NHTSA Complaint #10780905 — 2010 DODGE CHALLENGER

CAR SHUT DOWN/POWERED OFF/TURNED OFF ON IT'S OWN, WHILE DRIVING. RAPID AUTOMATIC DOWN SHIFT OF GEARS BRAKING FROM ABOUT 65 TO TURN/WHILE TURNING LEFT ONTO SIDE STREET ON ROAD. CAR DIED AFTER STEERING WHEEL BEGAN TURNING TO LEFT AND CAR WAS TURNING. LOST POWER STEERING AND POWER BRAKES. NEARLY SLAMMED INTO EMBANKMENT AND BLOCKED INTERSECTION AREA. VERY DIFFICULT TO CONTROL/HARD TO SAFE VEHICLE: HARD TO TURN, STOP, AND RESTART. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT DID NOT COME ON/NO ODB CODES STORED. THIS WAS SPECIFICALLY SCARY AS PEOPLE DRIVE THROUGH HERE FAST AND VISIBILITY IS VERY SHORT. AFTER THIS EVENT AND THE EVENT IN JULY, I BECAME AFRAID I COULD DIE IN THIS CAR. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP. THEY SAID A FEW ERROR CODES WERE SAVED IN OUTER CAR SYSTEMS THAT SHOWED COMMUNICATION WITH PCM HAD BEEN LOST. THEY WERE REPLACING THE PCM. HOWEVER, REPLACING THE PCM DID NOT CORRECT THE PROBLEM. IT HAS DIED 3 TIMES SINCE I STARTED DRIVING IT IN THE SPRING THIS YEAR. THIS IS DANGEROUS!!! THE DEALERSHIP REFUSES TO INVESTIGATE FURTHER. PLEASE HELP.
