| Description of the problem | 2008 jeep commander 4x4 loses all power at high speeds taken back to reedman-toll dealership x2 in april 2014 and aug 2014, and they cannot identify problem. Reedman told us gas cap could cause engine light to go on, or win module, which was replaced once, may need to be replaced because key chain is too heavy (cannot have multiple keys on chain) and may need tune up. It s soo scary and dangerous now we see there have been numerous complaints filed. Is this caused by the camshaft position sensor? Is there a recall?

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.
