| Description of the problem | While driving the van just cut off in the middle of the road. It managed to roll to the shoulder and started. The van was driven a little further and the same thing happened again. The next day the same thing happened. It was taken to a dealership and they said it was the wrong size tires on the rear caused the abs to come on and stopped the vehicle. They replaced the tires and returned the van. Two days later it did the same thing. Took the van back and they kept it for over a month. They replaced the transmission & returned it. The same problem occurred again and was taken back. The dealership could recreate the problem but didn't know what was wrong with it. Another month or more goes by and they decided that the pump that they replaced was defective. They replaced the pump and returned the van. A couple of weeks go by and the van is cutting off again. It is currently at the dealership again. Each time that this happened the vehicle was being driven on a roadway in traffic. This really could cause an accident. I believe this vehicle is just a lemon and cannot be repaired to the point that anyone feels safe driving it. |
