1997 Dodge Grand Caravan SE review from North America
"An extremely comfortable, versatile vehicle"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing has broken, but the serpentine belt had to be changed at 45,000 miles, instead of the 60,000 mentioned in the maintenance book.
General comments?
Quite, very comfortable, huge space when the seats are removed.
Very versatile, can carry 4x8 sheets of wood, doors, sofa's, etc., then can carry 6-7 people in very a comfortable setting.
Good visibility, handling and road feel. Excellent crusier.
