Hi, I have owned the vehicle listed above (Connect model) for two years. The last twelve months it seems to misfire when you first start it up for about thirty seconds to one minute. It seems to be a common thing that other people have had the same problem with this van. Is it possible you can tell me what you think might be the problem?
