i have an 06 and i have lost power numerous times when i pull out into traffic (i think it is usually while turning left). is this common? it is damn sure scary. i cannot recall any mitigating circumstances to explain the problem either.........if this is a well-known issue what does chrysler "officially" say is causing it? any ideas "unofficially"?

I have a 2006 Commander as well and I had the same problem when turning right. The problem was a loose fuel pump. Might be your problem.

Yes! Today I was listening to my radio fine. Then got in my car after the library and my speakers do not work. I thought maybe it was the CD I was listening to so I checked satellite radio and the regular AM/FM. I don't listen to my stereo loud either. I have a 2 year old with me all day. I made an appointment tomorrow to see why all my speakers have quit working. I have a 2007 Jeep Limited. Could it be a fuse?

They did something to mine about a month ago but the other day it did it again. Started the car and no sound. The next morning it was fine. I've also had a frequent problem with it starting then immediately dying. I need to take it in again. UGH.

the infamous 07 commander with the water on the door sills by gigagirl

Hi all, been pretty tied up work wise but have observed everyones posts and like problems. I must confess upon year three of ownership (2 years from now but who is counting) - it's bye-bye to Jeep for good. Anyway I am still encountering water entering on the door sills as previously written. I had actually "been called" to bring it in as I wrote a while ago as a few technicians from elsewhere wanted to check this out (I had pictures when the ice had formed and the water) and one upper tech management from somewhere else wanted to be there) were to come to the dealership service shop and observe and trouble-shoot the problem. That specific time they had the car for almost an entire week - no biggee though had it been fixed. When I took it home - I called just a couple days thereafter and told them all that was attempted did not fix the problem and interestingly haven't heard another word from them. Still getting literally up to a pint of water on the door sills (both sides) when it rains, this, again, not to speak of when we were with winter here - and it all froze and the doors literally couldn't be opened. Anyway I will again be taking pictures as where the water is accumulating it is now forming ready for this: (MOLD) - algea type coloring. That's something else - really it is! All this not to speak of the continuation of the electronics disabling - this, to do with the programming of seat/driver/mirrors type position for one and seat positions two. While that's surely not as huge a deal AT ALL as the water situation; it is, nonetheless, a PITA - pain in the...... So all and all - I am greatly disappointed in this mobile and honestly, every time I see someone driving one I so want to stop them and ask what, if anything, they've been encountering, not to speak of saying out loud in my car - what did we all get ourselves in to. I know I'm in great trouble when I observe the new Ford aka fix or repair daily as it's commonly been known to stand for - and it's beginning to look good to me! That's just sad, I say to myself!!! Anyway just checking in with everyone - hope the dying out of a few of your cars has been rectified and all others. Mine has not however and I sure do hope I'm the unusual case and no one else is experiencing same, as it's not been pleasant obviously and now MOLD unbelieveable really it is. Debbie-

hi- my commander has had water problems since day one. my "A" pillars fill with water every time it rains. they said it was some kind of sunroof seal that they replaced. now there is a really strange one. when it rains i end up with water ONLY in that little rectangular depression behind the cup holders. completely full. very strange. anyone else?

I have an 06' Commander that has done the same thing to me - going downhill, not towing anything, the brakes begin to chatter, steeringwheel wobbles and essentially, I dont have much in the way of stopping power, as if the rotors warped or some other catastrophic event occurred, but then when I get back on flat ground, after a few minutes, they return to normal. Any one out there discovered anything on this issue?

I'm so sick of this total piece of junk... by postermike

I turned 2,780 miles on the way to the office this morning in my wonderful 2008 Commander 4x4 Limited. Unfortunately, that trip included me using the emergency brake to stop the vehicle as my brakes were failing. It was already scheduled to go to the dealer this morning for several problems, including the stereo which the sound goes out several times a week, the start and immediately stall issue, the sunroof, while in auto-close mode, will stop and reverse if I use either of the two front power windows, and a rattle in the front passenger ceiling.
 
Yesterday evening I noticed the brake pedal was far away when I was stopped, I actually thought I had moved the pedals by mistake. Then on the way home, at every stop, the brake pedal would sink to the floor. This morning it was the same on my 2 mile trip to work and the last few stops I had to use the emergency brake to come to a full stop.
 
What a total piece of junk. I should have stuck with BMW.
