What owners wrote
Vehicle stopped in parking lot with engine running. Took foot off brake to accelerate, and engine revved up, and vehicle took off. Applied brakes, did not stop vehicle. It sped up to 60 MPH, hit cars/ fence. Finally, stopped vehicle. Vehicle still at dealer, damage unknown, chrysler contacted, said file opened.
This vehicle has stalled while driving on the highway with my kids in the car leaving me with no power no brake had to quickly turn off to the shoulder and try to restart it is happening on a daily basis and is very dangerous I had a recall part replaced by dealer and still nothing something has to be done as I see this is a common factor and eventually will cause a major accident
