Consumer states: All of a sudden vehicle died when making a turn in traffic, no lights came on, it just died. Dealer couldn't find anything wrong the first time 4/14/05 but then they called back had us come in, and they flashed the computer on 4/15/05, and then had us bring it back and flashed again on 4/25/05. Then it happened on 5/6/05 and 5/7/05 and damler-Chrysler had dealer change map sensor on 5/10/05.
