When was the last tune-up? Is the Check Engine light on?

There is no distributor, but one dead section of the coil pack is a possibility. It will kill two cylinders. Chrysler has extremely little trouble with injectors.

Now you know how mechanics feel when they get blamed for everything that happens after they touch a customer's car.
