The vehicle is turning off completely ir dying when driving. This is happening multiple times. I have to coast safely to pull over, can barely steer to get off the road. This happened 3 times on the way to town. This is very dangerous, I was lucky that I was able to pull over. If I was on express way I would have been in a crash.i don't feel safe driving the car with it cutting off intermittently without any warning.
I BEGAN HAVING TROUBLE WITH MY RIGHT FRONT WINDOW NOT ROLLING DOWN. THEN HEAD LIGHTS BEGAN TO FLASH ON AND OFF. I DISCONNECTED THE BATTERY FIRST NEGATIVE THEN POSITIVE REMOVED ECM AND CLEANED ALL PINS ON ECM AND THE SOCKET IT PLUGS INTO USING ELECTRONIC PARTS CLEANER. I WAITED FOR THE SOCKET AND PINS TO DRY BEFORE REPLACING THE ECM AND RECONNECTING THE POWER. PROBLEM RESOLVED ITSELF FOR A WHILE. NOW ALL PROBLEMS CAME BACK AND THE BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON. REPLACED THE BATTERY AND ALTERNATOR. THE PROBLEM WENT AWAY FOR A WEEK NOW ALL PROBLEMS CAME BACK AND VEHICLE IS UNABLE TO BE DRIVEN. I BELIEVE THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE ECM'S MADE FOR THIS VEHICLE. THERE ARE MANY REPORTS OF PEOPLE HAVING THE SAME ISSUES AND NO RECALLS. I BELIEVE THAT THE ECM IS CAUSING MANY PROBLEMS SINCE ALL 3 ISSUES ARE CONTROLLED BY THE ECM UNIT....
I BOUGHT A 2006 DODGE CARAVAN IN 2009. IT HAD 20,000 AT THAT TIME. SHORTLY AFTER PURCHASE WE DROVE THE VAN APPROXIMATELY 100 MILES. IT BEGAN MAKING ROARING NOISES SO I PULLED OVER AND STOPPED. AFTER SITTING FOR ABOUT 20 MINUTES, I STARTED THE CAR AGAIN AND THERE WAS NO NOISE. EVERY TIME I TRAVELED FOR OVER 45 MINUTES, THIS WOULD HAPPEN. I TOOK THE CAR TO BE LOOKED AT SEVERAL TIMES BUT NO ONE COULD FIND A PROBLEM. FINALLY IN JANUARY OF THIS YEAR THE CAR STARTED MAKING THIS NOISE ALL OF THE TIME AND MY SON-IN-LAW, WHO IS A MECHANIC, SAID THAT IT NEEDED POWER STEERING FLUID. THAT FIXED THE PROBLEM FOR AWHILE. IN MARCH, I TOOK MY CAR IN AND WAS TOLD THAT THE RACK AND PINION NEEDS TO BE REPLACED! VERY EXPENSIVE! THE CAR IS NOW ONLY MAKING NOISE WHEN I GO THROUGH STANDING WATER. ALSO,...
