My 2006 5.7 Hemi Charger will be runing along just fine then all of a sudden just loose all power. This happens at freeway speed or just taking off from a stop. It has happened with the engine warm or cold and on hot or cold days. It might happen once or twice one day them not for week or can be a consistant problem for days in a row. It has just began dying at an idle as soon as it's put in gear. I just replaced the crankshaft and camshaft position sensors and it fired right up and purred like a kitten - sounded better and felt smoother than it has in quite a while. Unfortunatly it still dies within between two and twenty seconds after putting it in gear.

the only way to tell for sure is to have the engine anylized with a real time scanner, it could be a sensor or actuator that is not throwing a code so a scan for codes will not help, if all seems to be od start looking for vacuum leaks, air bubbles in the fuel, fuel pressure constant, etc

2006 JeepCommander temp gauge runs hot when idle or slow; at speed it's fine;radiator fan does not turn on. Is there a fuse I can check or can I diagnose myself; could it be temp guage ? Thanks

2006 Jeep Commander 5.7L Hemi, Owner and car-mechanic here...I do not know what engine you've got. But the have Hydraulically-Operated cooling fans on them, run off of the Power Steering system. Mine does not like traffic or idling, she runs cooler at 70-80MPH! You have fan, fan solenoid, and hydraulic lines to the fan.

I am thinking that you have a low coolant level in the radiator or blocked core fins on the radiator. The wrench symbol indicates a engine problem and the loss of power would be the limp home mode clicking in to prevent damage to the engine. I suggest you have a coolant system pressure test done to check for leaks and have a flow test done on the radiator to check for blocked cores. Driving around the farm is not stress full enough to demand a good coolant system but the added stress of heavy load high speed on the highway reveals problems in the coolant system /radiator areas.

The very first thing you need to do is a good tuneup including plugs, wires, rotor, cap, air and fuel filters and fix the exhaust. There is a good chance your problem will be solved. Note that your car MUST have an intact exhaust system or it will lose a lot of power.

Vibration in steering wheel when traveling over bumps or rouph road conditions. Most noticable at freeway speeds, going over expansion joints. 100,000 miles 4x4 5.7 hemi

I am assuming that the vibration is not constant?

Therefore we need to look at some loose suspension/steering parts like tie rods, ball joints and/or steering column.

If you wait a while you may find the concern is easier to find because you'll hear a clunking noise but this is not the safe path since the part is already failing

bottom line, if you do not have suspension/steering experience your best bet will be to take your vehicle to a good shop or dealer ASAP


let me know if I can be any further assistance.
