| This has happened on numerous occasions. while driving, especially in extremely hot or extremely cool situations, the vehicle engine shuts down unexpectedly. first symptom - check engine light. second symptom (3 seconds later) - fuel gauge from half full to empty. third symptom (immediate) - low fuel warning light. fourth symptom (2 seconds later) - low fuel warning light. fifth symptom - engine shut down at highway speed. completely lost vehicle control. no power steering, no power brakes. muscled car to the side of the road and barely avoided an accident. could have been easily killed. problem appears pcm-related, but from what i've read, numerous people have paid $1,000 for a new pcm only to have the same results. this is a serious problem and has been reported thousands of times on the internet. i hope somebody does something with dodge on this before a child is killed when the truck dies at highway speed. | |||
