“My SUV auto start no longer works and as I'm driving the car, the check engine light randomly comes on while the car is in motion and the car engine shuts off and starts to slow down to a complete stop. When it got plugged up to a diagnostic machine it stated that it had 3 crankshaft position sensors that needed to be replaced. Vechile has 52000 and is a 2015”

On tuesday may 7th I started the car and the speedometer did not register and the automatic door locks did not engage the brakes also hopped when I tried to slow down or stop.”
NHTSA complaint #11206801, filed 2019-05, 68,000 miles“'takata recall' every winter my Dodge journeys 'service awd, ABS light, and traction light' will come on when the sensor gets cold and wet. It shifts out of awd completely. This has been an issue every single winter. It is recalled on 2012-2015 models but for some odd reason my 2015 model is not included in that recall. Very frustrating.”
