Owner's description
The van has experienced loss of braking twice during our 17,000 miles of ownership. During a braking sequence, the brakes essentially gave out and almost felt like the van lunged forward. Driver instinct was to push the pedal to the floor and after a second or so, the van braking recovered. I believe it to be an issue with the transition between regenerative braking and traditional braking. I have read forum posts with similar experienced, but have not received support of confirmation from Chrysler. I have driven many vehicles over my 22 years and have never experienced a loss of braking this significant.
