2005 Dodge GRAND CARAVAN Latches Locks Linkages Hatchback Liftgate Loc Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	649238
Internal NHTSA #	10206855
Manufacurer	DAIMLERCHRYSLER CORPORATION
Brand	DODGE
Model	GRAND CARAVAN
Model Year	2005
File date	25/10/07
Component	LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES:HATCHBACK/LIFTGATE:LOC
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	1) no events leading up to failure. 2) rear liftgate electric latch fails to actuate. This is the only way to open the rear liftgate as there is no manual override. I believe this is a safety problem because in minivans, the rear passengers are not easily accessible via the sliding side doors. In our case, children in child-restraint safety seats are in all rear seats of the vehicle (middle and rear, i. E. 4 kids). The only way to access rear passengers is to either crawl over the middle seats to the rear or via the liftgate. However... The latch fails and the gate does not open. 3) actuator switch had to be replaced (approx cost $90. 00). *jb
