I've had my Commander for about 7 weeks now & I absolutely love it! This is my 1st brand new car & I couldn't be happier. Great suspension. It goes over speed/road bumps like a champ. Yes, it does get less than stellar gas mileage (which is posted on the vehicle info sticker), but if one can't afford to gas it up, he/she should not be purchasing this vehicle. If you're buying a car that has a $38,000+ sticker price, the gas money should not be an issue. I love all of the bells & whistles. I get compliments on mine all of the time. My family & I have taken several road trips & we all love taking it on the highway. Not as pricey as a Land Rover, but just as great, I think. I love this car!
Roomy fun and more

We were a bit sceptical about the commander but it turned out to be a great vehicle it has reached 165000 miles and the engine and transmission keep running stronger than ever I recommend this vehicle if you have a big family like we do!!

My wife bought this 2006 commander off the lot new. The Jeep was used as a test vehicle model for customers to drive. It’s now July 21,2018 and we still own it with 94,000 miles. The only major mechanical problems we paid for was when the oil began to drip a little bit and had the seal replaced $300. Secondary it was the electrical braking system (EBS) and that cost us around $300 too. The cowl panel that sits below the windshield wipers to keep moisture from rising up “Disintegrated”. I have no idea what happen to it. But we had no moisture problems leaking up from under The windshield anyway. The back passenger door handle broke on the inside really easy when I bumped into it when loading up a 5 gallon bucket of edger blades into the back seat floor board to bring to the recycle plant. But now we have to replace the entire panel in order to open the door from the inside. The Jeep is black too so in saying that the Florida sun has turned the fender flares almost bleach white from the 12pm-4pm sun beating down. But overall within the 12 years I bought 2 new sets of tires and rims for her and I keep the oil change every 4,000 miles and it starts right up ever single day. It’s not a perfect vehicle but it is a damn reliable one! But today I think we may have to sell it because we both lost our jobs within 3 weeks apart of one another and we never ever thought this would happen.
Best car I’ve owned

Rides nice, goes anywhere, tows or hauls everything I have needed it to. Bought it new 180,000 miles ago with the small V8 which is the engine I would recommend to others. The only downside is 15 mpg fuel economy but I never expected much better than that and for it’s age, weight and drivetrain, I’m not complaining.

I bought this car for my wife after looking at a number of cars. One of the first things that I noticed when I drove it home is that this thing is going to love gas. But I was ok with that because this is something my wife would drive and she only do about 50 miles a week. Overall I love the way the looks and drive with that 4.7 v8. I had some concerns after reading a fee reviews from edmunds whether I made the right decision on going with the Jeep. I have experienced the wind noise from the windshield and the engine stalling. But I got on to Jeep website and went to the owners link and to my surprise the have issued a recall on the engine stalling. So hopefully this will fix that problem.
