  We have a 2007 Dodge grand caravan. Sometimes the blower will not run when we turn on the heat/air. Sometimes hitting a bump in the road or slamming the hood will cause it to come on when it does this. Any ideas.

  This is my first Dodge that I have owned and was hoping someone out there can help. I just bought a 2007 Grand Caravan SXT and the power locks on the sliding doors don't seem to be working. The driver and passenger front doors both unlock with the remote or with the switch on the door but the sliders will not lock/unlock. The sliders will open and close when you hit ... Read More

  Three repair shops including Dodge dealer where I bought my van told me I needed a transmission overhaul on my 2007 Grand Caravan with 52k miles. Cost $2500. Last resort paid off big.

  Hi, I have a 2007 Dodge Grand Caravan with a shudder in the transmission. The gas mileage has dropped down from 21 to 16 mpg. It happens when shifting from 2nd to 3rd or from 3rd to 4th at a slow acceleration. Runs good with a heavy foot on the gas. Someone told me it was the torque converter. I think it is the solinoid shifting in and out of gear??? ... Read More

  I have the same problem with my 2007 Grand Caravan. Took it to dealer yesterday to have rear evaporator replaced and the dvd player checked. Since it's out of warranty, they charged me $85 to look at the dvd player and say they don't know what's wrong with it. They "think" it might be a bad screen but it would be another $300 to take it apart to find out. For ... Read More

  Thanks man, just turned over 6K and had my toe set for free as well as the drivers door adjusted. The touring package is definitely a firmer ride than the non touring. Get the leather if you are a new buyer and can foot the cost. Honda would not quote me over the phone even though I was a repeat customer. So I dumped them. I am a happy buyer so ... Read More

You can operate them with the key remote or the switches on the overhead console but not the switches on the door pillars.

  The Haynes manual for the 2005 Grand Caravan does not release until February 2007. Chilton doesn't have one either. The dealship suggests I order a shop manual for $50 (which would be nice but I need to finish the brake job before the manual would arrive). Obviously brakes are not rocket science. However, caliper torque settings would be nice. Does anyone have a link to an online reference for changing brake ... Read More

  The 2005 DC has definitely more noise at acceleration than the models before. Even though Chrysler claims that they are 16% quieter than the older models. I guess you'll not be able to notice that from one short test drive, but I'm driving both almost daily, so I see the difference. And it's not only me, even Consumer Reports agrees to that. Let me just post you the words from the ... Read More
