I drive a 2011 Dodge challenger srt-8. Iit has only 300 miles on it. I was dirivng it off the highway and was making a right turn off the exit. Suddenly the vehicles engine and electirical power all shutdown. Luckily the car behind me swerved out of the way or we both surely would of died. I could not even pull over. Once I put it in park I was able to restart it. I checked online and several websites list this very same complaint. The dealer said they are "unaware" of the issue and can do nothing about it. Dodge does not even acknowledge this issue for anybody. This is scary as hell and will get someone killed. Please help.
