This Year's Model Updates:

The familiar Overland name finds its way into the Jeep Commander lineup for 2007. This range-topping trim level features the 5.7-liter V8 as standard, 18-inch wheels (late availability) and special interior and exterior trim. Other changes this year include the renaming of the base model as the "Sport" and the introduction of some new equipment, including a flex-fuel version of the 4.7-liter V8, a power liftgate and a rearview camera.

Pros:
  • Strong V8 engines, quiet interior, capable in off-road situations, luxury features galore.
Cons:
  • Third-row seat is a kids-only zone, poor fuel economy from V8s, mediocre cargo capacity, spotty reliability.

    I love this Jeep. I have owned various 3 row vehicles. I owned an MPV and then an Excursion. This fits the bill in lots of ways and I find the external design to be very fun.

    Great new SUV. The 3.7 is a perfect choice and the 4.7 doesnt seem to perform any better. A lot of options with the Rocky Mountain package.

    Acceleration from 0 is pretty good. The only time I find myself wishing from more power is when merging onto a highway. The QT1 is real good, it perform excellent in the snow, dirt, and moderate off road.

  • A great jeep, and its got a Hemi! - 2007 Jeep Commander

    Commander Overland has everything I need, I tows 7500 lbs, it fun to drive and fits everywhere. Smooth and comfortable ride. I make 400 mile trips to Maine from NJ on a regular basis. I even have the stock goodyear forteras up to 46,000 miles so far. 3rd row seats fold flat into the floor. I carry two black labs back there with their own A/C vents when the seats are down. I tow a 24 4500 lb jet boat and a 20 3000 lb snowmobile trailer in heavy snow along mountain passes with complete confidence.

    I love this jeep. The second and third row seating is cramped, but Im the driver so it doesnt apply to me. Only comfortable for kid passengers.

  • I like it. - 2007 Jeep Commander
    By -

    Driver seat moves to where I can get comfortable. Good engine power, reasonable economy for V8 SUV. Transmission shifts crisp, automatic 2 speed transfer case is very quiet and works properly. I had reviewed and considered Ford Explorer, Expedition, Dodge Durango, Chrysler Aspen, GMC Envoy and Chevy Trailblazer. There were 2 warranty problems from the get go: E-brake was not connected from the factory and there is tick noise in front axle dealer is having trouble finding. Other than that I like the vehicle. It fits our needs with style. Mine actually was not a Limited edition but it was the only style I could select to complete tis review. Mine was a Sport edition with the 4.7L engine.

  • Love this vehicle - 2007 Jeep Commander

    I love this vehicle - it has been great in the snow and 4 wheeling. I do wish that it came with beefier tires, so I am putting a small lift and better tires on it. I see a lot of people have reported leaking problems. Yes - it did in mine too - but that was fixed with beads of silicone along the door frame. Jeep has instructions on their site on how to fix this. We did and we have had no problems since then. I love this ride and am completely content with it. I average about 15 Town/22 HWY.

  • Great Value - 2007 Jeep Commander
    By -

    We just bought this vehicle. I think the value is tremendous. The seating is very comfortable and roomy. I love the reclining second row! The leather feels thick and durable. The instrument panel is well laid out. The 4.7L engine has plenty of power and the ride is great. Taking it up to the snow this weekend to test out the handling in the snow.

  • Not happy with its reliability.... :-( - 2007 Jeep Commander
    By -

    We owned a 1995 Jeep, we were so pleased with this Jeep we decided to purchase the Commander, without reading up on the reviews. Big mistake, we have been taking the jeep to the dealer because it accelerates at a stop. i feel it has a mind of its own. We also had a problem with the windshield the weather strip unglued and we had to pay for it. Its hard to see at the back window, has too many blind stops. Will be trading it in for a toyota sienna.

  • 5th Jeep and sticking with them!!!!!! - 2007 Jeep Commander
    By -

    i still have my 4th Jeep a grand cherokee all have exceeded 330,000 no major issues. Bought the 07 commander in 09 with 20k on it now has 46k no issues. I haul boats campers and a 8 x 12 enclosed trailer and only drop 3 miles per gallon expect 15-18 mpg thats the ouch but its a tank in all terrains/conditions. We have 4 kids & moved from Michigan (awesome in snow) to Tennessee Mountains it rocks. Ya I had the sun roof leak issue took it all apart (didnt have to)all it was is a plugged drain hole in each front corner use a shop vac once in awhile to vacuum it out (no more issues $0 cost to repair its called maintenance). Ill drive this jeep to 300,000 easy. Jeep best bang for your buck!
