Description of the problem	2006 jeep commander their are 3 problems which i believe are all interrelated and probably have something to do with electrical system. Firstly, the car 75% will not start, will not crank, and all you will hear is a clicking noise. Secondly, the car while idling in traffic will lunge forward with higher rpm (with my foot off the accelerator mind you) luckily i have been able to brake in time each time it does that. The only problem is that when i apply the brake the car will then stall and the nonstarting problem will reoccur. Lastly and most dangerously, the vehicle will cut out/stall at highway speeds - 65-70 mph. This has happened numerous times to me (while going around dangerous curves and thank god i have been able to control the vehicle). I have called chrysler numerous times and their only advice is to bring it into a dealership for a 'diagnostic' where they try to replicate the problem. I have done this and believe they keep trying until the problem does not replicate because it does it almost every time with me. Chrysler has a serious problem with this vehicle. It is not only a hassle but a life safety issue. There are thousands of postings on the internet just like mine and chrysler still will no acknowledge the problem. This car need to be 100% recalled and taken off the road as it is a death trap. I would like to sell my car but i cannot morally sell this dangerous car to another unsuspecting customer. Please help with this problem. There are thousands like me who are being told off by chrysler. This problem must be resolved or deaths will certainly occur.
