Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE INTERSTATE AND ENGINE SUDDENLY CUT OFF AND I HAD TO PUSH IT TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, I COULD HAVE BEEN REAR-ENDED EASILY. THERE WAS NO POWER AND ENGINE WOULD NOT TURN OVER, ONLY ELECTRONICS WOULD LIGHT UP AND ENGINE FAN WOULD RUN AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED.I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY CHRYSLER/MERCEDES WOULD NOT HAVE A RECALL ON THIS YET. APPARENTLY IT IS THE RCM MODULE THAT HAS BAD SOLDER POINTS SO I HAVE HEARD. VERY DANGEROUS THAT THIS IS HAPPENING TO A VEHICLE WITH UNDER 100K MILES. IT HAS HAPPENED BEFORE AND LEFT ME STRANDED A COUPLE TIMES, AND THIS TIME IT WOULD NOT START AT ALL SO I HAD TO GET A TOW TRUCK TO TOW IT 27 MILES HOME. IF THIS HAPPENED TO A NEW DRIVER OR ELDERLY PERSON THIS COULD HAVE BEEN VERY DANGEROUS. I CAN'T EVEN IMAGINE WHAT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED IF THIS HAPPENED WHILE I WAS ON A ROAD TRIP OR DRIVING THROUGH ATLANTA OR SOMETHING.
