Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“When driving on the freeway (40 MPH or more) the driver and passenger side door trim flies off. This has happened to 9 out of the 11 Dodge Grand Caravan's that we own and has hit other vehicles causing them to swerve. If this happened once or even twice I wouldn't think much of it - but 3 of the Dodge grand caravans we actually replaced this piece more than once and it continues to happen. I would say that we have had at least 13 of these fly off in the past 2 years from our 2014 - 2018 Dodge Grand Caravan models. …”
NHTSA complaint #11360512, filed 2020-09, 182,993 miles“My 2014 Dodge Grand Caravan left side sliding door has suddenly become stuck. The vehicle was just sitting in my driveway when I came out one morning and it would not open. I cant unlock it manually or with the fob. When I googled the problem I see there is a slew of people all over the country with the same problem, with many different years of Grand Caravan's. Dodge has not done a recall because, I understand from others, that Dodge is charging $1100 per vehicle to fix the problem. Can you press them to do a recall? …”

NHTSA complaint #11221925, filed 2019-06, 2 miles“Drivers side sliding door completely shut. Won't open remotely nor manually. I've read too many complaints on this matter . Manufacture should take responsibility and do a recall for free repair.”
