(B) Most of your other issues are battery related. The most likely cause is there are tiny batteries in the alarm siren under the cowl in front of the windshield. When they get old, they leak acid and short out the siren and that runs down and weakens the battery. You can just unplug it or replace it. No one pays attention to the sirens anyway.
(C) The top problem is most likely a sensor. What exactly does it do / not do when you unlatch it from the header? What does it do / not do when you push the button?
(D) Your control lock pump is fine unless you have gotten water in the trunk. What are the symptoms for questioning the control lock pump?
The Chrysler dealer has no idea what they are doing except getting money from you.

I think Zach and Michele's tech day is the answer!
I don’t know what the dragon is, but I live less than 10 miles from the airport!
