#23 of 32 Re: Clunk in Front end (maybe more on right side?) [07commander] by jwrosen Feb 21, 2008 (11:49 am)
Replying to: 07commander (Feb 03, 2008 7:28 pm) YES!!! My girlfriends 07 Commander has the exact same problem. I've been to the dealer with it today is the fourth (4th) time and I'm fed up with the excuses. Today, and last time, they are telling me it's the bushings on the swaybar. Not too sure if I'm buying it but we'll see if this is the fix. Sure doesn't sound like swaybar bushings to me but I suppose it's possible Really disapointing for such a high-end vehicle $40K+ I just like you own a Yukon and it's a 02 with 80,000 on it and have never had a problem with it. Told that to the "technican" on the test drive so he could "hear" the noise and he made some smart comment about head gasket repair on the GM's. Told him I've had no problems EVER with it. BTW the first two times we had it in they replaced the pinon bearing and then some other bearing in the front diff. Niether of these fixed the problem. Seems like they're just guessing on this. I'll let you know what happens today and if they finally get it right. Replies to this message: donpic (Feb 21, 2008 6:06 pm) jwrosen (Mar 05, 2008 9:35 am)

Replying to: jwrosen (Feb 21, 2008 11:49 am) My humble opinion is that it's coming from inside the shock portion of the strut ass'y. Never hear it in the summer. Replies to this message: jwrosen (Mar 05, 2008 9:35 am)

Replying to: donpic (Feb 21, 2008 6:06 pm) Sorry I forgot to tell you what happened. They changed the bushings on the sway-bar and it seems to have corrected the problem. One of the folks there told me they changed the composition of the rubber on them and it solved the problem. If I were you I'd have your dealer fix it under warranty.
#26 of 32 Sunroof wind deflector? by postermike Apr 02, 2008 (5:02 am)
I have a month old 2008 Commander Limited. I was surprised to notice that the sunroof does not have a pop-up wind deflector. This is the first vehicle I've seen with a sunroof without one. I am barely able to drive 25 mph with the sunroof open without the wind being a problem. Does anyone know anything about a retrofit or do I have to go get one of those exterior wind deflectors?
#28 of 32 WATER LEAK by jens07 Apr 28, 2008 (2:16 pm)
I just bought a 07 commander and everytime it rains or I take it to the car wash water runs out of the handles by the window. It's enough to get the headliner wet. It has been in the shop three time already. It's still in the shop now and they have had it a week. The service man has tried everything but can't find the problem. Does anyone else have this problem? If so I sure could use your help.   Any suggestions will be a great help Replies to this message: jqualls (May 13, 2008 8:16 am) jmungar (Nov 08, 2008 12:54 pm)

Replying to: jens07 (Apr 28, 2008 2:16 pm) I recently just bought an 07' Commander and I notice that my passenger side floor board is lightly soaked with water. I just got in contact with my dealer to address the problem but I have yet to go into the shop.

Replying to: 07commander (Feb 03, 2008 7:28 pm) I had that same issue as well only mine came from the rear drivers side. I took it to one dealership who indicated they would have to disassemble my trunk area to find it. Complete bs. I took it to another dealership who indicated it was bolt that was connected to my rear drivers side shock. The rethreaded the bolt, tightened it up and I haven't heard the noise since then.

Replying to: jens07 (Apr 28, 2008 2:16 pm) you need to have the sunroof drain holes cleaned out. my dealer sent mine to a window/glass/sunroof place when mine was leaking from the handles and that is what they did. nevere leaked since. jeff
#32 of 32 Water leaks in 2006 Commander by jer1946 Dec 28, 2008 (11:18 pm)
It is in the Sun Roof, the way they installed the drain hoses around, they had to re-route mine and it was a fix, however they charged for it even though it was a factory install that way. No recall on it.
