Description of the problem	I have a 2005 dodge caravan. My power locks and sliding side door stopped working. Could not lock/unlock doors with key entry nor the lock switch inside. Also, i could not open/close the side sliding door with key entry nor with switch inside the van. Had to manually lock/unlock doors throughout the van. On one website, i found 42 people with the same complaint about the power locks that go back for a two year period (march 2007 to may 2009). I have done what they suggest, which is to either disconnect the battery for 5 minutes, remove the #20 iod fuse for 5 seconds, or pay to have dodge update the software for the computer in the vehicle. I did the second choice. If all goes as it was stated on the website, the problem with the power locks will occur again. All but about 5 people have had recurring problems with their power locks. I feel that this is a safety issue due to the fact that i have two young kids who are able to open the doors by themselves if they wanted to do so. Also, someone could get into the vehicle at any time when the power locks do not work and the person does not know that it is not working. Please help up with this situation.
