ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE
I am receiving a sign stating “warming engine wait to start” the car does not start. When I apply gasoline it stalls to start. While driving the car shuts off in traffic. I’ve been to car shops who refer me to go to Chrysler because they can’t fix the problem stating “it is an electrical problem”. I’ve taken the car to Chrysler dealerships they continuously tell me otherwise. They’ve cleared codes and fix the last recall issue after this the car was okay for a few months now it continues to do the same thing. I’m am afraid that this could harm my passengers and I especially my child. I’ve literally turned while traffic was clear and safe to turn onto a main ride and my car shut off mid turn as traffic caught up. This has happened after fueling my vehicle. The only light that continues to appear is the battery light which I’ve had checked by many mechanics and technicians as well as the starter and alternator.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Car randomly stall and shuts downs when driving. Sometimes it will turn back on right away, sometimes it completely dies in the road and it has to be towed since everything shuts down. Unable to put it in neutral and push it, or roll up any windows. Before it happens traction control will flash very quickly, other times when it has completely died the power steering warning comes up quickly. I have taken it to the dealership but it doesn't throw a code so they keep telling me they can't do anything about it. There are many articles online about it, but nothing is being done as far as recalls.

AIR BAGS
I've had several issues with the airbag warning light coming on telling me to service the airbag. While the car was covered under the warranty the dealership replaced the part at least three times and eventually told me to stop digging under my driver seat as the wiring harness for the air bags was located there. As anyone with kids may know that isn't the easiest thing to do. Bit even more alarming is the fact that if there is an accident my airbags may malfunction since the warning light is on. And the cost to get it fixed it way to high for me to pay especially knowing that it's just going to happen again in a few months since it's already been replaced a number of times.
