Description of the problem	I bought a 2008 dodge grand caravan sxt in 3/2008. From the start, i felt the van would not start properly. The engine would continue to turn over even after i had let go of the key and it takes an unusual amount of time to complete start cycle. I was advised by the dealer that this wa common in newer vehicles. Another problem was that the inside window,door lock,auto door openers only worked intermittently. Last month, while driving, the dash lights all lit up and the van died immediately. This has happened three separate times since then. Each time, the vehicle ran fine once restarted but it has been sheer luck it hasn't resulted in n accident. A couple of weeks ago, a new problem arose. I noticed that when i started the van, although it was running, none of the systems up front were working. The air conditioning, radio, or power windows among other things would not work at all. The van needed to be turned off and restarted to get it to work properly. This has also happened repeatedly since.
