What owners wrote
My sliding door quit working half way thru cycle. My power went dead in doors and locks I took it to the dodge dealer they could not find the problem said it was either the ECM or the bcm but not sure. They did not want to replace as they would just burn out again if this was the problem and still a short somewhere it was safe to drive.
Headlights on my 2006 dodge grand caravan have been intermittent on various occasions. When you turn the switch on, headlights do not always activate. No injuries, no accidents, but could cause a potential accident by not being able to see, or to be seen. Once the problem was recognized, in each instance, by playing with the switch, the lights eventually would come on. First instance was probably in 2007, latest in 2009 on a couple of different occasions.
