Jeep Commander owners have reported a total of 4,776 problems for their cars built in the 6 model years listed in the chart below. The chart shows the number of problems reported across all service years for each given model year of the Jeep Commander. The 2006 Jeep Commander cars have the most problems reported (2,527 problems).
| Model Year | Number of Problems |
|---|---|
| 2010 Commander | |
| 2009 Commander | |
| 2008 Commander | |
| 2007 Commander | |
| 2006 Commander | |
| 2005 Commander |
The following chart shows the 27 most common problems for Jeep Commander cars. The number one most common problem is related to the vehicle's electrical system (1,565 problems). The second most common problem is related to the vehicle's engine and engine cooling (975 problems).
It would not be fair to compare the Jeep Commander of an older model year to newer model years since older vehicles have been in service longer and thus are expected to have more problems. In order to compare the reliability across Commander model years, we use the PPMY index which is defined as the problems reported per thousand vehicles per Year. A smaller PPMY index indicates greater reliability of the given model year cars.
PPMY = P / S / Y * 1000,
where P = total problems reported during the life of a Jeep Commander model year; S = total units sold of the model year; Y = years since the debut of the model year (the age of the vehicle).
The results are shown in Table 3.
Another way to measure the reliability across the model years of the Jeep Commander is to use the total number of problems reported during the vehicle's first year in service, as shown in the Table 4.
