Grand Caravan 6-cyl

  • 49,000 miles
Bought the van in December of 2019. A few months ago I noticed that the van wasn't accelerating/shifting when going up hills. It delayed started one night and I had to shift if off and restart it. My front A/C stopped working and kicks on randomly. The doors don't automatically lock until a few minutes after being put into drive. Back right door doesn't lock. Recently took it to my mechanic and was informed that there is burnt wiring and possible plugged cad. Converter.

Grand Caravan

  • 25,000 miles
The driver-side rear sliding door has locked and will not unlock manually, with door unlock button, or by key fob. When trying to unlock manually the mechanism rubber bands back to the lock position as if the locking mechanism in the door is stuck. This presents a safety hazard in case of emergencies. This luckily happened as I was going to put my son in the vehicle before leaving my home.

The passenger rear sliding door has locked and will not open manually, with button, remote and overhead button. This presents a safety hazard incase of emergencies. Upon further research, it seems this is a common problem with Dodge Grand Caravan and have cost customers more than $1,000 for repairs. This should be recommended for a recall.
