The car is under a recall, which is not a safe vehicle to drive. Many people have complained to Chrysler, the car will just stop and shut off. It's a time bomb that should B off the road. So many complaints and Chrysler is ignoring this problem. It hasent happened to me but I'm afraid it will.

Most of the time the car is stationary and upon cold start. Car has an "extended start" and then stalls. Car sometimes runs ruff and has stalled while in gear. Once while I was driving all of the electrical on the console (A/C, touch screen and all knobs) stopped working. Had to pull over, turn car off and on then drive home with stereo and ac blasting because none of the controls worked. Not on the console or steering wheel. Vehicle has been back to the dealer a dozen time for the same problem with no fix. I have filed complaints with Chrysler. Right now their solution is "the next time it does it, don't try to restart it. Just call and have it towed." Your options below ask when this happed. It has happened every few days since I bought the car on 3/13/2015 but you only give me the option of picking one date.

Car was running beautifully on September 22nd. It was parked in the garage overnight. When I started it the morning of the 23rd, the check engine light flashed and the car was idling very roughly. I drove slowly to the dealer, doug smith Chrysler in american fork, ut. They diagnosed the problem as being a cart and horse concern: Apparently the coil on the #6 cylinder had failed and also the coil driver in the PCM had also failed. They don't know which occurred first and then likely caused the other problem. My concern is that the car was nearly undriveable as it was; what if the PCM had suffered a cascading damage of some sort" especially, what if this had happened while I was traveling 70mph on the freeway? I just think that a component of such importance as the PCM should not fail after only 11000 miles. I now have concerns about the replacement: Will it be brand new or rebuilt? if rebuilt, how reliable will that end up being" I also feel that a spark plug coil should be more robust than to fail at only 11000 miles. I believe this failure could represent a severe danger to myself and possibly to others if it happened while the car was being driven.
