1997 Dodge Caravan Std review from North America
"Good design, crappy quality"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
This vehicle chews up brakes like there's no tomorrow. We have had four brake jobs already, including two complete overhauls with new rotors and calipers.
General comments?
The functional design of the Van is excellent, but the reliability leaves much to be desired.
