YOUR CHOICE FOR THE TYPE OF CAR DID NOT LIST THE PACIFICA. I CHECKED LHS WHICH IS WWRONG. THE CAR THAT IS GIVING US A PROBLEM IS A CHRYSLER PACIFICA 2004. THREE MONTHS AGO THE PACIIFICA HAD A STALLING PROBLEM, IT WOULD STALL WHEN WE WOULD SLOW DOWN FOR A RED LIGHT . AFTER TWO TRIES IT WAS FIXED A WEEK AGO SO WHO KNOWS WHETHER IT HAS BEEN FIXED. A SOLENOID-LINEAR IACV WAS REPLACED. WE ALSO HAVE A STARTING PROBLEM. WHEN YOU TURN THE KEY ABSOLUTELY NOTHING HAPPENS, NO LIGHTS, THE ENGINE DOESN'T TURN OVER. IF YOU WAIT 15 MINUTES OR MORE THE CAR WILL START UP. THE INCIDENTS ARE INCREASING FROM ONCE A WEEK TO EVERY DAY. THE BATTERY HAS BEEN CHECKED AND IT IS OKAY. *AK
