Open the full vehicle complaint log (all categories)My family and I were getting ready to leave the house and the passenger sliding door stopped working and is stuck in the locked position.

I had the driver’s side power window go down and not go back up. Had the power window fixed by an auto shop. It was the regulator and motor for the power windows that went bad. $984 later it is now working. I’m reporting this so there’s a record of the issue on this vehicle. 2019 Dodge Grand Caravan GT. 85k miles.
The back up camera is malfunctioning. It is not showing a picture at all anymore. It started right when I bought the car a year and a half ago. It was showing the picture then the picture would go away while I was backing up. It also would show the picture upside down and right side up and the picture would go off and on. Now the picture does not come on at all. I believe this should be a recall issue. I found it to be dangerous to see the picture flipping around upside down and turning off.
The vehicle was running on idle parked after being driven and on for less than 20 minutes. I started the van at 8:35. Drove away at 8:41, let it run on idle for 5 minutes, drove away, let it idle for 2 minutes at 9:04, drove away, let it idle at 9:06 and was smoking and had flames by 9:23 when we noticed it. The heat gauge didn't change, there was no indication that my engine was on fire or there was any issue. It drove fine, no smell, nothing. We have zero idea what happened other than it started in the engine compartment. Is it currently still sitting in the parking lot that it was pushed to away from the building as to not cause more damage to the building. It was sitting outside a building, so everyone inside and outside were in the area of smoke and flames. There is not a police report, but there is a fire report. I can email that over if needed. I'm still waiting for the fire marshalls final report. I also have active videos of it with flames shooting out of the engine and from under the hood if needed that I can email over.
2019 dodge caravan left passenger door keeps buzzing, door lock and will not open, alarm keep going off stating rear door is open and lights staying on.
ISSUE: sliding door lock actuators seize and lock the door. Only way to unlock is to take completely apart the inside door panels, motors, cables etc etc, it's hell. This is definitely a safety issue.
Vehicle just shut off and the red lightning bolt started flashing on the dash.
Drivers side passenger sliding rear door is stuck in the locked position and will not open. I believe the door actuator is froze in the locked position. A disabled person who was riding in that seat was unable to get out the vehicle on his own. He had to be moved to the other side and exit the working door. Had there been an emergency, we would have lost a lot of valuable time. I have an appointment with dodge for an inspection. Google searches find many people have this same issue.
Driver side passenger sliding door DOES NOT OPEN. It is not unlocking, stays in lock position. Completely unable to open the door without breaking it. HUGE safety issue with having kids being stuck in the car and not able to order the door. Seen numerous people having same issue with the latching system. No warning was given on the door not being able to work.
P1790,P0868,P083B, P0736, P0733 codes. Transmission went bad. See attached invoice for more details.
While car is in drive, side electric doors try and open on their own. Vehicle tells you this action cannot be completed until car is in park. When placing car in park, the passenger sliding door automatically opens. Battery is being drained and while car is off, front control panel is clicking intermittently and the cluster dials are moving, drawing power.
.The contact owned a 2019 Dodge Grand Caravan SXT. The contact stated the driver-side sliding door would not open manually or when utilizing the remote. No warning lights illuminated. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact referenced the vehicle's manufacturer recall (X98) as a possible solution, however, the VIN was not included in the recall. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 72,000.
My 2019 Dodge Grand Caravan GT driver side sliding door is jammed shut and locked. I took it to 2 dealerships near me and both want almost $1000 per door to fix. The actuator is out and they said the loud noise when opening and closing the passenger side sliding door is a sign that door is also about to go out. My VIN doesn’t fall into the recalls. This seems like it is a hazard. If both doors indeed get stuck then how do you get car seats in and out? Isn’t it dangerous if other kids have to climb in and out the front doors? I’m so confused how my van isn’t a recall when it will be dang near impossible to move car seats and kids through front doors or even moving 3rd row to get in and out and put back up for it to be sat in. What do you do in event of a crash or heaven forbid a fire if you can get kids out? Please help! This has been going on since March 2024. I have been submitting this issue since I was told cost and was also told the noise the current working door is making is a sign that it also will quit working soon. What else can I do to get this issue fixed. I say this is a manufacturing issue and is highly dangerous.
The driver's side sliding door will not unlock or open. It was working previously without any problems and now it will no longer open remotely or manually. This is very unsafe for my passengers since they would be trapped inside the vehicle in an emergency or accident situation. I am aware of this being an ongoing problem with the Dodge Caravan Lock Actuator and that a recall was issued for 2015-2017 models. This recall needs to be expanded to include all years from 2018-2020 as it is the same faulty Lock Actuator problem. There is also a class action lawsuit regarding the faulty Lock Actuators. Please put pressure on FCA US, LLC to expand the recall and fix all of their faulty Lock Actuators. Thank you.

Driver back sliding door makes buzzing noise when door lacks or unlocks. It will do it also going down road.
My wife parked the van in our church parking lot. Turned it off and locked the doors like normal. Came out two hours later to see the front windows covered in smoke and the. Hitting the unlock button on the key fob opened the door to find the driver seat melted, center console, right half of steering wheel, driver window visor and roof melted and burnt. The fire of damage was only in that area the rest of the car has heat damage and smoke damage. But from under the driver seat and up completely melted away. This just happened today Feb 4, working though USAA insurance company to figure out the way forward.
On 2019 Dodge Grand Caravan the side sliding door does not lock. When van is locked, the side sliding door can be opened from the outside (similar issue was reported on 2016 models) while van is supposedly locked. Safety and theft problem.
