problem #4

While driving my Dodge van, it will shut of, no gas to engine. I can cruise to the side of the road most of the time. Had the vehicle worked on, new fuel pump, cleaned the ground as advised my a Dodge service center, had a complete tune up and anything else myself or my mechanic could think of. The vehicle still cuts off when it wants without warning. It will restart after 4-5 minutes.

The power control module and body control modules blew out twice within the first 4000 miles of the trucks life the leaky intake manifold was detected after several complaints of a tapping noise in engine that was worse when accelerating. Still not fixed vehicle still has real bad tapping in engine. Truck died while driving down the road, left me stranded. Diagnosis was that the fuel pump module went out. Electrical problems with the vehicle also shorted out the cassette player. I have also heard strange buzzing noises in the cab while driving. Took back to dealer and they said they could not find anything wrong. Vehicle is still not running properly.
