| Description of the problem | This is a repetitive, almost daily problem. When vehicle is first driven in the morning, it stalls during driving after about 1 to 2 miles of travel. This stalling has occurred daily at speed around 30 mph, and i have to quickly push control to neutral, try to restart ignition (usually starts in about 2 to 3 seconds) to regain power steering and power brake controls. This condition has almost caused an accident on several occasions as steering and braking is significant reduced as engine stalls (i. E. No power). I saw in reading internet stories, that 2010s were recalled after 2 accidents. I fear i may be an accident, and have taken vehicle to repair, but no trouble has been found yet. If chrysler/dodge know about a faulty/defective problem, i really hope they will notify me immediately. I have sent an email to dodge customer service in hopes of getting an answer quickly. Meanwhile, i'll try to anticipate the stall as much as i can to avoid an accident, as i have a need to continue to drive this vehicle even with this faulty condition. |
