When I'am driveing sometimes the engine just stops(dies). Sometimes the engine will start back up right a way and sometimes you have to wait 15 or 20 min. then it will start. Seems worst sometimes when it is hot out.

Hi:
Is the check engine light on? Also, when it dies, it will need to be checked for spark and fuel while it's down. That way we know what direction to go.

PS: Have the computer scanned at a nationally recognized parts store to see if there are any trouble codes. Most places will do it for free.

SAME THING WITH MY 98 SEBRING,
I REPLACE THE FULE PUMP $300..IT DID FINE FOR 1DAY
THEN BACK TO DIEING ....
THE CHRYSLOR DEALER REPLACED THE 'CRANK SENSOR SWITCH' AT $275. .. I DROVE IT ALL OF 1 "BLOCK..
AND IT DIED...
2 WEEKS THEY "PLAYED WITH IT"
NOW THEY WANT $1200. TO REPLACE THE DISTRIBUTOR......

MY ADVICE, PRAY AND SELL THE CAR!!!!

I might BUY A DISTRIBUTOR ON E-BAY..$200-$300
THIS WEEK.... I LET YA KNOW IF IT WORKS...
