Intermittent electric door lock failure. Had the main control panel on the driver's door replaced shortly after discovering the problem at a cost of about $175 part and labor--changed nothing. Researched on line and found that removing negative battery cable from the negative post for about 30 minutes temporarily fixes the door locks for about 2-3 weeks. I am not putting out $150-$250 to have the BCM re-flashed. This is Dodge's problem--please recall.
