Passenger side air bag exploded. Luckily no injury. Vehicle was not moving. I didn't even know it could do that! I'd like this fixed. Also, two leaks in engine. Oil leak/transmission leak. Is this normal" leaks are ongoing. Another thing: Noticing headlights getting slightly dimmer, then brighter, at night as if some sort of electrical problem" this happens during driving and not driving.

3 yrs ago, fire in engine compartment while I was driving. Could not open doors windows or engine hood. I did have window down when this occurred. Just last week a woman in a car (type not known-) in spokane was trapped and had to be rescued when her car caught fire and she couldn't open door or window. She was lucky a cop busted a window and dragged her out. This is a spooky thing if all cars are like that in a fire.car had died in street.mine ignited at stop light. You have a very hidden problems in these plastic cars. If mine had happened a day later then there could have been a loss of seven young children that were going on a trip along with my daughter who was driving. Scary and no one seems concerned.

Car sometimes stalls once or twice within a few minutes of filling up gas tank, especially in cold weather. This started about 1 year ago and happens suddenly and sometimes in traffic. After driving further the car is ok until next fill-up. A web site claims we must replace the entire gas tank and other equipment. www.topix.com/forum/autos/Dodge-Caravan/tlg43itp0rvgn1ioq.

When I fill the gas tank up, the van stalls after a couple of minutes of driving. At first, I thought that I had gotten some gas with water in it at the gas station. But then it happened again. Then I thought that maybe it had something to do with topping the tank off. So, I don't top it off anymore, but I am still having the same stalling problem.

My 2006 Dodge Caravan was bought brand new from the dealer. After 80000 miles it develop a very bad leak. I took it to mechanic number 1 who told me that the crank shaft has a manufacturing problem - to much end play has occurred and was grinding on some of the components in the engine including the oil pump. I thought he was saying that to make more money so I told him to replace the oil pump which he did. Two weeks later the problem started again. I took the van to mechanic number 2. who told me the same problem. The crank shaft has a major problem in the 2006 Dodge Caravan. The oil drips so much and gets blown on the exhaust and burns - that might catch fire so left it with mechanic number 2. to repair this problem according to the 1st and 2nd mechanics the whole bottom part of the engine has to be replaced and perhaps the engine block as well. Since this is a major problem with the Dodge Caravan 2006 I think it will be fair for the manufacturer to take responsibility.

The van silently stalls. So far it has only happened at low speeds. When this happens it becomes very hard to steer and brake. The first incident was during a U-turn with my 2yr old child and wife in the car. We ended up having to make use of the wheel chair ramp on the side walk. Mechanics have been unable to diagnose and unable to fix and this is still a problem.

After refueling the engine cut off and lost all power in the van while turning into a parking lot. This happens consistantly after refueling. The van will begin to shake then cut off completely. I am able to restart it again and gain full power. Resently, it cuts off after refueling and in the rain.

Van had a sudden shake, than engine dies, (going at slow speed) engine light stays on, changed oil, went to auto shop, used a gas cleaner, engine light went out, but came back on a few weeks later, now engine stalls, or light comes back on often, most of my driving is in town or dropping/picking up off kids at school engine shut off 3-21-13 while driving 30-35 ms, and thankfully was able to get off road without accident. Had it checked and 1 part would be $80 to $125 dollars. Warranty of course is expired, any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated.
