2 Fuel Pump problem of the 2008 Jeep Commander

Failure Date: 02/28/2008

Jeep would not start. Starter continued to turn check engine light illuminated. Was able to get engine started once but starter didn't disengage. Had vehicle towed to dealership. Dealership was unable to investigate it for four days (thurs. - Sunday) when I called on Monday afternoon they could not locate my vehicle in the computer. I contacted the service manager. Half an hour later they told me my Jeep needs a new fuel pump and would be ready tomorrow afternoon. They couldn't find it earlier because the technician did not enter the vehicle in the computer under my name. The Jeep is 2 months old with only 1600 miles on it. I only got a rental car for my troubles because I purchased an extended warranty. Normal warranty makes no provisions for a loaner vehicle. This is not the 5 star service I have come to expect. A brand new vehicle that doesn't start should receive priority status. If I had known it would take desert Dodge 4 days to look at my vehicle I would have had it towed to the other 5 star dealer in las vegas or waited for an appointment as I still have to pay tax on the rental car and my warranty is only for 5 days.

5 Fuel Pump problem of the 2006 Jeep Commander

Failure Date: 05/09/2007

I was exiting i65 s to i85 north at 40 mph as I came out of the ramp the engine stalled. The ignition switch and all of the lights and gauges continued to read accurately. I coasted to the shoulder and restarted the vehicle. It immediately started ,and ran normally. This could have been a bad situation if there had been heavy traffic at the time. The Jeep was due for its first service trip, so it went to the dealer on may 9, 2007. The incident was reported to the dealer ,who reported that the vehicle stalled as it went into the shop. The technician stated that he felt he had struck the key while moving the vehicle and this caused the stalling. This could be true. However, I am only 5' 3" tall and even if I had the seat all of the way forward with the front of the seat adjusted all of the way up, it was virtually impossible for the knee to hit the key. These two incidents were the only ones that I have experienced, but I felt there was a systemic problem.
