Slowing down for stopping or making a turn the engine stops; the car dies. it has been restarting so far. i am afraid i am going to be killed and/or cause others to be killed. i have had the car checked out and they say everything checks out as ok. this cost me over $300. they changed the spark plugs but warned me this was not addressing the problem i was having. sure enough it is still dying on me. please help me. what is the difference in a drunk driver who knows before he takes that drink that he may kill someone and an auto dealer who ignore a problem and kills someone? i need to know what the issue is so i can get this repaired. *tr

I am writing to express my concern regarding an engine problem with my 2007 jeep commander, that causes the engine to stall, and all power to shut down and the engine to completely shut off. while at first this problem was simply an inconvenience, i soon learned how dangerous this problem actually is. i was on a highway and i went to pass another car, mid-pass my engine stalled and i lost all power with another car coming at me head-on. thankfully the other car was able to stop and we avoided a head-on collision at highway speed, but the outcome could have been very different. the stalling has been an ongoing issue with my jeep now for at least two years, with no resolution to the problem in sight. i have followed all suggestions like not having a key chain and only using he key in my ignition with no change in the frequency of the stalling. it seems a bit ridiculous that there has been no solution to this very dangerous problem. a case was opened by chrysler in january regarding my 2007 jeep commander stalling without warning. the stalling continues to be a very dangerous and ...

Jeep commander stalls randomly while driving. this is the 5th time in less than a week. when the vehicle stalls, the steering locks up and the car has to be put into park in order to restart it, and is difficult to restart when this happens. this is a major safety issue because the car is moving when it stalls. *tr

As i was driving my commander, it started to sputter and shift gears erratically and then died. the engine light was on as i pulled over to the side of the road. after i turned the car off completely, i tried to restart the car to continue to work. as soon as i put the vehicle in gear, it stalled once again. on the third try, i was able to place my vehicle in gear and complete my drive to work but the engine light remained on. this same scenario has happened five times since the original incident. *js

The "prnd" gears lit up with boxes around them - the "service parking assist brake" came on as well.... i could not accelerate at all after the light turned green - had to turn on hazard lights and turn vehicle off and back on - worked fine for 10 minutes or so and then the check engine light came on, it has been on ever since. called the dealership about this they asked me to bring it in for diagnosing, but hesitant because of all the same kind of stories that i have read on this issue. going to have to give in though, this is a major safety concern of mine now... have not seen a recall for this even though someone can certainly have a devastating accident, not willing to take that chance... love my vehicle, but now i hate the aggravation that this is causing.. with all the horror stories with the same sort of issue you would think that jeep would take care of this, i guess that this is why they discontinued the commander? *tr
