MY ENGINE SHUTS OFF WHEN THE CAR IS LOW IDLING, TYPICALLY IN HIGHWAY STOP AND GO TRAFFIC OR AT A STOP LIGHT. EVERYTHING SHUTS DOWN, BUT THE CAR STARTS UP AGAIN 15 TO 30 SECONDS AFTER IT STOPS. THIS HAS HAPPENED EVERY YEAR SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR (2007) FIRST OCCURRING @ 25,000 MILES. I EXPERIENCE THIS 4-5 TIMES PER YEAR, USUALLY DURING THE WINTER WITH COOLER TEMPERATURES AND RAIN (I LIVE IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA). *TR

WE WERE ON THE FREEWAY AND IN THE SPACE OF SEVERAL SECONDS, WE LOST RPMS, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, THEN THE TRACTION LIGHT, THEN ALL OF THE LIGHTS, THEN IT DIED JUST AS WE GOT ONTO THE SHOULDER. THE MECHANIC HAD TO REPLACE TIMING BELT AND WATER PUMP JUST TO GET IT RUNNING ENOUGH TO RUN THE CODES. MECHANIC REPORTS THAT THERE ARE BENT VALVES AND 4 OF THE CYLINDERS ARE MISFIRING. *TR

THE VEHICLE IS STUCK IN "PARK". PARK LOCK OUT MECHANISM IS NOT FUNCTIONING. HAVE READ MANY COMPLAINTS ON LINE OF OTHER VEHICLE OWNERS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM ON THE CHRYSLER 300 AND DODGE MAGNUM. I CAN'T MOVE MY CAR. IT IS STUCK WERE I PARKED IT. *TR
