Consumer Description

MY DODGE AVENGER RECENTLY STARTED STALLING/SHUTTING DOWN WHILE IN MOTION. IT HAS HAPPENED 4 TIMES IN THE LAST 3 MONTHS. I LOOSE ALL POWER TO THE STEERING WHEEL AND BRAKES, I CANNOT CONTROL THE CAR. THANKFULLY THIS HAS ONLY HAPPENED ON LOCAL ROADS. I AM TERRIFIED IF IT HAPPENS WHILE I AM ON THE HIGHWAY WHICH I TRAVEL EVERYDAY ON MY WAY TO WORK AND BACK.
