134K miles and it's been pretty much
bullet proof. 3.0 L engine leaks oil
like crazy (doesn't burn it) but just
keep it topped off. Wife loves to
drive it. Decent gas mileage, plenty
of power.
After 120K miles My Caravan doing great!

Not all 91 caravans bad. I got an SE
w/ 3 speed auto w/ 3.0 liter
mitsubishi engine. 4 spd caravans
had a greater than 20% risk -
problems. Early on - some electrical
problems. Paint is doing well, wax
twice a year. Last year I replaced my
radiator , the distributor, as well as
my muffler 2 years ago.
Transmission original. MPG is 23
mostly highway at 55-60 mph. … Air
conditioning original and doing well. I
changed spark plugs a wires twice.
Throttle body adjustment once a year
and have rebuilt/replaced
brakes/pads twice. There have been
numerous recalls but most were
small . Today performancee same
as at 40,000 miles. One squeak
from the left mid rear panel.
Paint Is A Pain

the paint is almost gone on the hood of
the van which makes it look awful,
besides that it is very reliable.
Don't make the same mistake!

Stay away from these vehicles. 2 known issues - after around 80,000 miles a problem with the valve guides develops requiring the engine to be rebuilt. Next time you're at a stop light near a Chrysler vehicle, watch for a puff of smoke as the vehicle takes off. The paint will come off in sheets on some vehicles due to the use of an inferior primer called Uniprime that breaks down from UV … rays. If you pay attention, you'll see a lot of Chrysler white vans with paint peeling in spots.
