Used 2008 Chrysler Town and Country Consumer Reviews
Do NOT buy this!!!
I bought this 45,000 vehicle in 6/08. By end of July the air had quit. Took it to get fixed. 2 weeks later I discovered an air conditioner leak that had MUSHROOMS growing in front passenger floorboard. I will send pics if any one doesn't believe this! Also brakes were messed up (crunching sound) at about 4000 miles. Took several times with them saying nothing wrong and finally had to be replaced @ 21000 miles. The all electric 3rd row seat had 2 b fixed b/c motor quit working on one side. The sliding passenger doors don't always close & has to be manually closed. Oh and the brakes are "crunching" again @ 30000 miles. Presets on the Satellite radio only (not fm) disappear & hav 2 b reprogrammed
Nicest Mini-Van I have ever driven
We recently purchased our T&C minivan and I love this vehicle. We ended up using a F&F discount and received a huge discount on the vehicle. Not only do I feel like I got the best minivan on the market, I got it for the best price. I love everything about the vehicle from the exterior style to the interior comfort features. The dual dvd system, sat tv are the best thing one could ever find in a car to keep the little ones quiet. I can now either drive in piece and quiet or listen to whatever I want and the kids can still be happy watching what they want with the headphones. Great feature!

Blown engine
Like the last poster I too took my van on a road trip from Arizona to California for memorial day. At 3500 miles we heard a knock, lost all power and died. After being stranded with our 18month old on the side of the road it was towed to a dealership and we were told the engine was blown. After it was the for 2 weeks getting the small block repaired we drove it home to hear a knock again, our dealer here then had to replace the upper engine (rocker assembly) I have had nothing but a hard time from Chrysler over us being stranded out of state and having to then go back to Cali to get it. And another 4 days here to repair again. I had made one car payment on it and then had 3 weeks of rentals.
Love This Van!
We traded in a 2005 300 Limited and we thought it was going to be hard to find a car that would drive, ride, and have the things we wanted to enjoy trips in but the new 2008 Chrysler T&C Limited we think is by far the best car we have ever owned. Talk about fuel economy, 28 on a trip.18-19 around town. There isn't any foreign car or van that I think would compare to this van all around. I also like the idea my money is staying here in the USA. We need it .This van has enought room to bring everything we need to FL for our winter months.
Great Decision
My wife and I are extremely happy with our purchase! The Town and Country is spacious, convenient, loaded with features-- 2 DVDs, GPS Nav (screen acts as 3rd TV in park), Swivel n' Go. We opted for the manual 3rd row reconfigure; the power feature is nice, but not required since manual reconfiguring is easy. Gas mileage is pretty much as advertised on the sticker (much better than the SUV we traded in!), but could be improved w/ a diesel engine. We test drove a 4.0L in the limited, and it was peppier, but we are happy with the 3.8 (and we're used to an overpowered SUV). Overall, an excellent product from Chrysler! Shoppers- also look at the Dodge Grand Caravan... only difference is looks.
