I should have said to check that too. Thnx jpicazio! To check your trans fluid properly, start the Commander, let it warm up and slowly run through the gears (P, R, N, D, N, R, P) a couple of times to get all the plates filled with fluid. Then check the level on the dip stick. Check the easy stuff first.
 
Jeep commander transmission problems, same issue

Gforman18 - I also have a 2008 HEMI limited that seems a little off. The past 4-5 days it has topped 100 degrees and it has acted up a little like yours. I am not sure if the guy that owned it before me has had the fluid and filter changed in 93,000 miles. I was going to handle that this weekend and see if it might help out. I will get back with you to see if that helps. It may just be that with the high temps, the trans is getting super hot and not shifting like normal. To be determined.
