Vehicle Speed Control Problems of Dodge Sprinter

The esp dash light came on while leaving parking stall, the Sprinter shifted hard down to first and would not shift. I turned the vehicle off and restarted now the vehicle was in high gear and would not shift driving on city street. I drove a short distance 1/2 mi. And turned the vehicle off, let it sit for a minute or so and restarted, the vehicle drove fine for a mile or so then the esp dash light came on again, no issues with shifting this time. The next day while driving on a residential street the esp light did not come on for a 1/4 mile when it did there was no shifting issue. I turned off the vehicle and restarted and the light did not come back on for several miles on city streets and one stop and restart at fuel station.

2010 fleetwood "icon" (2008 Sprinter chassis) 33,612 miles VIN wdxpf445389380901 the Dodge Sprinter RV I purchased (used, 16,500 miles) in February of this year (2013) from a private RV dealer in oregon has a serious (intermittent) electrical problem that Dodge/Chrysler has been unable to repair after 5 or 6 attempts in the past 3 months, both in oregon and California. I drove the RV to alaska starting in may of this year and when I was driving to valdez, ak the engine just cut out and I lost all electrical. I coasted to a stop and the vehicle immediately started, but I had a number of warning lights on my dash. From this point forward I developed issues with my glow-plug light not illuminating and being unable to start my motor. Driving through washington/oregon I continued to look for a dealership that could check my RV out, but all but one in beaverton, oregon couldn't accommodate the size of my RV. Meanwhile I experienced intermittent problems with starting/dying. The dealership in beaverton couldn't locate my problem, but gave me copies of the numerous and strange trouble codes my vehicle was posting when it died/or wouldn't start. The RV is still under warranty and has been in two different dealerships to resolve the issue of dying while driving (serious safety issue which the mechanic at crown Dodge duplicated). The other electrical problems are "no start" (intermittent) and no clearance lights (constant).
