Description of the problem	8/24 - the van was parked in a parking lot with my husband & son sitting in it. Another driver came to claim their nearby dodge caravan & beeped open his van, at that point our wipers started going full speed & the fluid shot up. It stopped for a minute then started going full strength again with the horn going non-stop, the lights all started flashing, & the doors all locked. The key fob was in the ignition but in the off position. My husband tried unlocking the doors with the key fob (pulled out of the ignition), tried using the indoor unlock button but all was unsuccessful. We were able to manually open the doors from the inside. All of this kept going for about 5 mins until i climbed in the back to open the side doors to air out the car & get my 2 year old out. When i manually unlocked the driver side back door everything stopped. We were able to drive home without further incident that day. 8/25 - we were driving back to chicago when the wipers did the same thing but nothing else. 8/26 - i was driving to work when all the doors unlocked & all the warnings on the control panel lit up. I was able to pull over to the side of the road and when i started driving again the rpm started going crazy like it couldn't shift gear. I pulled over again, turned the van off & let it sit for a few minutes. I was able to continue my drive to work & got home ok.
