1999 Chrysler Town and Country 2 Dr Limited Passenger Van Extended

Review

I have been driving a chrysler built minivan since 1994 (including dodge and a plymouth) while they all share the same platform the town and country limited is by far the best built and most comfortable van I have had. I have been in 34 states in my vacationing travels in the past 10 years have never been broke down or had any issues, all but 2 of my 6 vans have had over 100,000 miles on them, we currently have 5 of them in my immediate family (mom, sisters and brother in law) Also, I am a certified master mechanic with 15 years at a chrysler dealer, now independent shop owner 3 years.

Favorite Features

the 10 speaker infinity stereo, heated seats and ease of seat removal for added cargo space (for the 100 pound pooch)

Suggested Improvements

none this vehicle had it all

1999 Chrysler Town and Country 2 Dr LXi 4WD Passenger Van Extended

Review

We have owned a '99 T&C LXi AWD for four years. For around town it is easy to drive and the Infinity stereo is a treat. On road trips around the West the interior space is great especially taking out the mid-Capt chairs and putting the boys in back. With the leather Capt chairs in, the T&C is a nice transport for two couples with a night w/out the kids.

Favorite Features

Heated leather seats, stereo (Infinity) and easy driving.

Suggested Improvements

Engine noice. We know that the transmissions don't last (we owned a 1997)- it would be nice if they aged better.

1999 Chrysler Town and Country 2 Dr Limited Passenger Van Extended

Review

It's great, but it requires lots of maintenance and repair. It's our second Chrylser minivan. The first was a 1996, which had a tremendous amount of faults with mechanics and electronics (though in it's defense, it was a first model year). Going into this purchase, we opted for the extended warranty. First the good: it's a supremely functional, easy & fun to drive van with excellent power and handling. Very comfortable. The Limited version is well equipped with luxurious options. Down side. We bought the extended warranty for $1800. Chrysler has performed $5000+ in repairs over the 4 years/70,000 miles that we've owned it: suspen., trans., elect., a/c, trim, belts- some more than once!

Favorite Features

Seating: Heated, Leather, Quad Format and Removable, Pleasure to Drive; Dual sliding doors; mileage is 18-25 mpg (just like the sticker said); functionality; style; acceleration & handling; 3.8L engine is smooth and powerful

Suggested Improvements

Mechanical Reliability of this minivan is severly lacking. Memory seats & mirrors don't hold positioning- ditch the concept. Speed sensor failed twice-killing speedo and locking trans in 2nd gear. Self-leveling rear struts also failed twice. Heated seat element failed and then was recalled!

Review

The headlight lenses are so foggy its like having flashlights taped to the fenders. I've noticed many, many Chrysler products in this area with the same problem. It has been recalled four times, but no recall was for headlights.

Favorite Features

Suggested Improvements

Make the headlights out of glass, not plastic.

Review

Almost 2 years with my LXi and I can't complaint. Luxury and internal features are great. Excelent performance and comfort are the key combination. I'm pretty sure I will be buying a 2005 model next year.

Favorite Features

Sound system, heated seats, space, powerful engine.

1999 Chrysler Town and Country 2 Dr Limited Passenger Van Extended

Review

This van was given to me as a gift from my mother...Who bought it from my aunt, a loyal Town and Country owner. It now has 61,000 miles on it, and the only problem I have had is two recalls which were both fixed by the dealer within 4 hours, and at no charge, and an AC hose leak. But considering it's age, it is an excellent car! I am in college, and the space and versatility are perfect. Although the engine isn't the strongest, it is exceptionally smooth and provides enough power when I need it. And the space is an assurance for safety...My mom didn't want me in an SUV just yet, and the T&C's size made it perfect. I fit my entire dorm inventory in it!

Favorite Features

Space, luxury amenities, smooth engine.

Suggested Improvements

More power, please! Minor reliability issues, and build quality.

Review

I did NOT want to be a " minivan" Mom, when I was looking to buy a larger car in 1998. I test drove the Chyrsler T&C and fell in love with the luxury and comfort.... I was 7 months pregnant.. so comfort was important and sensitive at this time. I have had great success with this vehicle. Loading playground equipment to towing my camper for camping trips. The AWD has been wonderful in New England winters.

Favorite Features

Heated front seats, towing package...as I tow a camper for vacations. Plenty of comfort and room.

Suggested Improvements

Heated steering wheel would have been nice in the winter time to go along with the heated leather seats. Other than that, I have LOVED this vehicle. Thank You Chrysler!!

I've owned this vehicle since new. It has never given me any problems and runs beautifully. The gas milage is as good as it said on the window sticker. No mechanical work has ever been required.

Favorite Features

roof rack, leather interior, heated seats, luggage room, handling and ride.

Suggested Improvements

I like this vehicle so well that I bought another new one in 2003.

Review

The MiniVan by Chrysler was a great vehicle, I traded a 1997 Grand Caravan ES for my 1999 Town and Country; both serve their purpose as family haulers with a nice degree of comfort however,now that we have 2 kids in car seat ages, it is cumbersome to travel with both. Stow away seats unfortunately came to late for this model.

Favorite Features

3.8 L engine Internal space for hauling

Suggested Improvements

Transmission noise Cabin external noise Rear air condition outlets noise Rear A/C outlet controller; either too fast or too slow... can not get mid settings to work
