Non-MB but frustrating...

Dodge Caravan Tranny leak. Tranny shop peaked under car and said $600 to fix leak. Went to another tranny shop, put vehicle up hoist, pointed to rear seal leak. Fixed for $90.

Dodge Caravan Misfire (I knew it was due to water in gas tank. I knew this because whenever I would put Dry-Gas it would temporarily cure it). Brought it to Dodge dealer. They insisted it was bad plugs and bad wires. I told them that it was water in tank but since they guaranteed it would fix it I let them do it for $250. Next day same thing and demanded my money back.

I just continued adding Dry-Gas until the problem went away (about $10).

Dodge Caravan Air Bag Light ON. Brought it to 2 dealers who wanted 1 hour diagnosis charge minimum. Decided to put it off. Later when I had time, I checked the fuses and noticed the ABS fuse was open. Replaced it and fixed the problem (10 minutes and $0.99).
