While driving on the highway our 2001 Dodge Caravan's transmission completely failed and was not drivable. The engine would rev but the transmission would not engage or shift. The van was towed to the dealer. The van's transmission needed to be rebuilt or a remanufactured transmission installed at a cost of $2000-$3000. The manufacturer would not provide any assistance since the van had 47,000 miles. The warranty expired at 36,000. Recognizing the problems with their transmission, the manufacturer extended the powertrain warranty the next model year to 7 year/70,000 miles.
