Traveling I-5 at 65 MPH when the car lost all power. No response in gas pedal, engine stuttered. Pulled off freeway and put it in park and turned the car off. Waited for around 10 -20 seconds then restarted the vehicle. Then all power and driveability came back. This is the 5th time this has happened for this car and becoming more frequently.

While was trying to turn into parking spot my charger suddenly died. When turned the car back on was able to start right back up. This has been happening more when tryong to turn the wheel all the way from a stop position or moving. Have almost been hit a few times when it just stops

Power shuts off randomly, stalling, acceleration lost, but will fire right back up if you flip the key around or put in neutral. Very unsafe if traffic coming and it shuts right down. Also while in park it's shuts off

Car will shut off going 45 MPH, at a stop light (0 MPH) or when crossing traffic intersections for examples (at most going 10 or 15 MPH). I will attempt to restart and the car will start up, stall up and then shut off again - when this happens, I lose power steering. I have to switch gears from drive to park and then turn the car off and then on again in hopes it will start. As you're driving, you can feel when the car is about to cut off, it throttles ahead a bit and revs, then the car beeps and turns off, while the gear is in drive and turning my wheel does nothing. I notice that this issue would usually happen after a fill up my gas tank, so I started only filling up halfway ,but the issue still persists. This issue became heavily frequent yesterday where the car stalled and cut off at least 4 different times while making a 7 mile drive back home. This was very very scary in my eyes, especially with a passenger in my seat. This is a huge safety concern because the vehicle is shutting off while in motion and powering steering is lost. If this happens on the highway going 60+ miles per hour, or turning into oncoming traffic, there is a guaranteed accident, possibly resulting in serious injury or death. I believe there is an issue with the gas tank and the evap canister that causes the sensors to think that gas is overfilling the engine, which shuts off the car. This was filed under the federal safety agency pe13-016 (which appears to be closed or inaccessible- https://www-odi.the federal safety agency.dot.gov/acms/cs/documentlist.xhtml?docid=pe13016&doctype=inv). This safety concern really needs to be looked into.

The car will shut off randomly, the error code keeps pointing back to the ECM and I have had that replaced now it is doing it again and there is no warning when it happens on the freeway it jolts like it wants to shutoff but it doesn't the RPM's go down and it revs back up, it started just with it having the RPM's go down and rev back up randomly and its been happening for 2 years now it just shuts off and starts back up immediately but sometimes ill drive a couple feet and it will die again. It has been in and out of the shop for the last 8 months. They have sent the computer back to have it analysed and to repair the new one I got now. When driving it also shuts off and then just starts up back by itself. I see this everywhere on the internet and forums, some say ECM needs to be replaced other say the fuel tank and the other says something about the key fob not recognizing the key. I want this investigated and a recall to be issued. From everyone I have spoken to every single 2006 dodge charger has this problem with the 5.7 lt with the hemi.

My car's engine stalls without warning while driving. I had problems with this when I bought the car within the same week from a used car dealer. It now affects my headlights by making them flash on and off while driving. The car has been in and out of the shop for the past year and no one can seem to find the issue. There is a past time device installed which interfered with the security system. The dealership took out the security system and shortly thereafter the engine stalls began. Engine stalls occur while driving or stopped at traffic lights. It happens randomly but not often. The headlights happen everyday and is getting worse. The vehicle is becoming undrivable but no service tech can find the issue.

The vehicle will stall at a stop sign or stop light. The lights will flicker and the gauges will go to the max amounts and then back to zero. The car restarts and runs fine after this happens, but it keeps reoccurring.
