Consumer Description

I HAD JUST COMPLETED A FUEL FILL-UP AND UPON DRIVING AWAY FROM THE PUMP THE ENGINE DIED, LOSING ALL POWER. WITH 3-4 ATTEMPTED RESTARTS THE CAR MOVED FOR SHORT DISTANCES AND REPEATEDLY DIED. WHEN IT DID RESTART, THE ENGINE WOULD NOT ENGAGE IN DRIVE. EVENTUALLY, THE CAR WOULD RUN NORMALLY AND WOULD CONTINUE TO RUN UNTIL THE NEXT FILL UP. THE LATEST INCIDENT (AFTER 3 INCIDENTS) OCCURRED FEB 4, 2014. AFTER MY MECHANIC WAS ABLE TO DUPLICATE THE INCIDENT ON FEB 7 AND DISCOVERED THAT THIS PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED MULTIPLE TIMES TO OTHER VEHICLES. CHRYSLER CORP SHOULD HAVE ISSUED A RECALL IN MY OPINION. *TR
