| Description of the problem | My 2005 dodge caravan's power locks stopped working about a yr ago (2009) i tried replacing the fuse, new battery. This did not correct the problem. There is only one keyed entry into the vehicle which is on the drivers door which forces you to crawl all around the vehicle to open the other 3 door. In the even of an emergency this would be a huge safety issue. I know from reading other forums that thousands of other 2005 dodge caravan owners have this same problem. Apparently dodge is aware of it because they have a software program update for it. |
