After a coolant flush my ac stopped working and flashing lights after performing a recharge without my permission on Saturday.notified david (X) about situation did not get no help from him. As a concerned customer who takes care of my car. I went to express lane today July 23,2018 at 8:30ish and spoke to david. I asked him if I could speak with eddie (Y) he said go walk across the street to the sales building to his office. I walked over to sales department and another's employee asked me why I needed to speak with him. I told him it's regarding a situation that happened on Saturday and I was willing to wait on eddie (Y) if he isn't not available at the moment.the sales associate told me he wasn't going to text eddie and let him know. However, he then proceeded to tell me that eddie probably is in a meeting or something. I told him okay and I walked back over to express lane and asked david (X) if I could speak with eddie and that I was willing to wait. David was not helpful at all.he said we'll its no way I can't get in touch with him for you. So I walked back to sales and the receptionist asked me what I needed help with and I told her situation on how the manger david (X) was not trying to help me. I told her who I was looking for and she sent me to his office. I walked to his office and tapped on the open door and said hey mr (Y) I was told to come over to your office to discuss a safety issue with my car that his team messed up and did work without my permission. He started yelling rudely I can't help you I'm doing payroll right now. He said let david help you.I tried to express to him why I couldn't get mr. (X) help but he cut me off and called the sales associate who I had reported the problem to on Saturday in then office. David lied and said he didn't do nothing to my car and no one helped me get the situation resolved.

My 2010 Dodge Challenger srt8 completely shuts down while driving for no apparent reason. The engine turns off and I lose power steering. It does this repeatedly while driving at all speeds. All electrical components work when this happens but the power steering makes it very hard to turn the vehicle which makes it very dangerous in traffic or on the highway. I have to put the vehicle in park press my ignition start button to turn the car completely to the off position and restart the vehicle. There are no check engine lights that illuminate after this happens so the Dodge dealer does not know what the problem is. The last time this happened my ABS and traction control light has illuminated and my esp, traction control and anti lock brake system was disabled and hasn't been enabled. After starting the car the esp, tc and ABS light illuminate and stay on. I have taken my vehicle to the Dodge dealer three times and they have said that they are not able to find the problem because there are no trouble codes or a check engine light on. I have read online that this is a very common issue that thousands of owners of Dodge Challengers are experiencing with the same result that the Dodge service departments can not find or duplicate the problem. This random engine shut off has happened around 40 times. It's happened on the highway in motion at speeds of 75 mph on the city street from 30-50 mph and when leaving an intersection after the stop light turns green leaving me stopped in the middle of the intersection in danger of bieng hit by oncoming traffic. It has also happened while turning in a intersection and the vehicle stopping with oncoming traffic heading towards my vehicle. I have nearly been hit numerous times due to this problem. I have proof of my vehicle taken to the dealer to resolve this issue with no luck as to what the dangerous problem is.

While drivivg on my way home doing about 60mph in the right lane on the expressway and the car completely shutdown, the engine light came on, I couldn't even steer the car, the steering wheel locked up no breaking capeability, had to let the car coast into the emergency lane, luckly there weren't any cars in front or behaind me. Which could have been fatal. While in the emergency lane put the car in park turned off ther ignition, turned on the ignition put the car in drive and the car would move, put it back in park turned the ignition off again, started it again put in drive.

Have a 2010 Dodge Challenger with less than 40,000 miles. Took car to shop at Dodge dealership due to the fact that my check engine light was on (at 38,000 miles). After not diagnosing my car correctly on 3 separate occasions, they finally "determined" that the car needed a new power module, and several engine sensors were faulty and not working.
