What owners wrote
The transmission cooling lines are leaking. While traveling daily to work on many occasions, my lights in the dash, my radio and all power up front would go off while driving and just recently while parked. Oil filter housing assembly is leaking. Had to replace the full oil filter housing assembly and int manifold set. Twice, as the vehicle has been in motion, the engine has stopped and the ability to steer is gone. The radio has stayed on. Both instances have happened at 25MPH or less, thankfully!
The oil pump coolant line and housing needs to be replaced - costing about $1k for parts and labor. The van only has 115k miles and has been well-maintained. I heard from both the auto repair shop and the dealer that this is a known issue among many other vans and that the parts are on backorder for 2 months (about 15k needed). It's not just me having this issue but thousands. A recall should be in effect.
