Vehicle shut off WHILE DRIVING ON THE ROAD out of nowhere after running perfectly fine and since this incident the car won't start at all. Had the car diagnosed and it said it's the "Transmission control module"

About 3 weeks I let my cousin use car. She made it to indy twice from fort wayne, and once back home before I came to get car she stated she had set alarm off and then car wouldn't start. I had it towed and they couldn't find the problem completely but thought fuel pump. Car turns over perfect just won't fire. So fuel pump replace and about week and a half later it's starts to not start up on first ignite. Sometimes it takes me two-three tries then it starts. Also something weird 2 times while pumping gas and leaving car on, the car shuts off as soon as gas starts filling. Today for the 3rd time I started pumping gas and my car shut off but this time wouldn't start. It once again turns over but won't start. I had it towed again!!!! Any suggestions? Could 2006 cars need reset to on computer

So once again this car is having issues with the fuel pump system. I have a 2006 chrysler pacifica (86616) and one day when driving my car just stalled out and would not start for quite some time. I took it to a chrysler dealership here in baytown and was told that the plastic evap line may have broken due to a design flaw of the line being not only too short but also made of a harden plastic that is supposed to be rubber instead. I was luck enough to be by myself but if I had my god daughter in the car with me it would have been worst or I could have been seriously injured. Now chrysler wants close to $800 to fix the issue when in fact this was a design flaw to begin with from the start. I am highly upset and also scared to drive any chrysler car because of the piss poor design and want to know what and if chrysler will even do anything to help me and my mom out.
