6th Gen ('00-'05): Random engine shut off
#1
Random engine shut off
I have a 2000 with the 3.4 l . The engine just shuts off at random times . The only thing it shows is a battery light. No engine codes. I have replaced the battery and double checked connection. Still no resolution to the problem. My little girl drives this car and I'm afraid of what could happen. Please help .

Just recently happened to me too!
No joke; just last week my engine did the same exact thing. Steering wheel locked up at 60mph on the interstate. Talk about scary... I could’ve died!
Battery light did come on, no other lights on BUT my entire cluster gauge is erratic and soon to be repaired. I believe it is causing many other issues as my transmission tends to slip and has rough shifts. Also low gas mileage and power recently. I have the 2005 supercharged SS. After I pulled over and parked the car I turned it off and started it right back up. No problem...
Dealership mentioned replacing the Fuel Pressure Sensor and Valve Body plus a Transmission Flush. And the Cluster Gauge of course.. $3500 estimated and I don’t know what really needs to be done or is causing the shifting problems either. I don’t trust the Dealership in being completely 100% honest. Help is appreciated
