1992 Dodge Grand Caravan review from North America
"I hope Dodge's service improves so I can buy their cars again"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
4 Transmissions is the biggest problem. The third went out around 90000 miles, and was under a partial warranty from the dealer so we paid about $1500. The transmission went again 1000 miles over Dodge's 36000 miles/3year warranty after 1.5 years and they flat out refused to replace it or take partial responsibility for it.
Paint wears awfully.
Poor Handling.
General comments?
I like the car for its comfortability, great engine (173,000 miles!), spaciousness and good gas mileage. However, the episode with our transmission makes me hesitant to buy anything from Dodge/Chrysler. They've lost my trust completely.
