What owners wrote
Driving on hwy 51 in tulsa. My 2008 jeep commander stalled at 55-60 MPH. Coasted to an off ramp, put in park and it restarted. I called the dealership in broken arrow, ok. The service department told me I have to have a code reading before they can do anything, and because it was the first time it may not produce a code, if so, they could do nothing and good luck. I bought this car new and it has only 2000 miles.
My wife was in the jeep with my 3 children driving approximately 25MPH. She said the jeep, which is 4x4 and has the 5.7l hemi engine, died with no warning. She was able to put the vehicle into neutral and restart it.
