| Dodge Grand Caravan in Alberta, Canada Jun 2016 - Sep 2023 | |||
| 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. | ||

| Aug 2013156000 mi | electrical problem with power windows | ||
| Jul 2015169300 miUS $120 | AC system held vacuum, so we recharged. Two days later, coolant was gone again. Dye traces showed possible leaks at the valve under the rear passenger side wheel, and perhaps in condenser. No further work yet. | ||

| Jun 2016175000 mi | AC doesn't work, turns out most lines are corroded, repair cost would be over $2000, a substantial portion of the car's value, so I probably won't do it. Disappointing in a vehicle less than a decade old. | ||
| Feb 2017181000 miUS $625 | Coolant smell, steam emerging from wheel well. Replaced water pump and (preventively) the thermostat. Also noticed that it needed front brakes, so got new rotors and pads. | ||
