Minivans have lost some of their popularity over the past few years, but the 2019 Dodge Grand Caravan still seems to be a popular option. The automaker claims that “high energy is expected” with this model, but owners disagree. Instead, many drivers are met with defective powertrains, poorly-made seats and dangerous service brakes.

The powertrain is responsible for transmitting energy from the engine to the wheels. It’s what makes a car move. When this system fails, it can cause many troubles.
This NHTSA complaint discusses the problem. “The contact owns a 2019 Dodge Grand Caravan. While driving 20 mph, the vehicle began to hesitate and the contact heard an abnormal noise. Also, when depressing the accelerator pedal, the vehicle failed to accelerate. There were no warning indicators illuminated. The vehicle was taken to [dealer] where it was diagnosed with needing a new transmission and both cylinder heads needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired, but the failures continued. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer multiple times and the transmission was replaced two additional times, but the failures recurred. The dealer stated that they were unable to duplicate the failure during the last visits. The manufacturer was notified of the failures. The failure mileage was 10,716.”
A new vehicle with 10,000 miles should not have gone through three transmissions – ever! This is entirely unacceptable and should never occur, but Dodge doesn’t seem to be concerned about the batch of defective transmissions. Instead, they have washed their hands of any more problems and left this owner with a defective new minivan. Sadly, there aren’t any communications within the company that discuss transmission problems either. “High energy” is great, when it works the way it should.
Considering the 2019 Dodge Grand Caravan is meant to hold seven people, it needs to have comfortable seating, especially for the longer trips. However, that’s not how customers feel about the interior.
Read this Edmunds review. “This car is absolutely awful. This car is the worst thing for humanity since Ebola. Completely uncomfortable. I hate it so much with a passion. This is the second time I have rented this car and both times have been completely terrible. The second row seats made my young children have back pain. No cushioning at all and completely unacceptable. The whole car is completely lacking in decor and features. I have never seen an uglier interior in my life. I personally believe a golf cart is a nicer ride than this car. It cannot take off without screeching at you. The second row doors choose when they like to close not when you want them to close. It’s insane to me that this car is still on the market considering how poorly it’s made.”
Aside from comfort, the seats in the Grand Caravan are quite dangerous. NHTSA Campaign Number 19V759000 states that over 30,000 vehicles have rear seat striker outboard welds that could fail during a front impact. This occurs in both the second and third row of seats, leading to a higher chance of injury or death. It seems Dodge isn’t concerned about the safety of children, as that tends to be the type of people riding in the back seat. For a company promoting “high energy,” you would think they would embrace children. After all, without them, there’s no hope of selling any minivans.
In an effort to prevent accidents, owners hope for reliable brakes that will stop the minivan before a collision occurs. However, the Dodge minivan fails on this front as well.
Another NHTSA comment states, “While traveling around 30 mph, brakes were applied in a ‘panic stop’ fashion – fast hard depression. The road was straight, clean and dry. Visibility was excellent and the view was clear for about a half mile. When the brakes were applied it felt as though the ABS system interfered with braking, causing no actual force to be applied to the brakes. No deceleration was felt by the driver, or any of the other two passengers. Although the brake pedal was fully depressed, the van continued at a speed of about 35 mph for an additional 70-80 feet without slowing, and was stopped only by the vehicle it eventually struck. Distinctive injuries on the driver’s leg created by the debris of the dash panel also reflect that the leg and foot were aligned with the brake pedal and not ‘elsewhere.’ Although this model has a safety recall regarding ‘surface coating’ affecting the braking ability, this VIN was not implicated. Also, this incident did not appear to involve ‘reduced’ braking ability. There was no braking. Other causes are possible, but the best way to describe the behavior of the braking system behaved would be to describe it as though the ABS had disengaged all braking abilities so that the pedal had some feedback to the driver, but no discernable effect on slowing the vehicle. It was as though the ABS somehow turned the brakes off.”
The recall being discussed is NHTSA Campaign Number 18V523000, which affects nearly 155,000 vehicles. It appears that Dodge created braking systems with the wrong coating on the rear brake caliper pistons, which can reduce the performance and increase the chance of an accident. Let’s just hope that the “high energy” created by this minivan doesn’t become so great that it becomes impossible to stop.
Think you have a lemon? Sit back and let the experts work out your lemon case at no cost to you. The law makes Dodge pay legal fees. You may be able to get your lemon out of your life. Every year, auto manufacturers buy back, replace or pay cash settlements to thousands of ‘lemon’ owners like you.

Description | Took our 2019 dodge grand caravan in for a regular oil change. The next day the check engine light came on. After a diagnostic, kb auto showed that 2 cylinders were misfiring. They mentioned that they had recently serviced many dodge/chryslers with the same issue. Further research shows that several complaints have been made. We were told that we could continue to drive the van. If the check engine light came on and continued to blink, the engine would likely shut off and we would have to be towed. We purchased the van in june 2019 with 18000 miles. We have only had it 3 years and a major engine repair is needed. The repaid cost is estimated to be 00. We only owe ,000. This is absolutely ridiculous. The engines need to be recalled. |

Description | Transmission failed while driving on the highway without prior warning and the vehicle had to be towed home. The vehicle had limited power left to pull off the highway for safety though. What I hear when I start and rev the engine a bit is high pitched whining noise and noise of separated or lose components coming from inside the transmission. Research has shown me that this same drive train has been running in chrysler and dodge vehicles for about ten years now and has seen recalls on the transmission for some earlier model years like 2015, 2016, ⦠. This is a big safety issue given that this vehicle seats seven people (families rely on this van for transportation) and therefore chrysler should add this vehicle drive train to the recall list asap. After failing the the check engine light popped up and running it on the generic scan tool code p083b showed up. |

Description | My car was towed away from my parking space and given to a dodge dealer, I coulndt figure out where it was, I finally found where it was , the guy who took it in was already doing repairs and investigating with out, knowing whose car is it, he goes and does a repair not being on what we talked about and does his repair, then he tells me I payy up 1,400 for the repairs he did, before he repaired it I asked him to check the fluids makes sure everything is good and ready so I wont be left in the road stranded, I come back 2 day later cause I take my car for a drive, for 15 mins and head to the same dealer cause oil pressure light and battery light and oil light was on and the person who serviced me saw this when I took it in, before I asked him to check if everything with fluids is up to date, when he first was repairing it and didnt know what was wrong with it, so then I meet him and he says well we cant repair it because we dont know what could it be and the car needs more driving for it to see whats wrong with it, and or you can try coming with warranty, then my car breaks down after I leave the shop test driving it for 15 mins cause he advised me to drive it or get warranty,, instead of checking it for inspection. Then iam left stranded in the road cause of this situation. I take the car back to the same dealer for repair and they say its the battery and starter, and now they saying pay it in this amount of time or my car will be towed away,. All that waste of money in repairs and me coming back and back, for me to have to pick up my car at a tow yard, cause they didnt want to take it in when I had my 2nd visit they, now my car is sitting in my car, I am still financing it , for a car that doesnt drive. And when I call a local mechanic he says my engine is blown up. And its not the battery and starter.. I was young and it felt like I was being robbed. |

Description | Driver side rear passenger sliding door will not unlock or open. Manual lock/unlock lever on door is stuck in locked position. This creates a safety issue if there are rear passengers that need to exit in a crash or other emergency. This van seats 4 rear passengers and having both doors available can be critical. This happened without warning. Through research I found it points to a seized door lock/unlock actuator. There have been prior nhtsa actions on 2015-2017 dodge and chrysler minivans resulting in chrysler extending the warranty period for this issue. My van uses the exact same actuators as the earlier vans. I am fearful that the other door actuator may fail withour without warning, rendering my vehicle useless for transporting passengers. |

Description | The lock actuator on the driver's side sliding door has seized in the lock position in our grand caravan. Using the fob, the switches in the vehicle, and the mechanical levers on the door, we are unable to unlock or open the door. Researching this problem, I see that it is common in 5th generation grand caravans and town and countries and plagues both sliding doors, creating a safety hazard: in the event of an emergency, if both actuators were to have seized since passengers entered the car, it would make exiting the car slow to impossible, and therefore hazardous. I have heard from a mechanic that dodge/chrysler is aware of the issue. There is, to this point, no recall or safety bulletin, and apparently nothing is being done about it, and that needs to change. To this point, our vehicle has not been officially inspected, though all of the symptoms are exactly as can be found in the various reports on the internet. There were no warnings that the part was going to fail/seize. |

Description | I was in line at a fast food drive thru when a strange noise began coming from under my hood. When I went to drive forward, the engine revved but the vehicle didn't move at first. It finally jerked into gear and I proceeded to exit the line and to a stop sign before driving onto the main road. I had no problem taking off from the stop sign but as I was accelerating on the main road, I got up to about 35mph and the vehicle revved again, but this time it stopped moving in the middle of the road. The car behind me blew their horn and ran off the road to a avoid rear-ending me. There was no cel illuminated and no other warning or indication of a problem. I got off the road and turned the engine off. I turned it back on and took the back streets home and parked it. I had the transmission filter and fluid changed, and all was well for about another 200 miles. As I was driving about 60 miles an hour on a highway, I again lost forward motion and the engine revved to about 5000 rpm's. I immediately steered off the highway to avoid a collision. Again, there no malfunction indicator light illuminated. After careful inspection by a certified technician, it was determined that the transaxle oil pump has failed. The vehicle is available for inspection at yours or your representative's convenience. |

Description | The passenger door interior handle cracked off on july 3, 2021. I was exiting the vehicle normally and did not use much force to try to open the door. The lack of an operational handle made it impossible for me as the passenger to open the door myself from the inside. What if there was an accident or the vehicle ended up in the water? I would not be able to exit from my side. I would be trapped. I felt very unsafe. There was no warning of imminent part failure. We ordered a replacement part on july 5th and performed the repair ourselves. The broken part was never inspected or documented. We noticed the part was offered for sale in pairs, which was disconcerting. We ordered a pair a few days later as a precaution. Within a week's time, the driver's side interior door handle also broke off. The handles appear to be shiny, silver, and metallic but in reality are incredibly cheap plastic. Both front interior door handles lasted less than 3 years under normal use. A main concern is that in the event of any emergency, in a panic, a person inside the minivan may use a lot of force to attempt to rapidly exit the vehicle. But you can't pull hard on these interior door handles because they obviously are not very strong and break easily. After the driver's side handle broke, we bought an additional replacement part so that we have a pair in reserve for the next time either one cracks and breaks. Please feel free to contact me if you have any further questions. |

Description | I have my 2nd dodge grand caravan that I have trouble with the automatic doors keep opening and shutting over and over even with something like a body in the way. I had a 2016 that I had the same problems with and had it in over and over the dealerships kept telling me they could not duplicate the problem I finally traded it in for this one and have battled the same problems with this one. I have a damaged nerve in my dominant right arm and the doors will open and shut over and over the only way to stop them is to jerk on the door handle hard this causes me agony for weeks . I am on a permanent 15 # lifting pushing pulling restriction with this arm and I have to jerk pretty hard to get it to stop as I said the pain is severe then for weeks. It doesn't do it real frequently but when it does it is a problem. One time with this van the door shut on me and bruised my arm another time I put a big container of laundry detergent in the door thinking it would stop when hitting something that hard well I had to pull the soap out as it was hitting against it so hard I was afraid the detergent bottle would break.. I have a dodge executive on my case and he keeps telling me he will call me back and does not. I have had both vehicles in to 3 different dealerships multiple times and told the same thing we can not duplicate the problem. Recently my aunt is in a wheelchair and she has a caregiver that women was in the passenger side back door laying over the seat to put my aunts stuff in the van. Thankfully I had the other back door open and was standing there watching her. The door will pop real loud then start opening and closing I yelled for her to get out and she jumped out fast enough not to get injured buy she was laying over the seat that door would have hit her at the waist and could have really injured her had I not been standing there. The door opened and shut over and over until I told her to jerk the handle to stop it and she did do then you have to jerk the handle again. Consumer would like to add that manufacturer |

Description | I bought this vehicle in 2019. I have had an intermittent safety issue even now in 2022. I have taken this vehicle into the dealer 3 different times. Every time they said that they did not see anything wrong. Now the vehicle is out of warranty and it still has the intermittent problem, which is that the right sliding door occasionally does not stay oven when you open it. It opens all the way, no matter if you hit the keyfob, hit the open button above the windshield, push the open button in the back seat, or lift open the handle on the outside of the vehicle. This is how it should work. Unfortunately, several times over the last 3 years it doesn't want to stay open and starts closing by itself - immediately after it opens - sometimes causing panic and sometimes it hits you in the side and just stays there while making a ratcheting noise for a minute. Then you have to manually open or close the door. This defective action of the door would happen sometimes once or more a day and then not happen for a month. We got so used to this bad door system that we hardly pay attention to it anymore. But anytime someone else uses that door, they may get shocked about the door closing again right after someone opens it - and it freaks them out, or worse. The right passenger sliding door did the problem the most ,and the left sliding passenger door also did this mis-action - but not as often. |

Description | On the 2019 dodge grand caravan equipped with remote start via key fob, the following hazardous senario can occur. The vehicle is parked in an "attached" garage with all doors to that space closed. The remote start function can be activated nearby from the dwelling, unintentionally, and without human awareness, since activation of this function only requires 2 clicks of the remote start button within 5 seconds. This can occur with key fob in the pocket, for example, or by other random means. The vehicle, functioning as designed, will start in the enclosed space, and run for up to 15 minutes. Substantial exhaust gases can accumulate in the garage space during this period, with substantial risk of carbon monoxide existing in that space and permeation into adjacent living spaces. This owner contends that the vehicle designers should have anticipated this and similar senarios, and should have provided, by design, a means by which the remote start function can be disabled/enabled as desired by the vehicle owner or by dodge service. Presently, there is no feature to disable remote start. Local dodge service indicated that the only option is a key fob without remote start button. This represents a potential safety issue which should be evaluated by the manufacturer. |

I asked the dealer where I got the van if they were going to fix it. I was told labor and part nearly 0. I feel they should fix free cause it is a danger to people with disavantages. |

Description | I bought this car from dealer of tim dahle and I could not find the spare tire when I checked it. The salesman told me dodge grand caravan does not have spare tire. When I waiting for financial process to pay for it, I checked youtube and found the position of spare tire. So, I asked the salesman to help me checking if this care has spare tire or not. They did not inform me until I completed all process to purchase it. I was told that this car does not have spare tire and this trim (sxt) of grand caravan does not have spare tire. They said only the trim of gt have spare tire. However, that is not the truth and I have bought it before I know the defect of this car. I am not sure if dept. Of transportation is the correct place I file my complaint. But I think there are 2 things I should complain. First, I was not given the correct description of the car's potential risk without a spare tire. The salesman tried to hide the fact about the spare tire, though I asked them to check it for me. Second, all the reports the dealership shown to me did not include the issue of spare tire until I found it. However, the salesman still tried to hide this issue. They explain that the spare tire does not have use in most of time, but I believe it is very important in self-repairing of tire issues, especially in long-distance travelling. And of course, I told the salesman that I would travel from ut to nj in this march. But they still tried to deceive me to believe that this car should be without spare tire. I cannot provide any image because of the position to fix spare tire in grand caravan is very hidden. But they know that it did not have. |

The chair snapped forward with tremendous amount of force. While I was pulling the lever with my left hand my right hand was placed on the seat back.

Description | The child protection lock system no longer functions on my 2019 dodge grand caravan due to the sliding door lock actuator malfunctioning. We only discovered the problem by accident when my wife was able to open the passenger side sliding door before I unlocked the vehicle. While speaking with the manufacturer on 11/5/2020, I was told there was no recall being issued even though there are many instances of this problem occurring in similar vehicles. I am greatly concerned that parents are driving around thinking the child protection lock is active when a child can open the sliding door at any time, even while the vehicle is in motion. I cannot get a photo that shows this problem, so there is no documentation. |

Description | 2019 dodge grand caravan. 3. 6 pentastar engine. 60k miles. For over a year it has rough idle and engine vibration at hwy speed. Misfire on cylinder #2 does not go away. Always returns. Have replaced coils, plugs twice and injectors. #2 cylinder misfire still throws engine light. Went to and called dodge dealer several times about problem. They claim there are no known issues, problems or recalls. They keep trying to tell me it's bad fuel and I should use higher grade fuel. I've done that as well and the misfire on #2 cylinder is always there. The vibration gets so bad sometimes the entire vehicle shakes like your sitting in a massage chair. My wife refuses to drive it anymore and I'm really frustrated that dodge refuses to acknowledge there is a defect on this engine that is causing this and should be covered by them. It's only a year old and should not be having this problem. |

Description | 7/21/2020 - driving through a left turn on a main road and lost all electric- steering, brakes, dashboard. Coasted to the left turn lane. Applied pressure to brakes, but was still rolling. Had to throw it into park to stop an accident from happening. Turned van off and restarted van. Drove to the gas station across the street and had it towed. I had five children in my van, this major safety malfunction could have killed all of us. Dealership had the van for 10 days and claimed one possibility was winter gas still available at gas stations combined with warm weather. Offered no solution other than to pick up my van. I have had this happen to my other dodge grand caravan multiple times until I finally felt like I couldn't chance my life anymore and turned it in. This is a well known, documented dodge issue!! The service agent ignored my requests to look into it. No code shows for this issue and it didn't happen during their drive, so there is nothing they can do. They are selling death traps. Additionally, when I pump gas and my tank is already over a half of tank, the sensor reads full and the handle clicks off. |

Description | We rented this caravan while on vacation in destin. On our way to return it, this past monday, I was sitting on the driver side second row seat. I wanted to recline my seat a bit ,so I reached my left hand down to pull the lever at the bottom door side of the seat. Instead of that being where a recliing lever would normally be, it was the lever for flipping the entire seat up and snapping down the headrest. It forced me into a forward folded position with great force, then the headrest snapped down on my neck. I was diagnosed with extreme whiplash and torn muscles. Im having migraines due to the injury and pain in my head, neck, shoulders and back. My concern is that if a child would have done the same thing it may have seriously injured them or even killed them. This is a very bad design and needs to be reconfigured. |

I was sitting on the driver side middle seat, not sitting back, as the seat was reclined too far for me to sit with my back against the back of the seat. When I was trying to bring the seat back forward from the leaned back position, the head rest came down and slammed into my neck it's as if the mechanism thought the seat were going to be stowed into the floor. I have been suffering from a massive headache since this happened. I will be going to my doctor when I return home, to see if there is any serious injury. There was nothing conclusive in the diagnosis. This needs to be addressed, as it could cause severe injury. |

Description | While traveling around 30mph, brakes were applied in a "panic stop" fashion - fast hard depression. The road was straight, clean and dry. Visibility was excellent and the view was clear for about a half mile. When the brakes were applied it felt as though the abs system interfered with braking, causing no actual force to be applied to the brakes. No deceleration was felt by the driver, or any of the other two passengers. Although the brake pedal was fully depressed, the van continued at a speed of about 35mph for an additional 70-80 feet without slowing, and was stopped only by the vehicle it eventually struck. Distinctive injuries on the driver's leg created by the debris of the dash panel also reflect that the leg and foot were aligned with the brake pedal and not "elsewhere". Although this model has a safety recall regarding "surface coating" affecting the braking ability, this vin was not implicated. Also, this incident did not appear to involve "reduced" braking ability. There was no braking. Other causes are possible, but the best way to describe the behavior of the braking system behaved would be to describe it as though the abs had disengaged all braking abilities so that the pedal had some feedback to the driver, but no discernible effect on slowing the vehicle. It was as though the abs somehow turned the brakes off. Consumer stated this was a rental vehicle. My understanding is that the vehicle did not have any specific warranty service *and* that the warranty service was not indicated for this particular vin for the only 'braking issue' that seems to affect this make/model.*jb |

My 2019 dodge Caravan after 88,000 miles needs a new transmission and they are on back order so for 2 months now I have been out of a vehicle.
I bought my 2019 Dodge Caravan brand new in November 2019. It is now January 2023. I need a new catalytic converter, but I don’t think catalytic converter should be replaced after three years.
I’m on my third, Dodge Grand Caravan that before 70,000 miles seems to be having engine issues. I bought it used with 62,000, the warranty company is saying if there’s any sludge or a couple other things even though it has a lifetime warranty on the engine and drive train, they aren’t going to cover it. What the heck? I used any money I had to purchase this vehicle and a small warranty.
The one before this had issues I was told the warranty would cover and they stalled and stalled and even though it had the lifetime warranty on drive train and engine the Dodge Company, nor warranty company would stand behind it. At close to 200,000 and no results, I traded it. The one before this, I bought new and it had all the warranties, however; once the dealership started working on it just to change what should have been simple things, they had it more than I did all summer and Dodge wouldn’t stand by it either. What the Sam Hill is wrong with Dodge? They are awlful for standing by their products and warranties but have no problem just ripping faithful customers off. I’m done!
My 2019 Dodge Caravan with 55K miles needs a new transmission!!!! What? I really hope they take care of me!
My grand caravan has engine problems after 71,000 miles and the radiator has a leak. It’s going to cost 5200 to fix
My 2019 dodge grand caravan with 65250 miles, and absolutely no rust or corrosion had the emergency brake cable snap, while I was trying to use it. Although I purchased the Mopar protection plan, they are denying me coverage for the parts and labor on this 1000 dollar repair. I am curious if this has happened to others.
