| The vehicle had been stalling on the highway, and restarting alone , and at time when entering the on ramp to a highways, almost caused me to have an accident. and it has always been on the highway when the car is in higher r.p.m's as it never done it while on city roads... now car won't start at all and reads no bus... i entered it at google and many other's have gone through the same problems i have and with many models but the same engines either 2.4 v6 or the 2.5 v6 , dodge or chrysler cirrus ,stratus,breeze,intrepid,and earlier 300's... sounds like it should be a recall to me... thanks for any info. *jb | |||
