The engine in my chrysler town & country minivan, 3,6l engine, developed a serious "miss" causing power loss and violent vibration when trying to accelerate. It has been determined to be a missfire in cylinder #2. By testing, it is determined to be a faulty designed left cylinder head. Chrysler has extended the warranty for this problem on all 2011 to 2013 vehicles with the 3.6l engine, but not my 2014 (yet). Help, please.

While my wife and children were making a left-hand turn in the far left lane the van completely went dead. They lost all power to the engine, lost all power steering, lost all ability to accelerate, and lost all ability to break. The car traveled across both lanes and luckily into a shopping center turn lane, where they applied the emergency brake to come to a stop. Landscapers saw what happened and were able to push the car into the parking lot. The dashboard stayed lit and the AC fan continued to blow. It's almost as if the battery was still on, but they had no mechanical functions. We had the van taken to tequesta tire co where they did a full inspection. After a full inspection, they determined the problem to be a possible "fluke". After additional research online, this appears to be a wider issue with other t&c owners. Other owners say they have not found the cause of the issue and spend a significant amount of money with no resolution or cause.
