3 Transmission Stuck In Gear problem of the 2007 Jeep Commander

Failure Date: 04/27/2019

When it rains my control panel goes haywire and I've lost function of a brake light. The truck is stuck in 4th gear and sounds like the frame is going to rip out every time it jumps. Losing power controls ie windows and things of that nature. I have 5 children, youngest being 8months. I'm a retired army disabled cavalry scout veteran. I don't care about my personal info. I can't get shit done cause some potato head sold me a lemon. I'm tired of getting treated like shit after the shit I've endured for americans that thrive off getting over on people. I'm done this is bullshit!.

8 Transmission Stuck In Gear problem of the 2006 Jeep Commander

Failure Date: 06/01/2011

2006 Jeep Commander does not start. We have to try about 30 times sometimes to get it to start. It just makes a clicking noise. Also the Jeep Commander will stall while driving. (very dangerous) especially with two kids. Another problem is it gets stuck in low gear or 4x4 (not sure which). I have read complaint after complaint on the internet about these same problems with many many 2006 Commanders. I am very displeased with how Jeep has swept these problems under the carpet. Yes, they have had a few recalls, but nothing to fix these very serious and very dangerous defects. Please help, as we spent a good amount of money on what we thought and needed to be a reliable vehicle. It is not reliable at all.
