Dodge Grand Caravan: which year should you buy?

Across the 2011 to 2020 model years, the public record is strongest on the 2020 (90/100). Every year below is scored on its own NHTSA complaint and recall history. Pick the year, not just the nameplate.

Best years to target

2020 90 · 2019 83 · 2015 75 · 2017 74

Every model year, scored

Same math for every year (how we score). A neutral Unproven or Too New stamp means too few owner reports are on file to affirm the year, not that it’s clean.

The fine print: each year’s verdict is computed from public NHTSA complaint and recall records for the Dodge Grand Caravan as a model, not for any individual car. A well-kept example of a weaker year can outlast a neglected strong one. Informational only, so always get a professional pre-purchase inspection.
