| This december 2011, i have owned the car for two years. it has stalled in traffic three times while turning to the left and once while turning to the right. it felt like the vehicle had run out of gasoline, however there was plenty of gasoline. i have avoided three collisions, the last two because i was able to restart the vehicle quickly, due to experiance. i have taken the vehicle to the dealer (redlands dodge california) however they say the computer has no record and of the problem and they can't recreate the problem. i have found on the internet several sites of owners of the same vehicle and year with the same problem. this problem is not being addressed by dodge because the dealership told me there is no fix at this time or recall. | |||
