5 sets of brakes including 2 brake overhauls in 68,000 miles.
5 V-belts.
1 exhaust leak.
2 sets of front struts.
1 wiring problem.
2 broken or jammed sliding door locks.
3 factory recalls.
Design flaws with the front brakes. 3 recalls.
NEVER buy factory brake parts. After market rotors and pads are the way to go.
Bought 1997 Dodge Caravan in July 1997. Purchased a 5 year or 50000 mile extended warranty.
Right after 50000 miles the van has a serious oil leak. Took it to a car garage who could not fix it, said it has to have a head gasket replaced. I don't think I should be replacing a head gasket at this time, because the van was brought brand new and I haven't been driving it through unusual conditions.
