While driving, your Caravan suddenly lost engine power and the front end swayed side to side, making the vehicle hard to steer. A dealer found that the alternator had frozen, the serpentine belt was missing, and the tensioner was damaged — they replaced these parts, but the problem happened again. An independent mechanic then replaced the alternator, and the issue was resolved. Later, your check engine light came on, but the problem wasn't diagnosed or repaired. Fixing this will likely involve replacing the alternator, serpentine belt, and belt tensioner.
