These Chrysler vans have one big problem. It's poor quality solder they used throughout the vehicle. If you pull the dash apart, and resolder everything (heater control wires, instrument cluster, radio speakers, etc.), they suddenly becomes great vehicles again. I picked mine up for a thousand bucks, and it now runs as good as a new one. Mine has the 3.8 V-6, and it's still awesome. I did have a shop change the rear spark plugs and wires for me, however, because at age 62, I am no longer willing to be a contortionist. Edmunds asked me to update this a year later. It's still running strong with minor stuff going sour. The oil pressure sensor gets frozen every morning in this Montana weather, and an annoying alarm goes off until it warms up. The sliding doors often freeze shut until it warms up, too. Wishing for Spring.

Called it the Auto Zone mini van, cant think of one thing I had not replaced after only 50,00 miles. Finally the tranny went. asked my mechanic for a bat so I could destroy the thing and never put another penny on this total piece of crap.
