1998 Dodge Caravan review from North America
"Unexpected severe, unsafe problem"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My transmission blew at about40000 Kl.
Serpentine belt coming off under wet conditions.
General comments?
It has been a very nice van in the past untill the A/C compressor was replaced by the Chrysler dealership.
Now the belt keeps coming out under wet conditions.
