My car ran fine and had no problems. One foggy morning however, I was driving and stopped at a stop light. While pressing the brake, the engine suddenly revved up. The car lurched me toward the stop light. I took it to the dealer, but he didn't find any problem. This happened again one rainy day. The engine started revving. The car lurched me toward while I pressed the brake. And now its been doing it for a few month.

While traveling down hill in my neighborhood at approximately 15-20mph my 2005 chrysler town and country shut down. I did not notice if any check engine lights came in because I was just focused on not hitting anything or dying. However I did notice that the gas hand said it was on e, the speedometer said 0, and the temperature gage was at the coolest setting. The breaks stoped working completely and the steering wheel was very hard to turn. If it had not been for the speed bumps in my are hood I would have wrecked for sure. Thankfully I didn't and inwas able to slowy make the turn (with a lot of effort) I needed to at the end of the hill. The headlights and the radio did work the entire time. Once I was able to stop the van completely I turned the key to the off position and restated it. It did start on the 1st try and I was able to make it home (less then 1 mile away). I am now terrified to drive it because no one can figure out what is wrong with it. The van has been kept in good shape, oil changes, scheduled maintenance, etc. And it's never been in an accident.

Luckily I was in my driveway when my brake pedal went straight to the floor. I'm a mechanic and an engineer. I immediately searched for a puddle of brake fluid on the driveway. Finding it between the rear wheels on the ground I raised the rear end up to access the suspect area. Shocked, I saw a hydraulic brake manifold with 4 brake lines coming out of it and one was clearly total rust. All others were in completely new condition. Clearly the rusted one leading to the left rear brake cylinder was processed differently than the others. Three perfect condition, one completely rusted????? Something needs to be recalled, now!!!! I changed the brake line and all is well. If a recall is issued I want my money and time reimbursed, please.
