I was driving 70 MPH on i81 when my 2010 chrysler crossfire simply stopped running. I was beside a truck with one in front and 3 behind. Barely made it to the side of the road and caused a lot of breaking and honking. The 5th time this has happened, and was extremely dangerous.... The crossfire does not start after the engine stalls and the steering wheel locks up. I'm amazed that I made it out alive each time. Have spent $1800 trying to have it fixed but the chrysler dealership doesn't know what the problem is. This is ridiculous

At 50 MPH on a maryland state highway, the engine unexpectedly shut off resulting in the vehicle coasting to a stop in the traffic lane (there was no shoulder). Fortunately, I was not struck by another vehicle, but it was dark and vehicles coming over a small hill and slight curve had to take evasive action to avoid a collision. The engine would crank and start briefly and then sputter to a stop. Or, it would just crank and not fire or not crank at all. I was eventually, with assistance, able to push the vehicle off the roadway into a residential driveway. I had the vehicle towed to my residence for further diagnosis. The vehicle would later start and run normally for a short period, but then was plagued by a large list of issues to include: malfuncitoning indicator lights illuminated - brake light, brake wear indicator, traction control, stability control; p0600 data link loss code; vehicle not shifting out of park; speedometer not working, etc. Eventually, the engine would no longer crank at all. All issues were remedied by replacing the relay control module (rcm) - a part that was, and still is, manufactured by stribel. This part has know issues related to poorly soldered connections that cause no-start conditions or cause the vehicle to stall while operating. The rcm is also plagued by failure of the internal relays (engine control, fuel pump, traction control, secondary air pump) themselves which may be hastened by overheating as a result of the poor solder joints. If it has not already happened, someone is going to be seriously injured or killed when their chrysler crossfire (or any one of a number of mercedes benz vehicles utilizing the same stribel relay) stalls due to this widely know defect and is struck by another vehicle.

While driving on 08/17/14 my crossfire suddenly stalled and would not restart. I had to have the vehicle towed to a local chrysler dealer for repairs. The following repairs were needed: fuel pump #14073001 filter fu #14029003 relay non #08052328 these seem to be the same parts recently recalled on jeep vehicles. Will chrysler add my crossfire to the recall list? What can I do?

While driving car at 30 MPH just died steering locked up and no response. After sitting for about an hour and restarted. Happened again about 2 days later. Hooked up to diagnosis machine and it said it was the cam shaft possession sensor that was replaced. Car ran fine for about a week and the issue began again. Hooked it up and it said it was same part. Took part back got new one no response. Took car to dealer but machine read no problem. Changed crank shaft sensor after googling similar issues but issue still exists. We have spent several dollars on parts that do not resolve the issue. I am just thankful for the first time it happened to have not been on the highway and just on a side street close to home. We have not been able to drive the car because u never know when it may stall out and if or when it will restart. After goggling many others are having same issue and I don't know how this could possibly be safe more how no one can resolve or fix the issue. So basically paid $10,000 for a nice yard ornamnet at this time. Very frustrated and wishing chrysler would step up. Owning 3 dodge/chrysler vehicles at this time is to the point where I would never own another if this issue is not resolved soon!
