• Fleet vehicle recall completion audit investigation # AQ10001

  On november 18, 2010, nhtsas recall management division (rmd) opened an audit query (aq10-001) to investigate recall remedy completion by rental car companies on safety recall campaigns.It was expected to provide the agency an indication of how completely and how quickly rental car fleets perform necessary recall-related remedies on the vehicles owned and then rented/leased for use on the roadways.Rmd queried three (3) major motor vehicle manufacturers (ford, chrysler, and general motors) and requested data regarding completion figures for fifteen (15) discreet safety recalls.Analysis of this data demonstrated that rental car recalls completion was neither complete nor consistent.The rental car companies representing the largest market share in the industry were then queried as to their respective policies for the rental, lease, and sale of vehicles with open recalls.The data and responses from the manufacturers and the rental car companies can be found in the document repository by accessing the ?"associated documents" link above.In december 2015, congress enacted the fixing americas surface transportation (fast) act.One section of the act prohibits rental car companies from renting, leasing, or selling motor vehicles subject to open safety recalls.With the passage of the fast act and its prohibition, there is no continuing need for the agency to investigate rental car recall completions.Accordingly, this investigation is closed.The agency reserves the right to open any future investigations, including audits of individual recalls, or groups of recalls, or rental car companies, to examine more closely safety recalls performance and completion issues in this area.

I have a jeep commander 2007 limited. According to your recall dates my vin number doesn’t fall within those dates for my car to have the recall. Although my jeep is completely stallling out while driving 69 mph, i mean loss of all electrical inside my jeep. Power steering fails, engine shuts off, i am lucky enough that my brakes still work but who is to say that won’t happen again. So when looking my vin number up seeing that this is one of the recalls, my vin number isnt part of the vehicles that was affected by the recall but i’m still encountering the same issue as the recall. I’ve taken it to my mechanic he cannot seem to find the problem. I need help i just bought this car! It’s our family car so it’s not only affecting me it’s my entire family. My husband, my two year older and my elderly parents.

Intermittent starting issue. This is my only vehicle, i have 2 kids with special needs and need to get to important appointments. I start my 2007 jeep commander, i get to where i am going, when i go to restart my vehicle it sometimes doesn't want to start. It will crank over just refuses to start. I have had multiple mechanics look at my jeep and no one can figure out reasoning to this intermittent starting issue. I have put so much money and work into my jeep for it to keep doing the same problem. The last mechanic i took it too seen code error in the display window on dash 'transmission over temp' when he had tried to start it. It does not do this every time the will be days it continuously starts every time then there are days that it's intermittent, and days it will not start at all. The mechanic starting lookin on jeep forums about this issue there are tons of reports of the same issue but no solution. My mechanic said jeep is aware of the issue but there is no recalls on this issue. He said he believes it is a programming issue the car thinks the transmission is over temp so it sends signal to the engine that it's too hot and the engine sends signal to the fuel pump that there is a temperature issue do not turn on. When it cranks over it acts as if it isn't getting any fuel at all. I have purchased a new fuel pump and some other parts the issue is happening. I bought the jeep in april of 2020 off of another owner, the issue didn't start with me until january of 2021, the previous owner mentioned anything about this happening to them when i asked them. Can something please be done about this issue so myself and thousands of other 2007 jeep commander owners can get back to enjoying our vehicles???? Thank you for taking your time and reading this complaint.
