Description of the problem	i contacted chrysler and voiced my frustrations at a problem i had been having since november 2009 wherein my truck arbitrarily stalls and misfires. To date, the technicians at rothrock in allentown, pa have not been able to find out what is causing this problem. Heads were replaced cylinders were swapped coils were swapped plugs and wires replaced computer checked wiring harness replaced.... Still the 1, 3, 5, and 7 cylinders stop working and the truck becomes unsafe. Rothrock has had it for 8 weeks. I am without a truck, they can not figure out what is wrong with it, and i will not take it back while it is in this condition as it is extremely unsafe. It had stalled at least half a dozen times while i was driving it, plus it stalled in my driveway on numerous occasions. Needless to say, i was aghast to find the following bulletins that showed this is an ongoing problem that chrysler minimized and closed- nhtsa defect investigation #ea05018 engine stall: power train:automatic transmission:control module (tcm, pcm) closed no recall issued this defect investigation is filed under 2 related vehicle components. 2004 dodge ram -- analysis of the complaint, field report and warranty data shows that the majority of stalling incidents in the subject vehicles appear to be related to the engine calibration concerns that daimlerchrysler addressed with service bulletins releasing revised pcm software.
