I was driving along the highway, when the vehicle stalled and all of the lights came on. I pulled to the side of the road and restarted it and drove away. After taking it in I was told it was a problem with crankshaft position sensor and that it needed to be replaced. After replacing the crankshaft position sensor and driving it back up to the mountains, it happened again. Same problem. I replaced the crankshaft position sensor for a second time. 6 months later a similar problem happened but instead of shutting down the car just sputtered and the engine light came on and started blinking. After taking it in the shop said that the 02 sensor needed replacing. I had passenger front O2 sensor replaced last month, and now it is happening again. The shop is now saying that the pcm is bad and that needs to be replaced. When will this end?.

I own a 2007 Jeep Commander 4 x 4 3. 7l. After having some issues with, what I thought was the transmission slipping, I checked and added trans. Fluid and had both trans lines replaced due to leaking. Everything seemed to be ok for a couple weeks, until I was driving to work and not only was there a delay when I would try to accelerate, the service parking assist system message appeared a couple times, along with the check engine light. The vehicle would not accelerate over 30 miles per hour and the rpms would run above 2 on the dash. I parked, turned the engine off, hoping it would reset the system, but it still continued to repeat the same things when I turned everything back on again. This went on for about 10 minutes. Then after 10 minutes passed, I was stopped at a llight and when I went to accelerate from the stop, once the light turned, the vehicle felt as if it was going to stall. I started researching the symptoms that I was having and it seems to be reoccuring in many 2007 Jeep Commanders. Most of the complaints that I read about, state that the dealer told them the either the automatic transmission control module or the electronic shift module was faulty. Please look into this issue further. My Jeep is only 4 years old and only has 50k miles on it and for a serious problem like this to be going on with so few miles, this just doesn't seem right.

I purchased this car in March of 07' or at least around that time, in late 07 beginning 08 my car started stalling for no reason I actually thought it was my knee hitting the key (I sit close but not that close) my husband kept thinking it was me as well, after several times of the car stalling we both realized it was the car doing it not my knee and we took straight to the dealer in Jan of 09. I advised the dealer all gears light up and the car will loose power or at least feel like it is and have no gas, I must shut the car off and restart before I am able to pull back on to the road.

This is not a joke this is a life treating issue. . I called world Jeep as well as Chrysler headquarters right away advising this is a serious problem and needs to be addressed. The dealer and Chrysler can not advise why this life treating issue keeps happening to my car, they just want me to replace the same thing they did 1 1/2 yrs ago. .
