THIS COMPLAINT IS IN REGARDS TO A STALLING ISSUE IN MY 2007 5.7L JEEP COMMANDER. THE VEHICLE WILL STALL WHILE IDLING AT STOPS AND DURING LOW SPEED MANEUVERING AT TURNS AND IN PARKING LOTS. WHILE AT SPEEDS OF 45 MPH+ THE VEHICLE WILL ATTEMPT TO STALL AND TEMPORARILY LOSE POWER. AFTER STOPPING THE VEHICLE AND PLACING IT IN PARK, THE VEHICLE WILL RESTART. THIS HAS BECOME A SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN AS IT STALLS WHILE MANEUVERING THROUGH INTERSECTIONS AND AT INTERSECTIONS WHERE FOLLOWING VEHICLES ACCELERATE WHEN LIGHTS TURN GREEN. AFTER TAKING THE VEHICLE TO MULTIPLE SHOPS OVER THE PAST WEEK AND A HALF (INCLUDING THE JEEP DEALERSHIP WHERE IT IS CURRENTLY LOCATED), IT WAS DETERMINED THE PCM REQUIRED REPROGRAMMING. FOLLOWING THE REPROGRAMMING OF THE PCM, THE DEALERSHIP DETERMINED THAT THE ISSUE WAS NOT RESOLVED AS THE VEHICLE STALLED AGAIN WHILE MANEUVERING FROM THE SERVICE BAY. PER NHTSA ACTION NUMBER: EA07007, I CAN SEE THAT THE 2006, 4.7L COMMANDERS WERE RECALLED FROM WHAT APPEARS TO BE THE SAME ISSUE. I ALSO NOTICED THAT AN INVESTIGATION WAS CONDUCTED CONCERNING THE 2006-2007 MODEL COMMANDERS WITH THE SAME ISSUES (INVESTIGATION # PE07009) BUT THE INVESTIGATION IS NOW 'CLOSED' AND 'UPGRADED TO AN ENGINEERING ANALYSIS (EA07-007) TO FURTHER ASSESS THE FREQUENCY, SCOPE AND POTENTIAL SAFETY CONSEQUENCES'. THIS APPEARS TO BE A PROVEN ISSUE WITH DAIMLER CHRYSLER ERA VEHICLES WITH OVER 1.3 MILLION CHEROKEE AND COMMANDER'S RECALLED IN 2008 (HOOD, JAMES. "JEEP OWNERS COMPLAIN OF STALLING." CONSUMER AFFAIRS. 17 JULY 2013) AND 76 COMPLAINTS IN INVESTIGATION # PE07009. I AM FORTUNATE THAT DUE TO MY GEOGRAPHIC LOCATION I AM ABLE TO AVOID HEAVILY POPULATED THOROUGHFARES, BUT HAVE STILL HAD SOME CLOSE CALLS WHEN STALLING MID-INTERSECTION WITH ONCOMING CROSS TRAFFIC APPROACHING. THIS ISSUE GREATLY HAMPERS THE VEHICLE'S UTILIZATION AND HAS A DIRECT IMPACT ON MY FAMILY'S SAFETY.

Chrysler is conducting a safety recall of approximately 643,618 model year 2006-2007 Jeep Commander and model year 2005-2007 Jeep Grand Cherokee vehicles to address the problem of ignition turning off while driving (see NHTSA recall 14V-438 for more information).According to Chrysler, these vehicles may experience an unintended change in ignition switch position while driving, which may result in loss of engine power, power steering, and braking assist, increasing the risk of a crash and disabling one or more of the vehicle's safety features including the frontal air bags.Most of the reported incidents occurred as a result of driver interaction with the ignition key.Based on the recall action taken by Chrysler, this Preliminary Evaluation is closed.Additionalinformation on this closing resume, and the investigation are in the PE14-017 public file available online at SaferCar.gov.The ODI reports cited above can be reviewed online at http://www-odi.nhtsa.dot.gov/owners/SearchNHTSAID under the following identification numbers: 10101116 10103300 10106060 10112589 10116788 10126986 10128093 10130780 10145501 10146213 10153018 10155291 10156396 10158165 10162933 10166746 10178559 10183305 10186545 10189530 10192237 10193106 10194092 10199552 10199986 10221500 10222283 10227253 10231011 10328609 10358324 10392364 10577532 10585326 10585976 10599142 10604990 10605091 10605209 10606494 10606610 10607043 10607614 10607785 10608196 10615565 10615671 10615761 10616124 10633266 10633313 10633724 10639371 10640010 10644827 10652526 10653000 10653382 10654009 10654139 10654809 10655095 10659448 10662220 10662703
