Yesterday, while pulling a 25' camper on the interstate doing 58mph had to accelerate up a little because 65mph road, trans shifted fine on acceleration to 60 and within seconds engine light came on and truck STALLED. Pulled off to shoulder and placed in park, gave a couple seconds and truck started right up, but then just shut off again. Wouldn't start for 30 minutes. Then started with no problem but engine light is still on; shifted fine and acceleration no problem; drove over 130 miles home with no more stalls. Today, drove 12 mile with engine light on but no stalls. Went to return home but won't start. Waited 30 minutes and truck started right up and drove home with no stalling. Engine light is still on. This is a SERIOUS problem having NO WARNING that vehicle can stall while traveling at a HIGH RATE of speed. No hesitation problems, no acceleration problems, no shifting issues, just BAMM, engine stalls, just like that. DODGE needs to rectify this issue before someone gets killed.
