ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING

 While turning left to cross multiple lanes on the highway, i accelerated to go and the car began coasting. i pressed on the gas and nothing! i put it in neutral, heard it rev and put it into drive..still nothing! the car would not accelerate. with on coming traffic and cars swerving to keep from plowing into me, i quickly put the car in park, shut it off, tried to re-started it (x3)and put it in drive. i was finally able to get it to go. the next day, my car was hard to start (x3). after warming up for approximately 10 mins, i left for work. low & behold, the same exact thing happened at the same exact spot except this time my car shut off during the turn. once again, with oncoming traffic and speeding cars dodging my stopped vehice, i immediately threw it into park, tried to restart it x2, then put it in drive and was able to get out of the way of the tractor trailer who was not going to be able to stop! on the way to the dealership, it happened twice to my husband but the dealership says there is no code, it hasn't happened to us and thus no problem i can assure you, as a deputy sheriff, this problem isn't just dangerous, it's deadly!

 2011 dodge charger. consumer expresses discontent concerning chrysler corporation *tgw the consumer stated the vehicle would not start and chrysler was aware there was an issue and never informed him. the consumer also stated the vehicle has a terrible blind spot, which was restrictive, as his body transgressed higher towards the back making it difficult seeing low hoods. also, the rear window view was higher, apparently to allow more trunk space, which blocked the consumer from seeing, the hood when backing out of parking spaces. the consumer stated he could barely see the speedometer, the numbers were a lot smaller and difficult to read. also, it was difficult to adjust the tilt wheel. the consumer stated he had to use extra strength to pull the wheel up or down. the consumer stated there was a drag in the vehicle, when he removed his foot from the accelerator, the vehicle would slow down more rapidly. also, it was easy to accidentally move the shifter into a lower gear. also, the transmission was not shifting properly. *jb

 A very strong exhaust or gas smell inside the vehicle cabin of the 2011 dodge charger police vehicles. ususally after the engine has idled for a while and when the a/c is on. switching between fresh or recirculated air does not correct the problem. driving around does not clear the problem. many other fleet vehicles are experiencing the same problem. national blogs seem to report the same type of problem in several dodges.
