This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
The transmission does not shift gears if the air conditioner is on. The air conditioner turned all the way up will blow out air as if it was on mid way. The wind shield wipers come on when the turn signal is activated, which causes me to buy blades more often. The brakes seem to lock up when the ground is wet. You can hear metal hitting together, and the car continues to roll. My sister-in-law, and one of my daycare moms had the same problem, but they were not as lucky as I was it caused them to rear end another vehicle.
While traveling up the interstate experienced sudden transmision slippage, and engine check light came on.after manuevering to the shoulder of the road I checked the transmision fluid level which was good and also checked the diagnostic trouble code(mil code 45).tried to start off and the transission slipped very bad but finally stayed in second gear allowing me to return home.I understand that this is not an isolated issue, there have been many Dodge Caravan owners who have experienced similar transmission problems. I am currently trying to see if this is a current recall issue or if there are any particular steps that I could take to try to help it become a recall issue.
Fuel tank: Fuel tank leaks when it is full, it does not leak when it is not completely full. Check engine light comes on and stays. Dealer has replaced fuel pump on gas tank, and the they also replaced the fuel injector pump on the engine. The problem is still there.the are going to replace the entire tank assembly.
