| Description of the problem | I bought my new 2007 commander in spring of 2008. Less than 6 months later i've been having issues with my electrical system. Random lights come on and go off at different times. Most recently i was in chicago on a major freeway and my car stalled when i slowed down for traffic. After two tries it restarted but my dashboard, lights, navigation system were not working. I drove to a parking lot and turned my car off. After letting it sit for about 20 minutes, i restarted it and only the engine light came on this time. My dealership installed a new ignition switch a couple of months ago when the lights were coming on but this did nothing to help. They can't get my car to duplicate what it has done for me so they give my car back to me without repair. This car is not safe and i'm scared to death to drive it. Having it stall in chicago (not familiar with that city- i was only visiting and needed my navigation system to get to where i was going) was very scary for me as i'm a female and 35. I consider myself lucky this time. But please- someone fix my car or take it back from me! This is not a safe vehicle . |
