Description of the problem	A 2005 dodge grand caravan sxt. The cluster gauges will bounce around and the lights, radio, etc., flicker. The car has died while idling. It has died when accelerating to turn at a stop light. It has died while stopped at a stop light. Occasionally the car will not restart right away after it has died. I have not been in an automobile accident as of yet, but i am extremely concerned that this could lead to me and my children (whom i almost always have in the car with me) being involved in an accident. Occasionally the wind shield wipers have just stopped working and the electric doors won't work and other random electrical issues. We have taken the car to the dealership and they told us that the battery had an internal short in it. So they replaced the battery and said that all was fixed. That worked for about a week and now we are back to square one. I have found many complaints about this problem on different websites from people with the same year of van and no one seems to have found a working solution. I think it is ridiculous that dodge can not seem to fix this problem or doesn't seem to know what the problem is when there are so many other people with the same issue. This is definitely a potentially life-threatening defect in this van and should be addressed asap!!!
