Driver side sliding door will not open. Is locked and can not use this door to enter or exit the van. We bought this 2018 Dodge Grand Caravan about 2 years ago only had this car for 2 years doors been stuck for 1 year I would say. It just stopped working one day!!! We have 2 disabled children and if something happens our children can not get out. There have been alot of complaints on this!! Why hasn-??t anything been done??. My one child is not able to understand if he needs to get out another way. My other child climbs in from the back hatch back. or over the front seat to the back! Come on enough fix my door. I should not have to put out thousands of dollars to fix something that has been a known problem. Shame on dodge For not fixing a problem where they put lives in danger!!

The drivers side sliding door stopped working in the locked and shut position and is impossibleto open. Because of this we had to climb over our car seat to get our daughter out of the car. This is incredibly unsafe and should not happen.

Driver side rear slider is stuck in the locked position. The auto slider and door locks will not allow is to open from the inside or outside. My concern is that the passengers would not be able to exit in the case of an emergency. This happened without warning.

- Snohomish, WA, USA

Both sliding doors will not open manually or with the key fob. The lock is permanently stuck in place. I was told it was due to a bad actuator. When you google this issue there are 1000-??s of other people that have this same issue. This is a huge safety concern as if I were in an accident all of my rear passengers wouldn-??t be able to get out of the car. Meaning my children would be STUCK. this is so unsafe.

Beginning about the time my regular warranty expired, about 40,000 miles, my rear sliding car door on the drivers side began making a loud buzzing sound when hitting the lock door button. It makes this sound every time the car door is locked. A month or so after it began making that noise, the door became stuck and would not open. It did not matter if the door was unlocked or not the door could not be opened at all. Then all of a sudden out of nowhere, the door became unstuck. A few weeks after that it became stuck again. This makes no sense, as I haven't done anything to warrant this issue. The right side sliding door also will not lock when the lock button is pressed. I have to manually open the door to lock or unlock the back sliding door on the right side. This is so frustrating. This issue is no longer "covered" by the warranty and it is incredibly annoying, not to mention expensive to have fixed. I bought this car new! It would seem to me the door being stuck and not being able to open is a major safety hazard. This should be a recall and customers should not have to pay 1,000$ or more to have this fixed. I cannot afford to have this fixed at this time so I am just having to live with it. I pray that if we are ever in a car accident that my children and I will be able to open the door and exit the vehicle safely and not be trapped inside.

About 2 weeks ago, the power rear driver door stoped working, it is stuck in the lock position and can not be opened by hand from the outside or the inside, by remote or with the button in overhead console the car. This is a safety issue as we need to be able to open it up when a passenger (in this instance our kid) needs to get out. After some research online, I found out that this is a known issue but dodge decided to do just nothing. Safety first...... This needs to be an immediate recall!

- Cape Coral, FL, USA

A few weeks ago, the passenger side slider door became locked and will not unlock with the overhead dome controller nor the key remote. Cannot unlock manually. Now, a couple of days ago, the driver side slider door locked up too! The only access to the back seats is through the rear lift gate!

- Lynn, MA, USA

My driver side rear door will not open or shut at all. I believe the locking mechanism is stuck preventing the door from unlocking and opening. I have a child that rides on this side of the vehicle and if we was to have an accident no one would be able to get that door open to get to child. There was no warning to this happening. I just came out of no where and one day stopped working.

- Morristown, TN, USA

The rear passenger door is stuck in a locked position. It cannot be unlocked manual. The latch is completely stuck. With three kids, it is a safety issue for it not to open. It quit working without any warning and the van has less than 34,000 miles on it. We went in to church on Sunday and locked the doors with the keyless remote. We came out and it wouldn't unlock. I see this is an issue for multiple people. There should be a recall issued.

We were driving our van from yermo, ca to las vegas, nv on 3/25/2021. When we arrived in las vegas, the driver-side rear sliding door became inoperable because the lock was stuck in the engaged position. This occurred without warning; the door was operable in yermo and there were no unusual sounds that would indicate an impending problem. After a little research, I found that this is a common problem with Grand Caravan, and is usually caused by a failure of the electronic lock actuator. It often occurs after about 3 years, or 40K miles. Indeed, our van was at about 42K miles at the time of failure. The thing that troubles me about the electronic lock failure is that it prevents the user from manually unlocking the door. It seems to me like the vehicle has been designed to comply with 49 cfr 571.602 S4.3 for only three years. Then Dodge charges ~$1,100 to replace the failed actuator, meaning that the annualized cost to the driver is $367 per rear door. We have four young kids with ages ranging from 8 years to 5 months. The infant car seat was placed on the passenger side, so our other three children could only really enter and exit the van from the driver side. The failure of the driver-side door meant that we had to remove the entire infant car seat to allow the other kids egress from the van. Having only one operating door is not sustainable for us, nor is spending $733 per year to keep both doors operable.

I was driving up a busy intersection and my 2018 Dodge Caravan stopped randomly in on going and on coming traffic and I couldn't start it. I have had the car for 8 months and I keep up with maintenance. My family was afraid because cars were driving up fast behind us in a narrow two way street.

My power locks will not work.I used the key fob and the manual in the van but they work off and on.then completely lock up and will not lock or unlock.its npt the key fob so something else is happening causing me to be locked out of my vehicle.

- Lumberton, TX, USA

The driver's door will not lock, or unlock, with either the fob or with the button on the door. I need to take the physical key out of the fob and manually unlock the door to get inside. Once inside the van, I need to remember to manually lock the my door, because it will not automatically lock like the rest of the doors. Once I exit the van, I need to push the lock down because the fob will not lock it. It only has 66,000 miles.
