What owners wrote
After having trouble using the key to start the vehicle for a couple days my car just turned off while traveling at 70 miles per hour. Definitely an electrical problem. The car just shut off as if I turned it off with the key.[no dash lights or radio] I was able to coast and move the shift lever to the neutral position and restart the car and proceed. This is a dangerous problem. The dealer could not help me because nothing was stored in the computer about the incident. Really?
On my 2012 grand caravan about two months ago started an issue of intermittent starting or having to depress the accelerator to gt the vehicle to start. Then about a week ago the van completely stop starting and would just turn over unless it was jump started. I have not had the vehicle into a dealer but with reading several online forums on this issue and used a text light to verify power to the m25 20a fuse.
