Car Stall problems of the 2007 Jeep Commander - part 1

The contact owns a 2007 Jeep Commander. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the vehicle stalled without warning. The failure recurred while the engine was idling and at after start-up on several occasions. The vehicle was taken to bosak Jeep (3111 w. Lincoln hwy merrillville, in 46410) and an unknown relay switch was replaced however, the failure continued. The mechanic then informed the contact that the crankshaft sensor, camshaft sensor, and power train control module were defective and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 133,700.

I bought this Jeep 10-4-19. Since I've owned the vehicle it has stalled multiple time while going down the road. The first time it happen was with my 18 year old daughter. I first thought she just did something wrong and didn't think much of the issue. Until I was taking my son to a baseball camp in ut knoxville. It died on us twice while going down the interstate. Luckily, I was able to pull off the side of the road. It took us about 5-10 minutes and it finally would start back up and run normal. On the trip home it ran fine until we crossed over the georgia state line and it died one more time. I have replaced the battery. I read somewhere that it was a grounding issue so I pulled the ground wires off to make sure they are touching metal. This hasn't helped and the vehicle will still stall while driving or at stop lights. I bought this for my kids to drive but like everyone else I've read about. I'm afraid to let my kids or wife drive this car. I don't have the money to buy another vehicle. Any help would be greatly appreciated considering this seems to be a known issue. I've started documenting the times it stalls to see if there is a pattern. 11/7/19 8 pm in traffic, 11/12/19 8 am in traffic, 11/20/19 lows parking lot, 12/2/19 10:17 pm at red light - then again 10:29 at another red light down the road. Also the speeds were from 35 mph to 75 mph doesn't matter.

The 2007 Jeep Commander I own is having a fuel pump relay issue. It will not start but continuously turns over also we have had the car stall out on the highway at high speeds making it a rather dangerous situation. Many of the vehicles from 07 and up had a recall for this exact reason but unfortunately mine was not covered under this recall. I am certain that this is my issue but the manufacturer has refused to do anything to fix the problem without paying an arm and a leg.

Tl the contact owns a 2007 Jeep Commander. While driving approximately 25 mph, the vehicle stalled and the oil pressure warning indicator illuminated. The contact switched into neutral and restarted the vehicle normally. The contact also stated that the failure occurred two other times. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic, but the failure could not be duplicated. The vehicle was not taken to a dealer for diagnostic testing. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 113,900.

While driving at 60 mph on the highway, my Jeep has jolted like it had lost power for a brief moment. The jolt was severe enough that it made my arms ache from it. This worries me as I have read many complaints about complete stalls at high speeds and this could cause a severe accident. My Jeep has 150,000 miles on it. This issue needs to be investigated before there is a fatality.

The contact owns a 2006 (na) Jeep Commander 4x4. While driving unknown speeds, the vehicle stalled without warning. The local dealer was not contacted. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified. The failure mileage was approximately 91,000.

I have own this car for 5 years and it did shut down on me due to I did hit the ingestion switch with my knee as we were going down the interstate. A couple years go after that with no issue. Now my 17 year old girl drives it now with no issue. Got recall littler ignition switch replacement. Got switch replaced and one for a re-flash on the power train. Now after that it has stalled out on my daughter 2 times a mouth apart when stop to make a turn going to school. Took to the dealer and they said it was a faulty front control module and only going off of stored codes b211e & b211a and don't know how many counts or how old they are. The service writer could not tell me that is a fix and the tech said that is what it need . I took the car home and I can not find these codes anywhere online. I did find a lot of complaints of this same thing and the fcm has been replaced with many other sensors and they still have the same issue. So that my have saved me over $500 that may or may not fix it. . I the parent am driving the car now till I can this figured out. If there are updated resolving this issue with the same problem please advise. Don't what to just throw away money on parts that is not on me but more of a safety issue on the Jeep company end that needs to fix this. Thanks for your time.

While driving at slow speeds, the vehicle stalls out, obviously resulting in a loss of power steering & brakes. This has happened 50+/- times over the last 2 years of my ownership. The problem has intensified over the last 2 weeks, but would always re start after shifting into park. Last night (10/8/2017) it happened again. This time while merging onto a highway at 55 mph. The vehicle suddenly lost power as I coasted to the side of the highway. This time it would not start & I had to have the vehicle towed. Through on-line research, this is a common problem on the Jeep Commander (4. 7l) dating back to when the vehicles were new. The fix for the problem varies greatly. Given the timeline for this problem, its obvious this is a problem that daimler Chrysler (now fiat Chrysler USA) is aware of & makes no attempt at a solution.

My 2007 Jeep Commander is stalling and shutting off while in park and while driving regardless of speed. It has been diagnosed at a Jeep dealership and they say the fuel pump is bad though are unsure if that will fix the problem.

While driving my 2007 Jeep Commander, it will shut off. Other times the lights will flicker off and car seems to stall. This problem happens without any warning. It is very scary to be driving on the interstate and the car just stops!!! I have four children that I drive around, so this can not happen! I have read where there have been many complaints about this and nothing has been done. That is unacceptable because lives are at risk. I'm taking the vehicle in for the ignition switch recall, but I have read where that has not fixed the issue I am having.

Driving at 58-60mph car stalled very briefly,a second or so, chimed once and then kept going, after about 1/2hr driving same speed my car did the exact same thing, stalled,we actually lurched forward in our seat, then 40 min later car did it again. 3 times total. I pulled off the highway and shut my car off and then drove without problems.

Had vehicle towed to another firestone. At that time another engine analysis was completed. After a few hours we we're inform that cylinder 1, 2, and 4 were lost/failed. Also that it would not have been notice during a normal check-up and that they could not fixed it was a manufacturer issue.

My situation began on Jul 10, 14 when my vehicle began stalling while driving. Since that time, this vehicle has been stalling and quitting on the highway/city streets and sputtering along every time I drive it. This vehicle stop running on me while driving 65 to 70 mph and I have to pull over to restart it. This is at a standstill and cannot be restarted while coasting. Another time I was at a stop light and the motor died when I applied the gas pedal. Even while turning onto a major highway has given me scary moments. Even while at a stand still, the engine has died on me. These incidents that I have described have happened to me and my wife more than once for each situation that I mentioned here. To the best of my judgement, my situation is a major safety issue and an accident waiting to happen. The situation here is that the engine sputters/stalls and quits on me while driving. The cause to me is unknown since I am not a mechanic. As stated, this started Jul 2014 and has been ongoing to date.

This will be the 3rd electric shift module put in this vehicle. The vehicle lost power then stalled in traffic. The vehicle, while stopped in traffic, would surge. If the brake wasn't applied, it would have struck the vehicle in front of mine. When the problem first started, the incidents of stalling and surging were minimal. As time went on, the incidents were more frequent. The previous switch module (21030400768004143-af) was replaced ($1067. 00/dealer only part/repair cost). The latest module (dealer only part cost me $1008. 04 (part & repair cost). This is the 2nd report to you on this vehicle.

We have only owned this used Jeep for not even two months, bought from us auto sales oct 18 2013, vehicle began jerking around all over out of the blue could barely drive it almost caused us to get into an accident, had to pull over multiple times, took for service, said it was not transmission or engine, see on internet five recalls, have read many people having issues, today vehicle freezes up while driving twice, decelerates powers down to almost a stall out in traffic while my five kids are in this vehicle with me! very dangerous, read on internet multiple places and people having same issues and Chrysler not fixing problems??? why not do they want to be sued or cause an accident? my vehicle just started doing this now two months after buying it used!!!!! twice in one day freezes up while trying to drive it, powers down wont accelerate, like its stuck in one gear wont go loses power like it will shut off suddenly have to pull over and turn off and restart to get it to stop doing this. . . . Make them fix it before it causes accidents for not just me but everyone else that is having this problem search the internet you will find many are having this same issue!!!!!! do your job! I expect something to be done about this at once! and remedied. . . . Do I take this to the dealer to have it fixed? or back where I bought it????? I am reading that Chrysler is refusing to address the issues and multiple incidents are found all over the internet just search it up under make and model and year of the vehicle! and type in loss of power stalling and it says the remedy is a pcm module or something? I really need this addressed at once and told how to fix this as we just bought this vehicle.

The park assist light comes on causing the vehicle to stall while driving. Lost communication with left front door module electrical .

I would be driving, and my temperature gauge would slowly creep over to hot, temp over heating. . I noticed as I slowed down my car wanted to stall, it would putt putt putt until I gave it a go as if it was misfiring, and slowly the temperature gauge would go back to normal. Honestly not thinking anything of it, I went home, dropped the groceries off and proceeded back to my car to pick my son up from school. I started my car, it stalled, I started it again, it stalled, extremely worried I was praying third time a charm. . As I started it the third time it started with much hesitation and did the same stuttering as if it was misfiring again. I proceeded to my sons school, watching the temperature gauge creep right back up to hot. When I got there I checked the hood, no steam, nothing seemed hot, and the coolant level was still full. When we went to leave it refused to start. Long story short, I have been without my car for a month now, and after spending 1000's of dollars to fix the situation, the mechanic cant for certain put his hand on it. Everything he does, leads to him thinking something else, and leads to the problem becoming an engine overhaul. Has anyone else had this over heating issue, and the misfiring of the car, as if it stalls while driving? please, I have contacted Chrysler, I am at my wits end.

SUV stalled on highway, this has happened for a long time now and always get the same answer. I have had many thing changed that I have been told was the issue, but nothing works. Today was that last straw. I was driving to work the SUV stalled and almost had a major accident. Something must be done about this. There seems to have been recall for this issue before, but Jeep said it was not for my VIN. Well it needs to be . Please help me get this fixed before somebody dies, like I just about did today.

I have a 2007 Jeep Commander with a chronic stalling problem. Within just a couple months of buying this used vehicle, it stalled for the first time on the new york thruway going 70 mph. Since then, the vehicle chronically and randomly will stall. I have had it stall as much as 7 times in the space of going 12 miles! it will stall on the highway at 70 mph; or stopped at a stop sign; virtually anywhere anytime! this is extremely dangerous. Recently, I had it stall on the highway; I got it restarted and drove to my exit. At the end of the exit ramp when the light turned green, I proceeded to attempt to cross a busy intersection and it died again!!! I can't trust this vehicle and am afraid to drive it much. We have taken it to the local Jeep dealership many times without successfully fixing the problem. Most recently, we left the Commander at the dealership for a week and they thought they had it fixed so we picked it up and in just over 1 day it stalled again. I work only 6 miles from home and can't make it home from work without it stalling. We have put thousands . . . And thousands of dollars in repairs replacing sensors (including map), exhaust pipe with catalytic converters, ignition system, . . . And the list goes on. Looking on the internet, there are many websites and many complaints by other 2007 Jeep Commander owners for my same stalling problem. The 2006 Jeep Commander has had recalls for stalling . . . And this vehicle (2007 Commander) should be recalled and fixed. I cannot stress strongly enough how hazardous this vehicle is. Would you place your life . . . Your loved ones lives . . . In a vehicle that chronically stalls anytime and anywhere without warning?? think about it! I am just looking for Jeep to fix the problem their design has caused in this vehicle.

Yesterday I went to start my Jeep and when I turned the key nothing happened. A few seconds later it started without me doing anything. I only had to drive a few blocks and then shut the vehicle off. After 15 min I came back out to start my Jeep and nothing. . . I just had a new battery and starter installed about 4 months ago. After approximately 20 min and trying to start it several times, it turned on. There were no problems w the lights or ac. . I took it to an auto parts store and they hooked it up to the machine, battery, starter, and alternator were all reading good. It started fine for the rest of the day, however when I went to leave work that night, it took a few tries and about 5 min. I also had over half a tank of gas so that's not an issue. I started researching and found many similar cases. I am supposed to take my Jeep on a 13 hour trip next month and now I am very nervous that I will end up stranded while on vacation. The fact that I found so many other Jeep owners experiencing almost identical problems has left me very upset and nervous every time I need to go somewhere. I also have 2 young children and it worries me to end up stranded somewhere with them. I hope Jeep does something about this. I have had mine for 3 years and have loved it thus far. I'm not in a position to get a new vehicle at the moment so I hope this problem is fixed ASAP.

Vehicle stalled when attempting to take off from a red light. It would not initially restart, but a full power cycle of the car resolved the issue. Reporting incident as many others have reported similar problems and want to add to the data.
