2005 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN Complaints

REAR LH SLIDING DOOR ON 2005 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN NO LONGER OPERATING NORMALLY. DOOR STOPS 8" AND MUST BE MANUALLY MOVED THEREAFTER. *TR

2005 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN HAS PROBLEM WITH HEADLIGHTS TURNING ON. IT HAS HAPPENED 2 TIMES THIS WEEK. WHEN I TURN THE SWITCH, THE HEADLIGHTS WILL NOT COME ON. PARKING LIGHTS DO COME ON. BUT AN HOUR LATER WHEN I TURN THE SWITCH, THE HEADLIGHTS COME ON.

2005 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN ALL DOORS LIKE QUIT WORKING. THEY HAVE A BCM SOFTWARE UPDATE THAT FIXES THE PROBLEM. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL NOTIFICATION.

2005 DODGE CARAVAN POWER DOOR LOCKS QUIT WORKING. ONLY 55,000 MILES ON VEHICLE. THERE IS ONLY ONE KEYED ENTRY INTO THE VEHICLE, MAKING THIS A SAFETY THREAT. THIS IS A WELL-KNOWN ISSUE THAT IS REPORTED ON NUMEROUS WEBSITES, INCLUDING WWW.CARCOMPLAINTS.COM. PROBLEM SEEMS TO BE WIDESPREAD ON THE CARAVAN AND TOWN & COUNTRY MODELS, OCCURRING BETWEEN 50-70,000 MILES. CHRYSLER/DODGE IS NOT RECOGNIZING THIS AS A SYSTEMIC ISSUE WITH THE PLATFORM ALTHOUGH FREQUENCY OF OCCURRENCE WOULD SUGGEST OTHERWISE.

2005 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN HEADLIGHTS INTERMITENTLY WILL NOT TURN ON OR TURN OFF WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD RESULTING IN LOSS OF VISIBILITY. MAY CASES OF THIS CAN BE FOUND ON INTERNET AND MY OWN DEALERSHIP SERVICE CENTER INDICATED IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH SWITCH ($100+ FOR NEW SWITCH). FEEL THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND SHOULD BE REQUIRED RECALL. *CN

I WAS DRIVING ALONG AT NIGHT AND THE HEAD LIGHTS JUST TURNED OFF. I PLAYED WITH THE SWITCH AND THEY CAME BACK ON IT HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES I HAVE BEEN ABLE TO GET THEM TO COME BACK ON SO FAR. IT IS ONLY A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE THIS PROBLEM DOES SERIOUS DAMAGE. *DT

MY 2005 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN HEADLIGHTS INTERMITTENTLY GO OFF AND WON'T WORK. THIS IS A REAL SAFETY ISSUE. *TR

MY 2005 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN POWER LOCKS HAVE QUIT WORKING. IT HAPPENED BACK IN 2006 WHEN I BOUGHT THE VAN. I HAVE RESET THE FUSE SEVERAL TIMES BUT NOW IT GETS SHORTER AND SHORTER BETWEEN RESETS. SEVERAL OTHER DODGE GRAND CARAVAN OWNERS ARE HAVING THIS SAME PROBLEM. MY WIFE DRIVES THE KIDS IN THIS VAN AND NOT KNOWING IF THE VAN LOCKS OR NOT IS VERY DANGEROUS. WHEN LOCKED EVERYTHING "SOUNDS" LIKE IT IS LOCKING SO IT IS HARD TO TELL WITHOUT PAYING VERY CLOSE ATTENTION. *TR

THE HEADLIGHTS ON MY 2005 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN WENT OUT WHILE DRIVING. FOG LIGHTS COME ON AND GO OFF RANDOMLY. WITHOUT KEY IN THE IGNITION. THIS HAPPEN SHORTLY AFTER WE BOUGHT THE VAN IN 2005. THE DEALER SAID IT WAS THE SWITCH AND REPLACED IT. BUT THE LIGHTS HAVE BEEN COMING ON RANDOMLY EVERY SINCE. NOW, THE HEADLIGHTS WENT OUT WHILE WE WERE DRIVING. A SWITCH ISN'T THAT COMPLICATED. *TR

THE DOORS FAIL TO LOCK AT 18 MPH, AND UPON EXITING THE CAR WITH THE KEY FOB. IT OCCURS RANDOMLY, CONSEQUENCES ARE THE DOORS ARE NOT LOCKED WHILE DRIVING (YOU CAN'T LOCK IT), AND WHEN YOU LEAVE THE CAR, THE DOORS ARE UNLOCKED. REMOVING AND REPLACING THE IOD FUSE SEEMS TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM FOR A PERIOD OF TIME. *TR
