My husband who is a state trooper was driving my car to home depot. He had trouble keeping it started in our driveway. Once he got out onto the road it was fine until he let off the gas. The car shut off completely. He coasted to the side of the road almost getting rear ended. He cranked it back up and this happened 2 more times on his way to home depot and back. He said everytime the engine would just shut down. We called Dodge and they claim there has been no reports of this.

There seems to be issues with the 5.7 ltr Dodge engines failing at highway speeds. My first occurrence was Sept. 8th, 2011 with 33,358 miles on engine, my second occurrence was on Feb 01, 20122 with 43,872 and my third occurrence was Aug 9, 2012 with 59,600 miles. Timing chains failure on all occurrences and this is happening to more and more 2009-2010 Dodge Challengers with automatic transmissions. My concern is that these occurrences are happening at highway speeds greater then 65 mph and eventually will cause serious harm and or death when car shuts down in the middle of rush hour traffic on interstates. This will be my third new engine total of four that will be put in this car with no upgraded parts to prevent these failures. All they keep doing is putting them back together with the same parts that are failing. Something needs to be done to correct these problems before some one gets seriously hurt or killed! I can provide more info on a number of Challenger that are having these same failures if you request it.

My 2009 Challenger has stalled twice when making a right-hand turn. 4/11/11 - I was driving between 30-35 mph. I started braking so I could turn right into my office parking lot. As I started to turn right, the engine just turned off - there were no idiot lights on the dash. I restarted the car, but I could not get it to move - drive would not work - reverse would not work - still no idiot lights on the dash. I turned the car off and restarted it again - and was able to drive the car. 7/27/11 - same right-hand turn - I was driving between 30-35 mph. I started breaking so I could turn right into my office parking lot. As I started to turn right, the engine just turned off - there were no idiot lights on the dash. I restarted the car and was able to drive the car with no problems. Gas gauge showed a little above one-quarter. There were 16,630 miles on car on 7/27/11. My husband's 2010 Challenger with low mileage, has stalled twice - most recently on 7/25/12.

The contact owns a 2009 Dodge Challenger. The contact stated that while driving 15 mph, the vehicle lost power as if it had stalled but the engine continued running. The power steering had also become inoperable. The contact turned the engine off and restarted the vehicle. Once restarted, the contact was able to accelerate and had regained steering capabilities. The vehicle was taken to the dealer who was unable to diagnose a failure. Approximately one year later, the failure recurred. The vehicle had not been repaired. The failure mileage was 11,000 and the current mileage was 34,000.
