The seat and hatch problem sound like an electrical contact issue. They either need to be cleaned or the is a bad connection (maybe a bad wire) The oil light could be caused by a bad oil filter or a cheap oil filter.

I have a 2011 dodge grand caravan that has a 3.6 L Pentastar engine. If this is the engine that you have, then you have 2 cat converters, One in the front and one in the back of the engine, I do not know how many miles you have on this Pacifica, But, if you have over 150K chances are you will have to replace the cat converter, Go to autozone and have them put the scanner on there, you must have the check engine light on,They will tell you which one it is either bank 1 or bank 2, Whichever one it is, you will have to replace the converter, if you have over 150K miles, Then not too long after that the other one will go out, It is an expensive repair, If you go to the dealer and buy the part, you will have to pay $150 to $300 core charge per converter because of the palladium and precious metal inside, You will get it back when you return the old one, Changing the 02 sensors, will not fix the problem. Besides you will see that unless you take out the converter,, you will not be able to get the sensors out, You will not pass inspection with a bad cat converter, but, if it is time for inspection, you may be able to use CATA CLEAN and light may go off for a week or so

The electrical part of the ignition and the key cylinder are both easy to replace. Disconnect the battery first so you don't trip the airbag my mistake. Remove the cowling below the steering column and you will see the ignition switch on the left side. There are a couple of screws that secure it and plug in connector. The cylinder lock must have the key in to remove it. There is a detent pin that must be pressed that is not visible when the cowling is in-place when the key is turned and it will slide out. The Haynes manual is very good with details and there is info on Youtube as well.

You need to replace that latch, I think the return spring must be broken.

Hi, my name is John I will do my best to assist you.

Based on your description, these are my suggestions.

This sounds like a problem with the TPS throttle position sensor, or possibly the MAP manifold absolute pressure sensor. Both are used by the computer to adjust fuel delivery. The TPS signal varies depending on the position of the throttle. The MAP signal varies with engine vacuum.

If you haven't already, I suggest that you take your vehicle to an auto parts store and ask an employee to use a scan tool to check for diagnostic trouble codes. Even if the check engine light is not lit there may be codes stored. Most auto parts stores offer this service for free. Any information obtained can help in determining the type of problem, and help in narrowing down the possibilities. Write down any codes, and fault descriptions for future reference. It is advisable to call your local store first to confirm that they are equipped to test your vehicle, and offer this free service.

What Transmission Solenoid did you replace ? Pressure control solenoid ? Shift control ? P0522 code is not saying oil pressure is low , It's saying the PCM is seeing sensor pressure low !

Near the rear of the transmission in the side of the housing it will have wires that plug into it . It measures the speed of the out put shaft from the transmission in relation to the the wheel speed sensors and relays this information to the PCM or VCM .
