1996 Dodge Grand Caravan review from North America
"A very reliable people mover!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The water pump went out at 220,000 miles.
We've had to replace the brakes at normal intervals (75,000 to 100,000 miles) and just recently the front end suspension needed parts, but overall it has been an exceptionally clean and reliable car.
General comments?
Very happy with the car.
Have driven it all over the United States and never had a break-down.
Extremely comfortable seats.
We have 4 children; have driven them all over and they are not careful on the seats. Spills clean up easily.
