Fuel/Propulsion System · at 100 miles · reported Jun 30, 2020
The gas tank has been replaced twice due to cracks at the fuel pump. Gas cap light and check engine light come on. Had it replaced a week ago and it has come on again after paying $1,800.00. When ordered from the dealership they shipped it out cracked and the mechanics had to hunt down another. We have been driving this vehicle not knowing this was a known issue.. Mechanics state this is a common issue with the make and model. How is this not on a recall?
Electrical System · reported Mar 21, 2019
I bought a 2007 dodge caravan, the drivers side window switch seems to be burning out not allowing me to roll the window down on the electric switch and when it does, has a hard time trying to go back up. Then my drivers side passenger van door has a button on top in the front that you can hit it and its suppose to open that side of the van door, the van door also doesn't open from the inside it has to be opened on the outside posing a dangerous issue. But the other switch opens the passenger side van door fine. My 3rd row seats don't want to stay up , they want to lay down posing safety…
Fuel/Propulsion System · at 128,000 miles · reported Mar 13, 2019
After filling up my gas tank I drove away from the fuel place, and I was at a green light making a left turn and during the left turn my van stalled!! Another time after this, directly after filling up gas I was idling at a red light not far from where I fueled up, when my van surged forward! This is apparently an "extended warranty" up to the 2005 dodge caravan for a faulty vapour/liquid separator valve that is built into the gas tank. I contacted dodge and they said that because my van was a 2007 not a 2005 that they couldn't recall it. This is so extremely dangerous and unbelievable that…
Service Brakes · at 100,000 miles · reported Dec 13, 2018
Unknown. After refueling, if you fill up the tank all the way the car wll completely lose power once you start driving. This may happen immediately or after you have been driving for a few minutes. You will lose all power steering and power brakes, making it difficult to control the vehicle. If you have any speed at all, it is pretty impossible to slow down. There are many other descriptions of this problem posted by many people at http://m.carcomplaints.com/dodge/grand_caravan/ 2007/fuel_system/fuel_propulsion_system.shtml
Exterior Lighting · reported Oct 29, 2017
Loss of headlight illumination NHTSA preliminary evaluation #pe10022 low beams very dim, high beams only work when turn indicator is held in a forward location. Without high beams I can not drive at night, holding the high beam on via the turn indicator causes dangerous driving. If driving or stationary the low beams do not work. We purchased this vehicle used in 2015, the problem did not happen until 2016, so we were not aware of the recall, as the recall was considered closed in 2015.
