NHTSA Complaint #712875 — 1997 PLYMOUTH VOYAGER

SINCE THE LATE WINTER OF 97/98, THE VEHICLE IN QUESTION HAS SUFFERED OCCASIONAL INEXPLICABLE STALLS. USUALLY THEY WOULD OCCUR WHEN THE ENGINE WAS WARM AND THE CAR HAD COME TO A ROUTINE STOP (E.G. RED LIGHT). THE CAR WOULD THEN STALL. MORE ALARMINGLY, ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS IT HAS STALLED WHILE MOVING IN TRAFFIC CREATING A POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS SITUATION. THE CAR HAS BEEN RETURNED TO THE DEALER FOR CORRECTION OVER A HALF DOZEN TIMES. TWICE THE "CO-PILOT" WAS INSTALLED. THE DEALER HAS BEEN UNABLE TO RECREATE OR DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM. THEIR ONLY SUGGESTIONS HAVE BEEN TO SWITCH TO A LOWER OCTANE FUEL AND TO USE ONLY A SINGLE KEY ON THE KEYCHAIN. NEITHER CEASED THE PROBLEM. SUBSEQUENTLY THEY HAVE ONLY CONTINUED TO SAY, BRING IT BACK. IN THE INTERIM, A POTENTIALLY TRAGIC HAZARD CONTINUES TO EXIST. PLEASE ADVISE AS TO ANY ALTERNATIVES. THE PRIMARY DRIVER IS MY WIFE, PATRICIA FLYNN, WORK # 617-424-0665.
