2016 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN Complaints

SLIDING DOOR LOCK WILL NOT UNLOCK. IT IS STUCK IN THE LOCK POSITION. CAN NOT UNLOCK IT THROUGH REMOTE, INTERIOR SWITCH OR MANUALLY. THE DOOR IS SHUT AND WILL NOT OPEN, WHICH IS A SAFETY HAZARD. VEHICLE WAS PARKED WHEN I WENT TO DO GROCERIES. RETURNED TO VEHICLE AND THE DRIVERS SIDE SLIDING DOOR WOULD NOT UNLOCK.

WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC WHEN THE VEHICLE DIED. THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM WAS STILL FUNCTIONAL, BUT THE BRAKES AND THE POWER STEERING WERE NOT WORKING AND THE CAR APPEARED TO BE IDLING, BUT NON-RESPONSIVE. WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER AND FORCE THE GEAR INTO PARK AND TURN THE CAR OFF AND WHEN THE VEHICLE TURNED ON NO WARNING LIGHTS WERE DISPLAYED.

DRIVER SIDE PASSENGER DOOR WAS LOCKED SHUT. HAD TO BRING THE VEHICLE IN FOR SERVICE MULTIPLE TIMES TO CORRECT THE ISSUES. THE FIRST TIME THEY DISASSEMBLED THE DOOR AND ONCE ON A WORK BENCH IT WORKED FINE, THEY PUT BACK INTO THE VEHICLE AND 2 DAYS LATER IT WAS BACK TO LOCKED SHUT. BROUGHT IN FOR SERVICE AGAIN AND HAD THE LOCK ACTUATOR REPLACED. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD FOR MY CHILDREN WHEN THE DOOR IS NOT OPERATIONAL. THE PASSENGER SIDE DOOR IS ALSO MAKING A GRINDING NOISE WHICH WAS SIMILAR TO THE NOISE THE DRIVER SIDE MADE BEFORE IT STOPPED WORKING. IF I HAVE BOTH DOORS NONOPERATIONAL THIS IS AN EXTREMELY BIG SAFETY ISSUE FOR ANYONE RIDING IN THIS VEHICLE. I HAVE SPENT OVER $500 ON THIS ISSUE AND AM WORRIED IT WILL BE AT LEAST AN ADDITIONAL $500 TO FIX THE ISSUES ON THE PASSENGER SIDE DOOR ONCE THAT BEGINS TO FAIL.

MY PASSENGER REAR SLIDING DOOR WON'T UNLOCK. NO MATTER WHAT YOU DO TO TRY TO UNLOCK THE DOOR IT WON'T UNLOCK. THE POWER LOCKS AND MANUAL LOCKS ARE STUCK. IF YOU ARE IN THE REAR SEAT YOU CAN'T GET OUT UNLESS YOU CRAWL TO THE OTHER SIDE OF THE VAN. IT HAPPENED WHEN I PARKED MY VEHICLE AT A RESTAURANT AND THE DOOR WOULDN'T UNLOCK. I HAD TO GET MY 3 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER TO CRAWL ACROSS MY VEHICLE TO GET HER OUT

I HAVE A 2016 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN AND EVERY TIME I UNLOCK THE DOOR OR LOCK IT IT MAKES THIS LOUD BUZZING NOISE, THE DOOR WORKS FINE IT OPENS AND CLOSE. BUT WHEN USING THE UNLOCK BUTTON EVERYONE CAN HEAR THE LOAD BUZZING NOISE.

DRIVERS SIDE DOOR WILL NOT OPEN. MANUALLY OR BY REMOTE. IT IS STUCK IN LOCK MODE. SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE! I HAVE AN INFANT IN A CARSEAT AND 3 OTHER CHILDREN THAT THIS IMPACTS! IF WE WERE IN AN ACCIDENT SOMEONE COULD DIE!!
