Description of the problem | While driving on a 50mph 4 lane road with my two children 3 & 5, i decelerated to make a left hand turn and within 3 seconds the car sputtered to a halt with all power cutting off. In a panic, i tried to get the car started again but it did not respond to the ignition. I got out of the car to get my kids out of the back seat and bring them to safety. I manually opened the rear driver side door and after doing so, the power came back on to the car. I quickly got back in and drove home without incident. We have since searched the vin for recalls to find that for whatever reason, my vin did not qualify for the recall involved in 2017 chrysler pacificas with this same exact problem occurring. I brought the car in for a diagnostic, and of course they could find nothing wrong nor "reproduce the problem", or give us any reassurance that this wouldn't happen again. |
