Description of the problem	This complaint is a continuance of a previous complaint number 10175625 filed 12/08/2006. I have an ongoing problem with my 2005 dodge ram 1500 4x4 with the 5. 7l hemi. The vehicle will at times stall when driving down the road. It seems to happen more often when the vehicle is cold and it is cold out side (near freezing). Since i filed my first complaint, i have had additional stalling occurrences with the vehicle. It was picked up from the service department on december 15, 2006. It was driven about 60 miles without incident. On the 16th, i went to the store. As i exited my neighborhood, the vehicle reached about 30 mph and hesitated where it would not accelerate any further for about three seconds and then stalled. I restarted it and continued down the road. When i left the store to come home about five minutes later, the same thing happened but only with a one second hesitation and stalled. I called the service department right away and dropped it off to them the following monday morning. I have been working with the dealership where i originally purchased the vehicle. Their customer service has been excellent. The service department has not yet been able to duplicate the problem. They have replaced both transmission filters and a crank sensor. This has not fixed the problem. The dealership currently has possession of my vehicle for the third time in two weeks. I have expressed to both the dealership and chrysler, both verbally and in writing, my sincere concern for the safety of myself and my family. I do not feel that this vehicle is safe to drive until it is fixed. I have asked that if it is not able to be properly diagnosed and fixed, to release me form my lease obligations with chrysler financial. *nm
