I just read that in JK magazine last night (about the computor learning as it goes).

Yep, read that as well. Said that the computer takes up to 800 miles to "learn" your driving style. Seems the engine really tends to pick up after that point.

They replaced the TIPM yesterday and all of my software is up to date. I asked them if this is the fix for the stall issue or an attempt at it. They said that it should fix it and that DC had been working on it and this was a very recent fix. I don't know if they were just blowing smoke or not. We'll see. Only time will tell. It did fix something that i was wondering about. When i first got my jeep i could have swore that when i got to a certain speed all the doors would automatically lock but then one day i noticed that they weren't doing it. I looked in the manual and there wasn't anything in there about it. Then i started wondering if i had lost my mind and just imagined it. Well, when i left the service dept. yesterday, guess what, the doors automatically locked when i got up to speed. I called the service dept. and told them my experience with the locks and they said that the computer is either programmed to do or not and it must have lost the memory sometime after i got it. I'm so excited!

I will keep you up-to-date if i have anymore problems. Keep your fingers crossed.

mine did this w/ less than 1000 miles on it. the motor didn't shut off but i was driving back roads @ night. i lost lights, steering, & brakes for 2-5 seconds. not a big deal but in a tight turn or higher speed or under breaking it could have been bad. as i said everything shut down other than the motor then everything lit up and returned to normal function. it has not happened since. i got mine on saint pat's day.

Took mine to the dealer on Friday, around 2:00 they had it ready. They said they replaced the ignition switch. They also said that they have seen this before on other jeeps (did not go into detail). Hopefully this will fix it???? It seems to happen every 2-3k miles. Maybe I should just treat it as my service engine / oil change notification.

Has anyone else had their ignition switch replaced? If so have you stalled since?

Sounds like the same thing they just did to mine. Mine stalled about a week and a half ago. We also noticed that after the stall, the automatic door locking feature quit working. They replaced a module today, and now the doors are locking again once you hit a certain speed (I think 15mph). I'm not sure if it was the TIPM they replaced, but it was a "module" to do with the security system. I will have to look at the paperwork. They seemed to think that it could have caused the stall. Only time will tell, but I'm glad to hear that my dealer came up with the same fix as your dealer. I'll keep my fingers crossed!

I've had my jeep for about 7 months now and my wife said it stalled on her again yesterday. it has about 13000 miles on it now. going highway speed about 70 mph. it shut down for about 3 seconds and then came back. took it to the dealer last month, they said we were the first that have had this problem at their dealership and haven't heard of anything like it anywhere else. They couldn't find anything wrong and said if it did it again bring it back and they would drive it around for a day try to find out anything. Um......yea it's happened 4 times in 13000 miles do they think its going to just take a day. thinking about calling around and see what other dealers say.

OK, so for what it is worth, the NHTSA has opened an investigation on the Commander for very similar complaints:
