I'm... puzzled. How could you fail to notice this before you bought the vehicle? Didn't you test drive it?  SignatureJoseph J.

We did test drive it and it was great...but in order to get some of the options we wanted...we had to get leather seats with the electronic passenger power seat...because of this the passenger seats default position is too high...the power controls only front/back and reclining....There is no way one could have known this without sitting in the passenger seat. The driver seat is fine because the seat can be lowered....going to arbitration to try to get a regular seat put in.......Thankfully,we only leased the vehicle..... >> Anyone having serious passenger headroom issues with the 2005 Caravan, >> especially with leather, elecronic passenger power seat.......and if >> so....any luck with Chryser in correctiing? > > try the seat forward or back, or even recline it a bit, my wifes mazda > protege was a pain, kept hitting the ohshit handle with my head. > We did test drive it and it was great...but in order to get some of the > options we wanted...we had to get leather seats with the electronic > passenger power seat. No, in order to get the options you wanted *on an in-stock vehicle*, the dealer talked you into taking options you didn't necessarily want, and sounds like you didn't try out. > no way one could have known this without sitting in the passenger seat. And you didn't sit in the passenger seat because...? > > We did test drive it and it was great...but in order to get some of the > > options we wanted...we had to get leather seats with the electronic [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > > And you didn't sit in the passenger seat because...? Daniel are you being the a.shole you are again??? "We did test drive it and it was great" Did you not read the OP post?? Please grow up and dont feel so threatened by the people on here. abd by all means get a kife pal >> > We did test drive it and it was great...but in order to get some of the >> > options we wanted...we had to get leather seats with the electronic [quoted text clipped - 11 lines] > "We did test drive it and it was great" > Did you not read the OP post?? umm you better re-read also, he said"no way one could have known this without sitting in the passenger seat" which means he didn't sit or have his wife sit in the passenger seat of the van he was "buying" > >> > We did test drive it and it was great...but in order to get some of the > >> > options we wanted...we had to get leather seats with the electronic [quoted text clipped - 15 lines] > without sitting in the passenger seat" which means he didn't sit or have his > wife sit in the passenger seat of the van he was "buying" I figured that the word "we" means his wife and himself, meaning she was in the passenger side/or he was while the other was driving, unless she stayed at the dealer while he drove it and vice versa....or maybe they drove in the back. .(((((.We did test drive it and it was great...but in order to get some of the options we wanted...we had to get leather seats with the electronic))))))))) > Anyone having serious passenger headroom issues with the 2005 Caravan, > especially with leather, elecronic passenger power seat.......and if > so....any luck with Chryser in correctiing? ps.. My wife is only 5'4 and keeps banging her head when she gets in.....then again, so do I and I am 5"8. We are definitely not tall people....I am going after Chrysler to put a regular, non-powerseat in and that will definetly fix the problem, because the driver side is fine...never banged my head once......... > Anyone having serious passenger headroom issues with the 2005 Caravan, > especially with leather, elecronic passenger power seat.......and if > so....any luck with Chryser in correctiing? > ps..

Your failure to try the van for size and fit before signing the contract is Chrysler's fault...how, exactly? Isn't the problem the drawer under the seat. Regardless of the operation (manual or power) I believe the seat cannot go lower because of the drawer. You might investigate putting a drivers seat support frame on the passenger side. But Chryslers not going to pay for it. They make them like they make them and if you don't like it don't but one. FYI.. my Chevy Venture had the same problem. Kevin > ps..
