We had just turned into our subdivision and all the lights in the dash illuminated, the windshield wipers turned on and then while driving down the road the engine shut off. We were traveling at a low speed so when the van came to a stop we were able to restart it. The dealership didn't sound to concerned and are going to look at the van on Thursday. I'm extremely disappointed with their response as this could have easily happened with my kids in the car when it was traveling at a higher rate of speed.

Transmission failure
- New Franklin, OH, USA
Vehicle has had repeated issues with acceleration and shifting gears since purchase. Vehicle will not accelerate over 40 mph while driving and rpms redline. It has been in for repair for over 40 days since March 2016 and is currently at dealership. Most recently the vehicle lost all power, including ability to steer and brake properly, after being in reverse backing out of my driveway. During the last two incidents, no warning lights have illuminated, nor have there been any fault codes found in the vehicle's system. The van is extremely unsafe and unreliable, and is a danger to myself and three young children - as well as other vehicles on the road. I have requested arbitration under New York state's lemon law and I have attached a copy of paperwork recently submitted. The pdf describes, in greater detail, the ongoing issues with the vehicle, as well as Chrysler's repeated attempts to service it without success. Since vehicles are mass produced, I worry that other consumers are experiencing these same dangerous issues, with no remedy in sight. Thank you for looking into this matter.
