The vehicle door locks make s loud buzzing noise. i believe its the activator. this was noticed recently.
Vehicle turned completely off while stopped in traffic complete loss of power, fortunately not while moving. turned key to off position and turned back on. vehicle did restart and continue to drive. aware that chrysler has recalled numerous 2008 vehicles for recall# p57 (fobik ignition key).
My jeep commander has had 3 different mechanical diagnostics to diagnose why the vehicle shuts off continually while in motion or stopped. the ignition switch was recently replaced as a part of a recall and this has not solved the issue either. the jeep will randomly shut off, and all power steering is loss, causing a very unsafe condition until it can be put into park or neutral and turn back on. my last diagnostic showed the auto repair shopped a computer read of 'running' while the truck had turned off several times right in front of them. i have spent a large amount of money on diagnostics and no mechanic has been able to find an answer even after the ignition switch was replaced as part of an original recall. i was told by all three auto repair shops that they know there is a stalling/shut off issue but they are unable to fix it because there is no indicator of why through thorough diagnostics. they also noted that when the jeep shuts off the dash lights do not turn on as it would normally when a vehicle shuts off. when the jeep has shut off on me driving ...
Abs brake slip control lights stay on
Jeep will not start. it displays transmission over temp for a split second as you turn on the key. the jeep sat overnight in the driveway before trying to start it the next morning, and it did not start.
I bought my vehicle at a nissan dealership and didn't know that it leaked into the cabin on the driver's side foot well because of the drain tubes for the sunroof. i took it in they said it was fixed but the very next time it rained it was soaked again and by then i found out what is really going on with the vehicle. it's not that i don't want to be a good consumer and not make any waves, but i don't want to keep paying for a leaking vehicle, and don't know what to do. what happens if i go to step out of the vehicle and slip and fall, i have feet ankle problems as it is and it's detrimental to my health should that happen.
Tamara recall the jeep will cut off randomly while driving down the road. it will also make attempts to cut off while driving at 60 mph and below. the esp light and traction control light will come on. once able to get the jeep stopped with out getting in an accident it will restart and all lights will go off. this has happened now 3 times with in 4 days with it cutting completely off and 5 times trying to while driving. the 1st time it was on a highway going about 50 miles and hour. the 2nd time i was getting off the interstate while going around a curve going about 30 miles an hr. the 3rd time i was doing 35 miles an hr on a busy street. the times that it has attempted to shut off but didn't i was going between 45 and 60 miles an hr. this is unsafe for anyone to be driving and have happen. it can cause me to have accident and or to cause a accident. this can cause serious harm and loss of life. i am not sure if it is the ignition switch or an issue with the motor ...
Tranfercase shifted into nuetral while driving down the highway then back to drive jerking the gears and gears are now popping while accelerating.
Leaking water through side driver handle also carpets soaked when rains. has been happening through the years. safety issue now i believe is affecting my electical in door panel. passenger door window will not work from drivers side.now leaking from light fixture. will it affect any other electrical in the future? when jeep was new door hinge was replaced rusted out. need it done again. this is not normal maintenance to replace hinges. the door sounds like its going to crack in half when opening and closing. wouldnt be suprised if it fell off. its the same side as the leaks. im putting todays date because its all the time. also ive read there is a class action suit for the sunroof. but not vehicles before 2009? all recalls and suits match my situations but my vin # doesnt come up?? not right at all. there are so many flaws in this jeep but what im complaining about is serious.

For some reason off and on since we have owned the jeep bought it new we have had occurrences when the vehicle wouldn't start. just in 2016 we had to replace the solenoid and the starter. now in 2017 having to do it again. the problem is when the solenoid gets to hot the truck doesn't want to start after running for a while. and also having issues with the esp bas lights coming on which has to be electrical. i was told to contact you since many other chrysler owners and jeep owners have had the same issues. thank you
2008 jeep commander safety issue where it completely looses all electrical and motor systems while driving or idling. it stalls out only at low rpm or when shifting from first to second gear. i lost all systems including steering, brakes, and hazard lights. this happened to me several times in the past week nearly causing an accident. dealership and private auto mechanic could not diagnose and it leaves no system events. i contacted chrysler to see if this was related to an earlier model commander recall with the exact same problem and they grew angry with me and hung up.
My jeep liberty limited manufactured oct 23 2007 reference to 14v567000 jeep vehicles april 3 2007 to may 12 2008 ignition key (fobik) (exactly what is happening to my car) the ignition key (fobik) may not return to the "on" position after being rotated to the "start" position, instead sticking between the two positions. potentially, while the vehicle is being driven, the ignition may inadvertently move through the "run" position to the "accessory" or "off" ignition position, turning off the engine. this has been happening off and on for more then 3 months now. consequence summary: the ignition stays between "start" and "on" positions causes loss of certain electrical functions. engines stops, stater continues running, all the dash lights go on and etc. talking with chrysler today have yet to add jeep 2008 limited liberty to their recall list. ...
