P60 - recall / the federal safety agency 14v‑634 (alternator) on sunday 01/11/14 at 7:00pm at night my 2012 dodge charger with only 39,000 plus miles, (basically brand new) completely shut down in san andreas california on a back country road in the middle of the road at night, with my fiance driving and our two minor children in the back seat. All electrical systems shut down completely and the car actually put itself into park in the middle of the road at a stop sign and busy intersection. No hazard lights were available or working and this became an extremely dangerous situation.. Chp was dispatched right away. (evidently by a passing driver who called 911 emergency). Chp arrived at the site, parked their patrol car behind our car and used its hazard lights to warn oncoming drivers of this hazard. Chp immediately called aaa, (for an emergency hazard situation), to remove our car off the road and out of traffic. Chp stated our car, being in the middle of the road with no hazard light capability, was an immediate life threatening danger to my fiance and our two children and all other passing motorists. Aaa arrived right away and towed our car approx. 40 feet off to the side of the road and immediately charged us a $200 hazard vehicle towing fee. Aaa dispatched another tow truck as this tow truck driver was off duty and he only responded due to the emergency of the situation, (the call by the chp for a hazard vehicle).we had no alternative but to have the car towed to our residence in columbia california. The next morning, monday, 1/12/14, century service extended warranty administration requested the car towed to a full dodge dealership. I had the car towed from columbia california to modesto california dodge chrysler for $110. (the closest full dodge chrysler dealership). The dealer diagnosed the car.
