2010 Dodge Grand Caravan Pros and Cons Member5292 We are very pleased with the reliability. In over 100,000 miles we have spent $35 in repairs that are not normal "wear and tear" items like belts and bulbs. The interior had held up well to the hard use that kids, their friends and pets will put on a vehicle.... |

2009 Dodge Grand Caravan Pros and Cons Member3274 Very unreliable as one can tell. Again I paid for a vehicle that is unsafe to drive and in the shop more than on the road.
