| Description of the problem | Approx. 3 weeks ago my 2014 dodge caravan began to have acceleration issues. When getting on the freeway it lost the ability to accelrate and i drove 15-25 mph on the interstae for about 3 miles before it finally reached 30 mph and then began to function normally. The accelration problem occured several times prompting me to schediule a maintinance appt. Then on 7/23/15 my 2014 doge grand caravan started having issues starting; when i would turn the key it would sputter before catching and cranking. That evening i turned it off and upon returning it would not crank at all. When i would turn the key it just clicked and i could smell what seemed to be burning wires. It was towed to the dodge dealership and i am awaiting a update on the actual diagnostic's. |
