Used 2005 Dodge Grand Caravan Consumer Reviews
Excellence!
I love this thing! Super value and all the storage I could ask for. The kiddies love it and the wife, well, who cares what she thinks. Nice rig for SURE!
2005 Dodge Grand Caravan SXT
Dependable for our needs. Especially such passanger/cargo configurations. Poor city fuel mileage during hot summer. (15/16) Due to using A/C. At this point with 20 gallon tank is a frequent gas station visits. Reasonable city fuel mileage during cool weather. (17/18) without using A/C. Satisfaction Highway mileage! (20- 25) Excessive brake dust all over the wheel and excessive tar spread all over the lower panel of the van's body which lead a weekly van wash. This increase the risk of paint chipping whenever such as gravels should happen to chip all over it. (Due to curve design on lower side of the van and tires are able to cause mess over it during on the road trips.)
DODGE MINI VAN
this is my sixth van and we really enjoy it. Very versitile , reliable with excellent warranty. The handling is exceptional in all weather. my only complaint is changing the left hand front signal light requires major problems. I had to take my van to the dealer and for a $1.00 bulb it cast me $60.00 plus US$ for the bulb change. I feel I should beable to change this bulb myself . This is the only complaint we have
Very good for the price.
We've had the vehicle since January. Got it home, opened the sunroof and it wouldn't close, wiring was kinked, but they fixed it very quickly and We've had no problems since. We get about 23- 25 mpg on the highway, but only 12 to 12.5 in town, (I'm not a lead foot either.) This is the SXT with the Special Edition package, which was nice since it had everything we wanted, nicely discounted. Only complaint is that the spare tire is under the passenger seat, so the seat can't be lowered. I'm 6'1" and my wife is 5'10" and neither of us can sit in the passenger seat without reclining it. (I'm not a big fan of sunroofs, it was part of the package.) Imports we're $6 to $10k more for similar van.
Great Buy/Great Value/Great Van!!!
My husband and I love this van. We did a great deal of research when looking for a new car. We also liked the Honda Odyssey but found that the extras in the vehicle were NOT worth the added expense! The Dodge Grand Caravan is a spacious, economical van while continuing to be a thrill to drive. A huge step above the 2004 Grand Caravan!! We highly recommend this van to anyone!!!
