Hello. I am so glad I found this site. I thought maybe I was alone with my Cirrus. I mean I love my car, it's great, has a nice ride, but like all of you said, that stalling problem is killing me, I mean I wanna know why it does it.

I am sitting on 97 Chrysler Cirrus LXI and I love the car. It's fully loaded, candy apple red, tan leather, the works.

I wish I could find out why it does this. Mine lost power going to work one day, and I would put the pedal to the floor and nothing, so I was going to replace the whole motor for 1200, which includes parts and labor, but now that I've read around, I might just see if I can fix it for cheaper. Hopefully I can cause it is my only ride; right now I am driving my parent's minivan, which is a Dodge, which is the same company, so I am hoping I can fix it real easy.

Now I have been told that maybe the rings could be bad and fouling out the plugs, and that the valve seals could be bad, but after reading the comments here, I am thinking of just selling my car and getting something else.

The front brakes had to be replaced.

The front passenger upper and lower ball joints went.

The check Engine light kept coming on.

4 new tires had to be put on.

I have put over $2,000 into the car already.

The struts have to be replaced.

The car has a great leather inside its really roomy and its perfect for my family.

Another thing that I love about this car is that it has a huge trunk which has 2 12" subs, 1 10" sub and my 3 amps. The nice thing about this car is that it came with a CD changer already built right into the car. So hooking up my new sound system was'nt very hard to do.

When I am done I would have put over $40,000 into the car unless I do all the customizing my self.

The only problem was a broken exciter ring, part of the wheel assembly. I ran over a 2X4 on the freeway, thus breaking it. Thank GOD for my extended warranty, it was covered, otherwise ~$800 dollars to repair it.

I had been stopping at my local Chrysler dealer, prowling the lot. I came upon this Candy Apple Red Chrysler Cirrus, not jam packed loaded, but just enough to be a cool car. It was almost a year old when I bought it, well below the invoice pricing.

From start to finish my time with the Cirrus was a great one. Driving feel, control placement were right on the mark. I have never been in as comfortable a car since. The only gripe about the layout was the cup holders, which were rendered useless for anything other than a 12 ounce cup, as they were too close to the dashboard.

If they still made this car, in this state - I'd buy another one in a New York minute! What a great surprise from an unwanted car.
