 Description of the problemThere are reports all over the internet about this same issue with jeep commanders. This needs to be reviewed for recall and is a safety issue. The check park assist warning started to flash intermittently while the vehicle was in operation. When this occurred, all gear indicators on the dash would light up at the same time. There was initially no other indication that anything was wrong with the car. Eventually, the check engine light came on and the dealer diagnosed it as needing a new transmission control module. The same events occurred within 2 weeks of installing the new module. Dealer replaced it again and said the part was faulty. The same events occurred again with the next month. Dealer was unable to find a problem and reset the computer/wiped the error. It occurred again and progressed to the car loosing accelerating power while driving and/or shifting in to lower gears for no reason. New dealer this time, says that it is the shifting control module. Review of the issue on-line shows a long history of this problem even though i am fortunate enough not to have it happen within a few years of ownership. This is a safety issue that can cause injury to passengers when the car shifts down at highway speed and/or accidents because the driver no longer has control of acceleration.
