| Description of the problem | 05 dodge caravan power door locks fail to function after short time after reset. Have rest system several times. Pulling bcm fuse and or unhooking battery resets system and then fails after short time. Last time fit failed rear hatch lock would not engage. Had to disconnect battery again to get door locks to work, because i was out of town and had items in van and couldn't take the chance of theft. I feel this is a safety issue because of this. After reading many complaints about this and the dealers say that this is a software problem, there should be a recall for this problem. |
