CarComplaints.com Notes: Whenever a new product is introduced, there's bound to be some problems. And man oh man, does the 2006 Commander have some problems.
It's the plight of the 1st-generation adopter: you get the newest and shiniest in exchange for a handful of issues that get ironed out in future versions. But what happens when that handful of issues becomes a bucketload? The 2006 Commander has quality control issues like the door handles breaking off and the sunroof leaking. But what's truly worrisome is the electrical problems like the vehicle shutting down unexpectedly, gauges going crazy or the cruise control having a mind of its own.
Bottom line: if you want a Jeep Commander, you're better off looking at a later model year.

Love this truck, but has many issues. Truck overheated, blew the water pump and the gaskets. Now it’s stuck in a gear. I don’t know which one yet, but at 98K miles I’m disappointed. To all fellow commander owners, change your thermostat. There is currently a recall out for the transmission issue of choosing a gear to stay stuck in, but we all have to call the Department of Transportation Vehicle Safety at 888-327-4236 to ensure that all 2006 Jeep Commanders are repaired.
