What owners wrote
I leased my 2006 jeep commander 4x2 4.7 v8 in 2006. The vehicle began having problems the same day I brought it home. The vehicle stalls frequently and the electric system disables. The stalling occurs without warning. The stalling also occurs at various speeds and while the vehicle is not moving. When the engine shuts off, the vehicle is completely disabled. The brakes wont work and I lose total control over the vehicle.
