My husband and I financed a used 2006 Jeep Commander while he was home on 2 weeks of leave from and 18 month tour in afghanistan. About a week after we took the car home it stalled out for the first time. A week after that it did it again and we immediately pulled off the road and took it to the closest dealer which was luckily less than 2 miles down the road. He hooked it up to diagnostics and told us something about the computer recording a freak reading of barometric pressure which is what made the car shut off and that it shouldn't happen again. After my husband returned to afghanistan to fight terrorism for the us army I was driving home after dark from out of town and my headlights started to flicker...the frequency of this kept increasing and each time this happened the interior lights would also flicker and it became increasingly difficult to have the lights come back on. Luckily I got home before they quit working completely. Today, I was at the end of a drive to visit family and the car stalled for the third time in less than a month! I lost brakes, steering, lights, ac, and radio. Traffic was heavy and I narrowly avoided an accident!!!! after about a minute, I was able to pop the car into neutral and get it started again. Thank god my two children were not in the car! I got to my relatives house and began researching this problem and found numerous complaints on the internet, something we were not made aware of when buying the vehicle. The fact that this has happened to hundreds of other families makes me livid. My husband is getting shot at everyday for his country and its okay for an american manufacturer to sell faulty vehicles to people"!?!"!

My 2006 Jeep Commander continually stalls, threatening the lives of whoever is in the car. There is no warning. Suddenly there will be a complete loss of control over the vehicle. No warning lights, no bells, sounds, whistles...nothing! the only way to remedy is to turn vehicle off and restart. This turns in to a life threatening incident when the traffic behind you is unaware that you are in fact stalled. The dealership has no updates or complaints of this problem (ya, right) and drives it around the block...with no incidences occurring. If they think it's going to happen while they're driving the vehicle, they're wrong. I 'm risking my families lives every time we get in the car. It's the most expensive piece of junk I've ever owned! visibility out the rear window when the 3rd row seats are up is just about zero. This is extremely dangerous. You can't see cars, kids, or your neighbors house when you're trying to see what's behind you. Driver's side locks on it's own. Luckily the passenger doors remain unlocked, so I haven't locked myself out...yet.

My 2006 Jeep Commander V-8 4.7L, stalled 4 times. It stalled quickly with no warning, the worst being on the highway last month. The engine cut out, I had to put in neutral or P ark to start the car again. Very scary. I called the Jeep dealer and told them of the problem, the asked if a check engine light was on I told them no. They said nothing could be done, keep driving it. Also, had a problem that the service 4X4 light and esp light came on for no reason when turn ing the car off then back on it sometimes going away. Will usually not happen for more than a few minutes, not enough time to get to the dealer to solve the problem.

I have a 2006 Jeep Commander. I was driving my 7 year old son to camp. I was driving about 45 mph on a 2 lane road. Suddenly and without any warning the engine, as well as all electrical items completely shut off. I also lost all assist functions. When I was applying the brakes I got the noise that usually you hear when the ABS system has taken control. After pulling to the side of the road I restarted the car and the engine warning light came on. After dropping my son off I attempted to restart the car. I had no instrument panel functions (gas gauge, water temp, odometer, etc.). I will be taking the car in to the dealership on 7/5/2007 for analysis.

- Fredericksbrug, VA, USA

My 2006 Jeep Commander has stalled out numerous times. The service department at the dealership I purchased it from and the jeepcorp. Have no answer nor a fix for the problem. I am afraid that this vehicle is unsafe T drive. One day I was pulling off a parking lot and tried to stop to keep from hitting a vehicle and still ened up hitting the persons fender. Not sure if my vehicle stalled at that time or not because it all happened so fast.
