| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I have a 1995 chrysler cirrus, v-6 engine with 82,000 miles. i have had a problem with this car since august 2003 and have not been able to resolve it. anytime i drive the vehicle for periods longer than 20 minutes it will just stall for no reason. when the problem happens it is as if someone has turned off the ignition. the car will restart after several hours but not before and when it does restart it is as if nothing was ever wrong. this can happen at any speed and is a very dangerous situation when it happens on the interstate. i have had the vehicle into the dealer and the response was " our educated guess is that it is the distributor and for $1,000 we will replace the distributor, we are not sure this is the problem but our best guess is it is". anytime i have had the vehicle towed into the dealer or any other repair center by time the car gets there and is evaluated the problem has went away just to arise a day later, a week later, or some period of time later. no other repair center will agree with the dealer that the problem is the distributor, and they admit they just do not know since the problem cannot be replicated while the repair shop has the vehicle. this seems to be a prevalent problem with this type of vehicle and engine from chrysler and its just a matter of time before someone gets killed from a vehicle stalling in heavy traffic in the middle lane on the interstate. *jb |
