| Description of the problem | I've been having electrical problems since i got the van at some point while i'm driving all the gages would start flashing acting like it was trying to die some cases it did some cases it did not but when i stopped the dashboard had lost all power to it no ignition whatsoever i still had working radio headlights and everything else whenever i would park the car it could take up to an hour or more to get in the vehicle because it would not respond to the key fobs you would be sitting down minding your own business and then all the sudden it would work left me stranded trying to get to work my child to school and then last night while i was driving down the highway i started hearing a noise and then all a sudden the transmission started slipping revving up to 6000 rpm while i'm crossing over a bridge on a major highway barely was able to get across the bridge leaving me stranded in an unsafe part of town i ran a code scanner on the vehicle it shows code u0141 that was stored and p083b which is the transmission fluid pump and it never turn on a check engine light until i was less than a mile from the dealer after i had to drive to the dealer because the roadside assistance number i had i could not contact them. I do know that some of the vehicles were under recall i'm not sure if this one was and it was fixed or not but is not showing an active recall but it is not safe the images i shared i was actually driving forward and as you can see the lights came on and at 1 point it actually showed me as being in reverse it beeps and goes crazy |
