2000 Dodge Grand Caravan review from North America
"One of the worse cars I have ever owned"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Timing belt went at 68,000 miles.
I had to replace the serpentine belt twice.
Rotors and brakes went twice within less than 5,000 miles.
The rear drum went bad (wheel bearings), the second one is going now.
Major oil leak from main gasket.
Shocks are starting to leak now.
I replaced the water pump as well.
After 1 year of ownership and 7,000 miles of driving, this van was nothing, but a money pit.
General comments?
Comfortable drive, but not dependable.
Too much maintenance in short time, low miles.
