We have a 2018 dodge caravan with 69,000 miles on it - the check engine light showed a misfire on cylinder 5, after taking it to multiple mechanics they all have told us its an issue with the head gasket or possibly needs a new engine. This should not be happening with such a new vehicle with so few miles on it. after doing some research I have learned this is a common problem with this year, make and model.

My driver side rear door will not open or shut at all. I believe the locking mechanism is stuck preventing the door from unlocking and opening. I have a child that rides on this side of the vehicle and if we was to have an accident no one would be able to get that door open to get to child. There was no warning to this happening. I just came out of no where and one day stopped working.

THE REAR PASSENGER DOOR IS STUCK IN A LOCKED POSITION. IT CANNOT BE UNLOCKED MANUAL. THE LATCH IS COMPLETELY STUCK. WITH THREE KIDS, IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE FOR IT NOT TO OPEN. IT QUIT WORKING WITHOUT ANY WARNING AND THE VAN HAS LESS THAN 34,000 MILES ON IT. WE WENT IN TO CHURCH ON SUNDAY AND LOCKED THE DOORS WITH THE KEYLESS REMOTE. WE CAME OUT AND IT WOULDN'T UNLOCK. I SEE THIS IS AN ISSUE FOR MULTIPLE PEOPLE. THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL ISSUED.

THE LEFT SIDE PASSENGER SLIDING DOOR LOCKING MECHANISM FAILS AND STICKS IN THE LOCK POSITION. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH ON THE INTERNET IT HAS BEEN CLEAR THAT THIS IS A PRETTY COMMON OCCURRENCE WITH DODGE GRAND CARAVANS. IF I WOULD NEED TO GET MY BABY OUT QUICKLY FROM THIS SIDE OF THE VAN, THE LOCK MALFUNCTIONS AND THIS IS A HIGH SAFETY PROBLEM.

WE WERE DRIVING OUR VAN FROM YERMO, CA TO LAS VEGAS, NV ON 3/25/2021. WHEN WE ARRIVED IN LAS VEGAS, THE DRIVER-SIDE REAR SLIDING DOOR BECAME INOPERABLE BECAUSE THE LOCK WAS STUCK IN THE ENGAGED POSITION. THIS OCCURRED WITHOUT WARNING; THE DOOR WAS OPERABLE IN YERMO AND THERE WERE NO UNUSUAL SOUNDS THAT WOULD INDICATE AN IMPENDING PROBLEM. AFTER A LITTLE RESEARCH, I FOUND THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH GRAND CARAVANS, AND IS USUALLY CAUSED BY A FAILURE OF THE ELECTRONIC LOCK ACTUATOR. IT OFTEN OCCURS AFTER ABOUT 3 YEARS, OR 40K MILES. INDEED, OUR VAN WAS AT ABOUT 42K MILES AT THE TIME OF FAILURE. THE THING THAT TROUBLES ME ABOUT THE ELECTRONIC LOCK FAILURE IS THAT IT PREVENTS THE USER FROM MANUALLY UNLOCKING THE DOOR. IT SEEMS TO ME LIKE THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN DESIGNED TO COMPLY WITH 49 CFR 571.602 S4.3 FOR ONLY THREE YEARS. THEN DODGE CHARGES ~$1,100 TO REPLACE THE FAILED ACTUATOR, MEANING THAT THE ANNUALIZED COST TO THE DRIVER IS $367 PER REAR DOOR. WE HAVE FOUR YOUNG KIDS WITH AGES RANGING FROM 8 YEARS TO 5 MONTHS. THE INFANT CAR SEAT WAS PLACED ON THE PASSENGER SIDE, SO OUR OTHER THREE CHILDREN COULD ONLY REALLY ENTER AND EXIT THE VAN FROM THE DRIVER SIDE. THE FAILURE OF THE DRIVER-SIDE DOOR MEANT THAT WE HAD TO REMOVE THE ENTIRE INFANT CAR SEAT TO ALLOW THE OTHER KIDS EGRESS FROM THE VAN. HAVING ONLY ONE OPERATING DOOR IS NOT SUSTAINABLE FOR US, NOR IS SPENDING $733 PER YEAR TO KEEP BOTH DOORS OPERABLE.

I WAS DRIVING UP A BUSY INTERSECTION AND MY 2018 DODGE CARAVAN STOPPED RANDOMLY IN ON GOING AND ON COMING TRAFFIC AND I COULDN'T START IT. I HAVE HAD THE CAR FOR 8 MONTHS AND I KEEP UP WITH MAINTENANCE. MY FAMILY WAS AFRAID BECAUSE CARS WERE DRIVING UP FAST BEHIND US IN A NARROW TWO WAY STREET.
