Consumer Description

I HAVE A 2005 DODGE CARAVAN SXT. POWER LOCKS QUIT WORKING. CAN NOT UNLOCK WITH REMOTE KEY, MUST USE KEY IN LOCK TO OPEN. I WAS TOLD TO DISCONNECT THE BATTERY AND THE IOD FUSE FOR TEN MINUTES AND RECONNECT. LOCKS WORK AWHILE THEN QUIT. I WAS TOLD THAT DODGE HAD A SOFT WARE FIX BUT, IT WOULD COST ABOUT ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS. I DON'T THINK IT IS RIGHT TO CHARGE FOR PROBLEM THEY CREATED AND SEEM TO KNOW ABOUT IT. IF THERE WAS AN EMERGENCY AND YOU NEEDED TO ACCESS THE VAN QUICKLY IT WOULD BE IMPOSSIBLE TO DO IT QUICKLY IF YOU HAVE TO FUMBLE WITH THE KEY. ALSO YOU COULDN'T LOCK IT QUICK ENOUGH FROM THE INSIDE. I THINK THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL ON THIS PROBLEM. I NOTICED ON THE INTERNET A NUMBER OF PEOPLE ARE FIGHTING THIS PROBLEM AS WELL. *TR
