Consumer Description

I OWN A 2007 DODGE RAM 1500 4.7L QC. PURCHASED NEW. I HAVE HAD NUMEROUS INCIDENTS WHERE THE VEHICLE HAS SHUT OFF WHEN BRAKING UPBRUPTLY TO A STOP. AT TIMES WHILE STOPPED, THE TRUCK IDLES HIGH AND THE TRUCK SURGES FORWARD THEN SHUT OFF COMPLETELY. I HAVE TO PUT IN PARK AND RESTART THE TRUCK. THERE HAS BEEN TIMES WHILE IN A THE MIDDLE OF A BUSY INTERSECTION WHEN IT WOULD DIE. I HAVE HAD OTHER CARS HAVE TO STOP OR MANEUVER AWAY FROM ME TO AVOID COLLISION. IT IS AT THE POINT WHERE I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE THIS IN HEAVY TRAFFIC. I HAVE TAKEN TO THE SHOP WHERE THEY SAID IT WAS A STICKY EGR VALVE. BUT IT STILL CONTINUES. THE DEALERSHIP ONLY WANTS TO PATCH THE PROBLEM THEN SEND YOU OFF. I AM NOT SUPRISE THERE HASNT BE A FATALLY WITH THIS ISSUE. *TR
