1996 Dodge Caravan SE review from North America
"A high priced LEMON"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Two days after purchase had to replace starter.
Dies while driving down the road.
Dies after idling awhile and won't start.
Starts when it feels like it.
Box with fuses and relay switches makes a high pitch whistling noise even after van is off.
Have had in shop numerous times and still not fixed. Last time was 2 days ago and mechanic is baffled.
General comments?
This car is a totally SOUR LEMON.
I own another Dodge Caravan, 1992, and have never had this much problem with it and what problems there was they were fixable.
