Oct 201714898 mi | Rear AC/vent system was allowing large amounts of dust in. When rear ventilation system was turned on, visible plumes of dust would blow out of rear vents.

They also fabricated filter(s) for the rear vent to help control some of the dust. My 2016 Dodge Grand Caravan let some dust in, but nothing as bad as the 2017. |

Nov 201310770 mi | Dash rattle repair attempt 2. Demonstrated successfully for shop foreman, but tech could not replicate so no repair attempted...

Jan 201864000 mi | Transmission failed, needed replacement. Close to a dealer, able to limp in. Chrysler paid 100% for the new transmission since there was still 26 DAYS left on the original warranty! Interesting they found the "fluid level overfull and burnt," since this was the original fluid that came with the car when new it should not have been overfull. After removing the transmission they found "ferrous debris" and "pump damaged, torque converter failed." A week after the new transmission was installed, the transmission "range sensor" had to be replaced and this was also covered by warranty. | ||
Jun 201867000 miUS $250 | Replaced leaking under body A/C-Heater line bundle. Cost estimate was $900. Dealer originally said Chrysler would not cover this repair. I insisted that they ask since I had had earlier A/C problems (see prior post) and Chrysler did agree to cover subject to owner $250 deductible. If I hadn't pushed this I would have been stuck with the whole bill! | ||
Nov 202092000 miUS $60 | Some times the car will not start when you turn the ignition key. If you turn the key a couple of times it will eventually start. Dealer could not duplicate the problem. The $60 charge was for evaluation and diagnosis. I've since determined the problem is probably in the ignition switch. If key is turned "gently" the car starts with no problem. I have not replaced the ignition switch since I can always start the car. |

Dodge Grand Caravan in Alberta, Canada Jun 2016 - Jun 2024 | |||
Mar 2022127720 miC $16 | The two lift support cylinders for the rear hatch failed... likely from age and successive extreme freeze / thaw cycles that we have been having here in Western Canada. New ones were ridiculously expensive, so I got a pair at Pick-n-Pull on a low mileage vehicle for $8 each. Tricky to replace because even with the hatch propped fully open with a 2x4, there is still some tension when near fully extended. For safety, I hooked on a tie down strap over the top to the cartop carrier... easy to adjust as well to match up the holes for threading in the bolts. |

Apr 201780600 mi | Apparently linkage from auto transmission selector was not quite engaged and after 20 km it went into neutral during acceleration and the computer showed error which was the transmission shift module or something similar. It faulted as the power to the module is cut when car is in neutral so there might be a sticking cable from the drivers control stick to the auto transmission. I was able to drive the van normally after making certain the transmission is engaged correctly without any trouble. It os possible that a long winter in which vehicle was driven little allowed the linkage to stiffen and not engage as it ought to. We shall see as a replacement of this module is more than the vehicle is worth. | ||
