general problems of the 2008 Jeep Commander

Traction control kicks in and the gas peddle doesn't work properly. Won't accelerate and just slows down. 20-30 seconds later and it kicks back off. Happened 3-4 times. No problems up until incident. Does have the tire pressure light on as well.

The Jeep randomly stutters, surges, and dies at the light. The brake light comes on and off and the brakes also feel like they stutter and/or shake when pressing on the pedal break.

Abs brake slip control lights stay on.

I was driving my son to hockey and there was traffic stopped in front of me I went to hit the brakes and the pedal was hard I kept stomping on the pedal and nothing I ended up rear ending another vehicle my Jeep was off after the crash and I thought nothing of it, I thought I was losing my mind that maybe my sandal got stuck but the more I thought about it the more and more I realized I did stomp on my pedal my 17 year old son was with me and he told me at one point I literally sat up trying to push on the pedal I'm aggravated and stressed about the entire thing so I decided to look for recalls trying to explain what happened and came across a incomplete recall, I swear on my 3 kids I stomped on that pedal and wasn't losing my mind nothing made sense so my Jeep is pretty much totaled, I'm not sure what to do I don't want this to fall back on me which it already has.

2008 Jeep Commander safety issue where it completely looses all electrical and motor systems while driving or idling. It stalls out only at low rpm or when shifting from first to second gear. I lost all systems including steering, brakes, and hazard lights. This happened to me several times in the past week nearly causing an accident. Dealership and private auto mechanic could not diagnose and it leaves no system events. I contacted Chrysler to see if this was related to an earlier model Commander recall with the exact same problem and they grew angry with me and hung up.

I was dirving and lost all power to the vehicle. The engine stopped, no power steering and no power brake. The managed with much difficulty to safely pull the vehicle to the side of the road and re-start it. This is the second time this has happened in the last 2 months. It creates a very dangerous situation and is a major saftey issue as it is nearly impossible to turn or stop the vehicle.

While driving on the highway, the entire dashboard went black and the car went completely dead. This has happened 3 times since the first incident. No lights, power steering or brakes, no power windows to put my hand out to wave cars around me. Car also stalls immediately upon starting up. Also another recurring issue is the entire dashboard lighting up and flashing, total power loss--no power in gas pedal, car stops, and then suddenly kicks back in. I called the dealership and they said I must pay $99. 50 for a diagnostic test.

I have had several occurrences of my Jeep stalling while driving. Range in speeds are from 5 - 60mph. Changed a computer and still having the problem.
