1996 Dodge Grand Caravan SE review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Transmission went at 140000.
Serpentine belt went at 98000.
Fuel pump went at 125000.
General comments?
Overall I was very pleased with this van. I never would have expected it to last as long as it did.
With exception of transmission, it was more reliable the second 100m than the first.
Overall I feel I got my monies worth.
