| Description of the problem | 2007 jeep commander stalling while idling at a stop or parked and in idle. The vehicle idles rough and begins to stall. Sometimes it recovers but when it does it accelerates and lunges forward. If my foot was not firmly on the brake, i would slam into the car or any object in front of me. I have 34,000 miles on it now. It has been occurring for over a year now (12-15k miles). I purchased the jeep from a jeep dealer after it had been owned for a year and had 13,000 miles on it. I do not know if this was a problem for the previous owner but it is a continuing problem for me. It has been to the dealer 5 times for the problem and yet to be diagnosed or resolved. It is a dangerous driving situation and i have three young children in my car on a daily basis. I have no financial means to get a new car so forced to drive this unsafe one!!! Please make chrysler recall and fix the 2007 commander for this unsafe stalling/accelerating problem!! I am putting march 13, 2010 as the incident date but it has happened so many times in the past year i could not even begin to remember them all. |
