I have had this vehicle for a little over 21 months. All I can say is thank goodness for the warranty. I have had the following problems: Feb-Oct 2008-system computer was out of whack...electrical system in general to malfunction sporatically. I was sent a disc in October that fixed this problem. March 2009-Air conditioning quit cooling. Fixed under warranty July 2009-New brakes and rotors at my expense September 2009-New tires necessary due to excessive wear September 2009-Wheel Bearings needed to be replaced on front of van. November 2009-Oil light came on. Crank sshaft and other problems. Needed a new engine.

I really, really fought with myself over the purchase of this vehicle. Even before we purchased it, the MV was getting terrible reviews. But there was the issue of the warranty. The incredible lifetime warranty that no one else offered. I gotta say, they reeled me in - hook, line, sinker. You know that 3 year 36,000 mile bumper to bumper warranty thing? Somehow or another the wheels and brakes must sit outside of the bumpers, cause my brakes went bad with only 27,000 miles on them. 20,000 of those miles were all highway. Repair to replace? $479 at Midas on a 17 month old car. Think about that.

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.

Purchased used with 18000 miles on odometer. I currently have 30,000 miles and have not experienced and problems. Very satisfied with my minivan. My eight year old and her friends love all of the kid friendly features, especially the satellite TV. Great vehicle for our lone drive auto vacation to Myrtle Beach, and perfect for my long weekend golf trips with three buddies. Love the navigation that give much more information than how to get from point A to B. Really comes in handy when on golf trips in unfamiliar locations and trying to find restaurants, movies, etc. So far so good. Thing negative to report.The best appointed mini van I have seen. Surprised by the many negative reviews.

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!
