I HAVE A 2009 CHRYSLER 300 THAT INTERMITTENTLY SHUTS ITSELF OFF WHILE DRIVING. WHEN IT DOES THIS, IT LOSES AL POWER. LIGHTS, FLASHERS, DASH LIGHTS ALL TURN OFF. I LOSE POWER STEERING, POWER BRAKES AND HAVE TO MANUALLY STEER IT AND BRAKE IT TO GET IT OFF TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. ONCE IT IS OUT OF TRAFFIC I PUT IT IN PARK, TURN OFF THE KEY AND THEN, AND ONLY THEN, I CAN RESTART IT. WHEN ALL OF THIS HAPPENS, THERE IS NO CODES. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASED IT AND THEY SAID THAT EVERYTHING IS FINE BECAUSE THERE ISN'T ANY CODES. I CALLED CHRYSLER CUSTOMER SERVICE AND FILED A CASE. #78850950. THEY CLAIMED TO HAVE ANY PRIOR KNOWLEDGE OF THIS HAPPENING ON ANY OTHER CHRYSLER PRODUCT.
