What are the known NHTSA recalls for a 2013 Dodge Grand Caravan?
The NHTSA has issued 24 recalls affecting the 2013 Dodge Grand Caravan covering equipment, transmission, windshield, TPMS, electrical systems, airbags, hood latch, seats, fuel tanks, brake systems and more. These recalls include issues such as clogged Kidde fire extinguishers that may not discharge, a transmission pump that can seize causing loss of motive power, windshields installed with expired primer that can displace in a crash, TPMS software errors, and occupant restraint control module software problems affecting airbag deployment.

How much does a 2013 Dodge Grand Caravan recall repair cost?
Manufacturer recall repairs for the 2013 Dodge Grand Caravan are completed free of charge to the owner when performed at an authorized dealer. NHTSA recall remedies such as replacing a faulty occupant restraint control module (ORC), reprogramming TPMS, replacing a windshield, or replacing a transmission pump will be performed at no cost under the recall program. Kahlo Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram provides these recall repairs with OEM parts and factory-trained technicians; we also offer service financing if you need other non-recall maintenance at the same visit.
Can I get my 2013 Dodge Grand Caravan recall fixed at an independent shop or do I need a dealer?
Recall repairs must be completed by an authorized dealer to ensure OEM parts, factory programming, and a documented manufacturer remedy — Kahlo Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram is a certified franchise dealer equipped for this work. Some independent shops may perform non-recall repairs, but only an authorized dealer can guarantee the recall remedy and register the repair with the manufacturer and NHTSA. To protect safety, warranty, and resale value, we recommend scheduling an appointment with our certified technicians; you can schedule appointment online or contact us for guidance.
How long does a 2013 Dodge Grand Caravan recall repair take?
Most recall repairs vary from quick fixes under an hour (software reprogramming or TPMS updates) to several hours or a day for module replacements or windshield service. The exact time depends on the specific recall remedy — for example, flashing an ORC module or reprogramming TPMS is typically faster than replacing a transmission pump or windshield. When you call or schedule service, our advisors will estimate turnaround time and offer loaner vehicle or shuttle options when available; ask about current service specials and service financing for any non-recall work.
Does an open recall affect my 2013 Dodge Grand Caravan's trade-in or resale value?
Yes — unresolved recalls can lower trade-in value and deter private buyers because most dealers and buyers check NHTSA records and VIN history for open recalls. Having recalls addressed at an authorized dealer like Kahlo Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram documents the repair and preserves resale value; we can complete recall work prior to appraisal or sale. To protect value, consider getting recalls resolved before trading in — you can start a trade appraisal at our site: sell your car online.
Can I fail a state inspection because of an unresolved 2013 Dodge Grand Caravan recall?
Some recalls (airbag, windshield mounting, brakes, fuel leaks) relate directly to safety and can lead to a failed inspection depending on state rules and severity. Fixing recalls at a certified dealer ensures repairs are documented and completed with OEM parts, reducing the risk of inspection failure and insurance complications. If you have an upcoming inspection in Indiana or nearby counties, schedule a free recall check with Kahlo Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram and we will advise on required repairs and timing.
