The rear passenger wheel is locked up

The rear passenger wheel just locked up for no apparent reason on my 2006 Dodge Caravan. It worked just fine the last time I drove it, but today as I went to put it into reverse to back out of my driveway it made a strange noise and then that rear passenger tire would not spin. The van moved backward with some pressure on the gas since all the other wheels were working as normal, but that tire will not rotate. It only drug the rocks in my driveway with it. What could be the problem and what can I do to fix it please?

Hi this sounds like you might have rear brake drum internal problems, does the parking brake work ok? what might of happened is that one of the brake shoes inside the drum/disk might have thrown its covering and has gone around inside the drum and locked the wheel up like the parking brake is on there really isn't anything else to go wrong that would cause that, you will need to remove the rear disk/drum if you can, as it could really be any internal part broken like a spring or the self adjuster...hope this helps please vote

Is there a recall for 2006 dodge grand caravan sxt with rear air conditioning leaking?

I have the same problem with my Grand Caravan 2000 model. I fixed it once where it cost me approx $1500. We travel on a lot of gravel and it is Winter here a lot. Because the lines are right behind the wheel on the passenger side (what a silly place for such and important piece). It broke again anyway and now another $1500. Not!
I did find after much searching some parts on StreetRodGuys.com . It is a couple of pieces that screw onto the lines going to the back....thereby blocking the rear air off. We really didn't use it that much anyway...the rear that is. They say that when you recharge it to use about a pound less freon when it is recharged. Part is around $50. I plan on using R12a which is colder freon than R134a or R12 so should work fine. Parts just came this week.

Makes it much more bearable in the heat.

The passenger side sliding door won't unlock

I assume it has power locks, so I would look inside the door for a bad door lock solenoid or linkage rod is off. If it is not power, I would look for a linkage rod being disconnected or broken
