Vehicle Dodge Magnum r/t 5. 7l 2005 engine stalls unexpectedly when moving slow speed/low rpm, loses power steering and brakes. Does happen occasionally may go months without an incident. Vehicle start normally right after. Extremely dangerous especially when making left turn over oncoming traffic lanes and crossing lanes. Had two incidents yesterday as described. This issue need to be investigated and recalled for complete repair. Called Chrysler customer service who were unwilling to assist with an issue but admit warranty extension to the fuel tank's multifunction control valve fuel shutoff float in the 19-gallon tanks. I found NHTSA comment in its summary of the closed investigation. "the condition represents a low risk to motor vehicle safety and is adequately addressed by Chrysler's extended warranty. " I disagree with NHTSA comments whether this is "low risk to motor vehicle safety". Try to be stalled on the lane when 20 ton dump truck is approaching 50-60 miles per hour.
