“1990 Plymouth voyager with the 3.3 engine, run the vehicle 20 or 30 minutes and shut it off leave it sit 15 or 20 minutes then start it up and put it in drive it does not want to shift out of low. If I shut it off and start it up and put it in drive 3 or 4 times it will start working. I also have had it shifting ok been on the highway in od and the transmission kicks out of gear until it gets back down to 25, 30 MPH then it slams into low.”

NHTSA complaint #10047611, filed 2003-11

“We were almost killed several times when the car stopped dead on highways. Each time we brought it to a dealer, they never found anything wrong because after a while the car would run again. Finally when we were out off warranty and out of the extra coverage we had purchased, we were on our own. We changed the fuel pump/we had new wiring installed and the car still died frquently. It's now sitting on our driveway dead. Also, rack and pinion went. It was always a problem.we met other people with the same problems who could and did change their vehicles.”
