2010 DODGE CARAVAN Exterior Lighting Problems

HEADLIGHTS GO OUT UNEXPECTEDLY, IT HAS HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING AND WHILE STANDING STILL. FOG LIGHTS AND RUNNING LIGHTS WORK BUT HEADLIGHTS DO NOT. IF THEY ARE WORKING AND YOU TURN ON THE BRIGHTS THEY GO OUT AND THEY GO ON AND OFF BY THEMSELVES.

WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT ON A BACK ROAD THE HEADLIGHTS SUDDENLY SHUT OFF EVER THING ELSE WAS FINE LUCKLY I HAD MY FOG LIGHTS ON BECAUSE IT WAS A DARK ROAD . I COULD NOT GET THE HIGH OR LOW BEAMS TO WORK SO DROVE HOME WITH JUST THE FOG LIGHTS .

WHILE DRIVING IN RAIN STORM WITH CRUISE CONTROL,WIPERS,LIGHTS,AND RADIO ON POWER TO CONTROLS WOULD TURN OFF. ENGINE WAS STILL RUNNING AND SYSTEMS CAME BACK ON AFTER TURNING OFF RADIO, LIGHTS FOR AWHILE.

HELLO, I OWN A 2010 DODGE CARAVAN. SUNDAY APRIL 19, 2015 I WAS DRIVING TOWARDS LAS VEGAS FROM KINGMAN, AZ AT NIGHT WHEN SUDDENLY MY HEADLIGHTS TURN OFF. KEEP IN MIND I HAVE MY 3 KIDS WITH ME, AGES 8,9 AND 10. I TURNED BACK AROUND AFTER DRIVING OVER 40 MILES, USING ONLY MY FOG LIGHTS THAT PROVIDE 40-50 FEET OF VISIBILITY. I CAUTIOUSLY DRIVE HOME ALMOST IN THE DARK, MADE IT HOME AND GOOGLED THIS PROBLEM. LOOKS LIKE A TIPM ISSUE FROM WHAT I GATHERED. SO IN THE MORNING MY VEHICLE DOESN'T START. I CALLED MY LOCAL DODGE DEALER, THEY AREN'T AWARE OF A RECALL ON THIS AND HAS NEVER HEARD THIS BEFORE. ADDITIONALLY THEY WANT $110 TO TELL ME WHAT'S WRONG WITH MY VEHICLE. SO I HAD MY VEHICLE TOWED TO MARTIN SWANTY HYUNDAI TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM FOR FREE, AND I SPENT $111 ON WHAT THEY SAID...

HEADLIGHTS UNEXPECTEDLY GO OUT. DO NOT COME BACK FOR A FEW DAYS SOMETIME A MONTH. HAPPENS WHEN YOU ARE DRIVING AT NIGHT SOMETIMES THEY JUST WONT COME ON WHEN TURNED ON. WHEN STUCK WITH OUT HEADLIGHTS HAVE TO DRIVE HOME WITH FOG LIGHTS. VERY DANGEROUS. *TR

HEADLIGHTS WOULD NOT COME ON AFTER DARK. CAR HAD TO BE TOWED. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS, WHERE THE HEADLIGHTS DO COME ON THEN GO OFF. VERY UNSAFE!! IT WAS RETURNED TO THE DEALER AFTER THE FIRST INCIDENT TO FIX, BUT IT HAS HAPPENED AGAIN REPEATEDLY. NOW WE HAVE TO TAKE IT BACK TO THE DEALER FOR A $700 FIX. UNSAT!! *TR

UPON STARTING THE DODGE CARAVAN SE 2010 I CLOSED BOTH POWER PASSENGER DOORS WITH MY CHILDREN IN SAFETY BELTS, UPON ENTERING THE DRIVERS SIDE MY CHILD ASKED ME TO TURN ON THE OVERHEAD LIGHTS SO THAT SHE COULD FIND SOMETHING THAT DROPPED ON THE FLOOR WITH THE DRIVERS DOOR OPENED, AND THE VEHICLE RUNNING I TURNED ON THE OVERHEAD LIGHTS ONLY TO HAVE BOTH POWER PASSENGER DOORS OPEN ON THEIR OWN. I WAS ABLE TO REPLICATE THIS ERROR A NUMBER OF TIMES UNDER SIMILAR CONDITIONS, AND AM UNABLE TO PIN POINT A CAUSE. THIS COULD BE A LARGE SAFETY DEFECT. WHAT IF THIS WAS TO HAPPEN WHILE TRAVELING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS ? THIS ISSUE COULD CAUSE A MINOR PASSENGER TO BE EJECTED FROM THE VEHICLE. I ASK FOR A RECALL / INVESTIGATION. *TR

ON 7/16/2013 IT WAS RAINING BUT NOT HARD AND I HAD MY HEADLIGHTS ON AND DROPPED OFF A PASSENGER AND AS I WENT INTO THE DRIVEWAY MY LIGHTS WERE SHINING ON THE GARAGE DOOR. AS SOON AS I GOT TO THE END OF THE DRIVEWAY WHICH HAD A SLIGHT UP GRADE THE HEADLIGHTS FLASHED ON AND OFF 2 TO 3 TIMES AND THEY WOULD NOT STAY ON AFTER THAT. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY ADVISED ME TO REPLACE BOTH HEADLIGHTS WHICH WAS DONE. THIS SEEMED TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM AND ALL DAY WEDNESDAY I DROVE THE VAN WITH THE HEADLIGHTS ON AND THEY SEEMED TO WORK. HOWEVER ON THURSDAY WE TOOK A SMALL TRIP WHICH TOOK US 45 MILES AWAY FROM HOME. WHEN WE STARTED BACK ON THURSDAY NIGHT 7/18/13 THE LIGHTS FLASHED A FEW TIMES AND THEN WENT OUT. WE WERE UNABLE TO DRIVE HOME AND GOT TO...

I HAVE A 2010 DODGE CARAVAN THE FIRST ISSUE WAS THE TRANSMISSIONS TOOK IT TO A DEALER WHO CHECKED IT AND SAID THE PROBLEM WAS IN THE COMPUTER DID AN UPGRADE CORRECTED SOME OF THE PROBLEM STILL HAVING PROBLEMS WITH IT SHIFTING THE SECOND ISSUE WAS THE IGNITION SWITCH WHICH I TOOK IT IN DUE TO A RECALL I RECEIVED BOUGHT THE VEHICLE USED SO THE RECALL HAD NO BEEN DONE AFTER RECALL WAS COMPLETED NOW HAVING TROUBLE WITH HEAD LIGHTS NEVER HAD A PROBLEM UNTIL SWITCH WAS CHANGED WHEN WE GOT IT BACK NOTICED THAT WHEN KEY WAS IN HEAD LIGHTS CAME ON THIS VEHICLE DOES NOT HAVE DRIVING ON AUTO HEAD LIGHTS ACCORDING TO PAPERWORK I HAVE SHORTLY THERE AFTER WHEN TURNING ON THE HEADLIGHTS THEY FLASH A COUPLE TIMES AND GO OFF UNABLE TO GET THEM TO COME BACK ON NOW THE LIGHTS COME ON WHEN EVER...

WHEN DRIVING THERE IS NO NOTICEABLE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN HIGH AND LOW BEAMS- IF ANYTHING THE LOWS SEEM BRIGHTER- ALSO, I GET FLASHED A LOT BY ONCOMING DRIVERS WHEN MY LIGHTS ARE ON LOW BEAMS. *TR
