What owners wrote
Automatic light switch is defective, lights come on at night and run battery down. This is a 2005 caravan and only 41000 miles on it. The fuel pump went out today. We were driving down the street and it just died in the middle of the road, almost got us run over. At over $25000 you expect a car to last longer than 10 months. I will not buy another one! The dealer said after 36000 miles its not covered. That's bull!. Now its gonna cost us $500 or more to fix just the fuel pump, not the defective lights.
Van stalls after fueling. Every time you fill up the van, the van will stall for no reason. It will restart within a minute or 2. It will then have no problems until the next fill up. Reading reports on the web, this is happening on all dodge and chrysler vehicles even causing some to stall on train tracks. Never had a problem with the van until I hit around 100k miles. All other reports on the web are identical. Chrysler dodge should recall before someone dies
