Chrysler

I was the service writer/ branch manager for a Mr. Transmission outlet here in Canada. I can tell you without a doubt the Caravan is the number 1, most frequently overhauled unit. In second place were the Taurus / Sable trans. They were just a poorly engineered unit and Chyrsler has scrambled for years trying different fluids ( ATF3,ATF 4 etc) in an attempt to get away from persistent shudder problems and customer comebacks on relatively new units. I wouldn't advise anyone in my immediate family to purchase one , just like the GM vans with the dreaded 3400 intake gasket nightmare. Fortunately when you see enough failures you get to realize which models to avoid.
