I almost died, I escaped my car moments before it completely exploded into flames. I was driving down the interstate and it said it was overheating for a couple seconds and then the car went completely dead going 70 miles per hour. My steering wheel locked up so I fought to pull it off the road and stop it, I had a bad feeling so I checked the front of the car but it was inflamed once I got out and my seat was consumed in fire

Engine stalling while low speed driving, when deceleration, while making a stop sign or waiting at a red light. This issue has occurred persistently in different occasions and settings. Although the majority of the times the vehicle's shutting off occurs frequently at low speed, it has happened while driving at a higher normal speed.

'takata recall' there are several things that are going on with my 2005 dodge durango slt 4.7 liter v8, 4 wheel drive SUV that are alarming. Every single time I fuel the vehicle it shoots gasoline right back on out of the gas tank where you insert the fuel nozzle and covers me with gas! Plus I have replaced the throttle position sensor several times, along with the idle air control valve, and map sensor just to try and correct the stalling while either slowing down to come to a stop, or it also occurs quite frequently when the vehicle is at normal operational temperature and just idling. The RPM gauge inside the vehicle starts fluctuating irratically before stalling. You lose all power and control over the vehicle when it stalls! Another problem that's present is hard shifting, or the vehicle fails to shift until it almost pegs out the RPM gauge. It's like both idle and shift are affected creating a safety issue. The transmission has been serviced regularly, tuneups, etc. However despite staying on top of all vehicle maintenance requirements the vehicle still runs poorly and has been doing this since I have owned it at 78,000 miles. It's now got 113k on it and I honestly think the vehicle is a safety hazard and needs the manufacturing company to address all of these issues! This is an ongoing issue that no matter how many times I have the vehicle repaired and the parts replaced it continues to stall out and shift incorrectly there's 18 trouble codes that keep coming up including the air bag on the passenger side, which really doesn't seem to fit what's really going on. No trouble codes for the fuel tank shooting gas out of the inlet pipe that leads to gas tank. This stalling and loss of power happens at all speeds on the freeway, city driving, or literally parked or slowing down from any speed. Any kind of weather condition. Problem started 8/01/2014 to present day.

2005 dodge durango ltd with a 5.7l hemi. Stalls out in traffic often when it rains whether stationary or moving. According to people on youtube, this is a common problem and needs to be addressed by the manufacturer. This has happened on a few occasions, but I am reporting the most recent. The problem is that water drains onto the manifold and somehow causes the vehicle to stall.
