This December 2011, I have owned the car for two years. It has stalled in traffic three times while turning to the left and once while turning to the right. It felt like the vehicle had run out of gasoline, however there was plenty of gasoline. I have avoided three collisions, the last two because I was able to restart the vehicle quickly, due to experience. I have taken the vehicle to the dealer ("redlands Dodge" California) however they say the computer has no record and of the problem and they can't recreate the problem. I have found on the "internet" several sites of owners of the same vehicle and year with the same problem. This problem is not being addressed by Dodge because the dealership told me there is no fix at this time or recall.

The contact owns a 2010 Dodge Charger with a police interceptor package. While the vehicle was parked he smelled strong exhaust fumes. He was unable to determine where the fumes were coming from. This failure was not diagnosed by the dealer since it was a part of a fleet package of twelve to thirteen vehicles that have experienced the identical failure. Several vehicles within the fleet Transport police K9 dogs and the odor in the vehicle presented a safety risk for the driver and the K9 dog. The contact was advised that an engineer from Chrysler would notify them and investigate the failure approximately two to three months ago. He was told that he could continue driving the vehicle at this time due to the delay in Chrysler engineer conducting an investigation. The maintenance division spoke to the Dodge dealership in an attempt to have the vehicle diagnosed and they were told that they were unable to offer any assistance. The current mileage was 6110 and the failure mileage was 5742.
