The dealers have NO excuse NOT to know about ANY and ALL TSBs !!!
 
When you take your vehicle in for service, INSIST that all TSBs be accounted for for your vehicle!

I had the same issue and they replaced and resealed my windshield 3 times.
which never fixed the problem.
it has to do with either the ac vents or a hole on the firewall.
There is a fix for it, and they should be able to look it up.

THANK YOU for your post!! My new Commander whistled too. It seemed to be coming from the rear passenger door. I read your post about the roof racks being installed wrong... I thought what are the chances. Sure enough! The one over the passenger doors was reversed with arrows pointing rearward. I flipped it around... took it for a spin at 65 mph and... problem solved!!! Thanks again for the helpful information. We love the Commander, but I was starting to wonder if I had made the right decision. Think of the grief Jeep could get rid of if they would only get it right at the factory. The engineer's did their part... why can't manufacturing?

Hello All, I hope your whistling has ended. I fixed mine by purchasing a chrome bug shield. It not only looked nice, but I had no more whistling. Unfortunatly, I now do not have to worry anymore, as I traded it for an 07 Rubicon JK. I pick it up this evening. I loved my Commander, but not the headaches I had over it! Besides, I missed going in the mud! Take Care & try the bugshield. My issue was never the AC or dash, but the seals. Re-calking made it better, but looked terrible & on a $35K plus vehicle everything should be nice! Kathy

2006 Commander Too Much Trouble by wsbevier

I have brought my vehicle in at least a dozen tmes for wind noise and numerous other issues. The dealer in Panama City, Florida claim it is caused by the mirrors. This time, I was advised the service adviser drove it and it was normal. The miles on my vehicle were less than 1 mile total. How could anyone have possibly test drove the vehicle.
 
I also drove through 8 inches of standing water after street flooded this past spring. The vehicle sucked up water and ended up needed a new motor, $6000.00. This is a SUV and a Jeep right? My neighbor in their small Toyota went through the same water, and drove in and out no problem.
 
My sun roof leaks, my transmission "clunks" at 35-40 mph when you remove your foot from the gas. Numerous sensors have been replaced. I have always been pro American cars...now I see why Japan is taking over. My dealer could care less, then they send me an email asking how my service experience was? I cannot trade it in, the trade in value is 14,000 and resell is 19,000 who would want it after they run the car fax?
 
Jeep is losing customers, what are they doing? I agree call and email Jeep- class action anyone?

yes there is a way to fix it. my dealership put sealer on the trim on top of the windshield. there is a black strip that is not sealed right. It work for me until i had my windshield replace. So now i will have to go buy the sealer myself and do the samething. I took my jeep somewhere else to put the windshield in they told me the dealer should not have done that but i see it this way it stop the whistling and the loud music i have to turn up so i cant hear it anymore.
