Consumer Description

OWNED VEHICLE SINCE 2009. EVERYTIME IT RAINS THE CAR WILL STALL OUT WHEN DECELERATING FROM VARIOUS SPEEDS. THIS HAS ALMOST CAUSED SEVERAL ACCIDENTS AS DRIVERS BEHIND YOU EXPECT YOU TO BEGIN TO ACCELERATE WHEN TRAFFIC LIGHTS TURN GREEN, BUT INSTEAD YOU MUST DROP THE CAR INTO NEUTRAL OR COAST IT TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD TO GET IT TO RESTART. THIS HAS CONTINUED SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR. IT IS A COMMON PROBLEM THAT DODGE APPARENTLY HAS NOT ADDRESSED ACCORDING TO WWW.MYCARSTATS.COM. *TR
