How do you access the spare tire on a 2012 Dodge Grand Caravan?

The spare tire on a 2012 Dodge Grand Caravan is typically located under the vehicle, in a compartment beneath the rear cargo area. To access it:

1. Remove the cargo floor cover: This is usually a piece of carpeting or a hard plastic panel. You might need to lift up on it from the edges or there may be clips or latches holding it in place. The exact method will depend on whether you have the Stow 'n Go seating system (removable seats).

2. Locate the spare tire access panel: Once the cargo floor is removed, you'll see a panel covering the spare tire. This might be another removable panel, a hinged door, or a combination of both.

3. Remove the access panel: This often requires lifting and/or pulling.

4. Lower the spare tire: There's usually a mechanism to lower the spare. This could be a simple crank, a cable, or an electric mechanism (less common). Carefully lower the spare to access it.

Important Note: The exact location and access method might vary slightly depending on the trim level and any optional equipment your Grand Caravan has. If you're having trouble locating it, consult your owner's manual. The manual will have diagrams and specific instructions tailored to your vehicle.
