| Description of the problem | Hello, my 2006 jeep commander started stalling out over a year ago and has stalled on me on and off various times at different speeds but usually at a higher rate of speed, which has been very scary. I have chosen not to drive the vehicle anymore and now it is sitting in my driveway and i am driving a 1991 honda because i cannot afford to buy a new car at this time. I just paid this jeep off and now i cannot drive the vehicle. The dealer fixed the one recall on the vehicle called the front control module and it ran fine for a couple of weeks and now once again the car stalled out while i was headed to a camping trip with my kids a couple months ago going 50 mph and almost caused an accident. I was almost hit by a semi and several cars were honking and trying to avoid my jeep. I lose all power steering and there are no notifications that the car will stall so it is very scary and dangerous for me and my children. I am so upset that i cannot drive the car and feel safe. I have contacted jeep and they have a recall for 2006 jeep commanders that covers up to january 2006 and my vehicle was made in march so they told me there is nothing they can do. The recall was for the pcm which my car has the same code on the diagnosis but now they are telling me to take it to the dealer and i have to pay for this. I really hope that this situation can be resolved by jeep stepping up and taking care of this issue for the safety of people. |
