“Initially the problem started a couple of months ago, the car just shut down while driving and did restart after disconnecting the battery and reconnecting it while driving at 65 MPH 1 week ago the car just shut down. Thank god I was able to get it over to the shoulder twith no power steering or power brakes. It did restart after disconnecting the battery and restarting it. I called Chrysler and they said there was no recall for it shutting down. Just a passenger restraint recall. Last friday I was driving along at 55mph when it shut down again. …”

This happened at night and the car could not even turn on the hazard lights. After 15 minutes the car regained power and staryed. The navigation system was not functioning....it was just a bright white screen. After idling for 10-15 more minutes. I shut the car off and restarted it. It has been normal for the paat week.”
