Engine check light illuminated, indicating a malfunction within system, cause unknown.dealer replaced the oxygen sensor which did not correct the problem. I had the oxygen sensor replaced again along with a exhaust manifold- still did not correct the problem. Check engine light on again! Driving at about 65mph on busy highways the car just shuts down. Any information would be helpful.

When I purchased my car, I purchased it used. I noticed the engine light was on. I was then informed by the dealer that there was a short or a sensor problem. I then took my car to dealership to have them check it out. I was informed that it was a sensor light burn out, and that is was not getting oxygen to the engine. I paid $250. On a tuesday to get that fixed. That wednesday the light was back on. I brought the car back down to the dealership. I was then informed that there is about 3 sensors in the engine, and another one has gone out. And it will cost me another $250. To replace that one. This was all in a 2 day span. I would like to know if there is anything that I can do about this, or will I have to keep paying till all the sensors are replaced, and how will I know if they all have been replaced. Very upset costumer. And I work for chrysler, this is terrible business.

My transmission is starting to fail at 62,000 miles. Why? My water pump was recently replaced. Then my engine light went on and the plugs and wires had to be replaced and the mechanic told me the transmission is staring to go. I have noticed that the engine is racing but the car is having a difficult time keeping up with the engine. Sure sign.

We had to replace the oxygen sensors to be able to get the engine light off and then the ignition fuses started to burn out. They only burn out when you turn right. It also happened at a low speed of 35 miles per hour. Can you tell me what the problem is. Nlm
