AnswerI have a 2000 Sebring convertible JXI v6 2.5 L

It was stalling out even while driving at high speeds. I read of three possibilities for this problem.

1. Bad MAP sensor. I replaced this since it was the easiest and least expensive thing to do. It had little to no affect.

2. Bad Crank Position Sensor. This part was $60 and a pain in the butt to get to. I replaced it one month ago, have been driving the car every day, and the problem has not returned. (Hint: It is easier to see this part through the driver side wheel well. You'll need about a 2 foot extension to reach the single bolt holding this part in place and you'll have to remove the tire and plastic wheel well covers.)

3. Unplug the over drive connection from the top of the transmission. Never got to this one since # 2 worked.
