The automatic door locks on both rear sliding doors failed two times each. Three times they failed in the unlocked position and van could not be secured - a major safety hazard since the doors could not be manually locked (e.g., theft). Other failed in the locked position and could not be manually unlocked. When fixed by dealer, dealer noted that this is a common problem. Recommend requiring recall. Fyi - I am a safety engineer for the us army.

Driver's side slifing door was working fine. Then on 1/24/99 we tried to open door to get my son out of his car seat, but the door would not open. It seemed like it was still locked. So my husband unlocked it again with the key. It still would not open. On 1/28/99, I took the car to a bertera dealer in palmer, MA (closer to home, ) and they checked the fuel door safety mechanism and it was ok. So they called Chrysler Corp and was informed that sometimes the lock activator seizes up. The entire inside door panel must be removed to fix the problem. Possibly need to replace the part if broken.
