| Description of the problem | Our sedona van intermittently looses all power. When this happens the rpm's drop to 1000rpm and nothing happens when you push down the accelerator pedal. This happened 3 times today. The first was upon initial start up. The check engine light and esc off light came on. We turned off the car and when we restarted the check engine light stayed on, but the car had power. We drove it the dealership and they said there were 3 codes all indicating low engine voltage. They cleared the codes and said they found nothing wrong and it should not happen again. Latter in the day it happened two more times. Both time while it was being driven. Once one the highway at 65 mph and once in town at about 40mph. Each time we coasted to a stop an turned the car off and back on to get it working again. I will be taking it back to the dealer tomorrow. |
