The fuel pump on our 2005 Dodge Grand Caravan had to be replaced due to cracks and leaks which left a strong fuel odor along with the loss of gasoline. The fuel pump should have lasted at least 100,000 miles but it did not. When I searched online, I found that quite a few owners of the same vehicle had this problem. The sub par parts are costly to replace, especially when considering it was no fault of the owners.

My wife was driving our 2003 Dodge Grand Caravan to work when it seemed to not be getting any fuel at all. The van then stalled in traffic and would not start. It was towed to the local Dodge dealer to find out that the fuel pump had failed. Replaced fuel pump and fuel filter. Van has less than 50,000 miles on it.

I was driving along at 70 mph on the freeway. Car sputtered and died. I was able to get it to the side of the road before losing all hydraulics, thankfully. It was determined by the local Dodge dealer that my fuel pump had failed and that the van ran out of gas. My gas gauge was giving a false reading. They are replacing fuel pump. We'll see if this problem surfaces again. I hope not. This was distressing to me because, if I wasn't able to get to the side of the freeway, I would have lost all power control over braking and steering. The dealer told me this was a "vendor" problem with the faulty part.

In driving my 1997 Dodge Grand Caravan, I have had several episodes where it stalls with no warning. The first time it stalled was after stopping at a toll booth and in pulling out from the booth it just died. Luckily there was not a lot of traffic as my husband and three small children were in the van with me at the time. Had it been during rush hour or there was someone who was just in a hurry, this incident had the potential to be quite tragic. My van has also stalled sitting at a traffic lights and several times driving down residential streets. We can not seem to figure out what is going on. I have been told that everything looks o. K. After seeing a newscast tonight that spoke of the same stalling without warning issues in other vans I am having my fuel pump replaced. This newscast said the issue was with only 1991 - 1995 Chrysler/Dodge model vans. I wanted to make you aware that it could be related to newer models as well.

My 1998 Dodge Grand Caravan began smelling like gas intermittently in 2002. When the smell repeated itself over the course of several months, we took it to the dealer. The dealer failed to find a leak or reason for the smell. The smell continued intermittently and in 2004, we took the car back again. This time the dealership advised replacing the entire fuel tank at a cost to us of $572. I'm not sure what the labor cost was. They refused to cover the cost of the poor design. They appear to have replaced it with a 2000 fuel pump, which was one of the pumps found poor in an insurance crash test rating.
