NHTSA Complaint #10395624 — 2004 CHRYSLER PACIFICA

I BOUGHT MY 2004 CHRYS. PACIFICA 2 MONTHS AGO FROM A CARLOT. I TEST DROVE IT AND IT WAS DRIVING REALLY GOOD. I PAID FOR IT AND PULLED OFF THE LOT AND IT STARTED TRYING TO STALL ON MY EVERYTIME I PUSHED THE GAS IT WOULD DO IT THEN STOP FOR ABOUT A MIN THEN START AGAIN. IT WOULD JERK AS IT WAS TRYING TO STALL I FINALLY MADE IT HOME AND CALLED THE CARLOT AND THEY SAID TO TAKE IT TO THEIR CAR SHOP SO ON MY WAY THERE I STOPPED AT AUTOZONE AND HOOKED IT UP TO THEIR COMPUTER TO SEE WHAT IT WAS THAT WAS MESSING UP. THE COMPUTER "SAID" IT WAS THE CRANK SENSOR. SO WE TOOK IT TO THE SHOP AND THEY CHANGED THE CRANK SENSOR AND THE MOTOR LIGHT WENT OFF AND IT STOPPED DOING IT. THEY HAD IT FOR A WEEK AND THAT NEXT FRIDAY WHEN I GOT IT BACK I DROVE IT TO PAY A COUPLE BILLS AND IT STARTED IT AGAIN IT DID IT ABOUT 12 TIMES UNTIL IT FINALLY STALLED AND WOULD START BACK UP BUT STALL RIGHT AWAY UNTIL IT WOULD NOT EVEN START AGAIN. I LEFT IT IN THAT SPOT AND MY HUSBAND COME AND PICKED ME AND MY 3 KIDS UP AND THE NEXT DAY THE SHOP SAID TO BRING IT BACK TO THEM AND MY HUSBAND WENT TO PICK IT UP AND TAKE IT TO THE SHOP AND IT STARTED RIGHT UP AND DROVE HOME NO PROBLEM BUT THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS STILL ON THEN DROVE IT TO THE SHOP AND IT DONE IT 2 MORE TIMES. THE SHOP HAD IT FOR ANOTHER WEEK AND CHANGED THE CRANK SENSOR AGAIN AND FOUND OUT THE MOTOR MOUNT WAS BROKE TO AND FIXED THAT. I GOT THE CAR BACK AGAIN AND HAD IT FOR 2 DAYS AND IT STARTED DOING IT AGAIN. TOOK IT TO ANOTHER SHOP AND THE SHOP SAID THAT IT COULD BE ALL THE WIRING HARNESS AND SAID IT WOULD COST ME 3,000!!!!!!!! TO FIX I CAN NOT AFFORD THAT SO HERE I AM ONLY 2 MONTHS FROM BUYING A 10,000 DOLLAR CAR THAT I CAN NOT DRIVE THIS IS TERRIBLE AND SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE ABOUT THIS HAPPENING TO THE SAME KIND OF CARS ALL THE TIME I AM A MOTHER OF 3 AND GOING TO SCHOOL AND WORKING I NEED MY CAR. *TR
