The WIN module malfunctioned not allowing my vehicle to restart after stalling on the interstate. Since then, I have not been able to start my vehicle. Apparently there-€™s a recall on this exact same win module for the exact same year make and model of my vehicle but yet I was informed that my vin wasn-€™t qualified under the recall for some reason.
My vehicle just quits when I am driving. No power and the engine just shuts off. Our mechanic has suggested there has been recall on 2008 Jeep Commanders. But when I contacted the dealership were we purchased the vehicle they informed us our vehicle is not on the list.
Recall P57 was never fulfilled on my vehicle. I filled out the recall card and mailed it but never heard anything and my vehicle seems to be having issues from what this recall entailed. Please advise how I can get this recall fixed on my vehicle. I've had off and on issues with it at starting and have had it in the shop with no true resolution and Sunday 10/25 it started again. Thanks, angie
My Jeep Commander has had 3 different mechanical diagnostics to diagnose why the vehicle shuts off continually while in motion or stopped. The ignition switch was recently replaced as a part of a recall and this has not solved the issue either. The Jeep will randomly shut off, and all power steering is loss, causing a very unsafe condition until it can be put into park or neutral and turn back on. My last diagnostic showed the auto repair shopped a computer read of 'running' while the truck had turned off several times right in front of them. I have spent a large amount of money on diagnostics and no mechanic has been able to find an answer even after the ignition switch was replaced as part of an original recall. I was told by all three auto repair shops that they know there is a stalling/shut off issue but they are unable to fix it because there is no indicator of why through thorough diagnostics. They also noted that when the Jeep shuts off the dash lights do not turn on as it would normally when a vehicle shuts off. When the Jeep has shut off on me driving down a major road at 40 miles per hour my only indicator that my vehicle has shut off is that my steering wheel locks up as the Jeep begins to slow down. The new ignition switch has not remedied the shut off issue and no mechanical shop has been able to diagnose and other reason why. Essentially my Jeep Commander is very unsafe with no solution able to found. I researched further and found that there was a front control module recall on some 2008 Jeep Commanders issued. I believe my Jeep Commander's VIN may need to be added to this recall for this make and model because the ignition switch recall has not fixed the issue and no mechanical diagnostic has been able to answer why. Everything else is completely sound with the Jeep Commander except this issue of shutting off while on, in motion or parked.
Jeep will not start. It displays transmission over temp for a split second as you turn on the key. The Jeep sat overnight in the driveway before trying to start it the next morning, and it did not start.
I bought my vehicle at a Nissan dealership and didn't know that it leaked into the cabin on the driver's side foot well because of the drain tubes for the sunroof. I took it in they said it was fixed but the very next time it rained it was soaked again and by then I found out what is really going on with the vehicle. It's not that I don't want to be a good consumer and not make any waves, but I don't want to keep paying for a leaking vehicle, and don't know what to do. What happens if I go to step out of the vehicle and slip and fall, I have feet ankle problems as it is and it's detrimental to my health should that happen.
For some reason off and on since we have owned the Jeep bought it new we have had occurrences when the vehicle wouldn't start. Just in 2016 we had to replace the solenoid and the starter. Now in 2017 having to do it again. The problem is when the solenoid gets to hot the truck doesn't want to start after running for a while. And also having issues with the esp bas lights coming on which has to be electrical. I was told to contact you since many other Chrysler owners and Jeep owners have had the same issues. Thank you
My Commander keeps shaking violently at freeway speed. Have timken it to get struts/shocks replaced, balanced, and did an alignment and rotation and it still does it. Very dangerous and I have kids and need my Jeep to Transport thm from point a to point but
While relocating and driving on a major interstate highway, the pre-owned vehicle with 87,684 at time of purchase, the 4 wheel drive system came on by itself and stayed in high and is still in high and if the vehicle is driven will need to be disconnected. The power steering locked, shredded belts. Then, the engine ran hot for no more than a mile on an interstate highway with no warning. Due to the power steering locking up, combustion caused head gasket problems.
I received a recall on my 08 Commander last October and have waited for an update. The key sticks in the ignition, will not let loose and stays running. I had it diagnosed May 2015 per request of the Jeep customer care and have spoken with Jeep care and customer service multiple times since then. After the diagnostic in sterling co they talked to Jeep and it was decided it is the recall however there is no solution. I explained the issue is getting worse and we have 3 kids we Transport this is not a safe vehicle. I was told there was a priority email sent and I would get a loaner or a solution since the vehicle is unsafe. Since then I have been hung up on over 4 times from Jeep customer care and have been told my "agent" would like another diagnostic at no cost to me. I have not received any calls back from my designated agent with Jeep and continue to be told by customer care that they are sorry but there is no parts available to fix the ignition switch. I called 877-426-5337 for the customer service as well as other numbers given to me. The Jeep was diagnosed at wolf auto 970-522-0864. All I have asked for is a way to make the vehicle safe and for us to be able to drive it. It has come to a point where we try not to take it anywhere because we don't know if the key will come out or not. Jeep customer service has been very poor with their assistance and keep putting me on the back burner.
My 2008 Jeep Commander sport 4X4 has been running fine. I parked the Jeep, but it in park and turned it off. When I come back 3 hours later my car does not start. I was able to unlock my car by using the remote, and the lights turned on when I opened the door. I put the key in turned it and the car would not make a single noise, and "damaged key" prompts on the dash and quickly disappears. I needed to move my car so I was able to get a jump bc of the position the car was in. I put my foot on the break and tried to put it in neutral and it would not let me. My friend was able to position his truck to jump start mine. Again, nothing worked.
Jeep Commander 2008 hemi 5.7 ignition faulty and will not start part of the time and vehicle will shut down without warning. My Jeep has the ability to choose when it wants to start- turn the key solenoid clicks but will not start, place shifter in neutral starts right up, other times while in neutral roll it back and the vehicle starts. Ah-haaa moment that every mechanic goes to is that its the starter which I have replaced- wrong 2 times! same problem with second new starter, ah-haa its the battery- nope! another $150 down the drain, relays- nope! still intermittent at best, Jeep starts when it wants!!! I have tried every mix and match of ways to start the vehicle and it will literally start when your on your last nerve or after you walk home, call a tow truck and go back to your Jeep - wha-laa it starts! you also take it to the dealer who checks it on the computer and states "we cant find anything, cant find anything wrong with it (and even though Jeep has a recall and your car is unsafe to drive) that we have to give you your keys back and get you on your way". real safe Jeep- loosing fans fast. Ok venting over- still a fan of Jeep but this is an obvious problem that according to numerous internet sites that a ton of Commander owners are having. I wish Jeep would give an update as my Commander is sitting at a dealership in kettering Ohio with technicians that are stating "its the starter". my response was that I want the ignition recall fixed, funny thing was that they stated that Chrysler did have alternate parts that would work (costing $450 to install) but not covered under the warranty repair. I stated my case and was informed that the dealership was going to contact C.J.D. and request a override on the cost to get my Jeep starting again.
Cooling system.... hoses getting tight and water not circulating. Top ratiorter cap cold. Also saying check gauges. Idels for 15 minutes then hoeses get tight hot gauge goes all the way over into the red.
My adult children's 2008 Jeep Commander engine has quit running, while they are driving, eight times in the past 4 months. (7/26/2010 thru 11/26/2010). The last time the engine quit running my son was driving the car, he was able to restart the engine with the car in drive (turning the key multiple times). They have had many issues with warning lights flickering and/or staying on. They have taken the Jeep to waldorf Chrysler Jeep dealer 8 times due to engine failure. They have repaired module wiring, replaced the starter and turned the core, performed routine check up and maintenance, run/start circuit repaired, throttle and gasket repaired/replaced twice, currently in the repair shop. Dealer would only provide rental car if the kids paid for it. Also took the Jeep to Dodge dealership in waldorf 8/2010, they could not find a problem.
