Review
This was our 4th chrysler/dodge minivan, and by far the worst. We have a file over an inch thick of repair work done on it. Transmission, sliding door, air-conditioner, struts, warped roters, seat heaters went out twice on both front seats, etc. The list is too long. We loved our mini-van in the beginning, but we soon realized we had an undependable vehicle on our hands. We sold it and bought a Toyota Highlander. The lack of 7/70 on the transmission was the main reason. We had always had it and were unaware it wasn't offered on the 2001 model - until our transmission began acting up just after 36,000 miles! Stay away from this model!

This car has been towed 6 times in 3 years. The battery needs to be replaced every 20,000 miles. We have had the radio replaced, AC problems, and window electrical problems. Recently, while driving with my 3 kids, the car just stopped in the middle of the road. Since then, the power control module was replaced, only to have the car break down again. Paid $300 to have it towed back to a local dealer since we were on vacation at the time. Just hope to get it running long enough to trade it in. Will never buy another chrysler....ever! It is a good thing my children and I were never driving on the highway when the car suddently died in the middle of the road - on 2 occasions.

My wife picked out this van 3 years ago for its looks. A year ago we bought her a Sebring convertible and I inherited the van when my Blazer croaked. The van has been great. It has plenty of power, a very comfortable ride, looks good, and has been dependable. I've had to replace the alternator and belt tension pulley but that's it mechanically. It performs and rides noticeably better with Michelins. My only complaint would be the weather stripping on the sliding doors pops off regularly and some weather stripping on the windshield comes loose. As for gas mileage, I am getting 19mpg in mixed driving.

Good Mileage for a vehicle this size- 20mpg. Feels like riding in your living room. A little difficult to back up. Has had several electrical problems.

We bought this vehicle and the A/C has gone out, the TV electrical wiring has gone out and a solenoid in the transmission has gone bad. ALL IN ONE MONTH OF OWNERSHIP. Purchased used for $13K, have now put in $2K more in costs...Should have bought a Toyota or Honda!

Great Vehicle. Smooth ride, power seat gives good legroom for Very Tall driver I am 6'-9". Comfortable for long drives. Very quiet interior. Excellent ride on the highway. Small Engine does have slow acceleration but at does get 26-mpg highway, great for a large auto. Braking is excellent and with anti lock brakes have helped me miss hitting deer.

Good value, rides well, try it on a long trip and you will be hooked. Good pickup for a van. The best vehicle I have ever had.
