What owners wrote
Tl* the contact owns a 2013 chrysler town and country. While driving approximately 15 MPH downhill, the vehicle started smoking and slid on a patch of black ice. The vehicle crashed into a phone pole. The contact stated that the driver and the passengers exited the vehicle before the vehicle exploded. The fire was extinguished by the fire department. The driver and the front seat passenger were injured and required medical attention. A police report was filed.
I'm not sure what exactly happened, the vehicle is pending investigation. I attempted to stop the vehicle, pressing the brakes down as hard as possible, and the vehicle wouldn't stop. The other vehicle was hit from behind at a light I was probably going around 40 MPH. Also, when we first bought the vehicle it had a habit of turning off while driving. Finally got that fixed. It turned out to be the master power cylinder or something like that.
