2000 Dodge Stratus stalling problem
I have a 2000 Dodge Stratus with 2.4 liter engine. About 4 weeks ago we were out and the car just quit with no warning after about an hour of driving and wouldn't start. After about 5 minutes it started back up but died again after a couple minutes. It did this several times so we left the car and got a ride home. Returned to the car 2 hours later and it started up and I drove it home with no problems. Didn't use the car at all for 2 weeks except to idle it in driveway which it would do for long periods of time with no problem and then I did drive the car and had the exact same issues as it quit on me after about an hour of driving. Let the car sit for 2 hours and then drove it home with no issues. Today I got in the car without even warming it up and drove only 5 minutes and had the same problems. I have changed both camshaft and crankshaft position sensors in the last 4 months due to another problem. Really need some help on this as I'm really confused. Forgot to mention that I swapped out the fuel pump relay and ASD relay yesterday. Really strange that it quit so fast today as it was only 5 minutes of driving and I hadn't even warmed the car up just came out started it up and left where the other incidents took place after about an hour and half of driving the car both times. I also swapped the black ignition module box and installed new spark plugs over the weekend. I'm really desperate as I'm unemployed and this is our only car and we need it as we drive my son to school as he can't ride the bus. Thanks in advance to anyone who tries to help. There are no codes being thrown when scanned and the check engine light has never come on and the car runs perfect when running and then it just quits
Wow! Seems like a real pain in the butt! What exactly happens when you say it quits? Does it still have battery power? Can you hear the fuel pump engage when you turn the key in the forward position without cranking? What was your original problem that led you to change the crankshaft sensors? Lets us know!
The car will just shut off with no warning. I could be driving on the highway 55 miles an hour, driving in my neighborhood at 25 miles an hour or the car might just quit while not moving at all. I do have battery power when the car stalls out and everything works except the car won't turn over. You can hear the fuel pump each time you turn the key on and we changed the crankshaft sensor as the car was running really bad and when we scanned it it gave us the code for that sensor.
