| Description of the problem | Last year while driving my van, it stalled or turned off completely while driving. My power steering everything went dead. I was able to pull into the nearest gas station and place in park and restart the engine. Since that initial incident last year, it continues to happen. The most recent i was driving in the baltimore inner harbor tunnel when it shut down. On a few occasions i was almost rear ended. It doesn't matter what speed, the vehicle just turns off in the middle of driving. The dealer keeps telling me they can't find a problem. There are numerous complaints about this and also numerous accidents reported due to this. It saddens me that my self and my children could die in an accident due to dodge neglecting to recall these vehicles. |
