I didn't want a mini van. I loved my Durango. We needed something newer that would fit the family more comfortable. After test driving the van I knew that we found something. They didn't have the color I wanted to the dealership found me what I wanted. I have been reading other reviews about things needing to be fixed and having a hard time getting them fixed. We had a problem with the windshield not being sealed all the way. We had no problem getting it fixed. Maybe people should be a little bit more understanding that it is the first year of a new model. There will always be problems that need to be fixed. If you treat the people with respect you will be treated better.

I bought this vehicle for my wife in May of 2008. Better gas mileage, haven't seen it yet. 3 months old and approx. 3,000 miles radio would lock up. Chrysler replaced radio. 1000 miles later radio did the same and transmission was leaking. Chrysler said that they could not replicate the radio and that they just tighten the trans. pan. They wanted it to happen and let them see the problem. They said then that the software may be bad then. But wanted to wait and see what happens. Now while driving at night, at 11800 miles, all electrical flashes off, including headlights. Scaried to drive it now. Won't buy this product again. Family vehicle or family death trap?

I love the van and it is a great fit for my family. It is the second Chrysler product for me in 20 years. The only issue I have is the van will not hold itself back going downhill regardless of selecting low gear at the top. The brakes will be gone in no time, we live at the top of a serious hill. I expected the 6 speed to handle this, very underwhelmed with this aspect.

My 2008 with luxury option package was my 5th Chrysler product van. Other than a very minor rattle in one door, it was totally reliable for the two years that I owned it. A flood in Florida has unfortunatly caused the van to be a right off. The incredible versatility of this van is the reason I will definitly buy another. The 4 litre engine will provide ample power although the 3.8 served me well. Economy not bad for a vehicle of this size. Dealer service has been good in both Canada and Florida.

I never though I would lease Chrysler but I leased two mini vans one in 2006 and another in 2008. 2008 van is so far the luxuriest with stow & go, leather, DVD etc. Odometer clocked 21500 miles, no trouble. One surprise for me is front brake pads worn out totally at 20000 miles. one recall for radiator fix. Other than that, I have very pleasant experience with this car. consistently good mileage on highway (26.5) and local around 18mpg. With AC, playstation 2, radio I think that is a good mileage.
