Hello ,My van is well loved and no matter where Ive been van lovers tell me how nice my van looks ( Burgundy ) Love my van , but after going through months of mechanics, both dealer and expert local mechanic scratching their heads I dont know if its time to part ways. 100,000 miles and the dash abs lights have been on for sometime. At first off and on and at the dealer, who had it gone over each time and could find noyhing. One gut even kept it and drove it home. Nothing .Then this year after a couple of years of this, it stayed on all the time. dealer kept it a week. said over 6 grand; replace the rear axel as the module was replaced. Took it to my local guy. He had it over 2 weeks too. Cant see inside the whole to see the ?teeth? and doesnt know what it might cost if he could figure it out since no parts to be had? He said well it seems fine I'd drive it.Not what the dealer said. In looking at used vans or leased the numbers are staggering, since parts and vehicles are hard to come by. One gut sold his van for a lot of money because of that. A used van with alot of miles sold new at 32,000+ was recently sold online I saw it sell for almost 50,000 and it was several years old.They say this is the highest mark up of all autos in history. Still I dont know what to do about mine. I probably could sell it for more than its worth, I do love it, but the mechanic even said your problem may not even be fixed if you replace the rear right axel.Has anyone had this issue? Is it common? I thought Id get at least another 100,000 miles if not 50,000. I dont know about ford or ram but I remember they werent as comfortable. I used to have a Savana, maybe thats the way to go.
