2006 Jeep Commander | Retro Review

[@anthonyseeger2138]

I owned one, a 2006 limited 4x4 hemi from may 2010 till April last year, when I traded for a 22 wagoneer. I used it to tow its entire time with me. It was quirky, but I never had major issues with it. I liked it the entire time I had it.

[@JamesK7911]

Looks likes you’re one of the uncommon lucky ones 😅

[@Tireguy90]

I had a Hemi Limited. 06. The power was remarkable, but unfortunately it had some electronic gremlins and recurrent 4WD problems. That, and the transmission went out at 86k miles.

[@MrTommyLove]

I own a 06 jeep commander currently and the thing is a beast. Even with the typical jeep electrical issues. It still drives i take it up to the mountains all the time and here we have some very long hills driving up to the mountains, and thing barely needs gas to get up.

[@mrjack8849]

My mom drove a Commander new from 2006 to 2022 when the engine went out at only ~150k miles. Was never sure what happened to it, but she got $1000 for it not running. It was the 5.7 Hemi Limited and never got more than 13 mpg for whatever reason, even on long highway drives. It also had radiator problems, but she really liked it. She had (and still has a 1996 XJ) new from the dealer, so she liked having another Jeep vehicle that was bigger to haul family around. Her Commander didn't have the color screen as shown in this video though, but it did have that neat brown leather interior which held up well. The rear little ceiling windows were also pretty neat. She was very sad when it died, because the exterior and interior looked immaculate because she took care of it. It had the design of a Land Rover. She wanted to get another Jeep like a Grand Cherokee or Wagoneer, but I told her I would avoid Jeeps these days so she went with a different brand instead. BTW, her 96 XJ has 199k miles on it and still runs like new! We took that XJ on several offroad trips in New Mexico, Colorado, and Arizona over the years. It just keeps going with it's 4.0 inline 6 engine. Somebody out there is driving a nice 2006 Commander for pretty cheap after they fixed the engine.

[@kowalski5599]

She was better off keeping the XJ with the I6. She will still be driving it when the new owner of the cheap Commander experiences more problems after they fix it. Good Jeep died when they canceled the 4.0L

[@16BitOG]

[@theKevronHarris]

My 6th grade teacher had got me a brochure of the Jeep Commander when it first came out and I thought the Jeep Commander was luxurious at first, but it had cheap interior materials that doesn't make it look like a luxury SUV.

They should've named the 3 row Grand Cherokee the Commander, to be honest. It just fits the name better than Grand Cherokee L.

[@levijones8942]

Grand Cherokee name sells better.

The Grand Cherokee short wheel base should be called the Cherokee. The L should be called the Grand Cherokee. The current Cherokee should be called something else like the Liberty, which it was for many years in North America.

I have a 2006 v8 what do u do mines at 220

[@mikehook4830]

3.7 is a gutless, inefficient engine - I know it because I have one in an '08 GC - you know it as well. The thing about that engine is that it's sneaky good at hanging around for a loooooong time. At 250k, you obviously know it...ours has 235k on it currently, doesn't burn oil, and just keeps chugging along. All I've ever done with it is stay on schedule with oil changes, give it an air filter every now and then, and change the plugs (once). I'm sure you're like me....I don't care much about the fact that it doesn't pull as well as a hemi when it's still running strong after all these years. Honestly, I think in a few years, people are going to start to realize that the 3.7 is every bit as good and maybe better than the engine it replaced (the legendary 4.0 straight six). Yeah...I said it.

[@godlikeike]

What oil you use? High milage? I'm at 110k on my 06 v6 now, hoping to get at least 200k.

[@mikehook4830]

@@godlikeike nothing special. For the first 150k it was just regular dino juice. I switched to synthetic blend after that, but it's not anything "high mileage" specific. Just keep on schedule with oil changes. That's all i ever did. This engine never really asked for much beyond that.

I became friends with someone in my old apartment complex who had one of these. We went on a road trip in it and I don't think I've ever heard a vehicle with so many squeaks, creaks and rattles 😐 I asked him how many miles it had and there were only like 55k on it.

[@JK-tq4qf]

It wouldn't be a Chrysler/Mopar product if it didn't squeak, rattle, or having a noisy fan belt. They just don't make quality vehicles. Never have. Now its a weird confusing mess of who owns who, lol. Lee Iacocca should've let it sink.

[@kevinbarry71]

They really phoned this one in. Very slightly larger and they stuck in a third row, which works as long as you don't intend to put humans in it.

[@davidmollard9832]

I loved these. They were a little too expensive when we bought our last car and a little too old when we bought our truck

[@AlexTM44]

And it's one of the coolest looking Jeeps out there. I bought a 2007 one and I absolutely love the thing, and next to my Cherokee XJ, the Commander looks like a bigger and more modern XJ, probably one of the reasons I like the Commander so much, plus it's absolutely awesome to drive, and mine is only the 3.7L

[@dallasgoble1787]

After reading a lot of these comments, apparently I got a decent one. Bought an '08 Hemi 1-owner with over 80k miles in 2017 and love it more every year. We've got 150k miles on it now. It has never left us stranded in snowy winters or blistering heat. Kept up with the basics (periodic fluid and filter changes). Repairs have been one differential bearing at 120k (was getting noisy), an 02 sensor and passenger side-view mirror at 133k (the heating feature was discoloring the mirror), a thermostat around 140k and a recently a water pump and different 02 sensor. Weak areas are the A/C (could be colder) and the design of the drains for the sunroof (I had to unclog them twice to alleviate drainage backup into the front footwells; found a tip/trick on KZbin a few years ago and no problem since then. We're keeping it until it's no longer possible to drive it.

[@briengakaplan-b1550]

[@rjcolombe]

Those mid-2000s DaimlerChrysler interiors really were terrible. You can tell where they didn't put enough development dollars. Also, that 3.7L V6 had no right being put into a vehicle this big and heavy.

[@haroldbeauchamp3770]

Agree with the V6. But Chrysler had union contracts to uphold and those 3.7 had quotas to make. The engines had to be put in something.

[@rjcolombe]

@@haroldbeauchamp3770 Fair enough. But sadly, those 3.7s were barely enough in the Liberty, mind you something almost twice the size. I'd have rather seen the 4.7L V8 (or even the 4.0L V6 from the Grand Caravan) in there instead.

[@haroldbeauchamp3770]

@@rjcolombe agreed. I don’t recall Chrysler putting the 4.0 SOHC V6 in many vehicles. Only the Town and Country and Grand Caravan and the Dodge Nitro. It’d have been a decent base engine in the Commander. My only assumption is the fact that the 3.7 was significantly cheaper to build than the 4.0 and Chrysler wanted that profit.

[@atribecalledcookies4]

We still have one of these in our fleet with the 3.7 V6 and 105k miles, so far it's needed 2 water pumps, pcv valves, front suspension components, used clock spring assembly, abs wheel speed sensor and hub assembly, oil pan gasket, every so often it throws an evap code bc the tank failed the smoke test needs to be replaced, the 3.7 seems to love oil, doesn't leak any and doesn't burn any but it's not acceptable in my opinion, the gearshift assembly had to be removed and the copper ribbon assembly cleaned with alcohol and q tips to remove that code. Still runs and drives fine, adequate power, ok fuel mileage.

[@PurpleNinja-vn4hv]

We owned a 2007 with the 4.7 from 2008-2023. Aside from some electrical gremlins thanks in part to one too many rainstorms with the sunroof open, it was a great car and always got us where we were going. Was amazing in the snow with the Quadra-Trac II drivetrain and with the tow package it was very capable with a trailer or boat. My main issues with it were the handling and odd shift pattern. Had significant body roll on tight turns, and whenever you lay on the throttle under load the kick down would make the engine scream at 4500 rpm. We lost it to an accident last summer, but it went out pushing 260,000 miles with no significant engine trouble and minimal rust, an impressive feat for 16 years of punishing Michigan winters. I miss that thing.

Believe it or not, I still see quite a few of them in Greece. They were especially popular as CRDs, with the Turbodiesel V6 (like the Grand Cherokee of its day), but I have also come across a couple of them with both the 4.7 and the 5.7 V8s. I love the look of the Commander, looks clean and macho, like a big SUV should. But it came as a surprise to me that it's only a couple of inches longer than the Grand Cherokee of its day. I guess all these straight lines, along with its overall boxy shape, make it look larger. Very interesting.

First off, nothing that has over 200 horsepower is "underpowered". Perhaps your expectations and standards have gotten too damn high, just like your insurance rates, and you need a reality check. Second, I sold these brand new when I was working as a new car salesman at a Jeep dealer. When these first hit the lot, they sold before we could even get a chance to "dress them". Sold em wrapped in plastic with window stickers intact. The most popular models we sold were actually the V6 base models with only one or two options. This was back when SUVs were real SUVs and people didn't drive them like they were driving 4 wheel drive Corvettes. Commander answered a question only the Grand Cherokee owners asked for a long time..."Can we get a 3rd row seat?". Jeep answered. Obviously, if you didn't ask that question then the Commander was not meant for you.

[@TonicofSonic]

Jeeps are the inside joke that keeps on giving.

[@shanet7511]

I always liked these too. I think if they would've used a 6 speed to improve mpg and 0-60 speeds and added like 3 inches to the wheelbase and used that space for the third row it would've been alot more successful. The Grand Cherokee wasn't any better and it sold well.

Backwards. The Hemi of this era was junk. The 3.7 was damn near bulletproof. The 4.7 was just a 3.7 with 2 extra cylinders. It was more common and more abused. Timely oil changes were required for long term reliability. The timing chains were unforgiving to improper oil changes.

The 5.7L HEMI V8 was the only way to go the first couple model years since the other engines were underpowered. The 4.7L V8 got a huge power boost for the 2008 model year.
