Grand Caravan SXT V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 53,000 miles

This is my first Dodge product and will be the last. I have had issues with it since bought (used). Dealership is awful. Yes, like everyone else my door lock are not working properly and sliding side doors are broke along with the rear hatch assembly. All has happened within a year of having the van. Not what I would call dependable.

Again, I am having a problem with my sliding doors. Last year, 1 of the doors was fixed for this same problem. Randomly the doors will reopen when you are trying to close them. The dealer had the van for 2 days and said they can not duplicate my complaint so they will not replace anything. My warranty ends in 9 months and I am worried this problem will drag on until I am responsible to pay for repairs!

Grand Caravan SXT 3.8

  • Automatic transmission
  • 82,000 miles

We just bought this thing,, and the left power door quit working. I know some one who has the same vehicle and theirs has over 100,000 miles and theirs still works.. The door is so heavy, compared to one that doesn't have the power,, And I'm sure it will cost a lot to fix!!!!

Grand Caravan V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 32,000 miles

Power Door stops opening about 6 short of the full distance.
Pressing the open button again does not help.
Manually works ok. Seems like the motor is not strong enough to complete the open process.

Worried about cost to get it repaired.
