HEAD LIGHTS, RUNNING LIGHTS WILL ONLY WORK ONE AT A TIME. ONE SIDE ON HIGH THE OTHER ON LOW. HAVE READ MANY REPORTS OF THE SAME PROBLEM FOR SEVERAL YEARS OF THIS DODGE CARAVAN. TRIED CHANGING BULBS, DISCONNECTED PLUG AT MODULE WORKED ONE TIME . FIND THIS VERY FRUSTRATING BECAUSE IT IS NOT A NEW PROBLEM WITH CHRYSLER IT HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR SEVERAL YEARS. THIS IS A 02 . *TR

STRUCTURE:BODY:DOOR
I HAVE A 2002 GRAND CARAVAN WITH DUAL SLIDING DOORS. SOMETIMES, THE DOORS DO NOT DETECT AN OBSTRUCTION AND ATTEMPT TO CLOSE ANYWAY. YESTERDAY, MY 3 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER RECEIVED MINOR BRUISING TO HER WAIST AFTER CLIMBING OUT OF THE VAN WHILE THE DOOR WAS IN MOTION. THE DOOR DID NOT RETRACT UNTIL I FORCIBLY PUSHED THE DOOR AFTER SEEING HER IN DISTRESS. IT DID NOT RETRACT AFTER SENSING HER TORSO IN THE PATH. SHE WAS OK BUT RECEIVED A BRUISE ON EACH SIDE OF HER WAIST (DOOR AND VAN BODY CONTACT). I HAD TO USE UNNECESSARY FORCE TO FORCE THE DOOR OPEN AND DOING SO DISENGAGED THE AUTOMATIC CLOSING MECHANISM WHICH REQUIRED A MANUAL CLOSING AFTERWARDS. THIS HAS HAPPENED NUMEROUS TIMES BUT HAS NEVER RESULTED IN AN INJURY UNTIL NOW. THE DEALER SAYS THAT A CERTAIN AMOUNT OF RESISTANCE IS REQUIRED FOR THE AUTOREVERSAL TO ACTIVATE. EVIDENTLY IT REQUIRES MORE FORCE THAN MY CHILD'S BODY. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE. *NLM
