2002 Dodge Grand Caravan ex review from North America
"@ 26k loaded to the gills, great value"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
PS pump line, fuel line recall, trans gasket, sway bar bushings.
General comments?
Sway bar bushings...$9.00 at Rockauto.com. Learn how to turn a wrench, it will save you $75.00 an hour. This van is used as a high-speed transport and is a star on the interstate. Lock her on 85mph (that's the limit for cruise, annoying!) and it will run about 4hrs and get 19mpg. Needs 5 more gallons of capacity and a better trans. The electronic trans shifts poorly. If it could tow 5500lbs I wouldn't need an SUV!
