Pedal Commander for Jeep Gladiator — Unlock What the Pentastar Is Hiding
The Gladiator's 3.6L Pentastar and 3.0L EcoDiesel make solid power — but every drive-by-wire vehicle has factory throttle lag deliberately programmed in. For a truck you're expected to use on trail, that hesitation translates to imprecise power delivery at the exact moments where precision matters most.
Pedal Commander removes that factory limitation. It plugs inline with the throttle pedal sensor and gives you 36 configurable sensitivity settings across 4 driving modes. Crawl a rock garden in Sport+, cruise efficiently in Eco on the highway home. You decide what the Gladiator does when your foot moves — not the factory calibration.
Installs in under 5 minutes. No tune needed. No ECU touch. Fully removable and transferable.
4 Driving Modes
Eco — relaxed throttle curve for fuel-efficient highway driving
City — smooth, linear response for daily driving and low-speed control

9 sensitivity levels per mode, adjustable live from the Bluetooth app. No need to stop or pull over.

FAQ
Will this void my Gladiator's warranty? No — Pedal Commander connects to the throttle position sensor and does not modify any engine software or ECU. It does not affect your factory warranty.
Does it work with the EcoDiesel? Yes — PC78 is compatible with the 3.0L EcoDiesel V6 as well as the Pentastar and Hurricane gasoline engines.
Does it work with manual transmission? Yes — Pedal Commander works with both automatic and manual transmission Gladiators.
How does this help on trail? The Gladiator's factory throttle delay is most noticeable in low-speed technical terrain — rock crawling, loose gravel, sand, and mud — where precise power modulation makes the difference between clean lines and wheel spin. Sport+ gives you immediate response so your inputs translate exactly when you make them.
How do I install it? Plug-and-play — connects inline with the factory throttle pedal sensor under the dash. No cutting, no soldering, no permanent modification. Under 5 minutes. Download the Pedal Commander app on iOS or Android to access all 36 settings via Bluetooth.
