Faults:

I personally have had very little problems with this car.

I recently went back and for to Ohio twice within a month. The pan on my transmission had become loose sometime before this without my knowledge and as a result my transmission was loosing fluid. The hardship of the mountain travels so often in a month caused the transmission to slip. I parked the van for 2 months until I could afford to fix it. We drained the fluid and changed the filter and that is when we discovered the pan was so loose that if I had continued to drive it, it would have fallen off. Now that we have done this the transmission is wonderful again.

Because the van sat so long I am having hesitation and not enough gas flow problems. But as soon as I run the old gas out I am confident that this will no longer be a problem.

General Comments:

This van has been a wonderful addition to my family. We can all sit comfortably and still have room for the luggage.

The seats aren't hard to remove, although it does require two people (just so you don't injure yourself, I have done it my self, but my back paid for it later).

This van rides very smooth. It is like riding in a big car. It is very easy to drive.

My van has only a four cylinder engine so it does take a hardship going up the mountains. I will buy another Caravan, but I will make sure that it has a bigger engine.

Fuel mileage even with it being almost 6 years old is still very good.

I love this van and I would recommend it to anyone.

Faults:

Replaced the rear bearings at 200,000 km.

Replaced the belt tensioner at 300,000 km.

General Comments:

This has been a very reliable vehicle with very few mechanical issues to report.

I drive a lot of miles and considering the high mileage, it has been a very cost effective vehicle to own and operate.

Many problems that I have heard from other Caravan owners tend to be issues related to poor preventative maintenance or overall vehicle abuse.

Faults:

The serpentine belt has broken (actually shredded) 5 times in the last 50000 miles. The first change was at 90000 miles (and it was fine then) and now I cannot keep one on it for more than 10000 miles, if that long.

General Comments:

The serpentine belt and tensioner problem on this van cannot be solved by at least 2 different garages or by Chrysler. No one can explain why the van will be running fine, then the belt basically self-destructs. No advance wear or anything else warns you that is getting ready to go.

Faults:

The serpentine belt has slipped off 2 times in the last 60 days. Both times it was raining and the most recent time was on a major highway. This results in the inability to control the vehicle as the power steering no longer engages, the engine begins to overheat and vehicle must be shut down immediately to prevent damage...
