1996 Dodge Grand Caravan SE review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Radiator fan relay quit at 36,000. A recall fixed this issue.
Belt tensioner sheared twice (2X).
Belt tensioner misaligned (Goodyear Brand).
Power steering pulley broke for no reason.
Wipers go on and off intermittently without being selected. Bad BCM.
Transmission leaking around 45000. Replaced transmission pump seal twice (2x) and is still leaking. Don't know how to fix or what is wrong.
General comments?
Van runs fine except for some problems that pops up unexpectedly.
