Car intermittently shuts off without warning. Loses all electrical and engine power, then after a few minutes will regain power. Normally occurs while idling at a stop light. I believe it is the same issue it was recalled for in 2015, faulty pdc (power distribution center) connector. Nhsta campaign number: 15V470000.

After driving the car 30 minutes or more and I turn it off, it will not restart for another 30 minutes or more. It had left me stranded as well as caused me to be late for work jeapordizing my job and my safety. The car has been to 2 different dealers and they cannot find anything wrong. I cannot trade it in because the blue book value is less than what I owe. I feel that Chrysler should compensate me for this vehicle by buying it back at the price I paid. Sometimes the dash says 'engine warming up, please wait.'

  • 73,200 miles
The car will intermittently stall and shut off while driving. The car has done this numerous times while in motion on both the highway and city streets. It happened again today and every day last week, Monday thru Friday, while driving to work. The problem has progressively gotten worse and happens just about every time the car is driven. It usually happens after 20+ minutes of continuous driving. After it stalled today it would not start for 45 minutes. Chrysler and the dealership have basically washed their hands of correcting the problem at this point. They state the recall for this very problem has been completed. Yet the car continues to have the same issue as the recall that was done to fix the original issue. The dealership now wants to charge to diagnose and fix the problem.

After car in motion, it shuts off while driving, noticed that ABS light came on before this happened. Sometimes after it starts, it just shuts down, car goes completely dark, I opened the door and power came back on, then I could re- start it. It is very scary because I was in major traffic when this happened.

  • 22,000 miles
When coming to a stop or accelerating from a complete stop either turning or straight, the engine stalls without warning & there is no power steering or momentum to safely pull over. I have been stuck with hazards on at neighborhood stop signs, in stopped traffic after the light turns green, freeway on ramps, in the center of small & large intersections blocking traffic, on railroad tracks, & more. It can take up to 3 tries for the engine to restart. Obviously this is extremely unsafe, & I do not believe that I should be stuck in an intersection because a newer car with such low miles dies every day, often several times a day. In addition, the transmission is very jerky & the engine does not run smoothly once it restarts. That also happens occasionally upon the first start of the day. I do not understand why my vehicle was not included in the recall for this exact issue. I do have videos of this, but can not upload them. The date below is the date of one of the videos, this problem occurs daily & has been for several weeks. After purchasing the car, there were a few incidents months apart, then it became more frequent, & for the last several weeks it is a daily occurrence.
