"Worst car imaginable"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Just about everything imaginable has gone wrong with it:

Transmission at least twice.

Anti-lock braking system totally went bad numerous times.

Engine was prone to cease functioning properly, could have gotten a Bentley with for less than I spent repairing this piece of junk. Never had more than four months without it being in the shop.

General comments?

Piece of crap. Wouldn't get into a Chrysler made ambulance if I was dying.

Amen brother! As bad a piece of tin as man has designed. Maybe even worse than my 1974 Fiat 128. But there is some good news. After the ABS was replaced twice and the tranny once at 107,000 miles, it has run fine. 144,000 on it now, and although I won't drive it to the Sierras, it runs on the flats OK. Their original transmission was the cause of many ills, including 107,000 miles of very rough idling. I hope Daimler shuts them down. Two Dodges is enough for one lifetime. And don't get me started on the worst dealers in the Galaxy.

I owned a Dodge Grand Caravan ES 1992 since 4 years. I spent 9000$ CAN on repairs. The worst vehicle I ever had, including a Plymouth TC3 Horizon. I am lucky, the only thing that did not break yet was the transmission. It's the last Chrysler product that you'll see in my driveway.

For all of you who think a 1993 Caravan is junk from my experience it is the owner most of the time and not the vehicle as things start to go wrong a lot of people wait to long or can't even do the most simple maintenence on the vehicle, I believe if we educated ourselves to repair{ oil change, spark plugs etc.}instead of Oh I did not have time to get the oil changed or take it in for a check up when it is due and finally if it was used when you got it the other owner is mostly to blame also. Signed a proud owner of a 1989 Dodge Grand Caravan with 214000 + miles 2.5 liter 4 cylinder and I take care of most all repairswith my trusty 15.00 repair manual. Thanks.
