When coming to a stop vehicle died. Once at a stop sign. Vehicle died was when the gas applied. There were no dash lights when the vehicle diesd this was a 2005 vehicle. There had been 4 stalling problems. The vehicle idles in high and whines. The idle is not all the time. Vehicle has been in the dealership for repairs 3 or 4 times. The climate was not a factor. The vehicle had contiually had ongoing problems. The dealership tried to fix the stalling problem. The computer has been reset, and an idle switch was added. Right now consumer is waiting for the tools from Chrysler to fix the recall part. The consumer called in advance for an appointment. Dealer kept the vehicle all day, but they vdidn't have the correct tools.
