Some Jeep Commander owners report experiencing weak crank issues even with a new battery and confirmed starter and alternator functionality. These problems may stem from ignition issues that prevent the engine from starting properly due to a lack of spark. Additionally, weak connections at the starter can lead to slow cranking, as poor connections may strain the starter motor. Owners have also noted that if the battery voltage drops significantly during cranking—below the expected levels—it may indicate a need for a new battery or starter. Furthermore, some owners have encountered delayed starts or no response when turning the key, which could be linked to damaged or malfunctioning fuses. Therefore, it is crucial for owners to inspect ignition components, starter connections, battery voltage, and fuses to effectively troubleshoot and resolve these issues.
