I was just driving then out of nowhere. No warning No lights inmitted on dash no idea the engine will shut off. Replace alternator, Battery,Starter,3 PCM,still no luck. Noticed that PCM could have been the so that's why I went through 3 of em. New ,Use ,and Refurbish one. The dealership mechanic noticed that PCM would shut off and henced (no bus) would illuminate. Happened quite often scary part is that no warning of any source would appear on freeway residential anywhere. Engine will shut off while driving.

One morning I was taking my 9-year-old daughter to school and our truck just stalled while I was driving. Thank Allah that there was no heavy traffic and no one got hurt. That incident has my daughter scared. I took it to the mechanic they read the diagnostic fixed what codes came up and still my truck is not operating properly. The truck still stalls while driving the mechanic has informed me. I have had my IAC, MAP sensor, TPS, ignition coil, distributor, and canister purge valve replaced.

I was in the freeway running 65 miles/hour and suddenly my durango just stalled and engine just shut off without warning.there was no code showing up. I brought to mechanic and unable to find the problem. There are times that it will shut off the engine and I have to wait for 15-20 minutes and it will start again. Then afterwards, it will die again. Help!!!!!

Vehicle stalls without warning. May stall multiple times same day, then not for a few weeks. Vehicle may be hot or cold, and outside temperature doesn't seem to affect stalling. Turning or driving straight. Public street or straight as in using driveway. Stationary, may start then stall, or while in motion. Not one date - all the time. Date below is is just to fill in the blank.

We just got another call on this 2000 durango apparently the issues are the same for every dodge durango from 1999 to 2007 vehicle stalls at any speed at any time any where wet or dry common problem on all durangos and no easy fix or solutions not even from chrysler we americans are wondering when you will issue a safety recall on this particular brand model and years or will you just ignore this email until someone's stalls on the 70 -75 miles per hour fast lane of the highway with there kids or loved ones and is killed ?? Come the federal safety agency this is a very serious matter.
