The 2005 Dodge Grand Caravan has 2 recalls, the more serious being a conversion van seat defect where a weld at the seat base pivot pin can break and injure the occupant.
The second recall affects the front crash sensors, which can become inoperative and prevent the airbags from deploying in a collision. This recall is limited to vehicles originally sold in or currently registered in certain states, primarily in the Northeast and Midwest, where road salt and moisture exposure appear to be a factor. When the sensors fail, the airbag warning light comes on to alert the driver.
