Description of the problem	Four times in two years driving the dodge ram vehicle suddenly died, loosing power steering and breaking. The first time it caused me to run through a stop sign when the vehicle was less than three months old. The second time, i was going slow and straight. The third time i was on a curve and barely maintained control while stopping. The final time in 2007 was on a curve and my vehicle stalled and ran off the road crashing/bumping into a curb. Each time was at speeds less than 30 mph. I was concerned it would occur at higher speeds. I had taken it to the dealer twice and they could not identify a problem. They claimed to have downloaded the black box and reported it did not indicate a stall. After fearing for my daughter that was with me, i immediately traded the vehicle in for a ford. The dealer's service technicians treated it as though i was imagining the problem. The dealer i traded the vehicle into is both a dodge and ford dealer with the same repair staff servicing both lines of vehicles. I reported the problem to the dealer's sales staff when i traded the vehicle in. Did the dealer warn the buyer of the vehicle when they resold it? This dealer is still in business in branson, missouri.
