JEEP COMMANDER 2008 HEMI 5.7 IGNITION FAULTY AND WILL NOT START PART OF THE TIME AND VEHICLE WILL SHUT DOWN WITHOUT WARNING. MY JEEP HAS THE ABILITY TO CHOOSE WHEN IT WANTS TO START- TURN THE KEY SOLENOID CLICKS BUT WILL NOT START, PLACE SHIFTER IN NEUTRAL STARTS RIGHT UP, OTHER TIMES WHILE IN NEUTRAL ROLL IT BACK AND THE VEHICLE STARTS. AH-HAAA MOMENT THAT EVERY MECHANIC GOES TO IS THAT ITS THE STARTER WHICH I HAVE REPLACED- WRONG 2 TIMES! SAME PROBLEM WITH SECOND NEW STARTER, AH-HAA ITS THE BATTERY- NOPE! ANOTHER $150 DOWN THE DRAIN, RELAYS- NOPE! STILL INTERMITTENT AT BEST, JEEP STARTS WHEN IT WANTS!!! I HAVE TRIED EVERY MIX AND MATCH OF WAYS TO START THE VEHICLE AND IT WILL LITERALLY START WHEN YOUR ON YOUR LAST NERVE OR AFTER YOU WALK HOME, CALL A TOW TRUCK AND GO BACK TO YOUR JEEP - WHA-LAA IT STARTS! YOU ALSO TAKE IT TO THE DEALER WHO CHECKS IT ON THE COMPUTER AND STATES "WE CANT FIND ANYTHING, CANT FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT (AND EVEN THOUGH JEEP HAS A RECALL AND YOUR CAR IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE) THAT WE HAVE TO GIVE YOU YOUR KEYS BACK AND GET YOU ON YOUR WAY". REAL SAFE JEEP- LOOSING FANS FAST. OK VENTING OVER- STILL A FAN OF JEEP BUT THIS IS AN OBVIOUS PROBLEM THAT ACCORDING TO NUMEROUS INTERNET SITES THAT A TON OF COMMANDER OWNERS ARE HAVING. I WISH JEEP WOULD GIVE AN UPDATE AS MY COMMANDER IS SITTING AT A DEALERSHIP IN KETTERING OHIO WITH TECHNICIANS THAT ARE STATING "ITS THE STARTER". MY RESPONSE WAS THAT I WANT THE IGNITION RECALL FIXED, FUNNY THING WAS THAT THEY STATED THAT CHRYSLER DID HAVE ALTERNATE PARTS THAT WOULD WORK (COSTING $450 TO INSTALL) BUT NOT COVERED UNDER THE WARRANTY REPAIR. I STATED MY CASE AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE DEALERSHIP WAS GOING TO CONTACT C.J.D. AND REQUEST A OVERRIDE ON THE COST TO GET MY JEEP STARTING AGAIN.

CAR STARTED BACK UP WITH TURN OF IGNITION. THIS IS THE SECOND INSTANCE OF THIS HAPPENING, FIRST ONE WAS ABOUT 2 YEARS AGO BUT DON'T HAVE INFO. I HAPPENED TO PAY CLOSER ATTENTION THIS TIME GIVEN RECENT HISTORY OF IGNITION RECALLS. *TR

THE REAR PASSENGER SIDE WINDOW MOTOR WENT OUT. WHEN I LOOKED IT UP ON THE WWW IT SHOWED A LOT OF SAME PROBLEMS WITH THIS YEAR. *TR

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, THE ENTIRE DASHBOARD WENT BLACK AND THE CAR WENT COMPLETELY DEAD. THIS HAS HAPPENED 3 TIMES SINCE THE FIRST INCIDENT. NO LIGHTS, POWER STEERING OR BRAKES, NO POWER WINDOWS TO PUT MY HAND OUT TO WAVE CARS AROUND ME. CAR ALSO STALLS IMMEDIATELY UPON STARTING UP.

AFTER CONTACTING THE DEALER AND THE MANUFACTURER ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS, THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE PARTS NEEDED TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE WERE STILL NOT AVAILABLE AND NO ESTIMATED TIME FOR RECEIVING THE PARTS COULD BE GIVEN.

MY VEHICLE STALLED OVER 5 TIMES IN FIRST 10 MINUTES OF OPERATION. ONCE I GOT TO 50-60 MPH THE ENGINE WITH HESITATE AND STALL OUT AT HIGH SPEEDS AND REQUIRE A SHIFT INTO NEUTRAL TO RESTART. THIS HAS BEEN A CONSISTENT ISSUE WITH MY JEEP COMMANDER SINCE THE DAY I PURCHASED IT IN 2012. I HAVE HAD THE VEHICLE IN TO JEEP/CHRYSLER ON 4 DIFFERENT OCCASIONS AND THEY HAVE NEVER FOUND THE ISSUE. I HAD TO LEAVE MY VEHICLE WITH NAPERVILLE CHRYSLER/JEEP/RAM/DODGE ON FRIDAY 6/20 BECAUSE IT WAS NOT DRIVABLE AND DANGEROUS. THEY DETERMINED THAT IT WAS THE CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR. I HAVE READ THAT 100'S IF NOT 1000'S OF JEEP OWNERS HAVE HAD SIMILAR ISSUES AND TO DATE NO RECALL OR FIX. SHAME ON CHRYSLER, SOMEBODY WILL BE INJURED BECAUSE THIS ISSUE. *TR

COMMANDER WOULD NOT RESTART AFTER DRIVING AND STOPPING FOR 20 MINUTES. GOT IT RESTARTED NEXT MORNING THEN WOULDN'T RESTART UNTIL JIGGLED THE GEARSHIFTER IN NEUTRAL. BROUGHT TO DEALER WHO REPLACED FRONT CONTROL MODULE ($ 900). GOT CAR AND WORKED FOR A COUPLE DAYS THEN IT HAPPENED AGAIN. BROUGHT BACK TO DEALER WHO REPLACED THE IGNITION. SAME PROBLEM HAPPENED YESTERDAY BUT TODAY AFTER SITTING FOR 5 HOURS WOULD NOT RESTART. SEEMS LIKE A COMMON ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED BY MANUFACTURE. *TR

IN THE BEGINNING OF DECEMBER, WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AT ABOUT 58 MPH, AN ONCOMING CAR THREW A ROCK UP AND CHIPPED OUR WINDSHIELD. WE HAD THIS CHIP REPAIRED BY OUR INSURANCE COMPANY. A WEEK OR SO LATER, ANOTHER ROCK WAS THROWN UP AND CHIPPED OUR WINDSHIELD AGAIN WHILE GOING AROUND 55 MPH. IN THE BEGINNING OF FEBRUARY WHILE LEAVING OUR HOUSE, ABOUT 2 MINUTES INTO THE DRIVE, OUR PASSENGER SIDE WINDSHIELD CRACKED. (ABOUT A 12+ INCH CRACK.) ON OUR WAY HOME THAT DAY ANOTHER ROCK WAS THROWN AND CHIPPED THAT WINDSHIELD WHILE GOING AROUND 55 MPH. WE CONTACTED THE INSURANCE COMPANY AND HAD THAT WINDSHIELD REPLACED BECAUSE IT COULD NOT BE REPAIRED. NOW ABOUT 3 WEEKS LATER, ANOTHER ROCK WAS THROWN UP AND CHIPPED OUR BRAND NEW WINDSHIELD GOING 60 MPH. I HAVE LOOKED UP OTHER COMMANDER REVIEWS AND SEE THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE. THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN AND QUITE AN INCONVENIENCE FOR COMMANDER OWNERS AND SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE. *TR

PURCHASED A 2008 JEEP COMMANDER IN FEB 2009. IT HAS BEEN SHUTTING OFF AND STALLING WHILE DRIVING DURING THE PAST 6 MONTHS. IN NOVEMBER 2013 (ON THANKSGIVING MORNING) DROVE IT TO THE STORE AND WHEN I CAME BACK IT DIDN'T START. HAS TO CALL A TOW TRUCK, OVER THE HOUR WHILE I WAITED FOR THE TOW TRUCK IT DIDN'T START AND I TRIED NUMEROUS TIMES. TRUCK WAS TOWED TO THE MECHANIC CAUSE THE CHRYSLER SERVICE STATION WAS CLOSED ON THANKSGIVING THROUGH DEC 2ND. THE MECHANIC TRIED TO START THE TRUCK ON 11/28 FRIDAY AND IT STARTED. HE HAS HAD THE TRUCK SINCE 11/28 AND EVERY TIME HE GOES TO START IT, IT STARTS WHICH DOESN'T HELP ME CAUSE HE CAN'T PIN POINT THE PROBLEM. I CALLED CHRYSLER SERVICE STATION AND THEY CAN'T TAKE ME UNTIL 12/11. BIGGER QUESTION IS WHY ISN'T MY TRUCK INCLUDED IN THE CHRYSLER # H03 RECALL? IT IS EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEM AS EXPLAINED IN THE RECALL, YET WHEN I CALL CHRYSLER THEY TELL ME MY 2008 JEEP ISN'T PART OF THE RECALL AND THE 2008 RECALL INCLUDES THE JEEP. IT'S AN AMBIGUOUS DECISION AND LEAVES PEOPLE IN DANGER WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAYS. MY TRUCK HAS A PROBLEM AND IT CAN'T BE FIXED UNLESS IT HAPPENS AGAIN WHILE IN A SERVICE STATION SO IT CAN BE DOCUMENTED BY A COMPUTER. THIS IS A NIGHTMARE AND SOMETHING SHOULD BE DONE BY DODGE / CHRYSLER TO FIX IT WITHOUT ENDANGERING THE LIVES OF MANY PEOPLE. *TR

ON SEPTEMBER 17TH, 2013 AT 10:00AM, I WENT TO START MY 2008 JEEP COMMANDER AND IT WOULD NOT TURN OVER. I WAS GETTING A "DAMAGED KEY" OR "WRONG KEY" ERROR MESSAGE. MY HUSBAND CAME FROM HIS JOB TO ALSO START IT. HE WAS ABLE TO GET THE CAR TO START VERY INTERMITTENTLY. WE DECIDED THAT I WOULD LEAVE WORK TO TAKE THE CAR HOME TO TRY THE SPARE KEY. IT ALSO DID NOT WORK. AT 1:00PM ON SEPTEMBER 17TH, WE WERE ABLE TO GET THE CAR TO THE JEEP DEALERSHIP. THE DEALERSHIP DIAGNOSED THE CAR AS NEEDING A NEW KEY FOB. I LET THEM KNOW THAT I FIRMLY BELIEVED THEY WERE INCORRECT AND THAT IT WAS THE WIRELESS IGNITION MODULE. THEY PROCEEDED WITH THE KEY FOB. ON SEPTEMBER 18TH, I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP TO FOLLOW UP ON THE STATUS OF MY CAR. THEY NOTED THAT IT WAS NOT THE KEY FOB, BUT THE WIRELESS IGNITION MODULE LIKE I SAID THE DAY PRIOR. THE DEALERSHIP LET ME KNOW THE PART WAS ON BACK ORDER AND I WAS NUMBER 103 ON THE WAITLIST. AFTER A LOT OF RESEARCH ON THE INTERNET, IT APPEARS THE ISSUE WITH THE WIRELESS IGNITION MODULE IS VERY COMMON WITH JEEPS. I HAVE NOW CALLED JEEP FOUR TIMES (SEPTEMBER 18TH - TWICE; SEPTEMBER 19TH - TWICE) AND HAVE NOT RECEIVED A SINGLE RETURN CALL TO BRING RESOLUTION TO THIS ISSUE. I NOW HAVE A CAR THAT DOES NOT RUN AND NO ANSWERS ON WHEN TO EXPECT A PART....A PART THAT HAS HAD A LOT OF ISSUES FOR JEEP OWNERS. WHERE IS JEEP'S RESPONSIBILITY TO THEIR CUSTOMERS? THE LACK OF CUSTOMER SERVICE AND ANSWERS IS VERY DISHEARTENING. *TR

LIKE ALL THE OTHERS I'M STILL RISKING EVERYTHING EACH TIME I DRIVE THE ONLY CAR WE OWN AS A FAMILY AND AN WAITING FOR CHRYSLER TO MAKE THE PART AVAILABLE AND PRAY I DON'T HURT MYSELF MY FAMILY OR ANOTHER DRIVER, IF THE SYSTEM DECIDES TO COMPLETELY FAIL. COME ON GET YOUR [XXX] TOGETHER WE NEED PARTS AND A FIX ASAP!!! INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

THE FOB IS A ENGINEERING DESIGN FLAW. I NOW HAVE TO BUY MY 3RD ONE SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR BECAUSE IT DOESN'T WORK PROPERLY WILL NOT LOCK THE DOORS NOW. I HAVE TRIED 2 BATTERIES BUT THIS DOESN'T SOLVE THE PROBLEM.THIS IS MY 4TH COMPLAINT SINCE LAST YEAR. *TR

LAST SUMMER SEVERAL MONTHS AFTER PURCHASING THE NICELY MAINTAINED VEHICLE FROM A REPUTABLE DEALERSHIP I WAS DRIVING ALONG SUBDIVISION STREET AND THAT VEHICLE TURNED OFF. I PUT IT IN NEUTRAL AND I WAS ABLE TO START IT AND GET GAS I THOUGHT IT WAS ODD.-----MAYBE I DID SOMETHING. THE SECOND TIME MY SON WAS DRIVING ON A FIVE LANE BUSY COMMERCIAL STREET AND IT TURNED OFF. AGAIN. I WAS ABLE TO EASILY COACH HIM THROUGH IT AND IT STARTED UP. THIS TIME WE TOLD MY HUSBAND WHO WORKS IN AUTOMOTIVE ENGINEERING. HE TALKED TO SOME PEOPLE AND CAME UP WITH THE IDEA THAT IT WAS THE EXTRA KEYS THAT WERE ON THE IGNITION KEY RING. SEEMED LOGICAL SOMETIMES I DO HAVE A BUNCH OF EXTRA KEYS ON MY RING ----BUT I REMEMBER THINKING THAT I DIDN'T HAVE THE EXTRA KEYS ON THAT OCCASION. IT DIDN'T HAPPEN AGAIN------UNTIL YESTERDAY. DAUGHTER DRIVING----IN A PARKING LOT----THOUGHT SHE RAN OUT OF GAS. NO EXTRA KEYS----NO WARNING LIGHTS-----NOTHING ------JUST STOPS RUNNING. HUSBAND LAST TO DRIVE CAR THE DAY BEFORE----NO WARNING LIGHTS, NO INDICATION OF ANY PROBLEM. DAUGHTER GETS IN CAR CHECKS DASHBOARD INDICATORS FOR GAS ---DETERMINES SHE HAS ENOUGH TO GET HER TO WORK AND DRIVES IN A REMOTE PARKING SPACE. WHILE LEAVING THE LONG LOT HER CAR DIES AT THE EXIT OF THE COUNTY WATER PARK. THE PARK IS CLOSED EVERYONE LEAVES AND SHE IS THERE ALONE THINKING SHE IS OUT OF GAS. HUSBAND COMES PUTS FIVE GALLONS IN STARTS UP WITH NO PROBLEM--DRIVES TO GAS STATION AND THE CAR WILL ONLY TAKE $10. IT WAS NOT OUT OF GAS-------THE ENGINE STOPPED-------FOR NO REASON WHILE DRIVING FOR AT LEAST THE THIRD TIME. I AM SAYING FOR AT LEAST THE THIRD TIME BECAUSE IT MAY HAVE HAPPENED MORE THAN ONCE TO ME-----I ABSOLUTELY REMEMBER THE FIRST TIME, AND THEN WITH MY SON, BUT IT COULD HAVE ONCE OR TWICE AGAIN IN 2013. *TR
