My alternator was overcharging my battery, replaced both. still having an overcharging "sweating battery" issue. The vehicle has suddenly died at low speed, but was able to start. The check engine light comes on and goes off, sometimes it is off for weeks, other times for a day, the code it sets is always different, even for components that have been replaced. tells me I have a large leak , a small leak in the evap, egr is shorted to ground, ait is out of spec, etc. Now my transmission has shifted from fifth to third back to fifth to fourth, all while at low speed in cruise control. The speedometer, while in cruise control, will jump to 3000rpm, down to 1500, and between all at the same speed.

The check engine light constantly remains on after all codes have been addressed. This vehicle is routinely given maintenance checks. Other the codes given (p40), what could the issue by? I have called my local dodge dealership for assistance with the recent recall hoping that would help resolve the issue, but the clerk was very rude stating they were busy. I love my vehicle but for safety concerns, I feel I may need to get rid of it if the problem continues. This has been a permanent issue for at least the last three years...each year its a struggle to even past emissions due to the check engine light. Thank you.
While driving the car I turned to park and it shut off. It has done this many times, while driving down the street. I am afraid to drive my kids in the car for fear it will shut off on the highway.
