We have owned our van for 3 years and have 57k miles on it. So far one set of tires and brakes are all we have had to spend money on so far. There have been a couple of recall/service bulletin repairs, but other than that no real inconveniences. We get 17-19 mpg in normal driving and 22-25 on the highway. Stopping at drive throughs cuts down on the mileage! The only complaint I have is the engine doesn't run as smooth as I think it should, dealer says everthing is OK. I didn't want a MV when we went shopping for a vehicle, but after driving it and checking out its features I was sold. It is a perfect family vehicle and I plan on replacing it with a 2006 Town & Country with stow n go seats.

My van is one year old and to date I have had to replace a transmission shifting sylinoid and the water pump. Delivered with primer only on the passenger door frame & without headliner clips. The courtesy lights on the interior switches do not illuminate on the town and country. This feature, from what I was told by the dealer, was deleted per Chrysler Engineering even though the switches on older models do light up. I have tried to get the power passenger doors adjusted but the dealer states that there is no adjustment allowed. The doors on my old Dodge Grand Caravan were much more quiet. 3.8 V-6 19.8 avg mpg no matter how I drive.

Almost bought a '04 Sienna but too expensive and found the build and interior quality surprisingly poor for a Toyota. The T&C drives better and the a/c is much, much better. Very smooth ride and quiet in contrast to my previous minivan, a Windstar. Hopefully reliability has improved and the 7/70 powertrain warranty gives some peace of mind.

We had to replace the engine at 14,000 miles. Also, nuisance fails like, wheel speed sensor (same side twice), the turn signal won't shut off by itself. Now the engine is vibrating at any and all speeds including idle. It comes and goes without warning. When I tried to get a loaner from the dealership, he had six people ahead of me with transmission replacements, and guess what? They were all Dodge and Chrysler minivans!!!! I'm buying a Toyota. They are one of the only American made vehicles these days anyway.

With 55,000 miles on this van, we have become all too familiar with the mechanics at our local dealership. At least 4 visits for front end work, including replacing the sway bars, bushings, power steering rack, & stabilizer bar. Today it's in for transmission work. I am very disappointed. Would not recommend a Town & Country to anyone.
