1990 CHRYSLER LEBARON Electrical System Problems

CAR TOTALLY SHUTS DOWN WHEN DRIVING. HAS HAPPENED NUMEROUS TIMES (MORE THAN 20+) OVER LAST 8 MONTHS. SOMETIMES IT WILL RESTART IN APPROXIMATELY 5 MINUTES, OTHER TIMES IT WON'T. SPEED DOES NOT SEEM TO BE A FACTOR AS IT HAS HAPPENED AT 30 MPH AS WELL AS 65. WEATHER DOESN'T SEEM TO BE A FACTOR. THIS PROBLEM IS SPORADIC - SOMETIMES IT WILL HAPPEN 3 TIMES IN ONE DAY OVER A DISTANCE OF 5 MILES, OTHER TIMES IT WILL RUN FINE FOR A COUPLE WEEKS AND THEN SUDDENLY SHUT DOWN. I HAVE HAD IT IN TWO DIFFERENT GARAGES SEVERAL TIMES AND THEY CAN'T FIGURE OUT WHAT PROBLEM IS DUE TO IT NOT ACTING UP WHEN THEY HAVE IT. I CALLED THE CHRYSLER GARAGE IN PLYMOUTH, IN AND THEY SAID THEY COULDN'T HELP ME UNLESS THEY ACTUALLY SEE THE PROBLEM HAPPEN. I CANNOT PREDICT WHEN THIS WILL HAPPEN AND HAVE NO WARNING AHEAD OF TIME. THIS IS ESPECIALLY SCARY WHEN DRIVING ON A BUSY HIGHWAY WITH SEMIS.*AK

MY TRANSMISSION FAILED AFTER MY WARRANTY OF 70,000/7YEAR. I HAD TO REPLACE THE WHOLE TRANSMISSION. BOTH POWER WINDOW MOTORS NEED TO BE REPLACED AND THE EXTERIOR PAINT IS ERODING AT AN ALARMING RATE. IS THE CHRYSLER MANUFACTURER RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY OF THESE DAMAGES TO MY VEHICLE? AM I ENTITLED TO ANY COMPENSATION FOR THESE FAULTY MECHANISMS THAT HAPPENED TO MY CAR? I WILL NEVER PURCHASE A CHRYSLER PRODUCT AGAIN, BECAUSE IT SEEMS THAT THESE MISFORTURNES HAPPENED AFTER THE WARRANTY OF 70,000 MILES. THE CAR IS FALLING APART IN THE INTERIOR AND THE EXTERIOR. THE CAR IS MAINTENANCED EVERY 2500 MILES WITH OIL AND LUBE CHANGES.
