Without warning the vehicle shut down. This happened at any speed and any weather. Dealer said it was the power control module (PCM), and the part was on back order. Manufacturer said they couldn't do anything to speed up the process and were trying to get the parts to the dealer as quick as possible. The consumer was on waiting list for part. The consumer was concerned about family when driving and car shuts off. The consumer said car takes about 5 minutes F to start back up, sometimes longer. Replacement of part was not included in any maintenance schedule.

Vehicle has been to dealer 5 times now for very rough idle, engine sag, idle undershoot, etc. PCM has been reprogrammed with current software, etc. Dealer called Chrysler and was told no fix is available for this condition. Vehicle shakes and tries to die. Very unsafe to drive as may die when trying to pull out. Dealer basically says Chrysler knows of the problem but won't fix it properly.

Several times prior to complete power failure, vehicle decelerated on its own with a small jar as if tapped from rear, then @ 45 mph I lost complete power, no steering ability, power brakes gone, coasted to stop. No indicator lights prior to power loss, turned off A/C, radio etc. Vehicle re-started. I took to dealer next day. They had it for 3 days, & only replaced battery. Picked up vehicle on 6/28 & 6/30 vehicle shut down @ 45-50 mph same scenario, took back to dealer and they replaced module-powertrain control. Picked up 07/03, drove less than 10 mi & vehicle started the deceleration problem again.
