125000 for a Commander? Oh wait, that's an investment, being so low KM, it's probably going to be displayed forever and price will continuously go up. For that money you have options, a lot of options.

That's one low mileage DJ indeed. It's unfortunate I got such bad experiences with my own, and had I been driving it 100% of the time, I'd blame it on myself -very lead footed over here - but this was the kids hauler, family mover and mostly driven by my dad/wife to and from school/work. Super gentle people, exceptional drivers. It just so happened that with mine a lot of bugs happened, notwithstanding the ridiculous suspension bolt unfastened that came from the factory and could have caused a catastrophic accident. Anyway, everything's done and over with, the deal I got was totally worth it. I've moved on. Let me know when you find that Commander, I've been looking for one as well, 5.7 Hemi

You guys are hilarious, I agree, the taste can be bad if both dealerships and Chrysler CS central drop the ball on the customer. It happened to me, and the blood pressure got pretty close to "pop" pressures for sure. Commander is awesome, I just sold my '86 CJ7 because ...well, wife and kids and I need to adult more. As a side note, my Mercedes just got written off and instead of buying a new car I went out and found a 2005 Dodge Durango, and I swear, it's the best Dodge Journey ever Before I get run over by beliebers, I swear this thing hauls arse. 5.7 Hemi, just purrs, like the day it left the factory floor. It has a couple cosmetic things to address, a hitch to add, some new keys to order, but this is the DJs older, bigger, badder, better brother for sure. Leather interior, 7 seater... almost as good as a Commander, not as 4x4able as one, but the road manners are beyond fantastic. I have a feeling it's going to be my new "project", the people/family, the boat, the "JEEP", the hunting quad hauler.

Nope, 2012 one, had it not been for all the brakes, mechanical issues it would have died with me. I absolutely loved the car when I bought it. The subsequent issues kind of ruined it.

Well, I guess it was a long time coming, but didn't see it coming as fast as it did. I got close to 91000km with it, with many bumps and bruises and definitely with a lot of headshakes to the dealer service levels and what's worse, corporate Chrysler CS. To summarize the issues Under 10k rear tires were bald Hard shake under load brake or emergency brake on hwy were "explained" by repeated dealers as normal ABS Sometimes around 30-40k we got a nail in the rear left tire, went to Costco for a fix, they found the suspension arm bolt 90% out of the socket. What's messed up though is until then I had a check up with "piece of mind" inspection done every 5000km with the oil changes. Sure enough, rotors were super warped - sorry buster, you're over 20k km, no go- even if aforementioned under 10k km rear tires bald, shake etc. OK, after 3 different dealerships I found one that cared. They tried to fix - left head - cylinder #6 - tranny issues - heads again - tranny issues again... I was all but ready to move on and into a 2015 Platinum F150 or Pathfinder when the sales and manager guy I had always been in touch with at this last dealership called me over for a special. And a special it was indeed. They paid off my Journey and some, and put me into a 0% Dodge Caravan R/T that feels, looks and drives nothing like a minivan. Albeit the waste of time getting to this, being into a car that had 10km on board and drove like your Journey used to ...kind of makes up for the hectic last 4 years. If anyone in Vancouver is thinking of dealing with the same dealership it's Destination Chrysler/Dodge in North Vancouver. Tell them I sent you, Jason and Pablo are awesome guys to deal with. Now ...let's build that Power Wagon

That's exactly it #4 Thank you sir!

My dad had an unfriendly building garage door close on him and it popped the cap off ...didn't notice until I got home and the cap is lost. Any idea where I can buy one? Search is futile so far.

Too funny. I don't see the use personally, I go camping most of the summer and the way it is the DJ makes it to pretty good spots without dings and scratches or ...difficulties. Personally I don't see the point. The RT's suspension handles my driving in hard turns upwards of 130 kmph. No matter how much I'd lower it I wouldn't try to match the Mercedes wagon speed in those turns. I can easily tackle them with the Mercedes with 160+, the DJs top is 140 with my butt cheeks tightly squeezed. It's a family car, comfortable family car. Save your money or put RT suspension on it.

Too funny.

I wish they carried the big ones, they don't I don't know how many have been through this like me, I chose them because I had bought as well parts for my CJ7 for them in the past and recently. Price was good, service good. It's just the hassle of going through the return/search and purchase again. Plus, the 13"/12.9" I think are 100-150 US more everywhere else I could find them now.

Is yours a FWD only? Then two tires would solve it, otherwise for the AWD models you need all fours.

Quick update, whomever is buying EBC brakes online (I got them at autopartswarehouse.com) check your dimensions first. My 2012 DJ RT came with big brakes and they sold me the SXT model Big brakes front 13" diameter, rear 12.9" diameter. Spoke to several people at Autohouse and that's what got sent to them for the year, the problem though is that they have them listed as the RT hardware for all subsequent years 2013/14/15 etc They're coming through with the refund, at least they're amazing in that response. Waste of time on my part though, I had opened both fronts and took off the old hardware before realizing they are the wrong size.

Hi Frank, I agree wholeheartedly with everything that you are saying and I wouldn't feel one bit of discontent to the whole experience, HAD I NOT BROUGHT all this to their attention since 5000km on the car. I am so, so sorry that I trusted them, lesson learned for the future though. Yup, DIY muddle here and there. I knew previous year had smaller brakes, not this. My mistake there

I swear I am getting to the end of my patience. Ordered all new EBC parts, and they sent the wrong stuff. Original front 13" diameter, they sent me fronts 11.9" diameter. Seriously, some people do not deserve payday.

Awesome, thanks, will do.
