This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
Tire valve stem corrosion. Tire valve stems corrode and break off very easily. Lucky for me the valve stem broke off while I was parked and filling the tire and not while I was driving. Could cause serious problem if it happened while driving causing the tire to loose air pressure rapidly. I have researched and found this is a very common problem for my make and model Jeep. I replaced all of my valve stems for safety purposes and they cost $107 with parts, labor and tax at a Jeep dealership. Believe there should be a recall on it due to Jeep knowing about the problem and not doing anything to fix it. Could cause serious injury or death if not taken care of soon.
It seem that the majority / every Jeep Commander or G. Cherokee has gone through one or more rack and pinion replacements. It is difficult to even find a steering rack to replace the defective one... as if that will last long. Chrysler needs to address this issue as if there are not enough issues with these newer Jeep. I will never purchase a 2005 or newer Jeep again! Chrysler has really dropped the ball on this and completely ruined a great name for Jeep and their products. This Jeep is falling apart at not even 80K miles. If I had to pay someone - the dealer /"stealer" to replace all the defective parts I would have to sell my home. I have buckets and buckets of parts (rubber suspension components, ball joints, seized brake components etc etc) and now this. Nothing can be worked on, if you take it apart you better buy a new one. Everything is throw away.
