For the pass year been having problems with the traction, bas, brake and esp lights coming on and sometimes losing temporarily power. Sometimes it dies and 90% of time have to reset the clock. If it doesn't die and I pull over and kill it and crank it back and the dash lights go off but most of time have to reset clock. Sometimes driving down highway, and in parking lots and sometimes backing out of my carport..my foot usually on brake but a few times it wasnt.this is the short version on my 2010 dodge grand caravan that has 180,000 miles

When driving down the road it will without warning lose power and shut off. It has even had a problem where all the warning lights flash and the windshield wipers start, while the control is off.

The van will shut off at random times while driving at slower speeds, especially when you're sitting and about to turn. At random times when you put in reverse, van shuts off. Takes 8-10 times to get it to stay cranked. Warning lights kept blinking about 4 years ago on long trip, so stopped in paducah, ky and dodge dealership changed crank sensor. Was ok for about 200 miles on way home, but still shuts off. With mechanic as we speak and changed egr valve and didn't work, still shuts off. Mechanic still has it and trying other things. Dodge knows it's a problem, so why won't they fix it. It's so dangerous to drive, so I'm the only one in the family who drives it. Won't shut off at high speeds on hwy, but on a long trip, last summer, it did lose power and went from 70 MPH to about 40 MPH...dangerous!!

Driving on highway at 70mph. The car turned off and the "traction control" idiot light turned on. I managed to struggle to get it over to the side of the highway (I-294 in chicago is not easy!) and put the car in park. With the car in park, I was able to restart the car and continue on our trip. This is the 3rd time this has happened since november 2019.

I went to start my van and it wouldn't start. The dash said "bad key". Apparently the key unprogrammed some how out of nowhere. I didn't do any5to my key and it just quit working.
