The passenger driver side door will not open. It is power it will not open with any of the button it will also not open manually. This is a huge safety concern. If I was in a accident or anything and needed to get that door open I would not be able to get my children out of the car. If the other door breaks I would not be able to use my car at all. I'm extremely worried about needed that door and not being able to and something happening to my children. I called dodge customer service they told me I was out of luck and would have to pay for it to get fixed my self. I would need to first pay for the dealer to figure out what it is and pay around 1,000 dollars for it to be fixed. I have seen hundreds of people complain about this happened to vans. Please help with problem many families in danger with these door not opening at all. I'm terrified for my children with this door not opening at all.

Parked in driveway, tried to open rear driver side door and it is locked and I cannot unlock it. My husband suffered a massive stroke and this van is how we get around.

After heavy rain over the night, while the van was parked, a lot of water ended in the rear interior, luggage area, so in the morning without a draining plug I couldn't drain it out from underneath, but had to collect it with towel and paper in order to put there my food I just bought. I guess the gap between the roof and rear-5th door is too wide, because I cannot see the rubber which goes around is bad. My other vehicle, parked by this one, also with 5th door stayed dry, and this van has only 100 miles.
