Consumer Description

MY 2005 DODGE CARAVAN SXT POWER DOOR LOCKS FAIL TO LOCK OR UNLOCK WITH THE REMOTE OR DOOR SWITCH. THE MANUAL DOOR LOCK IS THE ONLY WAY TO LOCK OR UNLOCK THE DOORS. WITH THERE ONLY BEING ONE KEY HOLE, THIS IS A HUGE INCONVENIENCE AND SAFETY FACTOR. WHAT IF YOU HAVE SEVERAL CHILDREN AND ARE TRYING TO GET EVERYONE IN THE VAN AND CAN ONLY OPEN THE DRIVER'S DOOR? THIS COULD POSE A POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS SITUATION AS YOU'RE TRYING TO GET EVERYONE INSIDE THE VAN, ONE OF THE KIDS COULD WANDER AWAY, POSSIBLY INTO TRAFFIC. I'M SURE YOU HAVE HEARD ALL OF THIS BEFORE BECAUSE EVERY 2005 CARAVAN OWNER I HAVE TALKED TO HAS THIS PROBLEM AND MORE. *TR
