Good morning/afternoon,
Hi. My family and I have a Dodge Caravan with approx. 117,000 miles. About two months ago, the van would stall when coming to a stop sign. It would stall also at red lights. Then the problem went away. But the problem came back a couple of days ago. It seems the problem only occurs at very slow speeds. The engine would die and the steering wheel would lock. But the heater is still blowing when this happens. The engine would start back up, but sometimes it would struggle to get started. In addition, since the stalls would happen at red lights, I would put the van on neutral and that seems to prevent the engine from stalling. I haven't driven the van much b/c one time it stalled when I was making a right turn and it was scary. Are there any thoughts to this problem? Thank you so much in advance!
Sincerely,
Ody
