I like this vehicle because of the front visibility and the space availability. That is where it ends. Seats are not comfortable. The AC broke at 50,000 miles and I live in NY where I rarely use the AC. The repair was $900 and the next summer it was broken again. What should have been fixed the first time was not fixed correctly and it cost me another $700. Chrysler Corporation was no help whatsoever. They do not stand behind their poorly engineered product. In the winter, this vehicle is worthless at best and dangerous. It performs poorly even with a tiny bit of snow or slush. Update: I replaced all 4 tires with snow tires ($600.00) and this winter, it does perform better in the snow. I will have the expense every year of switching tires from winter to all season. Another glitch with this vehicle is the tire size. The vehicle has a 16 inch wheel but the book car service shops consult states a 17 inch tire, so when I buy tires, I have to make sure to tell them 16, not 17. I once waited 3 hours only to have them tell me the tires did not fit and they had to order 16 inch tires. Not all 2012 T and C's were created equal. I understand they no longer make this vehicle and have replaced it with the "Pacifica" I will NOT buy another Chrysler. The "stow and go" seats, although and improvement, are not as easy to operate as you see in a tv commercial. To stow or re-seat, you have to move the front seats all the way forward, move all mats, and then pull very hard to get the seat up out of storage. I am over 60, but very strong, fit and active. I honestly can't see some of my age group friends having an easy time of this...so senior citizens, beware. On the plus side, it is a roomy vehicle and with all passenger seats stowed, I can fit a full sheet of plywood or wallboard,which is nice since I can haul this stuff even in bad weather. I also fit a full size couch in it. If roomy is what you need and you don't care about comfort and reliability (hahaha) then buy this van.

Disappointed in navigation system

I think that Chrysler has done it self and its customers a disservice with their inclusion of the Garmin navigation system. Lifetime maps should be included even if it adds to the price. It is a safety issue to not have up to date maps. A reasonable price like $25 wouldn't be bad but I will not pay $149 + to update maps. My TomTom has free map updates and only cost $89. Also all available safety features should be standard. We will be getting rid of our van in a year of so. These are still the only complaints we have. Another problem is that there is no spare tire included. We have had 2 tire punctures in 22,000 miles, fortunately they were in town. The last road trip we averaged over 29 mpg with both city and highway driving. We had an issue with the engine light coming on and it turned out to be the sensor that makes the light come on was faulty. Replaced under warranty.

Huge interior and electronic gadgets

This is an amazing vehicle, The electronic gadgets are amazing and well engineered....to many to list. The stow and go seats allow us to carry bicycles in the interior and allow for huge capacity space. Interior is beautifully finished. Gas consumption is only 'OK' for a vehicle of this size and weight, but I havent tried any long freeway drives yet. It could be better to have an automatic parking brake rather than manually operated.

This is a very dependable vehicle. Maintenance free except for any recalls that may be needed. Plenty of room for cargo and passenger. A little pricey on the new side but would purchase vehicle like this or similar vehicle again.

The vehicle you buy for all the wrong reasons

The Chrysler Town and Country is awful in nearly every single way, right down to the stupid key FOB that makes you feel like a toddler every time you start the van (hint: it's built entirely out of plastic, even the part that goes into the ignition). There are only three reasons people buy this vehicle: 1. They are a die-hard Chrysler supporter or they are under the false impression that it and its sibling the Dodge Grand Caravan are the only way to support domestic jobs (the Honda Odyssey and Toyota Sienna are both more American, according to parts origin, than the Town and Country). 2. They don't have enough money to buy a better van and get the same features. 3. They haven't done enough research to know that there are better options. We fell under the second category. Since we were buying used and the Odyssey and Sienna actually hold their resale value, the Town and Country was the only like-new used vehicle we could afford. After owning it for awhile, I wish we would have just purchased an Odyssey or Sienna with 100,000 miles. First and foremost, it is horribly uncomfortable. The front seats are adequate. Beyond that, you're going to be miserable. It is a traditions that the captains chairs in minivans are like a king's seat. In this vehicle, they're awful. This is because Chrysler wants to sell vehicles on lingo such as Stow N Go because they know they can't measure up otherwise. Stow N Go is convenient. However, it means the seats are thinly cushioned and oddly inclined so they can fit into the floor. The back seat is even worse. I'm 34 years old and I can barely get out of it once I sit there. It's like it sucks you in down hill, and you're stuck. We have two rear facing car seats and have to put ridiculous amounts of padding underneath the seat for it to sit level enough. The lack of leg room in the third row makes it so, with the car seats, any passenger outside of the first row is going to be miserable. I can't peg it down to one particular thing (other than possibly too high of windows and black seats and trim, but the interior also feels like a dungeon, like you're trapped in some sort of cave. I drive most of the time and appreciate the seat controls and that the steering wheel moves up and down as well as in and out. Despite seemingly limitless driving positions, my neck always hurts severely after long drives. It's one of those vehicles where you just can't get comfortable period. On the road, the Town and Country seems to be relatively quiet and handles bumps decently. The handling isn't great. When I'm locked in at 70 m.p.h. on the interstate, I feel like if I had to attempt any emergency handling, we would end up in a pile of rubble. My Mom, who has never had a panic attack otherwise, has a panic attack when she has to ride in the back of the van because it feels so dangerous. The transmission is clunky and has extremely hard shifts sometimes. The motor seems to be strong and runs smoothly. However, the fuel mileage is horrible. Don't trust the overly-optimistic information the vehicle gives you. Your mileage will almost always be 2-3 MPG worse than the van's information center tells you. Looks wise, the only uglier minivan is the Nissan Quest, but of course that opinion will differ from person to person. If you truly research it (and believe me, I over research everything), a minivan is safer than most vehicles. Therefore, the Town and Country overall is very safe. However, it failed miserably in the IIHS small overlap crash test. That type of crash is rare, but if it happens to you you'll probably lose your leg and maybe your life. I think about that every time I enter the van. Competitors such as the Sienna, Odyssey and the new Kia Sedona all passed this test. If you buy this vehicle, you will regret it. I know I do, every time I climb behind it's wheel. The only people who may like it are empty nesters who are only going to use the front seats. Anyone else who likes it is likely ignorant about the better options that exist.

Never had a problem but now... 65k miles and $6k to fix the engine -- something that's happening all over and Chrysler has no recall. This is the last Chrysler we will buy.
