| Description of the problem | I love our van as far as convenience and features, but have had progressive electrical issues. The first issue was the automatic sliding doors stopped working. We had to switch off the power and use them manually. The interior light at the driver's side slide shorted out. Every now and then it decides to work. Then the door locks on both of the slides stopped working. Some times the door locks will not unlock the lift gate and we have to open it with the key. The front map lights work some of the time. My front windows have stopped working at different times and the begin working again. Sometimes the things have reset if i had to get my battery jumped off or when i replaced my battery. The most concerning thing to me is that my right rear brake light and turn signal lights keep blowing. I have replaced them numerous times and the last time it still did not work. Now i just don't have a light. Not sure how expensive this will be to fix. Very frustrated at the continuous and complex issues that are going on. Seems that there should be a recall since i have heard of various others that i know having these type of issues. |
