Consumer Description

DODGE GRAND CARAVAN 2012 STALLED IN MOTION WHILE DRIVING ON AN EXPRESSWAY AT THE 65 MPH SPEED LIMIT. THE FOLLOWING MORNING I TOOK IT OUT ON A COUNTRY BACK ROAD AND AGAIN IT STALLED IN MOTION WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH SPEED LIMIT. I WAS ABLE TO STEER THE CAR WITHOUT POWER STEERING, AND APPLY BRAKES BUT THE SPEDOMETER, GAS, AND ENGINE ALL DIED AS I WAS DRIVING IT AS IF THE CAR WAS TURNED OFF. I AM DOUBTFUL THE REAR BRAKE LIGHTS WERE WORKING AND AM LUCKY NO ONE WAS BEHIND ME. FROM LOOKING IT UP I AM TOLD THAT THIS IS AN ISSUE WITH DODGE JEEPS AND VANS RELATED TO THE TIPM MODULE. IF I WAS AWARE OF THIS ISSUE BEFORE BUYING THE CAR, I MIGHT HAVE RECONSIDERED, IT IS SERIOUSLY DANGEROUS AND SOMEONE COULD EASILY BE KILLED IF THIS HAPPENS WHILE SOMEONE IS DRIVING BEHIND YOU AND THE VAN JUST DIES.
