Expert: Todd Puccio Date: 7/16/2008 Subject: buying 94 trans sport any known major problems with this vehicle?
Question Hi Todd
I wonder if I could trouble you to inquire whether you know or where I might find out whether there are any well known problems with 94 Trans Sport vans as I am poor as a church mouse and fellow who wants to sell me same really is bugging me for my 92 Dodge Caravan (which I just put new transmission in- completely rebuilt $1300 later)
However I probably should not have replaced tranny in my caravan as it has new emerging problems.
Anything you could tell me I would greatly appreciate
Thanking You in Advance
Donna
Answer Hi Donna:
Well first off that Van is okay...... There are not a lot of issues with them. A few with engine running problems/stalling. They have a few suspension parts that go bad on them like tie rod ends. as a whole the is not bad. However, the van is basically 15 years old now and everything is out the window when they are that old all kinds of odd and wierd things happen to them. I'd maybe look inot something newer or if it's that old low miles on it.
