I HAVE FILED SEVERAL COMPLAINTS ON THIS CAR SINCE BUYING IN 2001 THIS LATEST ONE IS THE HEAT CONTROL KNOB IN THE DASH HAS FROZEN DEALER SAYS BROKEN AND WOULD COST 400 TO FIX, AT THAT PRICE IT SHOULDN'T BREAK AT ALL!CAR NOW HAS 50000 MILES. THIS IS THE SAME CAR THAT WITHIN THE FIRST 72 HOURS AND 200 MILES THE TRANSMISSION WENT OUT. TIE ROD ENDS WERE REPLACED 2 OR 3 TIMES AT 20000 AND 36700 MILES MOTOR ON WINDOW ALSO REPLACED CARPET REPLACED BECAUSE WATER SEEPING IN CAR I AM AFRAID OF THIS CAR. *JB
OUR DODGE CARAVAN SPORT HAS BEEN WELL MAINTAINED AND WE'VE HAD IT FOR 3 YEARS AND HAS ONLY 35,000 MILES ON IT. THIS STARTED HAPPENING AFTER THE 30,000 MILE MARK. WE HAVE 2 SMALL CHILDREN AND WE HAVE BEEN VERY LUCKY THAT NOTHING HAS HAPPENED. WE LIKED THE CARAVAN BECAUSE WE DID NOT HEAR BAD THINGS ABOUT IT. BUT NOW WE EXPERIENCED THESE THINGS AND WE ARE NOT ALONE MAKES ME RE-THINK OF NOT GETTING A CARAVAN AGAIN OR RECOMMENDING IT TO PEOPLE. WE'VE RUN INTO THE FOLLOWING PROBLEMS: FIRST ITEM IS THE POWER DOOR LOCK ON THE SLIDING DOOR. WHILE ON THE FREEWAY, THE LOCK WOULD UNLOCK AND LOCK. SECOND ITEM IS THE POWER WINDOWS ON THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE. I'VE READ OTHERS WHO COMPLAINED ABOUT IT. THE POWER WINDOW DOES NOT GO UP AFTER IT HAS GONE DOWN. AN EFFORT TO GIGGLE IT UP IS THE TRICK. NOW...
THE REAR PASSENGER SEAT BELT BECAME STUCK IN THE POWER SLIDING DOOR CAUSING THE DOOR TO JAM. THE DOOR COULD NOT BE OPENED FROM THE INSIDE OR OUTSIDE. THE VEHICLE IS CURRENTLY WITH THE DEALER BEING REPAIRED. PLEASE PROVIDE ANY FURTHER DETAILS. *NLM *MR
