2003 Dodge Grand Caravan review from North America
"Disappointing"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Since the day I drove the van off the lot, it has been "home to visit" one too many times...It's a good thing I bought the extended warranty, or this vehicle would have been the ultimate bank breaker for me and my family... It started at 25000 km with the transmission "missing" went accelerating, which diagnostics keep advising as "nothing wrong"; the steering column assembly has been completely replaced; the brakes and rotors have been replaced; the entire front end rack and pinion (?) has been replaced; there is an ongoing mystery with the A/C - it provides cold air when it feels like it and they can't figure out why this is not working properly... I am just soo sorry I bought and not leased this vehicle... would love to hear from anyone else experiencing A/C problems (the mechanics can't seem to solve this problem and we are literally melting away)...help!
