POST FILL UP AT LOCAL SERVICE STATION ENGINE STARTED CUTTING OUT THEN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. LUCKILY THE WIFE WAS CLOSE TO HOUSE AND SHE MADE IT BACK HOME. I PULLED CODE P0300 WHICH IS A RANDOM MISFIRE DETECTED AS PER CHRYSLER SPECS. VERIFYING ALL PLUGS WERE IN GOOD WORKING ORDER BY PULLING TWO AT A TIME. I RESET THE PCM BY DISCONNECTING THE BATTERY AND PULLING FUSE #11 UNDER THE HOOD. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT TURNED OFF AND THE PROBLEM WAS GONE. SINCE THE INCIDENT I HAVE FELT UNSAFE PUTTING MY WIFE AND KIDS IN THE VEHICLE. POST FILL UP A WEEK LATER SAME THING. I PERFORMED THE SAME STEPS TO REMEDY THE PROBLEM. I DO NOT FEEL I HAVE RECEIVED BAD GAS AS MY WHOLE SUBDIVISION (2,600 HOMES) UTILIZES THIS LOCAL SERVICE STATION.
