NHTSA Complaint #10070682 — 1996 PLYMOUTH VOYAGER

I'M HAVING A PROBLEM RIGHT NOW CONCERNING THE VAN'S IGNITION OR FUEL COMPONENT. SINCE JUNE, 2003 THE ENGINE WILL ALL OF THE SUDDENT DIE OR THE COMPRESSION GOES DOWN TO A MINIMUM THAT WILL ALLOW THE ENGINE TO ONLY RUN; THIS HAS HAPPENED FOUR TIMES. THEN WHEN I LET THE ENGINE COOL DOWN FOR AWHILE, I CAN START IT UP AND IT WILL RUN OK FOR A WHILE. MECHANICS ARE TELLING ME THAT THEY CAN'T TELL WHAT THE PROBLEM IS UNTIL THE PROBLEM SHOWS ITSELF; ALSO THEY SAY IT COULD BE SOME KIND OF IGNITION MODULE OF SOME SORT. ON TWO OF THE OCCASIONS, I WAS ON A MAJOR FREEWAY WITH MY THREE KIDS IN TOW AND WE WERE STRANDED IN THE CAR POOL LANE. IF YOU HAVE ANY IDEAS OF WHAT THE PROBLEM COULD BE PLEASE LET ME KNOW. ALSO, MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS GO ON AT ANY TIME ON THEIR OWN AND MY PAINT PEELS IN THE BACK TOP OF THE VAN ADJACENT TO THE BACK HATCH.
