THE POWER LOCKS ON THE VEHICLE STOPPED OPERATING. WE WERE ON A SHOPPING TRIP OUT OF TOWN. STOPPED IN AUTO SERVICE CENTER, NOT DODGE, AND THEY RESET THE CODES. THE LOCKS WORKED FOR ABOUT A MONTH AND THEN STOPPED AGAIN. HAPPENED TO BE BACK IN THE SAME TOWN AND STOPPED AT THE SAME AUTO REPAIR SHOP AND THEY RESET THE CODES AGAIN. NOW LESS THAN A MONTH, THE LOCKS HAVE STOPPED WORKING AGAIN. IT IS A PAIN, AS WE TRANSPORT OUR GRANDCHILDREN ALL THE TIME AND SOME ARE NOT OLD ENOUGH TO LOCK AND UNLOCK THE DOORS MANUALLY. *TR
2005
LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES
2005 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN AUTOMATIC DOOR LOCK/UNLOCK WILL JUST STOP WORKING. I HAVE BEEN TO DEALER TWICE AND THEY HAVE CHARGED ME $49.95 FOR "REPAIR". THE LATEST EPISODE HAPPENED APX. 6 MONTHS AFTER LAST "REPAIR". I WENT ONLINE TO CARCOMPLAINTS.COM AND FOUND A HOST OF OTHER OWNERS WITH SAME REPEATED PROBLEM. I THEN REMOVED FUSE AND PUT IT BACK IN AND IT HAS TEMPORARILY FIXED THE PROBLEM. I HAVE COMPLAINED TO THE DEALER, BUT THEY ARE "UNAWARE OF ANYONE ELSE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM". THEY WILL BE GLAD TO LOOK INTO WHAT MIGHT BE CAUSING MY PROBLEM FOR A MINIMUM CHARGE OF $50. OF COURSE "THERE MAY BE ADDITIONAL CHARGES FOR PARTS AND LABOR." I HAVE ALREADY PAID ALMOST $100 FOR DEALER TO REMOVE AND REPLACE THE SAME FUSE PLUS ON ONE OF MY VISITS THEY GAVE ME AN ESTIMATE OF OVER $3,000 IN OTHER REPAIRS THEY JUST HAPPENED TO FIND. AFTER TAKING MY CAR TO 2 OTHER REPAIR SHOPS FOR ESTIMATES, I WAS INFORMED THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG AND SAW NO SIGNS OF "PROBLEM" DEALER SUPPOSEDLY DIAGNOSED. IT WAS AN ATTEMPT TO RIP OFF A CONSUMER. *TR
