Driving and car cuts off without warning. Could be going 35 mph could be going 65 mph. Have to shift to N to cut car back on. Sometimes it won't cut back on. I pressed gas after light turned green in a busy intersection and car cut off in middle of intersection. This has happened in more than one occasion and almost caused many accidents. Throws code for crankshaft position sensor. It has been replaced and still not helping. Also replaced throttle body position sensor. This is happening with A LOT of these vehicles. All online forums talk of the same problem. Don't know if it's the computer itself because the check engine light rarely comes in when this happens. Then it throws random codes.

While the vehicle is moving and with my feet on the gas pedal the rpms drop, the car shudders. About 5 seconds later the rpms jump up but doesn't gain speed. Also the car jerks before accelerating very slow. No codes but clearly there's a problem.

Had to replace computer in my car twice. Front driver side headlight wiring keeps burning out. Afraid this car will catch fire with myself and my family in it. Vehicle stopped in moving traffic almost causing accidents. Back and forth to dealerships for guess work. No faith in dodge anymore. Stopped several more times after leaving the dealership. Was without a car for so long almost lost my employment. Car would start most mornings just turn but not crank. Will upload documents when I go pick it up from the dealership yet again.

The car engines lights came on while driving the electric throttle body light and ecs lights came on. The car is losing oil and overheating while driving. I took the car to a shop and they found an oil leak but don't know exactly where the oil leak is coming from. Oil is spilling all over the transmission. I contacted dodge since the car has 89,000 miles on it and they ignored the problem. The car sputters in the middle of intersection it drives at 2000 rpms without gas pedal being press. The brakes depress on their own. Why is there no investigation done on these dodge avengers. Do someone have to lose their life in order to fix these issues?

Took to mechanic said it was the throttle acculator control system (per what the code showed) dealer says not under warranty this car barley has 80,000 miles and only 4 years old.

Passenger side air vents blow only cold air when using heater. Driver side blows heated air with a electric burning smell. Cruise control will not stay engaged. Traction control continually engages while driving on dry roads.
