1993 Dodge Caravan review from North America
"Runs Great sometimes but overall, its garbage!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I've had chronic problems with the brakes. Replaced them and within a month they have worn down dramatically. They also make a real loud grinding noise. Transmission slips every now and then. Oil leaks from an unknown location, however it is thought to be leaking from the head gasket. When cold it has trouble accelerating. It burns oil more than any other vehicle I've ever owned. Engine makes a clicking noise every now and then.
General comments?
I wouldn't advise anyone to purchase a 93 caravan. They cost a lot of money to own and are not very dependable. However they do have some things that are nice about them, including: comfortable seats, roomy, nice handling, and fast acceleration.
