11 Car Stall problem

Failure Date: 07/09/1997

One year after the van was purchased it started to stall. The stall occurred and continues to occur when the air conditioner is on in hot weather. The van will stall while driving at low speeds. I have taken it two dealerships with not success. Serramonte Dodge had me put a CO-pilot on my car which was to record the incident. When I returned the CO-pilot with they said they lost the data when they tried to download the information. They wouldn't put the CO-pilot back on. They will not check the pcm computer to see if it is failing. According to the dealer the pcm should record an error message when the van fails, but the pcm module never records anything. This is why we asked them to check the pcm module. If it was working right it would record the failure. 5 years later I still have the problem. My car will stall on the freeway when there is bumper to bumper traffic. Chrysler dosen't seem to think this is a safety issue. I think it is. What if it causes an accident.
