My husband and I purchased a 1995 chrysler lhs back in the winter of 2000. When warmer weather hit we turned on our air conditioner and the car began to scream, we took it back and supposedly they fixed it, it happened again and we took it back to the place we bought it from again same thing for a third time and because we didn't have the money for an extended warranty they informed us they there was really nothing they could do for us but install a used condenser unit each time. Well it worked for a little while and then it quit again. My husband went and bought the parts we needed and fixed it himself. It worked fine for a few months and now same thing, no air conditioner. Just recently we began having a problem with the car stalling while driving. My husband replaced the crankshaft position sensor, it worked fine for a day and while driving with my 18 month old son in 90 degree weather it stalled about 25 times during our ride home. I had to pull over, shut the car off wait 5 mins and then try again. I held up traffic 3 times because there was not a shoulder to pull over on. I hate this car. Now there are so many things that could be the problem, as for putting it on a diagnostics machine, we did that and because the car needs to be driven to stall, no codes will come up, out another $125. This car is nothing but a money pit. As for the recalls, well this scares me as I could not possible find out the truth if the recall repairs were ever made. The fire hazard is enough not to want to drive the car. The recall I found deals with the fuel injection delivery system, system can leak fuel from some of the sealing o-rings or from hair line cracks in the thermoset fuel injection rail. Dealers will replace the fuel rail o rings and reinforce the outlet (passenger) side fuel rail. Vehicles showing fuel leakage on the outlet rail must have the outlet rail replaced which includes changing the upper and lower injector o-rings
