#2272 of 2361 Re: Need Motor Mounts [wkndwarrior] by shipo Feb 23, 2007 (7:22 pm)
Replying to: wkndwarrior (Feb 23, 2007 1:23 pm) Hmmm, I'm not sure what has caused your mounts to fail so early, however, I do have a suggestion that will be substantially lighter on our wallet. Have you called a bone yard? If you have either a 3.3 or a 3.8 liter engine, I'm betting that you can probably get all four, brackets and all for $100.   Give it a try and let me know how it works out.   Best Regards, Shipo
#2273 of 2361 gas pedal sticking by jkbiggs Mar 11, 2007 (5:29 pm)
I have a 05 dodge caravan 6cyl automatic 50000 mi. The gas pedal sticks when I first start to accelerate. Sometimes at a stop I have to stomp on it so hard that the van lurches ahead. It only sticks at the top of the pedal, its fine once I'm pass the sticking point. Anybody know the cause of this and how to resolve Thankyou
#2274 of 2361 2000 Grand Caravan AWD makes whistling noise at 3000rpm - any ideas? by filmmonkey Apr 17, 2007 (10:39 am)
I have a 2000 model Grand Caravan Sport AWD. It has 110,000 miles on it and is running really well. I have replaced the drive belt, AC system, battery, tires, rear brakes and exhaust system and am hoping it is now set to run for a few years without major incidents!   Here is my problem - every time I put my foot down to the extent that revs go up to about 3000, I hear a fairly loud whistling noise. It sounds like it is coming from behind/below - ie not the engine. It is not wind noise as I can make it happen at 30mph just as easily as at 70. Does anybody have any ideas what this is? My main question is whether if it is a major problem that needs to be fixed or something I can ignore.
#2275 of 2361 ESC/traction control with '07 Caravan? by aladdinsane May 30, 2007 (4:31 am)
Hi all...   Can anyone explain the fact as to why Chrysler has omitted electronic stability/traction control from the '07 Caravan? Excuse my ignorance on this...but I think such an omission has hurt rather than helped the Caravan, especially the short wheelbase, 4 cylinder model. Not everyone wants or needs the Grand Caravan model, and I say this without dissing any owners of that version. My wife and I rode in the smaller model of a new Caravan yesterday, and I sat up front in the passenger seat. I was amazed at the panoramic view one has from this angle, and turned on to the Caravan thinking it a far more sane alternative to some SUVs out there, in more ways than one.   Please inform!   Many thanx...   Peace!

Replying to: aladdinsane (May 30, 2007 4:31 am) Correct me if I'm wrong, however, I don't believe that any DC minivan has ever had stability control.   Regarding traction control, while I don't know about the 2007 model year, I can tell you that it has typically been reserved for only the higher end vans. Case in point, our 1998 DGC Sport 3.8 was not offered with traction control at any cost while I believe it was standard equipment (or at least an option that we selected) on our 2003 DGC ES 3.8.   As for driving impressions both with and without traction control, personally I don't get the attraction. We live in snowy New Hampshire, and have at times needed to make our way up our driveway (a 9% grade) in some very difficult conditions. The only time the 1998 was unable to make it up in anything less than ten inches of snow (my personal limit for attempting the feat), the traction control equipped 2003 failed as well. Of course I suppose the fact that we had an inch of ice covering everything might have had something to do with that.   In day to day winter condition driving, both vans perform wonderfully, and by virtue of their FWD layout, traction control simply doesn't make much of a difference, if any at all.   Best Regards, Shipo

Replying to: aladdinsane (May 30, 2007 4:31 am) Traction control is an overrated option as far as I'm concerned. I have an '06 Caravan with the 4 cylinder engine. Traction is fine. During the winter months, I use 4 snow tires. Driving with 4 snow tires during the winter gives much better traction than all season tires with traction control, in my opinion. I would not let the absence of traction control prevent you from buying the base Caravan. So far, I have 14,000 miles with no problems. Good luck.

Replying to: herbbeasley (Aug 19, 2006 10:39 am) I just got the same code on a 2004 Grand Caravan SXT about the same milage. What did you find the problem to be? Replies to this message: docbunner (Feb 08, 2009 3:35 pm)
#2279 of 2361 CNA National vs. Chrysler Warranties by jpf Jun 16, 2007 (11:08 pm)
I am looking at buying an extended warranty for my Caravan. The local dealer prefers CNA to Chrysler because Chrysler is tougher to deal with when there are repeated claims for the same part. Has anyone purchased a CNA warranty and had a warranty claim? Were they easy to deal with? Any response (favorable or unfavorable)is appreciated. Thanks.
