| Description of the problem | There have been many mechanical issues (electrical?) including sliding doors that do not work anymore (they must be closed manually). But the main problem i want to report is rust. Under the wheelwells, under the sliding doors, on the bottom of the trunk hatch doors... It's rusting apart. For a 2007 vehicle this is quite excessive. I've also noticed that other dodge grand caravans of the same marine blue green color have the same exact problem. Has this been investigated? Rusting apart... And it's been happening for a couple of years now. You would think a vehicle wouldn't start to have noticeable and pervasive rust in 7 or 8 years to the point where you are embarrassed to drive it. |
