2010 Dodge Caliber Fuel system Problems

“This has happened a few different time, but when trying to accelerate from 45mph onto the highway from an on ramp my Dodge Caliber 2010 started to jerk and wouldn't let me go any faster, which made my car actually decelerate. Also there were times when I tried accelerating to pass someone and it just wouldn't go any faster, but there were no jerks.”

“I had been driving for a few hours at approximate 65 MPH. Some of which was on cruise. All of a sudden my vehicle started slowing down. My speedometer said 60 MPH. However, I was probably at 30. I stepped on the gas and the RPM went high but I didn't get any speed. Basically, the speedometer wasn't recording the speed I was at and the transmission was not working in increasing speed. …”

They told me that I probably had a loose gas cap. I had not been at the gas station in days. …”

“Whenever I have the lights on, radio on, fan blower on, and I'm stopped at a light in drive mode (automatic transmission), the engine shakes and dies. It's almost as if the car is experiencing computer overload. Too many things going on for the car to handle so the computer crashes causing the car to die. The car always starts back up. No indicator lights go off on the dash. It only happens occasionally under the above mentioned circumstances. If you add on the front & rear wipers same thing happens. …”
