2001 Dodge Grand Caravan Questions & Answers

  • What can I tow in a Dodge? Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how light the load might seem. The added weight can cause issues with your transmission if your vehicle isn't equipped to handle the load. 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.
  • When should I have my Grand Caravan's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Caring for your Dodge Grand Caravan’s transmission fluid is a great way to help it perform. About every 30,000 to 60,000 miles is a good timeframe for having your transmission fluid inspected and perhaps changed. Service intervals can vary depending on how you use your Dodge, so check with your technician first. Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
  • 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.
