Was making a left turn going between 15 to 20 mph and the vehicle just died out in the turning process.was able to restart the vehicle after 3 attempts
I purchased my vehicle in 6/19/17 and immediately after a few rides i fault with the dealer about my airbag light coming on. i went to the dealership and they told me it was my airbag wiring harness and it would need to be replaced under both seats but it was not covered under warranty. there is no way i was paying for this when the car was practically new only approximately 42502 miles and i was having ongoing issues with my airbag light coming on. well now i am really feeling like this recall is larger than it is presented. also, the vehicle has electrical problems when i get things done to my vehicle. such as my transmission needing service, the malfunction indicator light, the abs, the traction, and electronic park brake failure. all these lights came on just from replacing a hub (bearings) on my passenger side. my main complaint is on the air bag issue. i just want to voice my frustration when multiple people tell me they do not know why my vehicle is giving me these notifications.

Went to a store with a heavily sloped parking lot. approximately 15 to 20 degrees. parked car and went in side, returned to the car, started, and placed car in reverse, looked behind me for pedestrians and notice some people down a little ways.. proceeded to carefully pull out of the slopping parking space in reverse. applied slight pressure to brake pedal to shifted car into drive. removed foot from brake to apply foot to gas pedal with a little more pressure than usual due to the slop, to keep car from rolling backwards.. the car keep rolling in reverse due to the declining slop of the parking lot. car did not engage into drive and the engine revved up to high rpms and if not for a fast reaction from me returning my foot to brake after realizing what was going on, i could of easily ran into the people that i noticed earlier. not good! when i put my foot on the gas peddle to stop the car, the car went into gear and the car shook violently due to the high rpms. the people in the parking lot were also startled. this is the primary car for my wife and i asked her if the car has not gone into gear before. to my astonishment she said once. this car now sits in the garage awaiting the chrysler dealer to pick it up 27,997 miles. this kind of problem could easily do harmful bodily injury to a pedestrians or my wife. .
