In late June of 2004 vechicle had stalled while driving for no apperent reason and would not start. The emc was replaced. Five months later it repeated the same problem... all wiring has been checked emc replaced, coil pack replaced, crank shaft sensor replaced and the dealership cannot find the problem after 6 weeks.

1996 Plymouth Voyager ;when ignition key is switch to on.front windshield wiper will turn on for a brief period and power door lock makes like a grinding noise.note the engine has not been crank and started yet and all the switches has been off and not touch at all.eventually a few days after incident some switches to the HVAC fan has not been working and the factory stereo eventually malfunction.you cannot tune the am/fm tuner it stays in 1 station.the automatic transmission at times wont shift and other times will shift without problem.the minivan has 48.500 miles only.I brought it to the dealer at mall chysler and they recomended transmission fluid replacement and replace clock spring, and repair fluel rail-injection.there is no change in the transmission shift, it still occasionally refuses to shift at times noticing the tach needle going at 4,000rpm with speed of only 30-40mph.the symptoms remains with wiper having a mind of its own turning on when inginition is on.another prolem comes up after I brought van to the dealer.occasionally interior lights will come on when I'm driving.also head gasket leaking.I hope Chrysler will help me.
