ENGINE
My vehicle just started this week to rough idle when braked at a red light. And when picking up speed in the city or highway it kicks back(rough idle/shaking) alot and the check engine light will flash and then dissappear. Nothing is getting picked up when checking for codes. But I believe it has to do with that safety recall: Chrysler Town & Country Engine Recall: 11V487000 Engine May Suffer Internal Damage and Stop Running I did get my oil change at the dealership I purchased but nothing came up to them about it as well(since they do inspection). This is my only transportation so I need this to get taken care of as I have 2 kids and appointments. Thank you. Consumer resolved the issue by changing the ignition coils.

SUSPENSION, SERVICE BRAKES, ENGINE
For weeks now ive been noticing a weird grinding or dry rubbing sound underneath the front end of my chrysler. Checked it out a few times, as though i am not a mechanic i can identify the basics of something not right. However, after my husband and his brother both looking it over on seperate occasions, they have noted a leak under the carriage of the car. Often here recently, the guage senses an over heating of some sort. Since this notice, we have replaced the oil cooler twice in a year; as well as flushed the hoses associated with the coolant reservoir. Fixed temporary but has now already started getting too hot. Which simply tells me that its something further internal thats wrong. I was informed of an engine recall: L33 of my chrysler model. However havent seen one on this website. When driving yesterday, i noticed a light on my cluster that indicated the traction has failed. When i brake, all u hear or feel is a vibration under your feet, up front. I replaced my brake pads all 4, within the past 4 months and theyre now rusted over and u notice a brake fluid leak on the front right side. After a light, the grinding noise, the vibration and the overheating; i am positive that this will eventually cause a car stall or worse a fatal accident. My brakes could eventually fail while driving in traffic, causing a crash. Or my car could just all out stalland the cluster can trip and i could be in harms way if at the time it does this i could be goin 70 on the interstate or in a turninglane in town and without proper fix; it could easily cause a fatal accident and i could be killed or worse my children!

THE CAR WON'T STOP OVERHEATING, WE HAVE REPLACED THERMOSTATS AND PUMPS THINKING THERE WAS A LEAK BUT THAT NEVER STOPPED THE PROBLEM. 20 SECONDS AFTER STARTING THE CAR THE ENGINE IS ALREADY AT THE HALFWAY MARK FOR HOW HOTT IT IS, AND EVEN GOIGN 30 MILES AN HOUR GET ALL THE WAY TO THE TOP AND STARTS OVERHEATING. ON MY WAY TO WORK I ALMOST CRASHED CAUSE IT SHOWED NO INDICATORS AT AL!!! JUST STARTING BELLOWING SMOKE. SO I PULLED OVER AND TURNED IT OFF AND DIDNT MOVE IT.
