Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: There is a technical service bulletin out on this issue(#18-31-90, nhtsa item # sb022436). it reads as follows: start-stall and/or decel dieout during low speed maneuvers-repair involves replacement of origingal engine controller(smec) with revised unit-all 1989/90 dodge caravans. our van did this on several occasions before it finnally died on the highway. it was a lucky thing that we were only going about 30 mph at the time and had a place to pull over. when we took it in for a diagnostic they told us the engine controller had failed and it would be $400 to replace it, money we didn't have. so our van just sits there waiting to be fixed and we don't have a car except for a 3-person truck(there are 5 in our family). |
