Car was cutting out at random times while driving. Sometimes it would restart itself within 5 seconds sometimes I had to throw it in neutral and restart it. Sometimes all the lights would come on the dash, sometimes no lights. Was not generating a code. It happened at all speeds, very dangerous. Twice I took it in and they couldn't fix it. I thought about it and was suspicious of the key. I put the car in park, started it and tapped on the key. The car stalled. I did this while driving also. I took it to the dealer, told them what I discovered and they replaced the winn(?) module for the small sum of $472.00. The module is where the key goes in. It's my understanding that some other chrysler vehicles have been recalled for this problem. They obviously didn't get mine. This happened this summer.

My vehicle stalled while turning into a driveway. I had to coast to a stop and restart the vehicle. It has stalled many times on me while at a low speed. Usually it happens while turning corners, going into driveways and sometimes at stops. I have almost been involved in accidents because of it stalling while turning. I have taken the car to my mechanic several times and have had a myriad of things fixed but to no avail it still does the stalling. If you know of any problems with this vehicle stalling I would like to know what I can do to fix this problem and if chrysler has had this problem with other vehicles. I feel unsafe as I never know when it will happen.

I feel unprotected because my vehicle automatic shut off and could cause death or serious injury. The performance of this vehicle and its equipment is leading me into unreasonable anxiety for my safety due to the sudden stopping in heavy traffic, leading to no steering power, no electric signals, and grave possibility of death. This vehicle is only five (5) years of age and should not be showing signs of inefficiency.
