Consumer Description

THIS VAN AT VARIOUS SPEEDS WILL JERK SUDDENLY AS IF IT IS LOSING POWER. IT ALSO STALLS OUT AND HAS DONE THIS AT SPEEDS AS HIGH AS 40 MPH DRIVING IN TRAFFIC. I ADMIT THAT THIS IS A INTERMMITENT PROBLEM. I HAVE HAD IT TO THE DEALER SEVERAL TIMES AND THE PROBLEM HAS NOT BEEN DIAGNOSED. OBVIOUSLY THIS IS AN ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN THAT COULD BRING SEVERE INJURY TO MY FAMILY.
