I have to admit I love this car. I bought it for my wife and kids but I use every excuse to take the car. It rides great. The handling for a van is outstanding. This is my 7th T&C and by far its the best. I have to be honest from the front and side the van looks nice. From the back it looks like a shoe box with tail lights. My kids love the warmers in the back seat. The remote start is great for the cold weather. Being able to load all your cd's into the hard drive is great.

Chrysler should have gone broke

Building vehicle like this they should be out of business. Breaks and tires had to be replaced b4 25,000 miles. The vehicle constantly squeaks and has more interior rattles than a babies toy. The shifter broke off at 18,000, and the air conditioner had a leak at 22,000 and the fuel mileage has never been close to advertised (average of 16.9) and dealership response is lacking at best. One constant problem has been break noise. It has been to several dealerships while under warranty (more than eight times) and they can't fix the problem. They keep calling it dust on the brakws, all I know is it's embarrassing to drive.

Had brake work done early - like the others. Have had this work done under warranty so far: replaced radiator cap with faulty seal when overheating, refill freon & replace faulty hose when a/c quit, transmission software upgrades (3x's) because it clunks in/out of gear. Now has been in the service shop over 2 weeks for "Major engine problem" and failing wheel bearings. Also have had some minor electrical problems. Problems with door sliding (or not) open/close, that I forgot I need to tell the service guy until I read these reviews. Sure wish I'd read these 2 years ago, I'd be in a different vehicle.

Problems, problems and more problems. Read the reviews. We had all the same expensive problems plus more. First month satellite radio and ves system needed replaced. The computer needed reset doors weren't working properly. Brakes, rotors, needed replaced, air conditioning broke needed fixed. Not to mention the hours of driving back and forth 40 min to dealer to have things checked and then fixed. All the rental car fees I had to pay and the pure inconvenience. I don't think I have spoken to anyone who has not had the same problems. Do yourself a favor and do not buy this van.

Bad, bad, bad brakes!

Two sets of front disc and rotors in 26,000 mostly highway miles (6 cross- usa trips)! Dealership acknowledges problems with brakes but states normal wear & tear? Check engine light has been on for 1000's of miles and they can't figure it out? Great van otherwise!
