1999 Dodge Caravan SE review from North America
"A big piece of junk!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My 1999 Dodge Grand Caravan SE loves to throw the serpentine belts.
General comments?
This van was reasonably reliable until the Serpentine belt fell off and left me and my one year old child stranded in the freezing cold.
It was snowing out and I turned a corner to realize my power steering went out.
At first I thought the pump blew, but once I raised the hood I realized the entire belt just fell off.
I ended up having to buy a new one and it was a major pain putting it back on.
I will not ever buy another vehicle made by Chrysler.
