Default Dies on the freeway

My son borrowed our crossfire this weekend to make a 400 mile trip. On the way back he suddenly lost power and had to pull off to the side of the road. He turned the ignition switch off and then tried to start the car. She started right up and was able to make the trip back home. Has anyone else had this happen?

I'm going to pull an HDDP here and say, "use the search function"

Yes, it has happened to multiple people and there are multiple posts on this subject.

You must not visit too often. One year member and 13 posts!
If you had checked in once in a while you would know that this has been a problem for some members. And now you are one of them!
A quick search turned up a few posts with similar problems. Check them out.

Try this post also. Could be the crank sensor or the relay control module.

Does the car not crank at all (RCM), or does it crank and just not start (Crank sensor)?
The symptom will help in figuring out the problem.
Good luck with it!
