    Passenger door has locked up and cannot be opened and

    Passenger door has locked up and cannot be opened and can’t be fixed manually. Loud buzzing noise when door unlocked and locked. Very loud road while driving. Can’t close hatch using the buttons. WOULD NEVER buy another one!

    Trouble shooting. Why would a car with only 74000

    This vehicle has been very good for my wife and myself love the hidden storage compartments. Having only 74000 plus miles on it. It is now getting broken in . However, we got into our car today it would not start. Battery was good. Mechanic I am not. It appears to be a censor. Had to call a tow truck to take my vehicle to a car dealer. Will not know the results until Monday, 13th, 2023

    Very Happy

    I bought it used in September, 2018, and it already had 45,000 miles. Was concerned that it had such high mileage after only 18 months but it's been great. Can haul stuff w/out worrying about weather, then put up seats for family. Am at 120k miles now and no regrets. Still very impressive looking vehicle, too. Will keep this as long as I can.

    Hello

    I just cannot see the reason not to have the convenience of a minivan .Automatic lockable Sliding doors to keep the kiddies safe and automatic tailgate..Then you get to use it for your trucking needs..where else can a 4x8 sheet and numerous 2x4s and tools all protected from the weather be transported for your home projects..oh and dont forget the fishing poles you have to bend double to fit in the average pickup or suv...its a no brainer...

    Not with it

    I purchased my 2017 grand caravan in 2019. It had one user, mileage was only 40,000. By 80,000 miles the transmission went out and now the motor started ticking at 92,000. Not worth the headache. This was my first American made car and my last!!!

    Very reliable van

    I don’t understand the complaints about reliability. Our Grand Caravan has 120,000 miles and the only unscheduled maintenance was for CD player. Pretty comfortable for long distance traveling with a consistent 25 mpg highway. Lots of room for people who like to take a lot of stuff on their travels. Would buy this van again
