NHTSA Complaint #11386444 — 2016 DODGE DART

I OWN A 2016 GT DART WITH JUST OVER 37,000 MILES ON IT. FOR THE LAST TWO WEEKS I HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING THE ENGINE SHUTTING OFF WHILE DRIVING NEIGHBORHOOD SPEEDS SHORTLY AFTER STARTING THE CAR FOR THE FIRST TIME THAT DAY...FROM RESEARCH AND THE SYMPTOMS I'VE BEEN GETTING I BELIEVE IT COULD BE LINKED TO THE OIL AND OIL CHANGE LIGHT. HOWEVER, I'VE CHECKED THE OIL LEVELS AND IF ANYTHING THERE MIGHT BE TOO MUCH OIL IN THE CAR. THE OIL LIFE METER IS IN THE SINGLE DIGITS AND THE OIL CHANGE LIGHT WILL NOT COME ON BUT SHOULD BE AT THIS POINT. I WILL HEAR LIKE HALF A DING AND IT TRIES TO COME ON THE SCREEN FOR A SPLIT SECOND BUT THAT'S ABOUT IT HERE IS AN EXAMPLE OF WHAT WILL HAPPEN WHEN THE ENGINE SHUTS OFF: 'START THE CAR FOR THE FIRST TIME THAT DAY AND THE ENGINE TURNS OVER FINE 'DRIVE OUT OF MY NEIGHBORHOOD ON TO THE MAIN ROAD AND GET UP TO A SPEED OF ~40MPH 'WHILE DRIVING THE ENGINE SHUTS OFF, NO LONGER ABLE TO ACCELERATE, BATTERY INDICATOR DINGS AND LIGHT TURNS ON, AND ALL ELECTRONICS (RADIO, A/C...) REMAIN ON. 'I PULL OVER (GET FLIPPED OFF AND HONKED AT - I LOVE ATL...), PUT THE CAR IN PARK, AND TURN EVERYTHING OFF 'ATTEMPT TO TURN THE ENGINE BACK OVER, MAY TAKE 5-10 SECONDS OR 1 OR 2 TIMES (I HAVE A PUSH START) 'ENGINE TURNS OVER AND I NEVER HAVE ANOTHER PROBLEM FOR THE REST OF THE DAY
