2002 automatic sunfire

[Scott]

I have a 2002 sunfire that stops running for no reason about 4-5 times a month regardless of the weather conditions but restarts right away & runs great. Changed the fuel filter but that didn't help & there are no lights on the dash. I've been dealing with this for several months now & even took it to the dealer but they didn't find anything. Thanks, Scott(new member)

Sunfires are notoriuos for failed plug wires, but they don't "fix" themselves. Could be cracked coil(s) that just does not show up.

I just bought a 2001 Sunfire with only 24,000 miles. I have owned 6 Pontiacs over the last 45 years and this is by far the biggest POS I have ever owned. I switched to Fords years ago and should have stuck with them .. I'll never have another one .. and sure will never have another one with a GM made motor.
