1994 Dodge Caravan review from North America
"Poor quality vehicle plagued with issues"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
1996- transmission went out. Repair mechanic stated internal part that is not meant to wear was in pieces, traveled through system, damaged other parts. 1997- 39000 miles, engine began to leak oil, a/c went out, same part in transmission broke, again. Interior headliner started to pull loose, sags. Paint started to fade on roof, rear tail lift, and lid of vehicle. Passenger side airbag leaking, damaging panel-recall did not cover repair. Back seat uncomfortable, unsafe in recline position.
General comments?
Although this vehicle feels and sounds solid, mechanical issues and safety points do not warranty investing in same again.
