Overview & Reviews

Traction control is a new option, so long as you get LE or ES trim, and an enhanced accident response system will automatically unlock the doors and illuminate the interior when an airbag deploys. Appearance and equipment refinements complete the modest changes to this best-in-class minivan.

• Not the most reliable vehicle on the road.

  1997 Dodge Caravan Sports - 1997 Dodge Caravan

  I purchased my 1997 Dodge Caravan Sport new for $22K in 10/1996. 12 years later, the van has 135,000 miles on it. I heard tons of complaints from consumers about this van but I personally never experienced any problems with the van at all! Is it a coincidence or merely lucky? At 135K miles, the original transmission still shifts smoothly, no electrical problems of any knid at all! All I did was to replace brake pads every 30K miles,change engine oil every 7K miles all by myself. I did change front rotors at about 100K miles. Engine never tuned up, transimission fluid never changed either, AC still works like new and blows ice cold air. Changed 3 sets of tires in 12 years, of course!

  Reliable - 1997 Dodge Caravan

  This car is fun to drive and also reliable as long as you take good care of it. If something is wrong with the car, take care of it as fast as you can, and it will never give you any problems

  My experience with my Grand Caravan SE - 1997 Dodge Caravan
  By L. Daudelin - July 10 - 2:00 am

  Ive been very pleased with this vehicle. Never regretted. I have over 100,000 miles right now and didnt have any major problem. The only one I got was the AC compressor that had to be replaced recently.
