CarComplaints.com Notes: Whenever a new product is introduced, there's bound to be some problems. And man oh man, does the 2006 Commander have some problems.
It's the plight of the 1st-generation adopter: you get the newest and shiniest in exchange for a handful of issues that get ironed out in future versions. But what happens when that handful of issues becomes a bucketload? The 2006 Commander has quality control issues like the door handles breaking off and the sunroof leaking. But what's truly worrisome is the electrical problems like the vehicle shutting down unexpectedly, gauges going crazy or the cruise control having a mind of its own.
Bottom line: if you want a Jeep Commander, you're better off looking at a later model year.

The glass separated from the frame in the moonroof while I was driving down the highway in July 2018, basically creating a gaping hole in the roof. I went to the dealership to have it fixed as it seemed fairly part specific and it took almost two months just to get the parts in. (I was told Jeep had started working with a new manufacturer for that part and they were behind in getting it out.).
After the new glass and frame were installed the seal only lasted a few weeks before it started leaking again. Back to the dealership for a new gasket around the new glass. Then in January of 2019 the glass separated from the frame again. Third trip to the dealership and they installed a (second) new moonroof with a (second) new gasket. Even with the new parts the moonroof would still leak from time to time.
