PEDAL COMMANDER for Jeep Wrangler JL 2018-2026 Throttle Response Controller - Anti-Theft, 4 Modes 36 Settings, App Control, Plug-and-Play - Off-Road Trail & Rock Crawling Performance Upgrade

The Pedal Commander has been on my list for my 2010 2-door JK for approximately four years. I was hesitant to purchase due to its price, but I finally purchased the unit, and the resulting difference in throttle response is significant. The previous lack of uphill acceleration was notably painful; this is now a non-issue. The Pedal Commander should have been one of my first purchases when I acquired the Jeep. Installation (This process is easily verified by numerous YouTube videos). Installation is a remarkably straightforward process, taking an estimated 15–30 minutes maximum. Before beginning, decide on the mounting location for the module. Options include using the included double-sided tape on the dash or placing it over the speaker holes to the left of the steering wheel, as is common in many video guides. Personalized Stealth Installation: I chose to pursue a stealth installation. This involves removing the panel underneath the steering wheel, which gives access to two 10mm bolts securing a metal plate. After removing the plate, the wiring can be easily run to the gas pedal plug. 1. Using the provided alcohol towelette, clean the front of the removed metal plate and allow it to dry. 2. The commander’s module is then secured to the plate with the adhesive tape. 3. Reinstalling the plate and the cover ensures the Pedal Commander is perfectly concealed—a definite advantage against theft. App Setup: Seamless Process Ensure you have the unit’s serial number, which is located on the packaging. Download the official Pedal Commander app for your smartphone, and after inputting the serial number, your device will be synced. All module settings can then be adjusted directly through your phone. I personally find the “Sport” mode offers the optimal balance of response and usability. The best feature is the ability to easily test various modes to select the perfect setting for your driving needs. This device is an essential upgrade. Enjoy the renewed responsiveness of your vehicle.

This thing is awesome! I installed very easily the kit as described in the installation instructions! It only took me about 15 minutes to properly install this. I have a 6 speed manual and let me tell you the difference in the throttle response is wild. The responsiveness of the pedal in sport + makes it feel a lot quicker even though you’re not adding anymore tuning to the engine. The lag you get from factory really makes you question how quick your vehicle really can be. It is function-able for any party whether you want more power or better MPG. I would 5 out of 5 recommend!

I purchased this device for use on my 2010 Jeep Wrangler because I tow a heavy cargo trailer full of carpentry tools over long freeway distances and the Jeep struggles to maintain speed at 60 MPH. The Jeep's power is enough to tow with, but it gets a real workout lugging a 3000 pound trailer for 3 hours. Before I added this device, my cruise control fluctuated as much as 7 MPH on the long, slow freeway hills. The Cruise Control shifted the Jeep into lower gears a lot to try and regain its speed. With this device set to the most aggressive "sport" sensitivity, my cruise control now fluctuates barely around 2 MPH while on the gentle freeway ups and downs, and the transmission seldom downshifts to regain speed. That makes the three hour drive a lot more comfortable for me. When I'm not towing, I set it to a medium aggressiveness setting which improves the chronic lag time in factory throttle responses, while still providing smooth acceleration from a stop. If I keep the setting on high aggressiveness without the trailer hitched up, the vehicle lurches when I leave a stop sign. So I just tune it down to a lesser setting and it starts and drives very smoothly. I'm very happy with this device. It was an easy installation, and gives me a lot of choices for how my Jeep will respond to the touch of my throttle. It's GREAT for towing on Cruise Control. I can't really say if it helped my gas mileage. Towing that large trailer with an older Wrangler JK is asking a lot of this small v6 engine. I get roughly 10-11 MPG while towing as opposed to about 16-17 without the trailer on the same trip. If the gas mileage is improved it's not by a significant amount during my use as a tow vehicle. An important thing to note is that there is still a lag in throttle response if the Automatic Transmission needs to downshift. This device curtails the throttle response lag, but doesn't affect Transmission lag. Perhaps those of you who drive Jeeps with manual transmissions will like this device even better than I do.

Awesome upgrade! Much more responsive!

Haven’t really seen much change in mileage. It isn’t any worse. I love the quicker response though. It works well. Easy to use. Easy plug and play system. A little awkward to get your head under the dash to see the gas peddle plug but doable. The 3m sticker does not do the job. I added a small screw as well (not supplied). Works great. Definite value. If they lowered the price a bit I’m sure they’d still get good margins but I am glad I have it. Would they still make a good margin back if they lowered the price a bit? It’s a tad pricey for how simplistic the device is. Glad I have it though. It makes a difference in the vehicles response time for sure. This is how all vehicles should come stock.

I recently purchased the Pedal Commander after many years of wondering if it would perform as advertised. I've owned my Jeep since 2008 and have always been bothered by the throttle lag. Fast forward seventeen years and I finally decided to give it a try. After receiving it I read the instructions and installed it as directed. I drove the vehicle and noticed a difference immediately. The lag from a dead stop was eliminated and the engagement was instant. Driving the vehicle is more pleasant than it was in factory form as the early model Jeep JK was low on power and the lag was extremely annoying. While I don't believe this adds any power, the elimination of the throttle lag is big plus.

Daaaaaaaaaang! (2007 Jeep Wrangler/3.8) Sport 2: it holds the RPMs better when I up shift in my manual/6-speed trans. Example: before PC, I would shift up to 4th on the freeway at about 3300 RPM and by the time I got in gear, my RPMs were at 2000 or 2100, lagging to acceleration. Now, I’m doing the same thing and when I get into 4th gear, it’s about 2500/2600 RPM - allowing me to get to speed faster on the freeway. That’s just 1 example. From start off: I can get out of 1st gear sooner and I still have to acclimate to the sensitivity, but IT IS SO MUCH BETTER. MOST NOTICEABLE: I always had to downshift going up a hill in 6th gear when I got to about 2200 RPMs. NOT ANYMORE!!! I just press the gas and I can feel a slight acceleration and am able to maintain speed up the hill and I NO LONGER HAVE TO DOWNSHIFT (on a slight incline). Amazon delivered it late (by a day) and I’ve never been so excited to get something, due to the positive reviews, so they made me sad for a day. It didn’t let me down when I got it though. Now, I clearly understand now what the company and people are saying that it won’t add HP. It didn’t make my Jeep a performance sedan or SUV by any means. BUY IT, I should have when I first got my Jeep. Install: Make it easy on yourself and take the two bolts out that holds the metal plate behind the knee panel. You’ll be able to see better. I had to do it blind, because I’m not the smallest person, but I saw what I was about to do. I bet this saved me a lot of time. Install was under 10 min. I mounted it under my dash and strictly use the Bluetooth app. I roll with my top and doors off all summer - I’d kick someone *** if they stole this thing. 1 month UPDATE: still going strong. No issues after about 1000 miles. I go between City +2 and Sport -2 for in town driving. Bluetooth connects every time. 6mo update: Still working like a charm.

I probably read every review there is about this product before breaking out the Benjamins' and they were almost ALL good! My Pedal Commander came today and I waisted no time after work to install it into my Jeep. It off almost all of the reviews, I think that there was only one or two that talked about how hard it was to access the factory plug on the top of the throttle, so I just kinda figured those guys just didn't have the experience or knowledge or whatever. It off all of the reviews they were the only ones telling the truth! At least in a 2016 Unlimited Rubicon, hard to get to, isn't even a good description..... try next to impossible. After 2 hours of becoming the new circus contortionist, I was finally able to wiggle out the factory plug with the tip of one finger, and manipulate the new clip into place. So, finally hooked up I turned the key, and then realized that I missed a step. I had the key to the jeep with me in the jeep.... which gives the CPU power. So when I unplugged the throttle and plugged in the new one, it lit up the check engine light..... so. After getting my programmer out and many attempts and many codes for left and right, low and high beam plus others, I was finally able to reset it. So finally, test out the new Commander! It does work, I will give that to them, but nothing like everyone makes it sound. It only makes it "peppy" in the first throttle position. Another words, only from a dead stop. If you are driving down the road, there is ABSOLUTELY NO DIFFERENCE in any setting. This, unfortunately for me, it's not what my jeep needed... Street cars and trucks, this would be great for racing off the line, but that's about it. For the amount of difference this made for me, unfortunately, it was a $300 mistake and totally not worth the money. Oh yeah!, If they put half the effort into the design and tech of the unit as they did to the box that it came in....... lol Sorry. Big waste of money.

Does exactly what it says on the label! Easy to install and set up, download the app and off you go, I chose to hide my controller and use the app as I use the anti theft setting! It says anti theft but after forgetting to turn it off and backing off the drive and crawling down the road a few hundred meters and then trying to pull out in to traffic and finding that pushing down on throttle pedal did nothing I remembered I had the unit installed 🤣 so if they wanted to steal your car they would be better off pushing it as it would go faster 🤣 the different settings are noticeable! The eco setting is like having the hand brake on or having your elderly mother driving like miss daisy behind the wheel! The engine pick up is real slow! The town mode is like the standard setting before you install the unit, the sport mode has a quicker pedal response and the sport + is…. Well I try not to use it due to price of fuel and the number of points on my license 🤣 yes you can tell the difference, you push on the pedal and off you go…..it’s a not a tuning device that increases the bhp of your engine but it removes the delay in the operation of the pedal so the pick up is quicker and more noticeable! If you have a big lazy auto I’d recommend it, mines a jeep wrangler and it was recommended on a couple of the owners forums and I’m glad I fitted it, it has made a difference in the driving quality of the vehicle, no more delay in pick up when you push the go pedal

Se siente muchísimo la diferencia !!

Makes a Wrangler 392 even more fun to drive! Installation took 5 mins as all plug and play. Bluetooth connection works very well to change the drive modes. Worth every dirham spend.

Allez y ça fonctionne bien, à voir le mode eco pour ma consommation car pas assez rouler avec encore mais tout fonctionne parfaitement

Easy install and works great so far. No complaints. The adhesive isn’t the stickiest. It just fell off from where I tried to mount it but not a deal breaker
