battery light and instrument cluster
Hey All,
I am the proud new owner of a 2019 Grand Caravan GT (16,000 miles). While driving it yesterday, the battery light came on, the instrument cluster would go out and flicker which would also cut out the cruise control and activate the traction control. I got it home worried for obvious reasons. I planned on taking to the dodge dealer (I didn't buy from). When I got into it this morning and started it and drove it for a few miles, all was well. Any ideas? My worry now that if it is sporadic, I'll never get it to the dealer when it acts up. Would this show up as fault on the scanner?
