getting my Commander Folder in order for the attorney (I'm not too optimistic that Chrysler will come foward by tomorrow and accept responsibility for the state of my Commander) and reading 1st Certified Letter to Chrysler, i.e., my problems started with the simple 3,000mile oil change that i did at the dealer. the car was running perfectly until that oil change; from that point forward (literally, as The Certified Letter and receipts show, within 24 hours after that oil change, the Commander needed a new starter, and experienced stall problems when having to slow down and then accelerate on a slight incline.

is very easy to contact NHTSA regarding these problems. there are on-line forms and phone number. if you are still experiencing these problems, please report them to NHTSA.
 
going through my Commander Folder today i realized that my very first complaint to Chrysler Jeep about a brake-stall problem was eventually addressed by a safety recall (that i only found out about when i called in to Jeep regarding the water leak and electrical/cruise control problems).

ABS and ESP/BAS and some other lite with a skid mark lite stays lit....
Any ideas why these are staying lit? I thought that maybe the brakes were getting bad so I changes the brakes all 4 wheels but to no availe
does anyone have any idea why these lights are still lit. They effect my cruise control being on

#31 of 34 Sunroof won't close by itabot

has anyone else had this problem? it it/can it be related to the former rainwater leak via the sunroof drains?
 
the leak of rain water has stopped on its own but this evening i opened sunroof and when i went to close it, it would not close. i had to shut engine off, turn on, turn off and on before it would close.
 
also, incase it happens again, does anyone know how to close these sunroofs manually?
 
thank you!

My 2006 Hemi does the same thing. Lights flicker on dash board after it rains or go through car wash. No solution from jeep dealers yet.
I had the terrible water leak problem. Found out it was debris
Getting in drain lines from sun roof by leaving it open under trees. Jeep blew
out drain lines for $150.00. .
Solved problem finally!

#33 of 34 Water leak problem by mpodolphin

My 2006 leaked so bad I thought I was leaving sunroof open. It is from leaving it open under a tree
Drain lines get clogged and need to be blown out $150.00 . Don't let them try and sell you new
$600.00 lines a good blowout solves the problem. Took me 3 years to figure this out just one little twig left in the sunroof track can get lodged in drain tubes as well as baby acorns ect.

I was having the same problem. Many people on this site, said the problem was with the ignition. My son had told me that I had too many keys on my key chain and that would damage the ignition. I removed all of the keys except for 2 keys and the problem has stopped. Maybe I caught it before the problem worsen. Try that before sending to the dealer. Good luck.
