problem #1

Jan 142012

Caravan Grand Caravan 3.8L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 150,000 miles

I bought the van used and it ran great, for awhile. then it began to miss out so i tuned it up ,that really didn't help . So i had diagnostic work done , told it could be crankshaft sensor or camshaft sensor, replaced both $350.00 , didn't fix it . So i did reseach online and found it could be cracked flywheel ,it was , $650 later it runs great again . Just can't get it through my head how a steel plate inside a transmission could crack it's not like i'm drag racing the van, mechanics involved said it is a money maker for them, happens quite a bit . How could dodge not recall this , obviously bad flywheels , hope this helps someone so they don't have to go through all the bullcrap i did. thanks for letting me vent.
