Camshaft Position Sensor Problems of Chrysler Town & Country

While driving on the interstate when I lifted my foot off of the gas pedal it started to jerk on me, the check engine light stays on and the abs light will stay on, it also stalls at randum anytime while driving, every 2 to 3 years I have to have the brakes and the rotors redone, I had the camshaft sensor replaced and was told that they found metal fragments on the sensor I even saw it and was told that that usually tells them that this is a timing problem and could be the problem for stalling and if that doesn't work then it will be the engine, the timing problem will cost around $2000 along with the cost of the engine if its not the timing,then there is a evaporator core problem that is costly, there is a manifold gasket leak also another $1000,I've always done the service repairs but this is all to costly hate to dump it but now I'm thinking of a different vehicle and not another town n country, will never buy again.

On multiple occasions over the last almost 3 years we've had issues with our vehicle dying when stopped or parked. It began in December 2014. We purchased the vehicle in August 2014. While driving to florida from michigan our check engine light came on. Then it turned off so we figured that the bulb was loose or something and we'd get it checked when we got back from vacation. On the way back the same thing happened with the check engine light coming on, going off but then it came back on and didn't turn off. Then the vehicle starts dying when we're stopped or parked. We're obviously concerned! I had to get an oil change after driving that far anyway so I brought it in. The said that the code was for a misfiring piston and I needed to take it into the shop right away. So I immediately drive it over to the dealership shop. They have it for a few days and tell me that nothing is wrong, the vehicle just needs a tune up and new wires, even though it doesn't even have 90k miles on it. They were going to charge us $700. We had my husband's cousin do it instead because he is a mechanic and doesn't charge us for labor. The problem doesn't go away. They tell us the cam shaft sensor is bad. We replace it. Doesn't fix it. They tell us the crank sensor is bad. We replace it. And on and on our goes with us replacing things and the dealership being unable to recreate the issue. For the years we've been dealing with that and a vehicle that cannot smoothly accelerate. It is impossible to quickly get up to speed and merge onto the highest because the vehicle bucks and shakes if you try to accelerate quickly to get up to speed. Then the check engine light flashes, traction control light comes on and a bell starts to ding until we pull over, shut off the vehicle and restart it. Nobody can tell us what is wrong and when the codes are scanned it doesn't match any code that Chrysler has.
