Drivers steering wheel airbag deployed without reason while driving the vehicle. There was no impact or reason for deployment. Just a simple involuntary deployment of the airbag while turning off a city street into a parking lot. It could have killed me - or worse, I could have hit and killed a pedestrian in a busy lot.

Abs brake slip control lights stay on.

Air bag came on and doesn't go off, engine light is on constantly even after vehicle is repaired. Vehicle shuts off while you are driving. Seat belts are broken woke stay after being repaired. Windows get stck.

Was driving down the road @ 40 mph & my horn started sounding non stop & kept draining my battery. Turns out it is a faulty clock spring, & my vehicle only has 51k. The part to fix is retailed over $800 & you cannot get ahold of one because they are on national back order. Was told Chrysler will not do a recall because this vehicle is over 10 years old, but it only has 51k & this has been recalled on other Jeep/Chrysler models. Since it is hooked to my airbag, this should be a safety issue, but Chrysler does not see it that way. Will never by another Jeep because of this.

The door handles have completely disentegrated an the windows no longer operate. The seat belts work intermittently and the door locks unlock an lock at random. The engine starts an stops on it's own. This vehicle was my dream vehicle but now I feel totally endangered by the lack of care and design by Jeep. I feel it is a ticking time bomb ready to cause danger at some point to me or my family.

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.

We have a 2006 Jeep Commander and it sometimes jerks back and forth while driving sometimes it even shifts into neutral and then back to drive the power steering works only part of the time and the airbag system says its off all the time and it will shut off while driving sometimes too really frustrated with this vehicle its a disaster and waiting to happen.

The vehicle ignition is faulty and under recall. The vehicle will just turn off by itself. I have contacted Chrysler Jeep but they have not returned my calls to repair this vehicle. I own 2 of these Jeep Commanders and neither of them are safe to drive. Chrysler is aware that they are not safe but yet will not trepair them or provide safe transportation until repair is made.

My Jeep Commander turned off, causing my brakes to fail along with steering and airbags to fail. I crashed into the back of someone towing a pontoon boat. The total cost of damage was over $7,000. My insurance had to cover it. This is because of the recall p41. I have called and complained several times about my dash lights flickering, and my Jeep turning itself off. I was without my vehicle for 3 weeks while it was being repaired. Chrysler needs to get this issue figured out! this could have been a much worse accident had I been on the interstate.

In September of 2014 I recently bought a 2006 Jeep Commander. A few weeks after purchasing the vehicle I noticed the car was shutting off when I was at stop signs, red lights, and most seriously when I was driving. I was not sure as to why my car was doing this. I tried everything from a new battery and countless appointments at my mechanic. I was not informed of any type of recall on my car, until I did my own personal research. In may of 2015 I took my car to a Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep and ram dealership to find out when I could order the part for the p-41 recall on my car. I was informed that the part was not available in the country and they were not sure of when it would arrive. I was told the car was "safe" to drive. I was given a few tips: sit far enough away from the steering wheel so my knees were not close to the key, have the car key only on a ring by itself, always wear my seat belt, and avoid having a front passenger. It was only a matter of 4 weeks until I was experiencing the issue again. I was driving on the highway with my boyfriend and one year old daughter going about 65mph when my car completely shut off, I lost power steering, brakes, and every single light turned on. I had to resort to pulling the e-brake which did not help slow my car down. This was the most serious and dangerous incident, luckily we did not get hurt, or hurt anyone else. As a result, I took my car to another Jeep dealership and was advised the same information that the part was not able to be ordered and given the same tips. I requested a rental for the safety of myself and my daughter. It took me 2 weeks to finally receive a rental. I have had a rental for almost two weeks now and was told by the dealership, by pulling the e-brake it was going to cost me $1600 to fix. I do not feel as if I am responsible for the cost of the repair, considering this was caused by the p-41 recall.

My car cut out at 65 mph in heavy traffic. I lost my power brakes and steering. Additionally I lost my airbags. This is the 12th time this has occurred. I called Jeep and asked for a loaner or rental till this is resolved because there is no fix and they said they would not. I have nothing on my key ring that could have caused this problem and my knee is 8 inches from the ignition so I know I did not bump it with my knee. Jeep will not work with me and state it is safe to drive and I should be careful and try not to hit any bumps.

I was driving; the dashboard lit up and the air bag sign said air bags disengaged. Then the car shut off. I restarted it after several attempts. I want to know when are you going to get this problem fixed. I was fortunate in that I was driving slowly in town. But it has shut off a number of times. I keep only the key in the ignition and it has still done that. To me I think if I am driving on the interstate or some other high volume and high speed area and this occurs again causing an accident you will be the ones to blame.

My Jeep Commander has a recall, I took it in right away and was told part not available. It has been over a year and still not fixed. The dealership says no parts in yet and its been over one year. One year and I have made multiple trips and calls to the rio vista California Chrysler dealership and their response is that Chrysler is to send me a letter when the part is available. Dealership is saying part not available. This is a safety issue and my children's safety comes first. I'm appalled at how this has been handled. I've been patient for too long.

Vehicle loses power while driving dash lights all flash abs trips on and off.

Multiple occurrences of the ignition being turned off while driving. I have learned not to hang anything from the key while driving because it is too easy for a knee to bump the key and turn off the car. It has happened to me four times at freeway speeds. It should be fixed before someone gets hurt or worse.

I purchased this vehichle in Aug of 2012 and have been having electrical issues that have caused my vehichle to shut of while driving. I have also had issues with starting because the electrical system is failing. I have researched this issue and there are already many complaints on this vehichle with the same issues I'm having. I am very disappointed in this vehichle after spending the money to purchase it with 44,000 miles on it and have had nothing but issues with the electrical system, dash lights, and battery.

I was driving down a neighborhood street and re-adjusted my seating position. While driving, my knee slightly bumped the key and turned off my car while it was in drive. I then lost power steering and power breaks. Luckily I was moving slowly and could pull over and stop the car. I then tested it again in a parking lot and I determined that my Jeep shuts off every time I move the key with my knee, even while driving. Potentially very dangerous.
