| Description of the problem | My 2005 dodge grand caravan the auto door locks/remote door locks have stopped working. Have tried following instructions in manual and even have tried disconnecting the battery cable to reset. These were only temporary fixes, that no longer works along with the doors. I have to manually lock/unlock the doors which is a huge inconvenience with a child under the age of 2. My fear now is that my child will figure out how to open the door since it wont lock and fall out. The remote door lock feature was one of the reasons why we purchased this vehicle because of our family. Please have this recalled so we can feel safe with our children. |
