[50mhz] RFI and car computer

[Carl]

I dont know about minivans in particular but Dodge full size vans and 
Chargers are used by police and the vans as airport limos, and other 
commercial users with 2 way radios.

Id say MOPAR is well aware of RF and has either designed in immunity or 
offers a dealer kit for various models.

An on line search may turn up some info. Google is your best friend.
