1 Transmission Gear Slipping problem of the 2006 Jeep Commander

Failure Date: 02/20/2017

While driving the service rear park assist message came on and the check engine light came on. When this happens all the lights around the transmission letters on the dashboard start to flash and the transmission starts to slip. This happens when you accelerate. Have had vehicle at the dealership for 3 weeks now and have had no solution to the problem . Am very concerned about transmission slipping when pulling into traffic.

2 Transmission Gear Slipping problem of the 2006 Jeep Commander

Failure Date: 10/27/2008

Additional problems reference odi complaint #10244597. Received car back from dealership ran fine for two weeks. The car is now stalling on the highway at 40 mph near our home. Thank god I was able to get the car to the side of the road. Then the park assist service light came on and went off again. I got the car home. My husband took it out. The transmission was slipping and not shifting into higher gear. Today taking the kids to the bus it stalled again. When I was able to restart, I put my foot on the gas and the car hesitate, almost causing an accident. I have pretty much decided on voluntary repossession, as my kids are worth more than the deficient balance.

3 Transmission Gear Slipping problem of the 2006 Jeep Commander

Failure Date: 07/10/2007

We own a 2006 Jeep Commander that has been a problem from the first month we owned it. The first incident occurred when my wife and 3 children were driving on the highway and the vehicle shut off at 65 mph. The vehicle has consistently experienced the same challenge at low and high speeds. In addition, we have experienced similar issues as other owners such as; transmission noises and slippage, electrical system failures, excessive break noise, break wear, excessive cracking in windshield, seatbelt failure, window leaks, stereo replacement and more! in the last 9 months this vehicle has been to the dealer for repair more than 6 times for similar issues. The dealer, as with other customers has claimed they "can't replicate the problem. . . " and sent us on our way. I have now embarked upon having the vehicle bought back by the manufacturer and will also begin a formal legal case to ensure other owners receive retribution. This car is dangerous and the manufacturer is aware of these problems, you are not crazy and the dealers are covering it up!.
