6 Warning Light On problem of the 2008 Dodge Grand Caravan

Failure Date: 02/26/2020

Electric door locks and air bag system have stopped functioning normally. When you first start driving, the electric door locks are supposed to lock at 15 mph. Sometimes they will not lock until you are going 30 mph or 45 mph. Note that all three speeds are multiples of 15. After the doors eventually lock themselves, all of the door locks in the vehicle will unlock without warning as you are driving. This can happen at any speed - 20 mph, 70 mph, whatever. Once they unlock, the vehicle will continue "unlocking" the doors repeatedly every 5- 10 seconds continuously. The front doors can be manually locked by pushing down the door lock button located at the top rear section of the door. As soon as you manually lock the doors, they will unlock again and continue to unlock the doors every 5 - 10 seconds as you are driving the car. In addition, the air bag warning light in the dash lights up when you start the car and stays continuously lit as you are driving it. I consider these dangerous defects. It is unsafe to drive, and my Dodge dealership told me there no "open recalls" for my vehicle. This vehicle has only 86,000 miles on it.

9 Warning Light On problem of the 2014 Dodge Grand Caravan

Failure Date: 01/10/2017

My 2014 Dodge Grand Caravan has about 40k miles and the air bag warning light activates intermittently. I have an extended warranty that does not cover airbags and the dealership (with whom I purchased the warranty) has no interest in diagnosing the issue unless I pay an up-front fee. I think a vehicle this new should not be having this issue in the first place as it is obviously a defect or an electrical failure of some sort. Do I have any recourse? thanks!.

12 Warning Light On problem of the 2007 Dodge Grand Caravan

Failure Date: 12/29/2015

My wife is handicapped. I own a lowered floor minivan with a ramp for wheelchair access. Vantage mobility International ("vmi"), 5202 south 28th place, phoenix, az 85040, (602) 243-2700 did the conversion of my 2007 Dodge Grand Caravan to make it handicapped accessible ("ramp van"). Dodge/Chrysler ("Dodge") works with vmi and a Dodge dealer in tempe arizona to sell ramp vans nationwide through a dealer network. Ramp vans are sold through local dealers who provide both warranty and non warranty service for the conversion elements of the ramp vans. Local Dodge dealers provide non-conversion warranty and non-warranty service. It is not unusual for each to point the finger at the other concerning electrical and mechanical problems. The driver's side front air bag does not work properly. It only operates intermitently. It has been taken to both vision Dodge (920 panorama trail south, rochester, NY 14625, (585) 385-5700, and autocrafting 72 hinchey road, rochester, NY 14624 on several occasions for repairs to the airbag system. Autocrafting reported that vmi was involved in troubleshooting the problem. Between vision Dodge and autocrafting there have been 3 or 4 attempts to fix the airbag problem to no avail. Vision Dodge charged me substantial costs for repairs that did not fix the problem. Neither Dodge nor vmi has been able to fix the problem. The air bag failure and the inability of Dodge and vmi to fix it indicates a major design failure in an essential and legally required safety system. The airbag system goes on and off while being driven on city streets and highways as reported by the vehicle's warning lights. Whoever is driving the vehicle is at serious risk of death or injury should the van be involved in an accident with the airbag not working. Occurred 12/2015 and from October 2016 to date.
