SXT?

2003 Dodge Caravan SE Fwd 4dr Minivan (2.4L 4cyl 4A)
We purchased our Caravan late in the '03 model year (there were already '04's on the lot) and paid about $19000 brand new. Our van is labeled as an SXT even though it is actually an SE with some extras. An end of year model change-up? I am really happy with the van and over the past year it has held up well. Only one small problem, the drivers side power window has failed on two … occasions. It seems to happen during cold weather and once the vehicle is warm it is fine again. We looked at Toyota and Honda but both were much more expensive and didn't offer the same features without purchasing big packages. For the price you can't beat Dodge. A very good family oriented vehicle.
never had a problem!!!!

2003 Dodge Caravan SE Fwd 4dr Minivan (2.4L 4cyl 4A)
I got my caravan at 78,000 miles I've only had a couple problems since owning the car. First the O2 sensor went out (kind of an expensive fix for a single mom) and the power steering pump is going out. Other than that it has been a gem. I've driven it in the snow and curvy mountain roads for two years with no issues. The car is now at 130,000 miles and still running even after hitting a … deer really hard.

2003 Dodge Caravan Sport Fwd 4dr Minivan (3.3L 6cyl 4A)
We bought it at 6 years old. We have had it 9 years. It has held up very well. The engine is still going strong. We are having to replace older parts wearing out and it has minor rust spots. The AC leaks on the passenger side floor but my husband puts AC fluid in and that helps. For a Dodge it has very comfortable seats. Three mechanics have told us to keep it and just continue to … replace the parts. We have to say that for being 15 years old it has done us well!
We have a limited number of reviews for the 2004 Dodge Caravan, so we've included reviews for other years of the Caravan since its last redesign.
