AS WITH OTHER 2011 TOWN AND COUNTRY OWNERS, BLIND SPOT DETECTION SYSTEM WENT BAD. SYSTEM IS LATCHED IN ERROR MODE. SYSTEM HAS TO BE DISABLED TO PREVENT BLIND SPOT INDICATOR LIGHTS ON BOTH MIRRORS TO BE CONSTANTLY ON. THIS SEEMS TO BE A SAFETY ISSUE IN THAT WHEN THE LIGHTS ARE ON, DRIVER CAN BE DISTRACTED. VEHICLE ONLY HAS 50,000 MILES. *TR

THIS ELECTRICAL PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED 10 TIMES SINCE I BOUGHT THE USED VEHICLE IN 8/2014. IT HAS HAPPENED AT STOPLIGHTS AND WHILE I'VE BEEN DRIVING. ALL THE LIGHTS ON THE DASH GO OUT, THEY ALL COME BACK ON LIKE YOU ARE JUST STARTING THE VAN AND THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS GO OFF AS WELL. IT HAS HAPPENED WHEN I'VE BEEN IN PARK, MAKING A LEFT HAND TURN INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC, DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD (45 MPH) AND WAITING AT A STOPLIGHT. MOST RECENTLY ON 2/6/15 IT DID IT 2 TIMES WHILE I SAT AT THE SAME STOPLIGHT. I HAVE NOTHING ADDITIONAL HANGING FROM THE KEY FOB AND EVEN TRIED THE 2ND KEY FOB I HAVE AND THE SAME PROBLEM OCCURS. *JS
