Sounds like a bad clockspring there is a safety recall on those see your dealer
you should be able to get it replaced for free
The safety recall number is D17 it covers all '98 through 2000 caravans with a lifetime warantee on the clocksprings
"The clockspring on about 1,290,000 of the above vehicles may lose the electrical connection to the steering wheel mounted electrical components. This could cause the driver’s airbag, horn, speed control and/or steering wheel mounted radio controls (if equipped) to be inoperative. An inoperative driver’s airbag will not deploy, which can result in increased injury to the driver in a frontal crash."
