITH A DIESEL IN THE RIGHT LANE. SHE ENDED UP STUCK IN THE DITCH. THANKFULLY NO ACCIDENT OR INJURIES. HAVE HAD 3 MECHANICS LOOK AT IT AND STILL DON'T KNOW WHAT IS WRONG WITH IT. *TR

AS I WAS DRIVING MY COMMANDER, IT STARTED TO SPUTTER AND SHIFT GEARS ERRATICALLY AND THEN DIED. THE ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON AS I PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. AFTER I TURNED THE CAR OFF COMPLETELY, I TRIED TO RESTART THE CAR TO CONTINUE TO WORK. AS SOON AS I PUT THE VEHICLE IN GEAR, IT STALLED ONCE AGAIN. ON THE THIRD TRY, I WAS ABLE TO PLACE MY VEHICLE IN GEAR AND COMPLETE MY DRIVE TO WORK BUT THE ENGINE LIGHT REMAINED ON. THIS SAME SCENARIO HAS HAPPENED FIVE TIMES SINCE THE ORIGINAL INCIDENT. *JS
