3 Body problem

Failure Date: 11/23/2016

There have been many mechanical issues (electrical?) including sliding doors that do not work anymore (they must be closed manually). But the main problem I want to report is rust. Under the wheelwells, under the sliding doors, on the bottom of the trunk hatch doors. . . It's rusting apart. For a 2007 vehicle this is quite excessive. I've also noticed that other Dodge Grand Caravans of the same marine blue green color have the same exact problem. Has this been investigated? rusting apart. . . And it's been happening for a couple of years now. You would think a vehicle wouldn't start to have noticeable and pervasive rust in 7 or 8 years to the point where you are embarrassed to drive it.

7 Body problem

Failure Date: 06/01/2012

2007 Dodge Grand Caravan sxt stow n go having several electrical issues. 1. Passenger power sliding door failed, replaced power door motor, lock actuator, and repaired wiring as the wires actually break/snap overtime. Poor design. 2. Less than two years later passenger power sliding door has failed again, & power locks will not work, & I can open passenger sliding door after locking vehicle with key fob and alarm won't sound! cannot get my children in and out of this door without reaching in and pulling up the lever from inside (too stiff, my daughter isn't strong enough). This is a safety issue and researching it online shows that it is widespread. 3. Power seat motor has failed. We have stow n go seating. In order to stow the 2nd row seat you must move front seat to full forward position, then move driver seat back. . . . . . Driver seat is all the way back now (for my spouse) and I cannot move it forward. Gears are broken. I cannot reach the pedals and my seventh seat is stowed! I cannot get my seat back. 4. On passenger side a part below dashboard (I think is related to heating and cooling) fell off. My floor is now wet even after reattaching it. 5. Light galore! my vehicle rotates between check engine, and service tire system warnings. I've had it checked by several mechanics and all say it's electrical.

9 Body problem

Failure Date: 01/01/2007

If various other design flaws with other vehicle parts have been deemed worthy of recall to be redesigned because they have failed to do that for which they were designed. . . Then I feel like Dodge and Chrysler should recall millions of Mini vans they have produced in early 2000's that have totally rusted out lower portion of side sliding doors. . . Total design flaw!!!!! a design flaw is a design flaw. . . Manufactures fault. Thanks for listening. . Tom garoutte. . . Tcgaroutte@gmail. Com.
