1995 Dodge Caravan SW review from North America
"If you have cash to waste then this is the car for you"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
We had had our van no more than two weeks when the transmission went out. We took it back to the dealership and they did an overhaul. The day we picked it up it suddenly wouldn't engage in park. We ended up taking it back to be repaired again. Three times we went back to the dealer for the transmission. Supposedly it is repaired now, but it still will stick when you try to put it into reverse. Now the cooling fan module is out. You can only buy one from the dealer so there goes 400.00 bucks out the window. How long that works who knows. I understand that they go out a lot. The brakes keep having to be repaired also. All in all I have lost all faith in Dodge and their products. I wished that I had stuck to Honda. At least they have a proven record on vehicles.
