| Description of the problem | The automatic door locks on my 2005 dodge grand caravan sxt will stop working with no notice. I have found by searching on the internet that pulling the fuse and replacing it will solve the problem for a few days, but it happens again within days. This is a real safety problem for my wife as this is her car and she travels with our 3 children in the car. Since the vehicle is only able to be unlocked manually on the driver's side door only, it would make it very hard for her to get into the vehicle quickly if there was a problem with one of our kids. It seems dodge has no solution to this problem. |
