My 1995 Chrysler Concorde with 3.3-litre V6 engine. VIN#[xxx] the engine shuts off during driving. Sometimes the engine restarts on its own immediately while coasting after it shuts off. Sometimes I have to pull off the road and wait a couple of minutes for it to restart. It has been happening about once or twice a week. The local dealership could not diagnose the problem, and at $85/hour diagnostic time, I am reluctant to bring it to them again. Most recently this happened on June 23, 2004. On that day, while driving, the first time time the engine shut down and restarted by itself, the second time later in the day, the engine shut down and I had to restart it a few minutes later. VIN is [xxx]. mileage is 108,852. Purchased 6/00 at croton Dodge, croton-on-hudson, NY. Updated 07/25/2012 information redacted pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Rack and pinion was repaired by dealership in South bend. Started to smell gas fumes in vehicle while driving to Washington. Tried to get repairs in South Dakota but was unable to find a dealership who would repair it. Located dealership in pasco, washinton torepair the fuel line which was not connected properly after rack repair, as I was told by dealer. Battery exploded while in parking lot at local mall. Air conditioner started emitting musty smell. Had air conditioner charged twice and it still doesnt seem to hold a charge. Car would not start on 12/3/1999. Thinking it was the battery, tried to jump the car but was told by mechanic that it sounded like it might be the timing belt. Now I find the water pump leaked which may have caused a blown gasket.
