I know this is an old thread, but I have been having the same problem with my 08 Hemi 2wd. What if anything did the dealer do? I have now replaced the crank position sensor 2x. I also had history codes of 0300, 1128, and 1129. The first time I replaced it myself. The second time I had my mechanic do it. He suggested that if it keeps up, it may need to have the computer reprogrammed or replaced? I just got back from vacation and this is what I ran into! Thank goodness we took the wifes Tahoe to Galveston!

One thing you need to make sure is that the sensors are getting both power and ground. most PCM's send out one wire for the power and one ground to all of the main engine sensors (crank, cam, tps etc.) double check where these splice together in the wiring harness if you have replaced any of the sensors in question and it doesn't fix the problem.



hope this info helps



P.S. i have run into the splice looking great but not being a good enough connection be sure if you repair any splices to use the soldering method. there is a aright way and a wrong way to solder so be sure to do it right the first time.

my buddy's durango had the same starting problems and would just shut off like yours. Turned out to be the fuel pump. he also had a light for 6th cylinder misfire. just a suggestion.
