What owners wrote

Dt: caller has had van for a little over a year and in november 2004 the brakes started making a noise and van would not respond to giving it gas. Caller stated the rpms revved, but the van would not accelerate. The caller said her husband hit the brake and the steering wheel shook. The brake rotors warped and the axle needed to be rebuilt. The transmission shift unit also needed to be replaced. Dealer replaced the rotors and they were rebuilding the axle and replaced transmission shift unit.

Reported at 5,300 miles, November 2004

The car would stall and the steering would go out, which was very dangerous. It happened daily since may of 2016. In order for the car to go from stopped to a starting position, it would take all of my strength to push down on accelerator to get the car to move.

Reported at 106,000 miles, May 2016
