1992 Dodge Grand Caravan SE review from North America
"I paid $200.00 for it...Can't complain"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Front brake caliper seized up and caught hubcap on fire.
Replaced both front calipers.
Replaced Master Cylinder.
Replaced both rear cylinders.
Replaced inner and out tie rods on both sides.
Replaced front wheel hubs on both sides.
Replaced both CV axles.
Replaced the starter.
Replaced the water pump twice.
Radiator speed controller went.
Radiator fan motor went.
Reverse lights do not work.
Transmission leaks like a _____ and bucks sometimes too.
Cruise control vacuum hoses fell off.
Thermostat housing bolt holes were stripped so had to re-tap those.
Had to replace almost every hose.
Radiator was rusty, but still works.
General comments?
Besides all the stuff needing to be replaced it is a great van. I drove it from FL to CO in the dead of winter and it was pleasant.
