Used 2016 Dodge Grand Caravan Consumer Reviews

Mixed Opinion

I bought my Grand Caravan in August 2021 after my 2014 Grand Caravan was totaled in an accident. The leather/suede seats aren't as comfortable as the cloth seats in my 2014. The engine is loud under heavy acceleration, but I don't care; it has a lot of power from the V6. It has a comfortable ride, and road noise remains low. It's very roomy and can carry a lot of stuff, with clever storage places around the inside. The Stow N Go is very useful, and I like the remote start. You have to have patience with the old and outdated touchscreen. It's slow to respond to inputs, but I can stream music on Spotify surprisingly. Mine has the blacktop package, which I initially thought was OK, but now it looks awful. The worst thing about this van is reliability. I had to have a whole new rack and pinion and TIPM that were the most expensive repairs, and other things like oxygen sensors, wheel bearings, ABS sensors, thermostat, and more. I don't know if 2016 was just a bad year, or most likely I got lemon. Whichever it is, I have to keep it for the long haul and deal with the uncertainties of this or that possibly breaking or failing on any given day. It's not a bad minivan at all, but I would just recommend you do extensive research.
