Cirrus

  • 84,730 miles
I have a 1998 Chrysler Cirrus with 84,730 miles on it. This car keeps shutting off while I am driving. I've been told I need to replace the computer, the fuel injection system, crankshaft/camshaft sensors, new battery- you name it I've been told. Now my check engine light is on as well as my oil light and no one can tell me what needs to be done! the following website, www.carsurvey.org/reviews/Chrysler/Cirrus/R64403/comments/page-5/, has a list of complaints about this vehicle and the same problem people have experienced- sudden stop syndrome. Something needs to be done about this car because I have four children and I do not like risking our lives, but it is my only mode of transportation. I cannot afford to make these costly repairs, especially when no one can tell me what is wrong. The brake pedal becomes hard to operate and if I go under 15 mph, it will shut off. Sometimes it won't even turn back on for at least 10-15 minutes. I thought I was the only one with this problem, but I'm not and Chrysler needs to be held responsible!
