NHTSA Complaint #10588154 — 2008 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN

PASSENGER SIDE REAR SLIDING DOOR LOCKS AND WILL NOT UNLOCK WITH KEY FOB OR UNLOCK BUTTON ON BOTH FRONT DOORS. IT ALSO WILL NOT OPEN WITH A PULL ON THE INSIDE DOOR HANDLE. YOU HAVE TO MANUALLY UNLOCK IT ON THAT DOOR BEFORE IT WILL OPEN. I THINK THIS WOULD CAUSE A ISSUE IF I EVER NEED TO GET MY KIDS OUT IN A HURRY! ALSO THIS VAN HAS 30000 MILES ON IT AND IT USES APPROXIMATELY 1-1/2 QUART OF OIL EVERY 1000 MILES. ITS NOT SHOWING ANY SIGHS OF LEAKING ANYWHERE IN THE ENGINE OR UNDER THE VAN AND NOT LEAVING ANY PUDDLES ANYWHERE. I ASKED THE DODGE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THIS WAS NORMAL FOR A DODGE VEHICLE.... IN MY EYES THAT SHOULD NOT BE USING THAT MUCH OIL. I AM USING WHAT IS REQUIRED 10W20 SAE ACCORDING TO ME OWNERS MANUAL. I HAVE REPLACED THE PCV VALVE AND STILL CONTINUING TO LOOSE OIL. *TR
