I decided to take the car out to clear the TPMS code and go see the progress on my house... this was a bad idea. The car started to misfire again (a persistant problem which I thought was resolved back in Jan/Feb), so I pull the car onto the shoulder, shut it down and restart it. Car starts up fine, idles normally, so I take off, well I get to 65kms / hr and the car starts to misfire, but this time the check engine light chimes 3 times and blinks, and the car shuts down completely sending me into coasting mode, well the steering locks up and the brakes are not responding... so I held on for dear life as the car and i went into the ditch, through a pile of dirt and gravel, up the ditch and apparently into the air over an embankment and landed / stopped nose down on the other side of the embankment.

First, let me say that we have a 93 Daytona that we bought new in 92 and have had no problems other than a couple fuel pumps and water pumps.....not bad at all for 330,000 miles.
We're considering purchasing an SE Challenger and have read this saga with disbelief at Mother Mopar's backing away from resolving the issues with this car!!
So....let me get this straight, if the engine quits while going down the road the steering and brakes will not function??!!!! Or you just lose power assist?
If steering and brakes quit when the motor (or electronics) messes up, this thing looks like a death trap!!
