Expert Reply:
Look like your 2015 Dodge Grand Caravan has a towing capacity of 3,600 lbs so as long as you stay under that capacity with the trailer you tow you'd be fine. If the trailer has a 7-way installed on it with brakes you'd also want to install a brake controller and 7-way in your van.
You will need to start with a 4-way (if you do not have one). For that you would want the # C56331.
From there you would need to convert the 4-way to a 7-way so that you can install the brake controller. For that you will want the Brake Controller Install Kit and 7-Way Adapter part # ETBC7. I attached installation instructions and an install video for this product as well.
For a brake controller I would recommend the Prodigy P2 Brake Controller part # 90885. This is our best selling brake controller because of how well it works and how easy it is to setup.
I attached install videos for the controller and the wiring in a similar Grand Caravan as yours as well.
