2010 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN Complaints

SIMILAR TO OTHER REPORTS; VEHICLE WILL RANDOMLY LOSE POWER AND/OR STALL. IT HAS HAPPENED AT SLOW SPEEDS, STOPPED AT A LIGHT, AND EVEN ON THE HIGHWAY GOING 70MPH. HAVE TO TAKE KEY OUT OF IGNITION, WAIT A FEW SECONDS AND TURN BACK ON AND CAR STARTS UP. ALSO NOW HAVING ISSUES TO TURN ON. LIGHTS ON DASH WILL BLINK AND DIM; RADIO SHUTS OFF; EBS, ANTI LOCK BRAKE, ENGINE LIGHT ALL BEGIN TO BLINK. IDLE NEEDLES GETS LOW. POWER BRAKES LOSE FUNCTION. WE HAVE OWNED THE CAR SINCE MARCH 2016, CAR HAS 56000 MILES. TAKEN TO DEALER A FEW TIMES WHERE THE PCM WAS CHANGED AND ISSUED NOT RESOLVED. CHANGED FAULTY PULLEY ON BELT SYSTEM AND ISSUE NOT RESOLVED. COMPUTER DOES NOT COME BACK WITH ANY CODES. LOCAL MECHANIC CHECKED FOR STARTER, ALTERNATOR, IGNITION SWITCH ISSUES AND ALL SHOWING GOOD. VEHICLE IS NOT PART OF DODGE RECALL OF OTHER 2010 THAT ARE HAVING EXACT SAME ISSUE.

WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE, THE INTERIOR LIGHTS, RADIO, AIR CONDITIONER AND WINDOWS BECOME INOPERABLE. THE LIGHTS, RADIO, AND AIR TURN OFF, AND THE WINDOWS WILL NOT GO UP OR DOWN. THE HEAD LIGHTS STILL WORK, BUT THE REST DO NOT. THEN THEY COME BACK ON OUT OF NOWHERE. THEN OFF AND ON AND OFF AND ON... WHILE SITTING STILL AND WHILE DRIVING. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES. AND I FEAR IT'S GOING TO START AN ELECTRICAL FIRE WHILE WE ARE IN THE VEHICLE.
