I was riding down a busy highway and doing 55mph my car started to stall and just cut off, i couldn't get over to the slow lane alot of traffic. it cutoff and i had to get out the car and wave other cars off so they wouldnt hit me. as i got to a safe area from help of another driver the check engine light was on. i cut the car off and called my husband and he said after 10 to try and start it back up and it did it crunk back up and i drove slowly home with hazard lights on and when i got home and cut the car off i let it sit for 10 minutes again and when i turned it back on the check engine light was off. this was scary for me and when i researched this problem it shows it's a recall for a crankshaft position sensor but my car is not in the recall and i cant understand why not this could have cause me and my family to have died because of this dodge need to include all dodge journeys as i see alot of people are having this issue my mileage is 68000.

Little over 30k miles. about 47 mph on a 45 highway and needed to veer right. i had my music turned up and instead of breaking i allowed the car to coast so the speed would drop before my turn i needed to make. . when i dropped to a speed i was happy with, then i start breaking and thats when i realized the car had cut off, the steering wheel locked up, and the brakes became tougher to push. it was a busy highway and a just as busy right turn that i was trying to make. i had to throw the car in neutral to restart while still rolling or i would have been hit.

While the vehicle is in motion on the highway the check engine light and traction control light appear. when this happens, the vehicle loses all power and brakes. at this point i am unable to accelerate to move to a safe area where the car needs to be turned off and restarted. once the vehicle is turned off and back on the check engine light stays lit and the traction control light will turn off momentarily. upon driving the vehicle again, the traction control light will turn back on and the previous steps need to be repeated.

I have been having issues with several things. first when i stop the car it acts like it doesn't want to stop. it will actually come to a bumpy stop finally. another issue is that the check engine light keeps coming on. after having the computer checked the code was for the catalick converter not functioning. the last issue happened yesterday and wheni was driving my car decided to decelerate for no reason. i was luck i was on a farm market road and not a major highway. i have checked for recalls on my vehocle via vin number. however my specific vin is not listed, but i am experiencing some of the same problems that are associated with the recalls. the dealership will not help because my vehicle is not listed in the recall list. i fear that i am going to get in a wreck before this company recalls all of its defective vehicles!
