Consumer Description

VAN WAS PARKED IN OUR GARAGE. WE GOT IN TO GO TO CHURCH AND THE VAN WOULD NOT START!! I PUT MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE AND IT WAS ROCK-HARD AND WHEN I TURNED THE KEY IT JUST CLICKED AND TRIED TO START THEN DIED. I CONTINUED TO TRY TO START BY MOVING THE SHIFT LEVER/HITTING THE BRAKE/TURNING THE KEY AND THE VAN STARTED AND WE WENT TO CHURCH. TODAY, 10/29/14, I PARKED MY VAN AT WINN-DIXIE AND WENT INSIDE TO SHOP. WHEN I RETURNED TO LEAVE THE SAME SYMPTOMS EXHIBITED AND FINALLY THE VAN STARTED. I CALLED MY DEALER AND WAS TOLD THAT IT MAY BE ASSOCIATED WITH THE RECALL ON MY KEY FOB ELECTRONIC SHIFTER RECALL, BUT THERE WERE NO PARTS AVAILABLE YET. I WAS ALSO ASKED IF THERE WAS AN ENGINE LIGHT THAT WENT ON AND I SAID NO. I WAS TOLD THAT THEN THEY COULD NOT CHECK ON THEIR COMPUTERS FOR THE PROBLEM UNLESS THE "CHECK ENGINE LIGHT" HAD EXHIBITED. SO, HERE I AM--------------------WHAT SHOULD I DO????? *TR
