I own a 2002 dodge caravan,while driving vehicle it suddenly overheated and wouldn't start. Radiator fluid was leaking out from the undercarriage of the vehicle. Inspection of vehicle revealed a hole caused by a weakened tubing wall and mount clip at the weld point. My vehicle had less than 36,000 miles at the time of incident. This incident went unnoticed because of location. Dodge refuses to correct problem complaint #16378324 also a friend of mine had same problem complaint#16376641. *tr

Power steering fluid is leaking. Dealer describes it as "major repair". *tr

We were traveling down the road when another vehicle hit a 800 pound hog in the road sending it airborn and it hit our van bouncing off and landing in the ditch. Our air bags deployed, the windshield smashed into a billion pieces , but then our van bursted into flames totally gutting our van. Had the hog actually came in on us we would have been burned alive as there would have been no way for us to get out. The van went up very fast and we have no clue as to why or what started the fire. It was a total loss. *nm

Dt*: the contact stated the vehicle's brakes had consistent and worsening problems. The vehicle had several repairs and parts replaced, but the problems persisted after every repair. On one occasion, while traveling 35 mph, the vehicle rear ended another vehicle because the brake lines bursted. The vehicle was towed back to the residence were the insurance company sent an investigator to examine the vehicle. Upon examination the investigator determined that the brake system was faulty due to the manufacturer design and the brake line on the rear passenger side needed to be replaced. The repairs were made. The vehicle was than taken to a local dealer, who determined that the driver side brake line needed to be replaced, the repairs were done. The problem persisted and no further repairs were made.

I have been researching complaints about my 2002 dodge grand caravan. There is a problem with the front suspension and steering that have been repeatedly reported, and i have the same complaint. I am experiencing a noise and vibration while turning the steering wheel. The technician informed us there is a tsb for the problem, and the repair cost are estimated at $275.00. The suspension problem is a knocking and rattling sound in the front end. The technician has said the sway bar bushings, and links need to be replaced. The estimated cost for those repairs is an additional $375.00. I have not made the repairs as they were not covered under my warranty. *nm

We were rear ended at 40-45 mph. The front passenger and driver seats collapsed on to the passengers in the middle seats. Because of this accident the vehicle was totaled and all the passengers in the vehicle were injured. The passenger in the middle seat was crushed. We asked a employee at dodge if this was suppose to happen and he said yes. How could this be the right way for the seats to react, shouldn't the seat stay up right so the air bag is by your head. [i really wish someone would correct this problem before there are deaths. *nm

I purchased my caravan in november of 2005. One month after buying it the air bag light stays on continuously. Now the passenger and driver windows sometimes go up and sometimes don't. Why is this happening on such a newer vehicle? Do i have to worry about other electrical problems that will cost me a fortune? Lg,mi. *nm

I was driving on 35 w north bound, in the fast lane going approximately. 70 mph. All of a sudden my conversion van started to accelerate, i tapped my brakes as if i was using my cruise, which i wasn't. The van then slowed a few seconds and then took off out of control, it accelerated so fast so quick, i looked down at my speedometer and i was going over 90 mph at this point, i was pushing on the brake and the tires were spinning and smoking very fast, i was able to get to the slow lane and then whipped onto the shoulder and part ditch with both of my feet pushing as hard as i could and through the vehicle in park the smell, was so strong i thought the vehicle may start on fire we exited as quick as we can and waited under the underpass for help. *nm
