2008 Jeep Commander

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. I'M WOULD LIKE TO HAVE MY CAR ADDED TO LIST IF THE GOVERNMENT NEEDS TO THIS SERIOUS PROBLEMS. THE DISCUSSING PART IT IS MY FAULT IF ANY SERIOUS ACCIDENTS HAPPENS AND I DID NOT HAVE CHRYSLER DO REQUIRED REPAIRS WITH CHARGING ME FOR IT. MY PROBLEM WITH THIS ANY REPAIR RECORD OF COULD BE LOST. ( THIS SEEMS TO BE THE TREND WITH SERIOUS PROBLEMS )

TIRE VALVE STEM CORROSION. TIRE VALVE STEMS CORRODE AND BREAK OFF VERY EASILY. LUCKY FOR ME THE VALVE STEM BROKE OFF WHILE I WAS PARKED AND FILLING THE TIRE AND NOT WHILE I WAS DRIVING. COULD CAUSE SERIOUS PROBLEM IF IT HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING CAUSING THE TIRE TO LOOSE AIR PRESSURE RAPIDLY. I HAVE RESEARCHED AND FOUND THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM FOR MY MAKE AND MODEL JEEP. I REPLACED ALL OF MY VALVE STEMS FOR SAFETY PURPOSES AND THEY COST $107.00 WITH PARTS, LABOR AND TAX AT A JEEP DEALERSHIP. BELIEVE THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL ON IT DUE TO JEEP KNOWING ABOUT THE PROBLEM AND NOT DOING ANYTHING TO FIX IT. COULD CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH IF NOT TAKEN CARE OF SOON.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 JEEP COMMANDER. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 50 MPH, THE SUN ROOF SUDDENLY SEPARATED FROM THE VEHICLE. DURING THE INCIDENT, THE SUN ROOF WAS IN THE CLOSED POSITION. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 87,000.

AFTER RECEIVING N23 RECALL AND OTHER SOFTWARE UPDATES (P73) THE 4 WHEEL DRIVES SYSTEM DISABLES AT RANDOM. THIS HAS TO BE REPAIRED AT DEALER. ERROR CODE POINTS TO SHIFT ACTUATOR, BUT IN REALITY IT IS SOFTWARE. IF ERRORS ARE CLEARED PARTS FUNCTION FINE. LOSS OF 4 WHEEL DRIVE CAN BE A LIFE THREATENING. SINCE MOST OF THE TIME 4 WHEEL DRIVE IS NEEDED IS WHEN NOT NEAR HELP. MY VEHICLE HAS BEEN HAVING THIS ISSUE ONGOING SINCE 2013. CHRYSLER HAS BEEN CONTACTED SINCE 2014 WITH STARCASES. ISSUE HAS YET TO BE RESOLVED. LATEST BREAK DOWN LEFT ME STRANDED WHILE ON VACATION AND HAVING TO PAY FOR REPAIRS. THE 4 WHEEL DRIVE SHIFTING FAILS RANDOMLY, IT CAN BE WHILE DRIVING OR STATIONARY. IT CAN HAPPEN WHEN TRYING TO ENGAGE 4 WHEEL DRIVE OR JUST DRIVING DOWN STREET AND SERVICE 4WD SYSTEM WARNING COMES ON. ERROR CAN BE CORRECTED SOMETIMES BY PULLING FUSE FOR FINAL DRIVE CONTROL MODULE OTHER TIMES REQUIRES DEALER TO REAPPLY SOFTWARE FLASH. SOME DEALERS REFUSE TO TRY THIS AND JUST PROCEED TO CHARGE TO REPLACE SHIFT ACTUATOR MOTOR. STARTED IN 2013-14, ONGOING MOST RECENT FAILURE 1/9/2017 REFERENCE: HTTP://WWW.JEEPFORUM.COM/FORUM/F777/N23-RECALL-ISSUE-NO-4-LOW-1561787/ HTTP://WWW.JEEPGARAGE.ORG/F5/N23-RECALL-FINALLY-SOLVED-88314.HTML HTTPS://WWW.FACEBOOK.COM/JEEP/POSTS/10151875332502449 HTTP://WWW.JEEPFORUM.COM/FORUM/F777/N23-RECALL-ISSUE-NO-4-LOW-SURVEY-1873090/ *TR

A COUPLE NIGHTS AGO I STARTED MY VEHICLE AND THE LIGHTS WERE DIM AT THE DASHBOARD. AT THE SAME TIME THE HEADLIGHTS WOULD ONLY TURN OFF WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS TURNED OFF, THE TURN SIGNALS QUIT WORKING, BUT THE HAZARDS WORK THOUGH, THE DOME LIGHTS DIDN'T WORK UNLESS LENS PUSHED ON BUT NOT FROM TURN SIGNAL LEVER AND THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS QUIT WORKING. THIS ALL HAPPENED AT THE SAME TIME. I THOUGHT MAYBE A CLUSTER RELAY WAS BAD. THE MORE I LOOK INTO IT, IT MAY BE THE TIPM IS FAULTY. IN THE PAST YEAR I HAVE REPLACED THE BATTERY TWICE, ALTERNATER IS GOOD AND THE VEHICLE STALLED AT RANDOM TIMES.

TRAVELING APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH ON I-85 WHEN THE JEEP COMMANDER MADE A CLUNK SOUND AND THE VEHICLE STOPPED. THERE WAS NO POWER AND IT WAS UNABLE TO START. THIS OCCURRED AROUND 10PM WHEN I WAS HEADING HOME AFTER WORK. IT WAS A SCARY EXPERIENCE SINCE IT WAS DARK. I WAS EXTREMELY THANKFUL FOR LAW ENFORCEMENT PRESENTING AND STAYED WITH ME UNTIL THE TOW TRUCK ARRIVED. I TOOK IT TO A FIRST MECHANIC WHO STATED THE ENGINE WAS TOTALED. I WENT FOR A SECOND OPINION TO ANOTHER MECHANIC SINCE THE CAR WAS MADE IN 2008 AND HAS ABOUT 112,000 MILES BUT WAS ALSO INFORMED THE ENGINE WAS TOTALED. THIS WAS A SHOCK AND DISAPPOINTING SINCE I DO NOT HAVE THE FUNDS TO PURCHASE ANOTHER VEHICLE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 JEEP COMMANDER. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO START THE VEHICLE, IT WOULD START AND THEN SHUT OFF WITHOUT WARNING. THE CHECK ENGINE AND OIL WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED AND THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED. THE FAILURE ALSO OCCURRED WHENEVER THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN AT VARIOUS SPEEDS. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO A CERTIFIED MECHANIC AND A DEALER, BUT THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DIAGNOSED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 150,000.
