It will start right up and then die

Hi, I'm one of the auto experts on RepairPal's Car Genius team! Great question, and a start and stall condition is definitely something worth getting sorted out! On your 2005 Chrysler Sebring an engine that starts and then dies shortly after is a pretty common issue and can point to a few different causes. A failing crankshaft position sensor is one of the most frequent culprits on this generation Chrysler, as it can allow the engine to briefly start but then cut out once it fails to maintain a proper signal. A faulty idle air control valve, a failing fuel pump that can't maintain adequate pressure, or an issue with the ASD relay which controls fuel and ignition are also worth considering. Since there are several possible causes here we'd recommend having a qualified shop pull any stored trouble codes as a first step, as this will likely point directly to the root cause and save a lot of guesswork and unnecessary parts replacement.
