Consumer Description

MULTIPLE TIMES IN THE LAST MONTH WHEN I HAVE REFUELED, THE VEHICLE IS DIFFICULT TO START AND THEN RUNS EXTREMELY ROUGH AND USUALLY DIES ON THE ROAD ONCE OR TWICE. THE ENGINE SEEMS TO RUMBLE AND SHAKES THE VEHICLE AND THEN AFTER A SHORT PERIOD OF DRIVING IT SEEMS TO GO AWAY. THE ENGINE LIGHT BLINKS ON AND OFF WHILE THIS SITUATION IS HAPPENING. MY MECHANIC HAS LOOKED THE PROBLEM OVER TWICE AND CANNOT SEEM TO DETERMINE WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM. HE HAS BEEN IN CONTACT WITH DODGE/CHRYSLER AND THEY INDICATE NO OTHER REPORTED PROBLEMS. THE MECHANIC IS STILL CHECKING BUT SEEMS TO REMEMBER CHANGING A FUEL TANK ON A CHARGER IN THE PAST THAT WAS HAVING AN ENGINE PROBLEM AND IT CORRECTED THE PROBLEM. HE IS RECHECKING HIS FILES TO FIND THAT REPAIR JOB. LAST NIGHT MY VEHICLE DIED TWICE IN MY DRIVEWAY (WITH LESS THAN HALF A TANK OF GAS) AND I CONSIDER IT UNSAFE TO DRIVE AT THIS POINT. ANYONE WANT TO BUY A USED 2006 CHARGER (HEMI)??? IT WILL BE SITTING IN MY DRIVEWAY. [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR
