Wiring Problems of Plymouth Breeze

Check engine light came on, p0700 & p0725 codes. There are related to transaxle problems. Transmission will, after about 30 miles of freeway driving, jerk slightly, then "check engine" light will come on. Transmission then shifts poorly, jerks and slams on down and up shifts. Trans will then go into limp mode, limiting speed to 45 mph max. Researched the problem online, there are 1000's of similar transaxle problems reported. So far, have changed trans fluid, twice. Last time cost was $150+. Replaced input and output trans sensors, input replaced twice. Cleaned all underhood grounds, reset computer by battery disconnect. Taken to independent shop, they said maybe crank position sensor or trans control computer. Took to dealer, they checked and found faulty input trans speed sensor. This car only has 63k miles, it should not be having this much powertrain trouble. So far spent about $700, still have the problem, as 1000's of other people. Many reports of hit and miss repairs, including solenoid packs, tcm replacements, and trans overhauls. This is a known problem that has been experienced for years by 1000's of owners. This is a poorly designed product, and Chrysler should be held accountable.

On this Sunday at 12:15 pm my 1997 Plymouth Breeze caught on fire. It was sitting in the driveway with no one around it. My wife noticed it when the horn started blowing. I was across the street at a neighbors. Flames were shooting out of the front windshield. The dash above the steering wheel, the steering wheel it self and the driver side door area melted and blackened the worse. The fire dept. Was called immediately.
