36 Other Fuel System problem

Failure Date: 07/17/2017

While driving at 10 mph on traffic entering the university the steering gradually became stiffer, until the engine suddenly turnoff by itself, loosing all the controls of the car. No sensors or safety lights went on at the time of the incident. After a few minutes I turned that car back on and everything was in working order. I called the road assistance and informed the dealer since the car was serviced back on February 23, 2017 due to a safety recall notice s89 - crankshaft camshaft sensor, at a higher speed this incident could have resulted in a mayor collision. The service department of benitez Chrysler is evaluating the cause. So far the diagnostics indicate a stop land switch failure at the break. I indicated that they have to call Chrysler and odi-NHTSA in order to report the incident and look for guidance, since I will not expose any life on a new car unresolved safety problem.

37 Other Fuel System problem

Failure Date: 03/15/2017

I was driving down the road and barely touched the shifter and when I touch the shifter it slipped over into where you shift your gears I feel like it's a could catch the car on fire because it is revved up so high and you don't even realize it because you cant hear it unless you you got radio off and windows up and you can never tell I definitely think they should have made it more safe when from some kind of a lock on the shifter for when you want to go over into where you shift the gears yourself not to mention how expensive cars are and that you could very easily tear up your car by it being in the manual shifting area rather than the automatic shift.
