Dt: the vehicle shuts off while driving it happened without warning. Car had been driven for about one minute the vehicle was only moving about 5 MPH or less. The vehicle was put in park and restarted just fine. A month later the same thing happened at a stop sign, this time the vehicle shut off while sitting at stop. There was no warning this time either. Owner doesnt remember if the electric in vehicle was off or not. This time the vehicle started right back again. Then owner contacted dealership, there is nothing the dealer can do about it becuase no info in the system about it. The dealership needed the vehicle in order to inspect, then the owners couldnt take to dealer at that time because they needed the vehicle. This happened again with shutting off several times. Then on june 2, at approximately 30 MPH, the vehicle shutt off again. This time the vehicle started back up again and the vehicle was taken to dealer. The dealer reported no problem, the diagnostic computer showed no error codes. Then stalled again the 24th of june. The vehicle was traveling about 45 this time, and making a left turn, the vehicle shut off in the middle of the intersection. The vehicle shut off again later that day, the vehicle were on, air conditioning, all shut off. The dash lights went out. There was no electricity in the vehicle except for the tail and head lights, and the vehicle had no brake lights, and this was dangerours becuase this time the vehicle shut off at night. The vehicle started again and was driven for the rest of the trip. Then vehicle was towed home.

The new dodge 2005 with the hemi engine is stalling at point of acceleration. My wife and kids were in the car at a stop light and when she went to accelerate the car stalled. Took it to the dealer and was told nothing was wrong...happened 7 more times. I have had the car for a month. Someone is going to die if we don't get this resolved. I went to mycarstats.com and found many more people with the same problem! Brand new dodge durangos 2005 cars stalling on on ramps, intersections and all we get is that they cant find the problem from the dealer and chrysler states they haven't heard of any issues. Complainant # with chrysler is [xxx]. Vin [xxx]. *js information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6)
New 2005 dodge durango stalls unexpectedly at low speeds. Dealer replaced ignition 1st time; no repair done 2nd time since they couldn't find reason; replaced recalled fuel tank;now this time they won't do anything.
Dt: when coming to a stop vehicle died. Once at a stop sign. Vehicle died was when the gas applied. There were no dash lights when the vehicle diesd this was a 2005 vehicle. There had been 4 stalling problems. The vehicle idles in high and whines. The idle is not all the time. Vehicle has been in the dealership for repairs 3 or 4 times. The climate was not a factor. The vehicle had contiually had ongoing problems. The dealership tried to fix the stalling problem. The computer has been reset , and an idle switch was added. Right now consumer is waiting for the tools from chrysler to fix the recall part. The consumer called in advance for an appointment. Dealer kept the vehicle all day, but they vdidn't have the correct tools.
My husband & I purchased a 2005 dodge durango with a hemi about a month ago. About 2 weeks ago (may 11, 2005), I put the durango in reverse (I was in a stop position), and the engine just died out. I put it in park and started the engine again. I drove to my mom's to pick her up. Again I was in a stop position, put the durango in reverse, and the engine died out again. After I dropped off my mom, I immediately took the durango to the dealer. They kept it there and tested it for several hours. Nothing happened. They could not verify my complaint. They did tell me, however, that the computer needed to be re-programed. This past saturday, my husband & I drove the durango to kona for the day. While driving up a ramp at one of the hotels, the engine died out again! First thing monday morning (5/23/2005), I called the dealer's service dept. And explained what had happened. (I spoke to sherri) they checked with their service manager, who along with the mechanic, called star. They told them to insall a "co-pilot". They (the manager, service advisor and the mechanic, along with myself) do not think that makes any sense. The durango just dies out, and the co-pilot would only make sense if myself or my husband had the time to press the button before the truck died out. In this case, the truck just dies out, so we don't have the time to press the button first. I'm afraid that the truck will die out while driving and will cause an accident.
Vehicle stalling.
I have an 05 hemi durango limited with 3,300 miles on it. Since new the vehicle has occassionally died when making low speed turns. The dealer has informed me that the PCM flash provided by dodge has not corrected the problem and they are still working on a fix. Overall the vehicle has stalled five times. I have also filed a similar complaint for my 05 ram 2500 with the hemi engine.
When coming to a stop or slowing down, while turning the vehicle it stalls out , dealership flash a new program in the computer, happened again about a week later after this was supposedly fixed , also stalls when you first start the vehicle and put it into reverse.
