| Description of the problem | Power door locks stop working on dodge grand caravan 2005 model. This now happens everyday. When this happens it may allow occupants to be thrown from the vehicle in cases of accident or allow unwanted persons to enter the vehicle without forced entry. Initially this could be temporarily fixed by removal and re-insertion of the iod fuse under the hood. This procedure now does not work anymore. It is my understanding that this is a software issue that dodge must fix with a upgrade. |
