2008 Dodge Caravan Electrical problems

Originally had taken car in for recall. The recall was for both doors. The dealer had delivered the car and told me I would be contacted for repair on the passenger door once the parts were in stock. After months of waiting I finally contacted them and was told that the parts were in stock. I made the appointment and when I was set to drop off the van I was told that I was going to be charged because it has been put in as complete in the dealers records but showed parts not installed. I was told to contact dodge...

Tl* the contact owned a 2008 dodge caravan. The contact stated that while the vehicle was parked, the rear module ignited and melted. As a result, all the connecting wires were damaged.

When I could safely pull over again I shut the vehicle off at this time the windshield wipers start going and the horn is sounding off. I then got out disconnected the battery waited for 5...

Ignition switche was replaced on a recall. But now this ignitin switches is not working right. Some times the van will not start. I had it check out and its the ignition switche that was replaced on my car because of the recall. What do I do now to get this replaced again. The van may shut off when driving.

My headlights are flickering I see many car complaints about the tipm relay and want it fixed under the recall I could have had a car accident this issue should have been fixed

Was driving home at night when randomly my lights started flashing, horn started blaring, windshield wipers started going off, washer fluid was spraying everywhere. Locks were locking and unlocking. I ended up driving into someone's lawn as I could not see properly with poor lighting and all the distractions. Once I got home the vehicle continued to be possessed even without the key in the ignition. I was finally able to get everything to stop after unplugging the battery. Upon internet research it didn't take...

Many issues, appear to be related to the tipm. Headlights intermittently stop working, as do the windshield wipers(various times, when driving/when starting the car). Car horn beeps when driver door is opened. Air conditioner/heater intermittently stops working (when driving), will usually come back on after pulling over and restarting the car. Very dangerous in the winter.

The integrated power module fails, leading to the engine cutting out, as well as horn, wipers and washer going off randomly. This happens regardless of temperature, driving conditions, etc. The dealers know exactly what the issue is, and love the $1200+ the get for replacement of this notoriously defective part.

The elterice proublems with the drivers controll switch too open an close the windows , has it been know too catch on fire an make all the lights on the dash board go on an off now an then .Lucky we just'd started up the van too warn up an all then sudden we notice the drivers contorll switch was on fire .

My van is up to date on all recalls, but it has begun to shut off randomly while driving. The traction control light comes on and whole thing shuts off. I have seen a ton of others with the same complaint. The dealership has been less than helpful. I have poured money into the car, but it is unsafe. Looks like a recall issue. There is no rhyme or reason to when it shuts off. Thankfully, it has been at less than 30 mph because it is very unsafe. Others with the same complaint: ...

The dash board lights and the wiper blades flick on and off while driving

Tl* the contact owns a 2008 dodge caravan. The contact stated that the key fob did not open the vehicle's doors correctly and triggered the vehicle's alarm system. Whenever the contact adjusted the steering wheel in an upward position, the air bag warning indicator illuminated. The dealer was unable to diagnose or repair the vehicle because it was included in a recall the manufacturer was not made aware of the failure the recall information was not provided. The approximate failure mileage was 100,000. Updated 06/13/17*lj *cn

My 2008 caravan originally had a recall an replacement of the electrical sliding door that were faulty an could catch fire. Now that was replaced, it's already failed and caused a hole new safety issue. If the door is not completely closed the door ajar light doesn't come on and the door flys open while in motion. Both doors have completely failed and no longer function as intended. This concerns me since I have small children an their hands or limbs could be smashed by the door while in motion.

The van will be sitting in driveway and the horn starts blowing, the wipers will come on and washer motor will come on too and the headlights come on also sometimes the engine will turn off going down the road. We can't drive it very far my wife drives it to work a few blocks away but that's about it we are afraid to drive it anywhere.

Tl* the contact owns a 2008 dodge caravan. The contact stated that while driving approximately 50 mph, the vehicle stalled without warning. The contact was able to put the vehicle in park and restart it on the first attempt. The vehicle was not taken to a dealer to be diagnosed or repaired. The contact received notification of nhtsa number: 14v373000 (air bags, electrical system) however, the part to do the repair was unavailable. The contact stated the manufacturer exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 110,000. Parts distribution disconnect.

The switch housing in the drivers door that controls the windows on my 2008 dodge caravan caught fire when my daughter rolled down her window on the passenger side. I was driving down the road at the time and was only a couple of blocks from the house. Dodge has recalled the 2010-2014 models with the 3rd row electric vent windows which my vehicle also has. I reported the incident to fca, the parent company of dodge, and was told I would receive a call from their investigative unit in 48hrs. That was more than a week ago. Multiple calls later and they still have not bothered to call me back.

Wipers, lights, horn,door locks all seemed to go off went no warning wipers start spraying fluid by itself. Could not get to stop windows would not work, had to pull horn fuses to make horn stop blowing disconnect battery to make sure it would start to have it taken to be looked at very disappointed in vehicle only 81,500 miles on it

Van's horn blows/wipers turn on & off by themselves/the washer squirters activate/ mirrors start moving/interior lights blink on & off/doors locks randomly lock & unlock by themselves/vehicle will not shut off at times when turning key off/stalls while driving/also acts like it does not want to shift at times. Dealer diagnosed it needing tipm module totally integrated power module, both sliding door wiring harnesses for a total cost of $1,825.68.

One day the van started horn's honking, front and rear wipers going, washer fluid shooting all over. All controls wouldn't work to shut off. Door locks won't work. Interior lights blinking. This happen on several times days apart and then vehicle wouldn't start. One time while traveling about 35 miles an hour the vehicle shut off. After stopping the vehicle started again. Last time this happened the vehicle wouldn't shift to higher gear going down the road. We have taken vehicle in to out local dealer waiting to see what they say. 3-Days in no answer yet.
