I think it was around april 20th, I would have to check the date for sure..we were driving down the interstate doing about 70 MPH and the veh started losing power.. It made a terrible noise , sounded if you were on the side of the highway and it was vibrating terrible. It has a terrible smell too it and lost total power and had to pull over. My husband got out and looked and there was oil pouring out of the rear end. The car would hardly move at all. We had it towed to the dealership and they advised the the rear differential went out. The jeep had 62000 on it and looks and road like a brand new car till then. We had that repaired 750.00 cost. Nowwwwwwww we have a terrible leak not sure where it is coming from, when it rains we get 3 inches of water in the drivers side floor board, it leaked so bad the wiring is shorting out now. The carpet is getting molded and has a bad smell too it. We can not find the leak what so ever and it is getting rather frustrating having to have your feet in 3 inches of water when trying to drive. The speakers on the left side if shorted out on the satellite radio but will work fine on cd's or am fm. The air condition now only works good on the drivers side and is warm on the passenger side.

I drive a 2006 jeep commander limited v8 and it has a tendency to stall for no reason. It has happened 4 times in the last month and I have read that many others are having this same issue with their commanders of the same year model. Fortunately I have not been involved in an accident due to the stalling, however, it does it at all speeds and when it happens I lose all power.
