Power loss after re-feeling car turned off

- Washington, DC, USA

When sitting in park and car running it surges up and down. When in drive and sitting at a red light, stop sign or anything that U have to stop for a longer period of time, meaning seconds, the car will hesitate and shut off or stall. It does it all the time, any time. You have to put the car in park, turn the key to the off position and restart if you don't do it that way it will start and shut off immediately. I just bought the car on 9/22/2017 and it has happened everyday since. I've learned that if I put the car in neutral while sitting for just a few seconds it will not shut off.

I was on my way to work one morning and just out of the blue I hear this loud rattling noise coming from the engine. Upon farther inspection the rattling noise was coming from the oil pan area under the car. Did some research and found out that the rod bearings might have been defective coming from the factory.

When my key is turned to the "on" position without fully starting the vehicle, it starts stalling at low speeds and will not start without pressing the gas pedal. This will continue for approximately one week before the vehicle will return to normal performance. By normal performance, I mean it will start without pressing gas pedal and no stalling at low speed. When taking vehicle for routine services, I must inform the technicians not to place key in the "on" position or the problem start all over again. So far, I've had one accident due to this problem.

Came home from work parked my car. Ten fifteen min later I tried to go to the store, car started & died would not restart. Half an hour later I got it started, but it make a crunching noise & ran with a miss fire. I limped it to my mechanic, the car was blowing oil smoke out the tailpipes like I had overfilled it. My mechanic found that the valve seat on # 6 cylinder had dropped ruining both plug, cylinder head & piston. After he told me what had happened I started researching this, looks like any 5.7 hemi & other motors made before 2009 can be effected. I've tried talking to Chrysler about this issue & when the hear my car was not @ a dealer I was stonewalled.

I bought my car in August 2006 and in October 2006, I had engine lights problems from that date. I took it to the dealership that I bought it at and they would not do anything. This is my fifth complaint and I just had it repaired this year after several other things.it was still under warranty when I first contacted your office. I spoke with someone and they told me that it was covered and to take it I for repair then I had to pay for it myself. That's really sad when you purchase and rely on the company to uphold their warranty agreement. He quit on me on the highway after the the water seal popped and the dealership informed me that it should have never happened and I wrote to you about that and you did not reimburse me.
