The vehicle lost all power due to the ignition failure while driving down the road. This has happen multiple times. Chrysler has acknowledged a problem with the ignition switch design and sent out recall (p41/the federal safety agency 14v‑438) in oct of 2014. They have not developed the part yet to fix this recall. The dealerships don't want to touch it until the part is available. The car will sometimes crank and sometimes will not due to the faulty switch. I have contacted and filed a complaint with chrysler and get the impression they are dragging their feet on this recall. They claim to be developing the part, but that has been 9 months. When the vehicle shuts off going down the road all power is lost including power to the airbags.

The car stops when it wants rather if I'm in traffic, stop sign, red light, or interstate.. The wheel and the brakes will lock up. I've been calling chrysler the 1800 number and local dealerships such as picayune ms and slidell la about the situation but nobody seems to care!!! They said the parts isn't in and that its the ignition switch so I payed out of my pockets for the ignition switch and got it put on with the money that I didn't have to spare but obviously that wasn't the problem.. Now my car engine is making raggling and tractor noises. Barely want to start.. Basically I don't have transportation to or from work and school for the fall!!!!!!!!! Thanks a lot chrysler...

Since I purchased my jeep commander I have experience total electrical failure while driving on many occasions. This happens approximately every 6 months. While driving in speeds varying from 20 - 70 miles an hour my car will lose power. Prior to losing power all dash lights, tachometers, hazards, warning lights and performance indicators will flash repeatedly, very quickly. Within moments of the flashing lights my gas will shut off, my brake system completely fails and my steering will completely lock up. I have absolutely no way of controlling my vehicle in any manner. Several times my vehicle has stopped in major traffic. Numerous times other vehicles have had to make drastic maneuvers to avoid crashing into my car. I have almost been rear ended and was nearly t-boned when my car died as I attempted to make a left hand turn. In the event that I am hit, my airbags have no power and will not deploy. My windows and locks have no power. My children and I could be trapped in my car. I have taken my car to the jeep dealership that I purchased it at and they refuse to fix it and will not provide a replacement vehicle that is not a death trap. I have called the chrysler recall assistance center and was told no parts are available and have no indication as to when or if there ever will be. I cannot sell my car because no one will buy it knowing it has such major safety issues. This is the only vehicle I own. I have 3 children that drive in this car everyday. One of my children has cancer and I need a safe reliable car to take him for chemotherapy treatments. Chrysler is not accepting any responsibility even though I was mailed a recall notice. Please help!!!!!

I was coming to a stop and my car shut off on its own while in "drive". Over the past several months this has happened on several other occasions where my car just shuts off on its own while driving, usually while driving at a low speed under 15 mile/hr. On other occasions I have lost control over my power steering and the steering wheels locks up, again usually at a low speed. I know there is a recall on my vehicle because we received a letter in the mail but when we contacted our dealer (ansonia fitspatrick jeep) we were told the part was not yet available and that we needed to wait until we received a other notice / letter when the part comes in. This is very concerning and unsafe!!!!

Bought the car 5 months ago. I started my car to go to work, everything started on except the car. Took out the key and try to turn it back on, nothing. Later on the day, my husband turn the car on and it came back on. The next day, the car wouldn't start, but again the radio, the lights, windshield wipers are on, except the car.

Right after purchasing this car in 10/2011 the jeep would randomly cut off or lose power, not sure if this an electrical issue. Due to the randomness of the issue, they could not duplicate the problem when I brought in the car. After going back to the dealership the manger at the time wrote/promised that his establishment (reliable auto) would repair/fix the issue if it occurred again (within a year or 12,000 miles). After a years time the issue still continued, but now I cannot bring it in to be fixed w/out being charged. Whenever I pushed down on the pedal to accelerate , the car could not accelerate past 25- 30 MPH! This would occur while I was already in motion, or at a light. Felt like the car was, "stalling" and the service park assist message would appear. I would try to shift the gear but nothing changed, the car still would not accelerate. This happened on multiple occasions. Sometimes the next day the car would drive just fine, other times the problem, "fixed itself" within a few days. Every time I took the car in they had a difficult time duplicating the problem. My check engine light would also illuminate but when checked no codes could be found. Super frustrating and scary to deal w/ this. In july/aug 2013 the problem got worse when I was involved in an automobile accident. Took the commander to chrysler/jeep and they were able to identify an electrical/shiftmodule problem. One of the reps. At jeep told me this been common w/ jeep commanders. Before I had the commander, I owned a 2005 jeep grand cherokee, purchased brand new in 2005. Great car but had some electrical issues, when on, my headlights would randomly start flashing. In my experience, jeeps look good but come w/ too many issues. [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).
