If the van is really low on gas and I fill it up completely, when I leave the station, by the first or second time I stop or really slow down the van will die. It must be filled completely though. I have been a couple places to get it checked out but can't find a problem. I try and make it die on me now before leaving the parking lot.

My 2005 chrysler minivan with 3.3l engine has a mil on due to faulty egr system. However, it is not covered by warranty. Shouldn't it be? It is an emission part.

2005 dodge caravan. I had an engine light come on and heard a clicking noise in the engine. I had it checked by a non-dodge dealer and he researched and was told that this engine has had problems with cracked flywheels causing shifting problems. I thought it unusual that a main part such as a fly wheel would crack. I took it to classic dodge in denton, tx and was told that the flywheel is cracked and needs to be replaced at a cost of $1080.00 have any other reports of this type been sent?
