Consumer Description

AS I PUT THE HEAT, DEFROSTER, OR AIR CONDITIONING ON, IT JERKS ALOT AND WHEN I STOP AT A RED LIGHT OR STOP SIGN IT STALLS. I HAVE TO PUT MY 4 WAYS ON, SHUT THE VAN OFF, AND RESTART IT WITHOUT THE HEAT OR AIR ON. I FEEL THIS IS A VERY DRASTIC SAFETY ISSUE DUE TO THE FACT IF I'M DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY AND I STOP AT A RED LIGHT AND IT STALLS, IF THERE IS TRAFFIC BEHIND ME COMING RAPIDLY I CAN BE REAR ENDED AND CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME IN THE NOVEMBER INCIDENT. LUCKILY THE LIGHT WAS STILL RED. *JS
