JUST REPLACED BATTERY. WAS WORKING AND STARTING FINE AFTER REPLACING FOR A FEW WEEKS. WENT TO WORK YESTERDAY MORNING AND LEFT FOR LUNCH WITH NO ISSUES. WENT TO START CAR TO RETURN TO WORK AFTER LUNCH AND WOULDN'T TURN OVER AT ALL. I WOULD TURN THE KEY AND GET ONE CLICK BUT NOT TURNING OVER. MY RADIO, LIGHTS AND WINDOWS ALL WORK WHEN KEY IS IN THE ON POSITION. CHARGED THE BATTERY FOR NEARLY 40 MINUTES AND STILL NO START ONLY A CLICK. HAVE ALSO HAD ON-GOING ISSUES WITH WIRING HARNESSES THROUGHOUT VEHICLE.

BAD INGNITION MODULE. VAN TURNS RANDOMLY OFF BY IT SELF WHILE DRIVING. IF YOU PUSH ON THE FOB IN THE INGNITION IT WILL START TO RUN AGAIN. WHEN VAN TURNS OFF YOU LOSE CONTROL OF THE POWER STEERING AND BRAKES MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO COME TO A SAFE STOP. SAME ISSUES THAT DODGE RECALLED OTHER MODEL YEARS FOR BUT NOT THE GRAND CARAVAN. IT HAS OCCURED NUMEROUS TIMES TO US IN THIS VAN.
