Folks Recently caught in a snow storm, my mother in laws Crossfire was stranded as the ESP became confused or frozen and basically left the car in neutral. I wonder if this is a one time snow foul up or are there other instances of this in other Daimler Chrysler products? Thanks in advance. Cheers Bill m

30 years (off and on) driving Chrysler products (four current ones in the driveway now), haven't seen this issue.
That's what you get for buying a car with computer-controlled electronic buttwipers.
Next time put on the parking brake just a bit. If that does not work turn on the switch that turns off the traction control. If that does not work step on the brake a bit when you step on the gas.

Not a common problem with regards to the ESP system, at least not in the
300c's and magnums. The ESP is kind of amazing you would almost think it was like an all wheel drive. Your problem isnt normal, take it back and get that checked that is pretty major. But i have to ask, did you have the car in neutral? Ha ha.
