2000 Chrysler Cirrus Car shuts off at high speed

When the vehicle dies on you, how hard is it to re-start? One time and it restarts, takes a few cranks, has to wait a few minutes, etc?

I have the same thing with my 2000 Cirrus. For me it usually takes at least two minutes, but my last trip after two hours of highway driving, it left me on the side of the highway eight times! Not a comfortable place to be! Chrysler mechanics think its the fuel pump but aren't sure. As soon as it happens, I start my car partway and can hear the fuel pump whine. Any ideas?

Hi there, In the future, to get better result, do not reply to an existing post. Create your own post.

As we have so many questions, when a technician opens up a forum, he/she will generally looks for the ones that have not been answered. The ones that have already had more than one replied will be assumed that they have been taken care of. Any way, with regards to your problem, have your mechanic to start checking the camshaft and crankshaft position sensors. these two sensors work in tandem and are responsible for ignition timing and fuel delivery. So, it doesn't matter if you have spark and fuel (most basic things to check for no-start conditions), your vehicle requires both sensor to be operational for the spark to ignite the fuel.
