problem #4

Grand Caravan

  • 3,983 miles
Driving on the interstate, had to apply brakes hard, then had to pump the excellerator and then floore it to get gas to engine to resume momentum. After that it does it does this intermediately, maybe for quite awhile the same day and not again for weeks. The check engine light does not come on and there are times that the RPM's have jumped up to 4 and almost 5, the engine sounds like a race car and little movement and then quickly lunges forward, at other sounds like it has shifted and you still have not increased in speed. The dealership kept this vechile over a week and they had no problems. Another date it was doing this was on an exit ramp from the interstate in creeping, stop and go traffic. Taken straight to dealership from there acting up all the way. Vechile was not shut off when rep from service department went as passenger there were no problems.

Purchased this brand new several months ago. Drove 8,000 miles to and from work. Twice within the past week the van has completely just turned off on the highway. I have no idea why. I was just driving down the highway and the van just turned off. It's as if someone were to grab the keys and turn it off. I put it in neutral and restarted and kept driving. Fortunately, I was quick enough and my children and I were safe.

The vehicle's rear passenger sliding door will not unlock either from the fob or from the outside of the vehicle. This very well could cause a safety concern.

I was driving at 2 or 3 mph in heavy traffic on a city street and the car accelerated when I touched the brake. Pressure on the brake pedal would not stop the vehicle and it crashed into the car ahead, pushing it into the second car ahead. Eventually the rpms dropped after the collision. Fault code showed headlamp module (tipm)
