1992 Dodge Caravan 2 Dr SE Passenger Van
Review
Easy to maintain Lasted 252,000 miles and still is going. Never was rebuilt. Comfortable seating, plenty of room. A great car, considering it's sat for over 4 years, and is now going to be my daily driver.
Favorite Features
The space. The fact it's lasted 252,000 miles and still is going! Can get going pretty quickly, too! (3.3 L v6 well maintained)
Suggested Improvements
Stronger transmissions for the 3.3/3.8's Can't really tow much with it.
high maintenance

1992 Dodge Caravan 2 Dr STD Passenger Van
Review
While it is a practical vehicle, there are some design flaws that have proven costly. I've had multiple blown head gaskets (costly repair) that apparently are the result of incompatible metals used in the pistons and the cylinders. There were numerous other repairs, but the heag gasket is the back breaker. I would not recommend this vehicle or any Dodge van from the 1990's.

1992 Dodge Caravan 2 Dr LE Passenger Van
Review
Bought it brand new in 1992 - been through 3 fuel pumps, 1 oxygenator thing; kept losing power (took 7 years to find this problem) 1 water pump and numerous smaller things. It's been pretty reliable for 12 years and 95000 miles. It squeals all the time while running causing considerable embarrassment at lights - transmission is starting to slip.
Favorite Features
Driver cockpit and driving ease - fell in love with it first time I drove it and I still have it. It's a part of me now.

1992 Dodge Caravan 2 Dr STD Passenger Van
Review
We bought this vehicle from a friend who loved it and was getting a good deal on a newer model Caravan. Very few problems and never left me stranded. Lots of seating for our 3 young kids (and their friends) although very cramped in the back for adults.
Favorite Features
Changeable rear seating. Built in child seats have been useful even when our kids outgrew them (occasional young riders). Good driving visibility
Suggested Improvements
More leg room in back. More vent/temperature control. Better sound ststem. Less road/air noise... Floor to ceiling 3/4 " plexiglass soundproofing behind front seats and one way intercom to give parents some needed peace and quiet (just a suggestion...)
GET THE 4 CYLINDER!!!

1992 Dodge Caravan 2 Dr STD Passenger Van
Review
this is a very reliable van with cold a/c and even though it's not very quick, it is very reliable. 150,000 miles and the 2.5 liter 4 cyl. engine runs like a top. I've heard the 6 cyl. is plagued with problems!
