Do not buy this van!!!! i bought it in 2010 with 25,000 miles on it and within 300 miles of having it the transmission died. Chrystler did repair it but i had to pay 500 dollars for it. At 35,000 miles my rear seat did not want to go down for stow and go and is stuck at a half cocked position. not to long after that the other seat is stuck at a half cocked posistion. i have had multiple roof leaks, at sunroof, break problems, rotar problems, tires seem to need replacing to often, i now have a major oil leak, the coolant starting to leak, the window went and got stuck shut, sometimes the heater wont blow on the window, the clock dont work, major delay on the radio turning on and much more

Thankfully I purchased the bumper to bumper warranty when I bought the van new. I have had two engines put in and it still burns 1 quart per 1000 miles. The dealer says that is normal and acceptable. I can't list all the things that have gone wrong with this van. Even Worse it's like pulling teeth to get the dealer to fix it. Consumer Reports gave it the worst rating with all black dots, and they where right. Never buy Chrysler. They are junk and the service they provide is horrible.

Bought at 20,00.00 miles. Have 104,000. 2 sets of brakes. Replaced air conditioning, Entertainment system is unrepairable, needs replaced~ no radio, CD player, DVD player, multiple electrical issues, Replaced 4 Batteries, replaced starter, 2 engine mounts,with two more that need to be replaced,4 calipers, tie rods, and after $900 in repairs last week, drove it 1 minute out of the shop and the transmission went. Needs a new transmission. I've never hated a car as much as this. Chrysler, if you read this I will NEVER EVER buy another Chrysler. Thousands in repairs. LOTS of stress with breakdowns. Do not purchase this van!!!

Deceptive transmission warranty

I bought the 2008 Chrysler Town and Country van because they told me they would warrant the transmission for as long as I owned the car. I had previously owned a 1995 Town and Country van and the transmission went out at 90,000 miles. They assured me that Chrysler had fixed the transmission and wanted to restore their reputation by warranting it for the life of the car. They told me I would never spend another dime on transmission repairs. So I bought the car. At 45,000 miles the dealer told me the transmission cooler lines were leaking and wanted $490 to repair it. Chrysler refused to cover this citing the fine print in my owners manual which doesn't include this part. I asked the Chrysler headquarters how often this line starts leaking at 45,000 miles and they said they never heard of it. And this was one of the $3000 in repairs needed to this van at $45,000 miles. Needless to say, I will NEVER buy another Chrysler. And you shouldn't either. They do not hold up very well. And their sales are very deceptive. I actually believed them and I feel ripped off.

180K and going for another 200K!!!

We purchased this 2008 tc touring with 160K in early spring 2015 and bought it for right at 6,000 I guess bc of the migher miles. After purchasing it we put new yokahama tires H rated for that little extra security, all four brakes ,brake hoses , replaced plugs flushed coolant changed all wiper blades fixed the typical heater hose issue behind the exhaust manifold replaced the rear blower motor and changed the air filter as well as run nothing but Mobil 1 5w 20... I did this trying to start off with the van somewhat reliable so far I notice slight oil usage but considering the miles I'm not complaining it could be seeping from the rear main seal but not enough to make spots on the driveway. I bought an egr valve bc I heard that's a common failure but over all I think if you do good maintenance and replace parts as needed these vans can be great machines for a family. They are roolol affordable and just handy. We plan on dropping another engine and/or transmission in it and keep running it for a long time. Age doesn't bother me its more about maintenance and although the transmission does shift a bit goofy but seems to do everything its supposed to lol
