I have had my jeep for just over 2 years. This has happened 4 times and this is the forth time I've had to have the shift interlock module replaced. The car loses all power, you can't control it. I have been fortunate that it has caused a crash or fire or death but that is because I'm scared to death to take the vehicle anywhere. Last night the lights on the dash all came on - service engine, stability track, ABS, break, etc. The car shifted into prnd and I could not accelerate. Fortunately I could brake and stop before it got ugly. This is unsafe. If you read the jeepcommander.com/forums it is full of similar instances. What has to happen before jeep is made to fix this issue?!?!?!

Vehicle has turned off multiple times at highway speeds causing near fatal collisions, dash board would light up completely and blink on and off as if the key were turned off and on. We make sure that there is sufficient clearance from the key to our knees and we have never accidentally hit the ignition. We have had this happen approx. 15-20 times over the last year and the most recent time last week with both our 8 and 9 year olds in the vehicle on the highway. We need some help on resolving this issue and we are afraid that we will have an accident if this continues to happen.

The car turns off at bumps, or the slightest touch of the ignition switch. It is very dangerous and has caused me to run off the road many times. I have contacted several dealerships over the years and no one will fix it. They say there is no fix. I feel my life is in danger. If the car just turns off at the wrong time, it will kill me and others. Why will no one repair this? Find me a dealership that has the f'ing part before someone dies!!!!!

My jeep had an issue while I was on the highway driving 55 miles per hour. The park drive reverse and neutral lights lit up and I could no longer accelerate. I was rear ended with my children in the car. This is the most dangerous vehicle I have ever owned. I have had I to the mechanic for repair and the mechanic called jeep and jeep was not clear on how to fix it. My mechanic reset my computer and it corrected the problem for a little while but now I was in an accident. I am telling everyone who will listen. This is dangerous. It's a bad product and it needs to be recalled. I know that people need to die before they do something. I am just glad it wasn't one of us tonight.

The vehicle ignition is faulty and under recall. The vehicle will just turn off by itself. I have contacted chrysler jeep but they have not returned my calls to repair this vehicle. I own 2 of these jeep commanders and neither of them are safe to drive. Chrysler is aware that they are not safe but yet will not repair them or provide safe transportation until repair is made.
While I was driving the car automatically shut off and will not turn back on for a while. Other incidents where the ignition will nit work at all, the car can be completely off and the back window will automatically opened. While the car is running all the light begin to turn on and off in the car.
The truck was parked. It started up for a couple of seconds and it shut off. For an hour the car failed to turn back on. Error stated a problem with the park assist. Similar problem 2 months ago and the dealer couldn't reproduce the problem.
