2006 Chrysler 300C srt8 6.1L stalls. Once normal idle temperature reaches 200 degrees, the car starts to rev up and down and eventually turns off. No codes. Replaced both camshaft and crankshaft sensor. This is annoying and dangerous because sometimes the car accelerates while on gear!! or completely dies while driving. I had a minor (small bump) accident at a gas station. Idle started to fluctuate and at one point, the car jumped a bit, I hit the brakes but I came into minor contact with the car in from of us. Helps us to get this resolved.

The car will randomly shut off for no reason, sometimes while its parked idling and other times at highway speed. I've had two different dealers try and fix without success. I've spent over a $1000 dollars in "repairs" and still have the same problem.

The engine shuts off while I'm driving and in reverse. I can restart it with no problem as long as I immediately step on the gas peddle. I have to shift into neutral to keep the engine running while at a stop light & back to drive. When I turn the key I do not hear the fuel pump like I used too! I've had repairs costing$509.96 and still have the same problem! I think my fuel pump is not working correctly or about to stop working! is there a recall for the fuel pump?
