It seem that the majority / every Jeep Commander or g. Cherokee has gone through one or more rack and pinion replacements. It is difficult to even find a steering rack to replace the defective one. . . As if that will last long. Chrysler needs to address this issue as if there are not enough issues with these newer Jeeps. I will never purchase a 2005 or newer Jeep again! Chrysler has really dropped the ball on this and completely ruined a great name for Jeep and their products. This Jeep is falling apart at not even 80k miles. If I had to pay someone - the dealer /"stealer" to replace all the defective parts I would have to sell my home. I have buckets and buckets of parts (rubber suspension components, ball joints, seized brake components etc etc) and now this. Nothing can be worked on, if you take it apart you better buy a new one. Everything is throw away.

I have a 2006 Jeep Commander limited. I was driving home this morning and all off a sudden just before I went to turn into my driveway the steering went stiff and started making a whining noise. . . Now can hardly steer it at all. . . I think the power steering pump or the rack and pinion steering is toast. . . Its a huge job as for you have to drop the front diff to replace . . Very expensive and is not under my warrant. . . . Vehicle is only at 80,000 km now . . . I bought it used last week and have only drove it for 1,500km . . . Not cool!! why is this happening on so many Jeeps!!????? Chrysler not doing a thing about it???? safe???. . . . . I don't think so!.
