While driving down the interstate, the vehicle shut off completely without warning. I had to put it in park and quickly turn it back on. It drove for a few hundred miles and did it again. Then, at miles 9769 and 9980 it did it again. 4 times in less than 10,000 miles on the vehicle. No engine warnings, nothing. Just shuts off at all different speeds, without warning.

The transaxle downshifts whenever the accelerator pedal is released and the vehicle gains speed. This happens anytime, not when the driver wants to slow down. In the snow this has caused me to loose traction (unwanted engine breaking). There is no way to turn this off. I've spoken with other ProMaster owners and they all report the same issue. The transaxle should only offer engine breaking if the driver is depressing the brake pedal. Not whenever the vehicle accelerates.

There is no sensor in this pivot point, so when you release the parking brake, it seems like it is off, but it is not. No indication no warning..

Vehicle Electronic throttle control had a malfunction and system went into limp mode on a highway at highway speeds of 70mph. The engine destroyed itself instead of limping. Lost power and almost got hit by a semi truck and other vehicles when this happened. Ended up getting a used engine due to current remanufacture costs etc. Total cost out of pocket because the dealership lied about my warranty and what was covered and for how long was around $7,000 parts lanor etc. Limp mode is dangerous and the way it happened on a highway could have gotte…

As of approximately around the 15th of April 2023, we realized suddenly that our lithium battery in our 2019 Winnebago Travato was not being replaced with charging from our Volta alternator from driving or from our solar as it has always done. The KISAE DC to DC charger and the Volta system show an error message that they were/are ‘overheated’. Testing of the DC to DC charger shows that it’s receiving far over the correct voltage. Upon diagnostics at a RV dealership they found the alternator is being overcharged. The alternator must be replaced…

My vehicle is subject to open safety Recall 67C involving the cooling fan module and related fuse protection in the engine compartment. The recall has been open since October 2025. The manufacturer and dealer have confirmed that the remedy/parts are still not available and that there is no ETA for repair. At this time, I have not experienced an obvious operating failure with the vehicle itself. However, the open safety recall remains unresolved, and because no remedy exists yet, the recall cannot be completed. This is my sole work vehicle, a…

During some cases of downhill driving, the Brake system warning light will come on. I believe this issue is tied to a combination of longer and steeper downhill drives when the angle indicated in road side sinage is no less than 6%. Minimal braking ton control the decent is used. Each time this occurs, I take the nearest off ramp to pull over to a stop and turn off the engine. My visual and hand-test of each wheel/tire temperature finds in my opinion, the temps to be quite nominal. On the last trip, a digital laser thermometer also indicate…

My power steering locked up and almost caused an accident. The dealer said they are having trouble with this component (corrosion in plug). I have a fleet of trucks, and I just had the same issue with a 2023 model which I also almost lost control of the vehicle. This is a defect or poor design that needs to be recalled before someone get seriously hurt.
