Replace the cam and crank sensors. If they are the original parts they are most likely in need of replacement. Do not cheap out and try to save a buck by buying the least expensive sensors you can find. Factory Mopar sensors are recommended, but high quality aftermarket brands would be almost as good. I have had good luck with Standard and BWD brands, you can find those at O'reilly's and Napa.
