2015 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN Complaints

SLIDING DOOR LOCK ACTUATOR, BUZZING SOUND WHEN UNLOCK ALL DOORS. CAN'T MOVE THE LOCK BY HAND IT GETS STUCK

LOST AND FOUND ITEMS THE DODGE GRAND CARAVAN HIDE ON IMPORTANT PERSONAL ITEMS. FOR EXAMPLE, CREDIT OR DEBIT CARDS. THIS IS IN THE ARMREST CONSOLE. THIS CAUSES ARGUMENTS BETWEEN THE DRIVER AND THE PASSENGERS. THIS CAN LEAD TO AN ACCIDENT AS IT CAUSES SUSPICION OF ATTEMPTED ILLEGAL APPROPRIATION. NOBODY TOUCHED THE CARD BUT THE DESIGN OF THE TRUCK YES. IT IS NOT OBVIOUS TO DECIPHER THE ENIGMA. RECALL, PLEASE. REFERENCE: HTTPS://WWW.YOUTUBE.COM/WATCH?V=4ZJ2BDOVFLO IMAGINE YOU ARE WITH A NEW FRIEND AND YOUR CREDIT CARD DISAPPEAR.!! IN MOTION JUST BEFORE YOUR TURN IN A ATH CAR LINE. I SOLD IT. MAYBE A LITTLE STICKER CAN SOLVE THIS.

THE PASSENGER SEAT HEADREST DEPLOYED WHILE THE CAR WAS SITTING IN MY DRIVEWAY SOMETIME BETWEEN SUNDAY EVENING (5/26) AND TUESDAY AFTERNOON (5/28). THE CAR HAD NOT BEEN INVOLVED IN ANY ACCIDENTS PRIOR TO OR DURING THIS TIME FRAME. MY HUSBAND AND I HAD DRIVEN OUR 2015 DODGE CARAVAN ON SUNDAY. I WAS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. I AM 8 MONTHS PREGNANT. ON MONDAY, WE DID NOT DRIVE THE VAN. ON TUESDAY AROUND 12 NOON, WITH THE CAR STILL IN THE DRIVEWAY, I NOTICED THAT THE PASSENGER SIDE HEADREST HAD BASICALLY EXPLODED. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I HAD BOUGHT THE VAN (A CHEVY DEALERSHIP THAT HAD RECEIVED IT IN A TRADE-IN). THEY HAD NEVER HEARD OF SUCH A THING AND TOLD ME TO BRING IN THE VAN IMMEDIATELY. THAT AFTERNOON, I (RELUCTANTLY) DROVE THE VAN THE 25 MILES TO THE DEALERSHIP, LEANING FORWARD AS FAR AS I COULD IN THE DRIVER'S SEAT IN CASE IT WERE TO DEPLOY. THE DEALERSHIP CALLED ME TODAY, WEDNESDAY 5/29, TO INFORM ME THAT CHRYSLER REFUSES TO ACCEPT ANY RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE DEFECT, AND WOULD CHARGE NEARLY $900 TO COVER THE NEW HEADREST. CHEVY GENEROUSLY OFFERED TO COVER HALF THE COST SINCE I AM A REPEAT CUSTOMER, AND THEY SAW THIS AS A SEVERE SAFETY ISSUE. I DECLINED, NOT WANTING TO SPEND OVER $400 TO REPLACE A DEFECTIVE PART WITH ANOTHER PART, ESPECIALLY SINCE THIS WOULD NOT EASE MY WORRIES ABOUT THE SAFETY OF THE DRIVER'S SIDE. I PLAN TO ZIP TIE THE HEADRESTS WITH MULTIPLE ZIP TIES. THERE'S NO OTHER SOLUTION AT THIS TIME. EVEN IF I WERE TO PAY TO REPLACE THE BROKEN PASSENGER HEADREST, THERE IS NO GUARANTEE AT THIS POINT THAT EITHER HEADREST IS SAFE AND WILL FUNCTION AS INTENDED. I WOULD NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING WITH ONE OF THESE HEADRESTS EVER AGAIN. I WOULD TRADE IN THE VEHICLE, BUT I AM WORRIED THIS WILL CAUSE SIGNIFICANT FINANCIAL HARM SINCE I ONLY JUST ACQUIRED THE VEHICLE IN OCTOBER 2018. ALSO, I WILL BE HAVING A BABY IN 1 MONTH AND HAVE NO MONEY TO SPARE.

MY DAUGHTER ENTERED THE VAN THROUGH THE FRONT SEAT AND CRAWLED THROUGH THE CENTER BACK TO HER SEAT BEHIND THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. AS SOON AS SHE WAS GETTING INTO HER CAR SEAT THE FRONT PASSENGER HEADREST DEPLOYED. WE WERE PARKED AND IN AN UNSTARTED VEHICLE IN MY DRIVEWAY- NO COLLISION INVOLVED. THANK GOD IT DEPLOYED JUST SECONDS AFTER MY DAUGHTER WAS CLEAR OF IT. THERE WAS NO CONTACT BEING MADE WITH IT. MY HUSBAND TRIED TO REASSEMBLE IT BUT THERE'S A PLASTIC BRACKET THAT IS BROKEN. NOW AFTER LOOKING INTO IT, I SEE THERE IS A LAWSUIT PENDING OVER THIS AND AROUND 100 COMPLAINTS. I AM NERVOUS ABOUT THE DRIVER'S SIDE ONE DEPLOYING WHILE DRIVING. THIS IS AN ISSUE!!!

LEFT SLIDING DOOR IS STUCK. IT WONT UNLOCK FROM INSIDE OR OUTSIDE TRYED TO DO IT MANUALLY AND STI DOES NOT WORK. HAVE TRYED EVERYTHING. THIS IS A VERY CONCERNING ISSUE CAUSE IN CASE OF ACCIDENT OR FIRE WE WILL BE STUCK INSIDE VAN AND WONT BE ABLE TO GET OUT. I HAVE READ ONLINE AND HAVE FOUND THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. DEALER WANTS TO CHARGE $1000 FOR A PROBLEM THAT IS A SAFETY AND DANGEROUS ISSUE AND IT SHOULD. E RECALLED CAUSE IS HAPPENING TO EVERYBODY. HOW CAN I GET HELP ??

WHEN AC IS TURNED ON THE PASSENGER SIDE VENTS BLOW OUT HOT AIR WHILE THE DRIVER SIDE VENTS BLOW OUT COLD AIR. THIS CAR IS ONLY FOUR YEARS OLD AND I DO NOT WANT TO SEND IT TO THE DODGE DEALERSHIP WHERE I AM GUARANTEED TO SPEND WAY TOO MUCH MONEY. THIS SEEMS TO BE A MAJOR PROBLEM WITH DODGE AND CHRYSLER CARAVANS WHEN YOU GOOGLE THE ISSUE..

HAD A RECALL FIXED ON MY VAN FOR THE REAR AC/HEATER FAN...THIS FIX DID NOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM AND THE FRONT MAKES A HORRIBLE NOISE IF TURNED ON. HIGH PITCHED WHITE NOISE IRRITATING SOUND AND THE HIGHER YOU TURN UP THE FAN THE LOUDER IT BECOMES!

MY DRIVERS SIDE ELECTRONICA DOOR FOR THE MIDDLE SEAT IS STUCK IN A LOCKED POSITION AND WILL NOT OPEN WITH EITHER THE REMOTE CONTROL OR BY HAND. THIS IS VERY CONCERNING BECAUSE OF SAFETY ISSUES WHEN I HAVE PASSENGERS IN THE MIDDLE SEAT. WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IN CASE OF AN EMERGENCY? I HAVE DONE MY RESEARCH AND HAVE FOUND THAT THIS IS A VERY COMMON SAFETY ISSUE IN MULTIPLE YEARS OF DODGE GRAND CARAVAN'S. I AM URGING THIS BOARD TO RECALL DODGE GRAND CARAVAN'S WITH SLIDING DOOR ISSUES. PLEASE HELP!!!

ON 9-22-2018. MY 2015 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN DRIVERS REAR SLIDING DOOR CLOSED LIKE NORMAL. THEN WHEN I TRYED UNLOCKING AND OPENING THE DOOR WOULD DO ANYTHING THE LOCK MECHANISM ON IT DOESN'T DO ANYTHING TRYED MANUALLY UNLOCKING IT WOULDN'T UNLOCK. THE DOOR JUST WILL NOT OPEN...IT WAS STATIONARY IN PARK.

DRIVERS SIDE AIR VENTS BLOW COLD AIR, PASSENGERS SIDE BLOWS OUT VERY HOT AIR, EVERYTHING IN THE GLOVE BOXES GET VERY HOT. 2ND TIME THIS HAS OCCURRED. LAST TIME I TURNED THE TEMP CONTROL KNOBS VERY QUICKLY BOTH TIMES AND IT CORRECTED ITSELF, THIS TIME NOT. OTHER PEOPLE HAVE LOGGED THIS SAME COMPLAINT
