Transmission Gear Indicator Problems of Jeep Commander

My vehicle would no longer accelerate in traffic causing me to almost get hit in the rear of the vehicle. I could do nothing but coast and brake. All gears became highlighted which were not previously. I am worried if this continues to happen I will be in an accident. This seems to be a common encounter among Jeep owners but there is no recall.

After driving for short amount of time ( 15-20 minutes) the transmission seems to lag into shifting. There is also a problem when trying to manually shift gears. Tried shifting into low gear at stop light, and the indicator on the dash stays in ' d' and will not engage in other lower gears. It also appears to lag when traveling at a stead speed, about 30-45 miles per hour.

The service park assist light will come on and them all the gear indicators on instrument panel will light up and vehicle stall when driving and lose all power. This has happened multiple of times at different speeds. Scan code only shows electronic shift module (esm) is bad. My wife was pulling onto the highway from a side road one of the times the vehicle stalled and was almost hit by several cars.

The contact owns a 2007 Jeep Commander. The contact stated that while parked, the vehicle intermittently shifted into drive without the brake pedal being depressed and all the gear shift indicators illuminated. The failure recurred on numerous occasions. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where it was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The VIN was not available. The approximate failure mileage was 78,000.

On several occasions my car has stalled and all gear boxes will light up with a message saying "service park assist" sometimes the car will beep and other times it won't. Usually this happens when I am in motion driving but at times will also happen when first putting it into gear. The check engine light will also come on. I have tried taking it in several times but they can't do anything because it will stop doing it before I get to the shop. Sometimes if I am stopped at a light the car will switch back and fourth from stalling and then back into gear without touching anything usually to make the car return to gear you have to pull over and turn the car off and back on it can take a couple times of doing this to make it correct. Sometimes when it switches out of gear and stalls there will be a loud sound the car will jerk it sounds like something under the car is causing the problem. This has been an on going problem since I bought this car this is a very serious problem that could potentially cause serious injuries or death I have been lucky enough to be able to quickly pull over every time it has happend. This needs to be investigated and have a recall there are several complaints of the same problem all over the web.

My 2007 Jeep Commander that I have had for less then a year has been giving me issues for a few months now, the service park assist light will come on and then the gears will light up and vehicle will stall while driving, it will lose all power and shift like the trans is slipping, at one point I was going across traffic while leaving a parking lot and it stalled lucky for me there was no other cars coming my way. I have had enough of this problem and seems like others are having the same problem, why is this not being recalled for safety purposes, its only a matter of time before I get rear ended from this issue.

Suddenly out of nowhere my 2006 Jeep Commander v6 just start jerking and driving very poorly. It only stays in third gear and the mil light indicator is on. It also jerks and seems like theres issues with the transmission. I've read online hundreds of users posting the same issue but there is no recall on the vehicle yet. This is very irritating and this could've easily caused an accident. I do not ever plan on purchasing an american made vehicle ever again. The Jeep dealer will not address this issue. This is unacceptable. I still have the issue.

Purchase a used 2007 Jeep Commander on Nov 2007 from dealership. Two years in possession. The Jeep Commander, gears will all light up and stall at 30 rpm for two in half months frequently. Without the dealership able to establish cause, I had to wait for the engine light to come on. On December 11. 2009, during the last two days, simultaneous the gears will light up while, the speedometer became irregular causing me to restart the Jeep consistently to reset it. Finally, the dashboard engine lights up and I turn it in to the dealership on December 12, 2009 the next morning. According, to dealership located in hampton, va. The problem is concluded as the shifter, not cover by the 4 star warranty however, after researching your database, I found similar problems with the power train and transmission software module. The Jeep is now located at the dealership for repair however, a major problem after 2 years and 40,000 miles in service should not be the cause of ware and tear.

My 2007 Jeep Commander refuses to accelerate after the service park assist light comes on and all gear options highlight at the same time. This will happen without warning while driving down the road and or highway. The only way to get the vehilce to begin to accerlate again is to put the vehicle in nuetral and apply the accelerator. It will also begin to accelerate while at a stop on its own. I have read many complaints of this exact and similar problems from other Jeep Commander owners. I have been waiting for a recall for this issue since other Jeep Commander owners has been charged for replacing transmission modules just to have this happen again.

Vehicle stalls and driver loses command of accelerator, power steering and brakes. Happens at various speeds but obviously most dangerous at highway speeds. When vehicle loses power, all gear indicators light up on the dashboard and the vehicle information system display reads "service park assist system" and the check engine light appears. Recommended dealer repair is the replacement of the "electronic shift module". This temporarily solves the problem but recurs within a few thousand miles.
