Consumer Description

RECENTLY MY VAN HAS STARTED SHUTTING OFF AUTOMATICALLY FOR NO REASON WHILE IT SHOULD STILL BE RUNNING. SOMETIMES IT JUST SHUTS OFF AND THEN RESTARTS AND OTHER TIMES IT HAS SHUT OFF AND I HAVE HAD TO RESTART IT WITH THE KEY. THERE IS NO SPECIFIC THING THAT TRIGGERS THE ISSUE AND IT HAS HAPPENED WHILE SITTING STILL, AFTER PUTTING IT IN PARK, AND WHILE TURNING GOING DOWN THE ROAD. I LOOKED UP ANY RECALLS FOR THE VEHICLE BUT THERE WERE NON. HOWEVER, THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM FOR THE MINI VAN.
