| Description of the problem | My 2006 jeep commander v8 has stalled 4 times since buying it in april of 2007. The first time was when i was backing up in reverse in my driveway. The second time a few months later, after backing up, put the jeep in drive and it stalled. The third time was in august, i had backed up in my parking lot at work put the jeep in drive and was going about 15 mph and the jeep stalled. The last time was august 28, 2007, i was making a left hand turn into mcdonald's with my 8 month old, 6+7 year old children as well as being 5 months pregnant, the jeep stalled, i lost my brakes and power steering with oncoming traffic heading towards me. It took i my strength to turn the wheel tp get out of the road. I have had the jeep to the dealership to have this looked at 3 times. The last in august before the 4th episode. They had my jeep for 4 days and could not find anything wrong with it. I have called jeep and made a complaint. Their response was to take it back to the dealership. I am very frustrated and feel unsafe with my children in this vehicle and no one seems to care or want to help. After looking at this list of complaints on this website on 2006 jeep commanders stalling, something needs to be done. *jb |
