Recently reported ELECTRICAL SYSTEM problems on 2007 Jeep Commander

Jeep will not repair my vehicle. i have attempted to schedule the ignition switch recall repair for a year. the dealership alleges that it does not have the parts. this vehicle is unsafe to drive. three drivers in our family have experienced sudden shut-off of the vehicle while driving on city streets and the highway. we have been fortunate that we have not been involved in any accidents as a result. we are not able to completely discontinue our use of the vehicle, but have been forced to use other transportation whenever possible out of fear that the vehicle will shut off while driving and cause an accident. we are not in a financial position to sell the vehicle, especially in its defective condition. i would not, in good conscience, be able to offer the vehicle for sale without disclosing the defect, and i would owe more on the outstanding loan than the amount for which i could sell it. this is outrageous that jeep will not repair the vehicle. how can it take more than a year to produce the part(s)? how can they continue to produce new vehicles while ignoring this problem? your notice states that the nhtsa is sincerely concerned about my safety, so i'm confused as to why jeep is permitted to make this matter such a low priority (or completely ignore the problem). please help, i don't want to become your next statistic. *tr

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/nhtsa 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.

On the way home from work one night my engine light came on. we took it to our mechanic the next day and had it checked. we were told it was the knock sensor causing the warning. he had to order the parts to replace the sensors. after they were replaced it was just fine for about three weeks. the check engine came back on again. took back to our mechanic he said they were bad and replaced them again. the first two were sets from auto parts suppliers but when the second part failed he ordered a set from the jeep dealer. well they failed. he has been in contact with the jeep dealer trying to figure out what is wrong. according to them they have never had a problem with the knock sensor. i find that hard to believe. my mechanic is at his wits end about it. he contacted the dealer about the cost to have them check them out. they told him just to scan the computer was $94.00 a half hour and to run a complete test would be $100.00 a hour and take maybe two to three hours. i can't believe we have the only jeep commander that has this problem. *tr
