| Numerous times over the past few months i have pulled out of my driveway or out of a parking lot and my vehicle has stopped running,forcing me to pull over quickly before my steering locks up,which then requires me to put the vehicle in park and restart it.the vehicle was taken to my local dodge dealership on april 5th,2012 and on april 6th,2012 i was told they could not find a code to explain the issue and unless they kept it for several days to attempt to duplicate the problem there was nothing they could do. the vehicle actually stalled pulling out of a parking lot on the way to the dealership at a low speed. the vehicle does not stall at red lights while idling,only when pulling out onto the roadway. i have great concerns that i will be rear ended in an accident if this issue continues. | |||
