1 Gas Recirculation Valve (egr Valve) problem

Failure Date: 09/05/2015

I have a Dodge ricon activan wheelchair van. It is a 2000 model. I purchased it with only 29000 miles. After driving the van for 60 miles it will start stalling, looses power and die. This has happened to me 3 times. The first time it happened I had my son with me (he has spastic quad cerebral palsy) we broke down next to a Dodge dealership. Getting my son home was a nightmare. The Dodge dealership worked on the van. Yet,the problem is still there. After 60 miles it stalls and dies. On Saturday I was broken down with my child on the interstate. It was 92 degrees out side, how horrific. I can see if the van had 100,000 miles to have issues. I was fortunate to get the van pulled to the side of the road, if not we would have been hit and killed. This is a issue that needs recalled. This is a safety issue.
