Chrysler is still not making this part available to dealers so that it can be installed. This part can fail without warning and cause the engine to stall while in motion. My dealer is ready and willing to replace this relay, but it is not yet in production. *tr

There have been multiple occurrences. While driving down the road at the speed limit, all of a sudden the speed drops to 38 mph and the vehicle will go no faster. You can not accelerate beyond 38 mph, unless you pull over to the side of the road and shut the vehicle off. Then when you start the vehicle back up it is ok.
