Defect Description:

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

Potential Consequences:

Without any warning or problems leading up to this, the sliding door on my passengers side has become “locked” and cannot be opened. I used my keys, and buttons in the car, the door will not open. I even tried to use force and pull it open, but it has not worked. It is stuck in “lock”. This is a safety hazard because my children have to enter and exit on the drivers side now which is often the side facing the open street. Also makes it harder for me to get my child on that side strapped into his car seat. I have to reach back OR reach through his window to get him secured. I have not taken the car to a dealership for repairs because I don’t want to be charged for fixing a manufacturer defect

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

Potential Consequences:

Electrical: Intermittently, the headlights will dim for a second then return to normal—whether at an idle at a traffic light/stop sign, or at highway speeds. The turn signal will also pause briefly, breaking the normal clicking rhythm. Sliding door: The sliding door (Driver side) just began experiencing problems on 08/10/2023—upon completing the opening cycle, the door would not latch in the open position, accompanied by a clicking sound. When closing the door, it would stop short of latching closed—again accompanied with the clicking sound. It would click 3-4 times, then stop—the door remaining ajar. This happens regardless the mechanism used to operate the procedure: the button on the console above the dash, the button near the manual door opener (on center pillar), the button on the remote, as well as the exterior door handle. The door will open/close latching properly with manual operation.

ENGINE

Potential Consequences:

We've owned this vehicle about 3 years and the check engine light keeps coming on. The code it throws is misfire 2. The mechanic changed the spark plug. That didn't clear the code. They ran a compression test on the cylinder, and it came back as low compression. They stated they've seen several like this and its been the cylinder head. I only have about 85,000 miles on the vehicle and he said I shouldn't be having these issues. The mechanic said they googled and found that this has been a reoccurring problem with the grand caravans. Why isn't Dodge offering an extended warranty for the newer models?
