Radio/tape Cd Player problems of the 2008 Jeep Commander

Electrical problem sometimes when I start the Jeep my radio will not come on it won't come until I cut it off and started it back up sometimes it take 2-4 starts. Water problem I have water coming in on the passenger side floor board every time a hard rain comes. Can't find where it comes from. Looked on youtube about 6 people had the same problem with the same kind of Jeep Commander. 2008. This has been going on for 8 year on and off some. I bought the Jeep in 2009 the 1st year it leaked a puddle the next year it didn't leak as bad I thought I was leaving the window down but, I was not it is coming in from the sunroof tray somehow I believe get full and leaks down in on the passger side floor borard. A lot of 2008 Jeep owners are having the same problem. Chrysler need to do something about it too many people are on youtube complain about the same thing it should be a recall on them.

My 2008 Jeep Commander will not start. I still have power to my radio, power locks and seats, lights work. The battery and alternator have both been checked and are running fine. The truck will start if it is jumped. I have been doing some research and I have found many people with the same issues. Turns out it is the solenoid wire which apparently has poor weather proofing and corrodes after some time. Now I need to bring it in and pay for this fix out of pocket so that I have a source of transportation for my family. There really needs to be a recall on this issue, seeing as how there are so many people having the same problem. Please refer to this site, where I found all this information. . Read more...

My car started twice and then cut off. After the 3rd time it did nothing. No dash light radio or anything will work. The headlights and interior lights work so battery is fine. The key will not lock or unlock the doors.

Beginning around the week of June 7th, I began experiencing issues with my Commander. I would put the key in the ignition and it wouldn't start. The lights, radio etc would come on but the car wouldn't "turn over". After a couple of attempts, it would start. The following week while driving on highway 95 in boston, the car stopped unexpectedly. I was able to make it to the side of the road and was very shaken up. I was able to start the car again and drove home. The following day it happened again while driving and I immediately called the dealership. On June 14th I had the car towed there because I was afraid to drive. I was told that I need a wireless ignition module but there were none available & Chrysler was waiting on it from the manufacturer. I was also told that there was a waiting list of approx 1,700 customers waiting for this part and several hundred, like me couldn't drive their car. I escalated to Chrysler customer service who have continued to give me the run around and as of today they have no status on the part. I have been paying for a rental car since 6/15. I did some research online and just by typing in the name of the part and found several forums where other Jeep owners are experiencing the same issue. I believe that Chrysler needs to look into tis to see if their is a larger issue or at least make the replacement parts available.
