I turned on my van, started down the street, looked down to see what speed I was going and saw that the speedometer wasn't working. The needle is on the other side of the pin as if we were going 160 mph and does not budge. When the van was turned off, it did not return to the other side of the pin. The speedometer has never been a problem for us in the past. My van is a 2003 and this should not be an issue on a vehicle that is only 5 years old.

We just had our 2003 Dodge Caravan fixed after the check engine light had been on, and it started to sputter. Now it was working fine and the check engine light came back on, then the speedometer, gas gauge, heat guage, and digital mileage display all turned off and went haywire. The digital display turned off, while the gauges all floated. All over the place. Last time it was the oil pressure sensor and the vacuum line for the fuel system, and before that at another recent event with the check engine light, it was the gas cap needing to be replaced. There are only approx. 48,000 miles on the minivan. We've had to replace the rotors twice since we got in in October 2004. In the two years we've had it, we've needed to get rentals twice because of this. Stay away from the 2003 Dodge Caravan...if you can't pass it up, get the extra coverage.
