AFTER MAKING SLIGHT TURN (EITHER DIRECTION), AND HITTING SMALL BUMP. IE, TRANSITION BETWEEN HIGHWAY AND SIDE STREET. VEHICLE STALLS. LOOSE ALL STEERING AND EXCELLERATION. HAVE TO QUICKLY PUT INTO NUETRAL WHILE COASTING AND RESTART ENGINE. NO ACCIDENTS YET. MAYBE DODGE NEEDS A FEW MORE DEATHS ON THEIR HANDS TO CONSIDER FIXING THESE ISSUES. HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES OVER LAST 2 MONTHS.

ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL LIGHT ILLUMINATES AND VEHICLE GOES INTO "LIMP MODE". REPLACED THROTTLE BODY AND DEALERSHIP CANNOT FIND THE ISSUE. HAPPENS WHEN ON CITY ROADS AND HIGHWAY. I HAVE TO PULL TO THE SHOULDER, SHUT THE ENGINE OFF AND RESTART ENGINE TO GAIN FULL CAPACITY OF VEHICLE. THIS OCCURS TWICE DAILY ON AVERAGE.

INTERMITTENT RECURRING ELECTRICAL OUTAGE WHILE DRIVING. ALL CHIMES WILL SOUND AND ALL DASH LIGHTS WILL COME ON. THE POWER IS LOST, A DASH LIGHTS FLASH AND TURN OFF AND WE LOOSE THE INSTRUMENTS (SPEEDOMETER, RPM, ETC....). EXPERIENCE LOSE OF POWER CAN BARELY GET IT PULLED OVER SAFELY. AIR BAG LIGHT COMES ON AND SEAT BELT DOES NOT LOCK. DEALERSHIP CAN NOT REPAIR EVEN WITH HAVING IT FOR 42 DAYS TIME BEFORE LAST. HAVE ONLY BEEN ABLE TO DRIVE 334 MILES SINCE DEALERSHIP DELIVERED CAR TO ME WHEN THEY DROVE 170 MILES AND COULD NOT GET IT TO REOCCUR IN AUGUST 2015. I'M AFRAID TO EVEN DRIVE IT TO DEALERSHIP. TOTAL MILES PUT ON CAR SINCE PURCHASE JUNE 2013 IS 11394. CURRENT MILEAGE 38234
