Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD THE TRUCK JUST STALLS FOR NO REASON. I LOSE ALL CONTROL. I ALMOST HIT A CAR. I WENT OVER THE CURB INTO SOMEONE'S YARD. I HAVE SEEN HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS FROM DODGE OWNERS WITH THE SAME EXACT PROBLEM. THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG WITH THAT MODEL. THE RPM'S JUMP AND THE TRUCK JUST DIES. ITS HAPPENED TO ME ON THE FREEWAY, ON RURAL ROADS, AND CITY STREETS. THIS IS GOING TO CAUSE SOMEBODY SERIOUS INJURY. I PARKED MY TRUCK AND STOPPED DRIVING IT BECAUSE IT IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE IMMEDIATELY. *JS
