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.

Good van so far - 1997 Dodge Caravan
By weldon - September 6 - 2:00 amAt 60000 miles I cant complain too much.The 3.0 L engine gets 28-30 mpg highway & the 2 sliding doors are great if you have kids.You can also remove or switch around the two back seats.Some things not so great are : Plastic parts inside that have broken, & the wipers that make a swipe on their own. ( dealership said it is the wiper switch ).The headlights are not the brightest either.Still a good buy for the money I think.

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

Dodge Caravan Sport, NOT RECCOMENDED - 1997 Dodge Caravan
By RocketMazda - June 5 - 2:00 amVan is very roomy, even though it is not the grand caravan. Controls were confusing and hard to get used to sence they were all symbols. Had to replace tranny and differential at 50,000 miles (which is bullcrap) And after that was repaired, the van died 200 miles away from home at a rest area a few days later. I had no power and all the relays were clicking. We treat the fan good, and dont drive it hard. the passanger sliding door comes out of allignment frequently and is very hard to shut unless u push down on it. Passenger side door (front) panel is loose/cracked.

Dependable - 1997 Dodge Caravan
By Dan O. - March 29 - 2:00 amAfter 150 000 km (90 000 miles) this has been a great vehicle with minimal and only routine maintenance. I would recommend this vehicle to anyone for the money.
