I drove to town, stopped and turned off my engine for an 30 minute wait with construction. It started and I drove to visit my son. I turn off the engine, stayed a bit to visit, went to go home and it wouldn't start. Finally got it to start and drove it home and parked it. Drove to town a couple of days later and it died while driving, barely made it to town. Looked for information on the net only to find this is a very common problem and a major safety issue. This vehicle dies while driving and control of the vehicle at highway speeds is highly dangerous. Why hasn't chrysler issued a recall? Are they waiting for someone (or an entire family) to die? Is that really what it takes, a loss of life before anything will be done? I've read that it could be the PCM, the PCM wiring harness, or a computer chip/sensor/relay something or other under the air cleaner. No real, permanent, fix at this point, a lot of people are struggling to determine the cause and a fix for this problem. Why isn't chrysler helping? Chrysler doesn't back their product? No wonder american people opt for imports, they are reliable and built to last. How about doing the right thing chrysler and step up!
