2005 Dodge GRAND CARAVAN Electrical System Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	889395
Internal NHTSA #	10433041
Manufacurer	CHRYSLER GROUP LLC
Brand	DODGE
Model	GRAND CARAVAN
Model Year	2005
File date	09/08/10
Component	ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Electric locks: after 36000 miles and no more warranty on the vehicle the power locks quit working. I found that pulling the battery would resolve the issue for a short while but it would come back again and that doing this could cause issues with how the engine ran for a while and of course the radio and clock would have to be reset. After researching the issue i found that this is known issue and that it would require a firmware upgrade on the vehicle on board computer. The manufacterer nor dealer would do this at no cost. It cost me $85. 00 to get the update. I do not feel this is right and only hope that others will file complaints to get dodge to correct this and re-imburse their customers who have had to do this. As for me, this is my third dodge and will no longer buy another. *tt
