AS I WAS BACKING OUT OF A PARKING SPACE, I LOST POWER STEERING AND POWER BRAKES. STEERING WAS VERY STIFF AND BRAKES WERE HARD. IT WAS SIMILAR TO WHEN THE CAR STALLS, BUT THE CAR WAS STILL RUNNING. I PUT THE CAR IN DRIVE AND ATTEMPTED TO PULL FORWARD. STILL NO POWER STEERING OR POWER BRAKES. I PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND NO CHANGE. I TURNED OFF THE VEHICLE, WAITED A MINUTE OR TWO AND THEN RESTARTED IT. CAR WAS FINE THEN. WHEN THIS OCCURRED, NO INDICATORS LIT ON THE DASH. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER AND THEY WERE UNABLE TO REPLICATE THE PROBLEM OR DETERMINE ANY CAUSE OF THE PROBLEM. THEY DID NOT TEST DRIVE THE CAR, AS IT STILL HAD THE SAME MILEAGE AS WHEN I DROPPED IT OFF. *TR

How to use these: a complaint is one owner’s report, filed voluntarily and published unverified. Patterns matter more than any single story. If several owners describe the same failure at similar mileage, put that system at the top of your pre-purchase inspection list. Back to the full 2013 Chrysler Town And Country verdict →
