Check fuses, fuel pump, fuel filter, check engine fault codes, check security system, etc. If it turns over we know battery is good. Now we need to determine which system is faulty, ignition or fuel. Spray some ether into intake and try to start. if it starts we know you have fuel system fault. if no start on ether try a few times to be sure. About 1 second spray should do it. If it still wont start id look into spark delivery.

My 07 durango would stall while driving. I replaced the map and tpm sensor and now the truck drives like new. Hope this helps, total cost was roughly $80 in parts and to have sears do it, cost $260.

I work on many 5.7 hemi engines and the problem you described sound like you're having an issue with either the fuel pump or the crankshaft position sensor. Just pull the OBD2 codes, but I'm sure it's what I said above.

I have an 06 Durango. It was snowing but it wasn't sticking to the roads. As I was pulling into a parking lot my engine shut off. Luckily I was still moving so I got in the parking lot before I came to a stop. It started right up. Now I'm worried if that happens when I'm on a highway. I have been having issues with my evap system lately. I pump my own gas because sometimes the pump will shut off believing the tank to be full. When it's actually near empty.
