2008 Jeep Commander

Electrical System is failing. Began with the Electrical sunroof will not open/OR slide all the way open, the sunroof Electrical problem has been this way since 10 years before i purchased it in 2019. Next the panel for the radio and screen panel for AM/FM, Then the CD Player quit working all together. Will not play any CD. Airbag warning light is showing on dash,however, vehicle has never been wreaked. No airbag been deployed. Starting the vehicle, within the past 6 months 2008 commander has failed to start over 20 times after continuously checking alternator, starter, ect. Informed it is the Electrical System failing; By professional. Vehicles Electrical system has caused the gears to slip and it is a v6 but drives as a 4 cylinder. Driving on Highway is dangerous when Electrical system breaks down without warning. Suspension and shocks seem to not work well, as the slightest bump is rough and rugged throwing passengers around. All these defects never occurred from April 2020 until recently about December 2021. Electrical system Repair is thousands of dollars to fix or replace. This is a manufacturer problem. Please help to correct these issues for the safety of all those on the road. Thank you for your time and consideration.

I'VE BEEN HAVING ISSUES WITH MY '08 COMMANDER FOR SEVERAL MONTHS NOW. THE SUNROOF LEAKED AND WATER GOT INTO THE DASHBOARD, SHORTING THE RADIO OUT. DEALER FIXED SUNROOF SEAL AND RADIO. ON THE DRIVE HOME FROM THE DEALER, DASHBOARD LIGHTS STARTED FLASHING. RETURNED TO DEALER THE NEXT DAY, BUT THEY COULD NOT LOCATE A PROBLEM. THREE DAYS LATER, CAR WOULD SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING AND ALL DASHBOARD LIGHTS WOULD FLASH. RETURNED TO DEALER, THEY WERE UNABLE TO "DUPLICATE" ISSUE. TECH FROM DEALER DROVE CAR FOR 1 DAY AND HE COULD NOT FIND AN ISSUE. ONE WEEK LATER, CAR SMELLED HORRIBLE OF FUEL AND CAR WOULD SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING. RETURNED TO DEALER AND DEALER REPLACED O2 SENSOR. PICKED UP CAR AND ON MY WAY HOME, LIGHTS FLASHED, CAR STALLED AND SMELLED WORSE OF FUEL. IMMEDIATELY RETURNED TO DEALER, DEALER REPLACED A SECOND O2 SENSOR. PICKED UP CAR, 5 MILES FROM DEALER, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. CALLED DEALER AND HE SAID TO DRIVE CAR UNTIL THE ENGINE "RESET"(ABOUT 10 MILES) OR UNTIL LIGHT BEGAN FLASHING, THEN BRING IT IN SINCE THEY CAN NOT FIND A REAL PROBLEM. ISSUE SEEMED TO RESOLVE FOR A COUPLE WEEKS OF NOT DRIVING CAR MUCH, BUT THEN THE DASHBOARD LIGHTS BEGAN FLASHING AGAIN, CAR SMELLED OF FUEL AND CAR SEEMED BOGGED DOWN. TODAY, CAR BARELY STARTED AND WAS VERY BOGGED DOWN. ATTEMPTED TO DRIVE, BUT CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND FLASHED REPEATEDLY. CAR WOULD NOT GO OVER 40MPH, SHOOK HORRIBLY AND FINALLY SHUT OFF. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE THIS CAR WITH MY CHILD INSIDE. I AM A DISABLED SINGLE MOTHER AND I NEED A DEPENDABLE CAR AND DEFINITELY NOT ONE THATS GOING TO KEEP COSTING ME MONEY. I HAVE A WARRANTY THAT I PURCHASED WITH THE CAR, BUT IT SEEMS TO STILL COST AN ARM AND A LEG TO GET THIS CAR RUNNING FOR A FEW DAYS BEFORE IT CHOKES UP AGAIN. THIS CAR HAS SUCKED UP ALL MY SAVINGS AND STILL NO RESOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM. *TR

MY 2008 JEEP COMMANDER OVERLAND EDITION HAS SHUT OFF MULTIPLE TIMES WHILE I AM DRIVING DOWN THE INTERSTATE AT 60 + MPH. I LOOK ALL FUNCTION WHEN THIS HAPPENS; POWER STEERING, GAS, ELECTRICAL, ETC. I HAVE TO MAKE MY WAY TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND RESTART IT. IT ALWAYS RESTARTS RIGHT AWAY. I HAVE TAKEN MY CAR IN 4-6 TIMES TO ALLEN SAMUELS DODGE, JEEP IN KATY TX TO TRY AND HAVE THE PROBLEM DIAGNOSED. EACH TIME THEY KEEP MY CAR FOR MULTIPLE DAYS AND THEN TELL ME THEY CANNOT DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM. I HAVE CALLED CHRYSLER CUSTOMER SERVICE AND AM GETTING NO HELP FROM THEM EITHER. THEY KEEP TELLING ME TO TAKE THE CAR IN TO GET IT LOOKED AT SO THEY CAN DIAGNOSE IT. YET EACH TIME I TAKE THE CAR IN TO GET A DIAGNOSIS, I AM CHARGED FOR A RENTAL CAR FOR A FEW DAYS, BUT THEN TOLD THEY CANNOT DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM AND THEY SEND ME ON MY WAY. WITHIN WEEKS, I HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM OF THE CAR SHUTTING OFF WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE INTERSTATE. I HAVE RESEARCHED THE PROBLEM ONLINE AND HAVE FOUND HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE COMPLAINING OF THE EXACT SAME PROBLEMS IN THEIR 2008 JEEP COMMANDER. I AM AT A LOSS AS TO WHAT TO DO NOW. I FEEL THE CAR IS EXTREMEMLY UNSAFE, YET CHRYSLER IS DOING NOTHING TO FIX THE PROBLEM. *TR
