Consumer Description

THE CAR STALLED ON ME A TOTAL OF 3 TIMES WHEN COMING TO A STOP AT BUSY INTERSECTIONS WITH CARS COMING UP BEHIND ME FAST. I TOOK IT IN A TOTAL OF TWO TIMES, TO NO AVAIL. THEY STATED THEY COULD FIND NOTHING WRONG. THE SECOND TIME I TOOK IT IN WAS AFTER A WEEK OF VERY SKETCHY ENGINE TROUBLE (WHERE IT ALMOST STALLED NUMEROUS TIMES) AND THE LAST 2 TIMES IT HAD STALLED ON ME. WHEN I GOT IT BACK IT DROVE MUCH BETTER, BUT YET THEY STATED THEY DIDN'T FIND ANYTHING. I HAVE RESEARCHED AND THIS IS NOT AN ISOLATED INCIDENT. I HAVE A COUSIN WHO HAS A CHRYSLER T&C, SAME YEAR AND THE SAME THING HAPPENED AND AGAIN THEY COULD FIND NOTHING (THEY ARE THE SAME ENGINE.) I HAVE PUT A COMPLAINT INTO DODGE. I HAVE MY PAPERWORK FORM SERVICE AT DODGE, JUST UNABLE TO UPLOAD RIGHT NOW.
