problem #2

2008Mar 23

Stratus ES 2.5L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 95,000 miles

I BOUGHT THIS CAR 2 MOS AGO. FIRST, THE POWER STEER PUMP WENT OUT, FIXED IT. THE HEATER/AC FAN ONLY RUNS ON HIGH. DIDN'T FIX IT. THE CAR VIBRATES, RUNS ROUGH. GAVE A TUNE-UP. STILL RUNS ROUGH. BUT NOW THE CAR SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING. NO ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON TO FIND OUT THE PROBLEM SO WE JUST DO THE LITTLE THINGS LIKE PUT A NEW FUEL RELAY, GAS FILTER. WE DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO NEXT. I REALLY NEED A CAR TO TRAVEL TO SCHOOL AND I DON'T WANT THIS CAR QUITTING ON ME WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY. PLEASE HELP

The car ran perfectly fine until last fall. Now it drives like an old clunker! The problem is so much worse when the a/c is on that I only can run it until the car feels like it is going to just die and then I have to shut it off. Big pain!
