WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT I THOUGHT I COULD HEAR A SCRAPING NOISE. I PROMPTLY ROLLED DOWN MY WINDOW AND CONTINUED TO ACCELERATE SLOWLY. I DIDN'T HEAR THE NOISE SO PROCEEDED HOME. A FEW MILES LATER I PULLED INTO MY DRIVE AND A POLICE OFFICER PULLED UP TO TELL ME METAL WAS LOOSE UNDER MY VEHICLE AND SHOOTING SPARKS OUT OF THE REAR. THE NEXT MORNING I CHECKED AND A LARGE PIECE OF RUSTED METAL WAS HANGING BY A THREAD SO I REMOVED IT. I MADE AN APPOINTMENT TO HAVE THE VEHICLE INSPECTED AND WAS SHOWN THAT 2 OF THE 3 STRAPS HOLDING MY GAS TANK IN PLACE WERE COMPLETELY GONE AND THE THIRD IS BROKEN AND RUSTED THROUGH. MY VEHICLE IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE AND I HAD NO IDEA. I LOOKED TO SEE IF THIS WAS A RECALL ISSUE AND IT IS NOT. I SEARCHED TO SEE IF THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM AND FOUND THAT IT IS EXTREMELY COMMON ACROSS THE ENTIRE JEEP LINE. IF MY GAS TANK WERE TO SEPARATE OR BE PUNCTURED IT COULD NOT ONLY CAUSE AN EXPLOSION KILLING ME AND MY FAMILY BUT COULD KILL/SERIOUSLY INJURE ANYONE ON THE ROAD BEHIN

I HAVE HAD THE ASD RELAY REPLACED AND WIRING CHECKED WITH NO FIX. VERY DANGEROUS WITH MY 3 YEAR OLD IN THE CAR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 JEEP COMMANDER 4X4. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 25 MPH, THE VEHICLE HESITATED WHEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED AND STALLED.

INTERMITTENT STARTING ISSUE. THE JEEP WILL DRIVE FINE BUT ONCE YOU TURN IT OFF IT IS A COIN TOSS WHETHER IT WILL START AGAIN. I HAVE FOUND THAT IF YOU CRAWL UNDERNEATH THE JEEP AND PUSH IN ON THE YELLOW WIRE CONNECTED TO THE STARTER, IT WILL IMMEDIATELY START. IT IS OBVIOUSLY A POORLY DESIGNED CONNECTOR, AS IT IS OBVIOUSLY NOT WEATHER PROOF BUT IT IS IN AN AREA THAT NEEDS TO BE WATER TIGHT. I HAVE SEEN MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS SAME ISSUE ONLINE, BUT WHEN YOU CALL THE DEALERSHIPS THEY TELL YOU THEY HAVE NEVER HEARD OF THIS ISSUE.
