1990 Dodge Grand Caravan Transmission Q&A

  • What happens when you "ride" your Dodge's brakes? Keeping your foot on the brake pedal or lightly but consistently pushing it down can lead to transmission problems. Keep that in mind when driving in hilly terrain and remember to use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can I tow in a Dodge Grand Caravan? Think twice before volunteering to tow your friend's moving trailer, no matter how small it is. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your Grand Caravan’s towing capacity. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your Grand Caravan is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • How often does my Grand Caravan transmission fluid need to be checked? Maintaining your Dodge Grand Caravan transmission fluid is one of the best ways to maintain your transmission's health. A general rule of thumb is to have your transmission fluid checked and changed about every 30,000 to 60,000 miles, but that timeline can change if you're hard on your Dodge. The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
  • Can my Dodge Grand Caravan leak transmission fluid? Yes. Dodge Grand Caravan transmission fluid can leak as time passes, which may lead to transmission problems. Transmission fluid leaks are often caused by worn or damaged transmission components, such as the transmission pan, cooler lines, seals, or housing. An overfilled transmission may also be behind your transmission fluid leak.
