PER THE RECALL, THE TRANSAXLE OIL PUMP MAY EXPERIENCE A LOSS OF PRESSURE WHILE DRIVING AND WILL RESULT IN A LOSS OF POWER AND COULD CAUSE A CRASH WITHOUT WARNING. I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO GET IN TOUCH WITH THE DEALERSHIP I BOUGHT THE VAN FROM NEW(L&M MOTORS IN ATHENS, TN), AND FOR ABOUT 4 WEEKS THEY KEEP TELLING ME TO CALL BACK NEXT WEEK. I HAVE A FAMILY WITH TWO YOUNG BOYS. I BOUGHT THE VAN TO MAKE SURE THEY WERE SAFE, AND I DON'T FEEL SAFE WITH THEM RIDING IN IT. I DON'T HAVE ANOTHER VEHICLE TO PARK THIS ONE. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY THEY DON…

CPSC: THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS BLINKING AND THE VAN KEPT STALLING. THEN THERE WAS THE PROBLEM WITH THE SLIDING DOOR FLEW OPEN WHILE DRIVING. *BF THE DEALER FOUND THE RIGHT SIDE SLIDING DOOR HANDLE BUTTON WAS STICKING. THEY REPLACED THE HANDLE AND RE-INSTALLED A TOP HINGE. THE CONSUMER HAD TO RETURN TO THE DEALER FOR A SECOND TIME, BECAUSE THE RIGHT SLIDING DOOR WAS MAKING A NOISE AND IT STILL WAS NOT LATCHING PROPERLY. AGAIN, THE DEALER ADJUSTED THE TOP DOOR ROLLER, CLEARED AND LUBED THE TRACKS. THE NEXT DAY, THERE WAS STILL A NOISE IN THE…

WHILE DRIVING DOWN A RURAL ROAD AT APPROXIMATELY 55MPH THE ENGINE SUDDENLY SHUT OFF. THE GAS TANK WAS ONLY 3 MILES FROM FULL AFTER JUST HAVING FILLED THE TANK, AND NO ELECTRICAL LIGHTS OR SENSORS INDICATED ANY ISSUES. I WAS ABLE TO STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD AS THERE WAS NO TRAFFIC AND RESTART THE VEHICLE WITHOUT INCIDENT, WHICH WAS ADVANTAGEOUS AS I HAD MY THREE YOUNG CHILDREN IN THE VEHICLE AND COULD HAVE BEEN DANGEROUS OTHERWISE. THIS HAPPENED ONLY ONE TIME, AND HAS NOT HAPPENED AGAIN. I DID NOT TAKE IT TO A DEALERSHIP OR REPAIR SHOP, O…

ON AUGUST 15, 2017, WHILE DRIVING UP A HIGHWAY INCLINE, THE VEHICLE LOST POWER, POWER STEERING AND POWER BRAKES. I WAS APPROACHING A STOP LIGHT ABOUT AN EIGTH MILE AWAY SO I ALLOWED THE VEHICLE TO COAST, FORCEABLY STEERING IT THROUGH A SLIGHT CURVE AND THEN BRAKING. WHEN I STOPPED, I PUT THE GEAR SELECTOR INTO PARK AND THEN RESTARTED THE VEHICLE. I CALLED MY LOCAL CHRYSLER DEALER THE NEXT MORNING. THEY STATED THAT BECAUSE THERE WAS NO "CHECK ENGINE" LIGHT AND UNLESS IT HAPPENED AGAIN WHILE THEY WERE DRIVING IT THEY WOULD BE UNABLE TO KNOW …
