I have lost two starter engines in 90,000 miles, which appear to be component design flaws. The chronic stalling problem surfaced at 5,000 miles, and the chrysler technical center could not diagnose the problem. Stalling has occurred while driving the vehicle at <25 MPH (during left or right hand turns), which I believe is a safety hazard. Several times, a dealer cleaned the throttle body housing, but the problem would reoccur frequently. I notice that there are more than 10 technical service bulletins for the idle control motor, the fuel pump, stalling immediately at cold start, stalling after the transmission is placed into gear, etc. I believe that my vehicle is a lemon and dodge/chrysler has not dealt with me fairly.
