 Description of the problemMy family was in the vehicle (my son was 4 weeks old at the time, my daughter 2) on the new york state thruway and the vehicle stalled out at 65 mph. My husband was able to maneuver to the side of the road and restart the vehicle. About 15 miles later, it happened again. We exited the highway and the warning indicator light illuminated. Shortly after that, the low fuel light illuminated. It's happend two other times since that first incident. The dealership has told me that they can't recreate the incident and the codes aren't active so they can't verify the scenario. Chrysler has told me there is nothing they can do. The vehichle in unpredictable, unreliable and in my opinion, unsafe. I did a google search on the issue and found a forum indicating stalling issues with dodge journeys dating back to 2008. The responses from service professionals is astounding - everything from it being a result of the vehicle just being washed to key fob deprogramming.
