Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: My wife and i purchased our 2005 grand caravan new two years ago. several weeks ago i found a large puddle of fluid under it. it had 28,000 miles on it. we took it to the local dealership and were informed the power steering rack was leaking and would need to be replaced. it was fixed under warranty. just last weekend i came home and found another puddle under our van. we took it in again and were told it needed a new radiator this time. after the work was finished i talked with the service manager about the power steering rack and he stated they had replaced approximately 100 of them this winter. he said he could not believe dodge was not looking into this more thoroughly. needless to say, i did not take this information as very converting knowing my warranty will expire in about 4,000 miles. *nm
