Consumer Description

2006 CHRYSLER 300C SRT8 6.1L STALLS. ONCE NORMAL IDLE TEMPERATURE REACHES 200 DEGREES, THE CAR STARTS TO REV UP AND DOWN AND EVENTUALLY TURNS OFF. NO CODES. REPLACED BOTH CAMSHAFT AND CRANKSHAFT SENSOR. THIS IS ANNOYING AND DANGEROUS BECAUSE SOMETIMES THE CAR ACCELERATES WHILE ON GEAR!! OR COMPLETELY DIES WHILE DRIVING. I HAD A MINOR (SMALL BUMP) ACCIDENT AT A GAS STATION. IDLE STARTED TO FLUCTUATE AND AT ONE POINT, THE CAR JUMPED A BIT, I HIT THE BRAKES BUT I CAME INTO MINOR CONTACT WITH THE CAR IN FROM OF US. HELPS US TO GET THIS RESOLVED.
