Four problems related to side/window air bag have been reported for the 2001 Dodge Caravan. The most recently reported issues are listed below. Please also check out the statistics and reliability analysis of the 2001 Dodge Caravan based on all problems reported for the 2001 Caravan.
Driver's side air bag, the horn and the cruise control do not work. It is quite obvious that these defects are caused by a defective clock spring. This was a matter of recall for the Dodge Caravan and grand Caravan, Plymouth voyager and grand voyager and Chrysler town and country from the 1996-2000 model years. Our car is 2001 model and is not in a recall list, but it is quite obvious to me that the defect was not fixed in 2001 year models. Am I alone complaining about this unfixed problem? thank you, sergei.
Intermittent failure of the driver side air bag while driving. Mainly occurs during right turning events. Light will illuminate (air bag) during a right turn event. When vehicle is driven straight ahead, the light will reset. This has occurred numerous times during my ownership, and does not seem to be weather related.
Contact complained about the recall of earlier models of the same car where the clock spring in the steering column was bad. The steering was not affected . This caused the horn and cruise control to malfunction. The air bag light came on intermittently. Contact called Dodge and told them. He had this problem for the past week.
The consumer was making a left turn, and a semi trailer hit the consumer. The vehicle rolled over and none of the front of side air bags deployed. Ts scc.
