Default Stratus

I have a story for you guys and gals I have two cars my 318ti and a dodge stratus 2005. Friday i took the stratus to a class for work which was about a 40mile round trip driving there the car was fine, on the way back little over half way the stratus decides to take a crap. I was on the highway doing 65mph on cruise and the next thing i here is "DING" and i looked the cel light came on and the car started bucking and shaking real bad. I limp it home at 45-50mph on the highway it wont let me go over 50 it would start bucking and shaking. So i get it home shut the car off pop the hood check the fluids, look for loose connection nothing. So then i turn the ignition key to the on position 4 times so that way it would tell me the code and its a P0340 code look it up and the cam position sensor fault. I cant believe this is happening the car is 6years old and only has 85000 miles on it going to get rid of it next month and getting a X5 that was the straw that broke the camels back

thanks for letting me vent
