Check Engine Light On problems of the 2011 Dodge Journey

We purchased this vehicle used, back in February. Over the last several months the vehicle had sporadically shut off while driving. The engine completely stops while moving. Some times it takes multiple attempts to turn it back on after shutting down and other times it will turn back on. We have already had the car looked at and had some recall work done to it, but this keeps happening even so. It happened again today while going 40 mph, 2 seconds before the car stalled the check engine light came on and then the car stopped while driving. Thankfully the person behind me was not following too close because they almost hit me when the car stopped moving. I was driving on a city street with moderate traffic around me, so I am lucky that no one hit me when the car came to a complete stop. I was able to put the car in park and put my hazards on, while waiting to restart the car. This isn't the first time this has happened and I am sure this won't be the last.

While driving on the highway the car just shut off has done this multiple times with no check engine lights at all.

Check engine light with code for misfire on cylinder 4. Spark plugs and coils replaced. VIN not listed with other 3. 6l v6 that has extended warranty for same issues for replacement of cylinder head. Check engine light comes on during low speed or stopped and rough engine ignition. Vehicle is a 2011 Dodge Journey 3. 6l v6.

I was driving on the freeway to work and the engine shut off. I lost power steering, power braking, ability to accelerate or really drive the car at all. All I could do was try to safely navigate an uncontrollable vehicle to the shoulder and hope I wasn't hit in the process. The check engine light came on, in addition to other warning lights (I think they were the tire pressure light, the vehicle traction control light and another indicator that looks like a lightning bolt). The car eventually restarted, but had problems driving and would start to cut out when it idled. We took it back to Dodge, they ran diagnostics but couldn't find any issues. After a lot of pressure, they replaced the main computer chip in the system. This was after replacing another minor part that didn't change the issue. This seemed to work for a few months, but then the problem began happening again. This time the engine was even more sluggish and the whole car would shake when you tried to accelerate. There was no power, even though the engine was running. Then, it would cut out again and the same warning lights came on. We are taking it back to Dodge again today to see what they can do.
