Just discovered the Town and Country sitting in the attached garage, running, with the doors locked. I never lock the doors when the vehicle is in the garage. This tells me that it remote started itself. This is out in the country, so another transmitter accomplishing this would be slim to none.
One key fob was inside of the van, laying on top of the center console. The other key fob was easily within range, inside of a desk drawer, inside the house.
Understandably, I'm a bit upset about this. I realize that these models have been gifted with a flaky body control module, but this is a new one for me.
Is there anything that the dealer's service department might be able to download from the van to explain how this happened?
I already know how to disable the remote start in the meantime. There's a hood switch that won't allow the remote start to function if the hood is up. That switch is going to get unplugged, and is going to start thinking that the hood is up all of the time, until I can figure something out.
Anyone else hear of this happening before?
