I have been having problems with my 2006 jeep commander it has been stalling while traveling at slow speeds and idling. The vehicle stalls in movement with no warnings.
Vehicle has stalled twice during operation nearly causing severe accidents. Once while exciting off ramp of freeway at around 40 MPH and once while accelerating from a stop. With no power steering or brakes either situation could have been deadly, we were just lucky that the drivers around us were alert and we were able to restart the vehicle and get away safely. The second occurrence happened with my family in the car and frightened us all. The vehicle is currently in the shop, the dealer mentioned no known problems. I came home and did a quick web search and found several postings on various web sites stating the same problem. Some one is going to be killed if they have not already as a result of this. Where is the recall?
Engine stalls and shuts off when driving.
My new 2006 jeep commander now shuts the engine off at will while driving. I was exiting I-4 onto cr579 going just under 40 MPH when the steering went out (so I thought) all gauges were lit I rolled off onto the side of the road once in neutral the truck restarted. I dropped it at courtesy chrysler 3/29 and was informed prior to inspection that the problem had been seen on the commanders and was apparently prevalent on the pacifica model however there was nothing they could do if no code came up so at this point I am expected to pick the truck up tell my wife to drive around my children as if things are a ok. Spoke to the service manager who stated that he is aware of the problem and he would check to see if dc is working on anything to fix it and if not he will tell me(very comforting) the dealership is very very helpful and professional but apparently just don't know what to do.
