We purchased the Sport edition due to the curvy mountainous roads we have to travel, and have found the handeling to be very good for a vehcile that weighs two tons. In almost four years, the only time we've been back to the dealer was due to a loose connection at the transmission fluid cooler. They did acknowledge that it was fairly common to have to tighten those. No engine or transmission problems, and no complaints. We have taken the van on the 2,000 mile round trip between home and Florida several times without incident, but the seats are not all that comfortable after 10 or 12 hours.

We bought this car in the spring of 2002. It had 30,000 miles at the time. We have owned the car less than 2 years and the transmission is shot at 53,000 miles. We followed manufacturer recommendations and had the transmission fluid replaced last year. Didn't do any good. Very disgusted about the whole thing. Over all, I have loved my van up to this point. I know Dodges are known for transmission problems, but to have it go at 53,000 miles?? Buyers beware.

I like so much this van, and I always use this van for travel around Texas, until I sold it, after suddenly this car losses power and stalls while I'm driving, and the dealer said the problem 'cause the tranmission pump is broken because the weather of summer, and they cost me $2025. I have a warranty gold protection until 75000 mil the highest that Chrysler can give, but my car broken in 75500 mil, and the Chrysler doesn't want to responsible for it. I love this car but for living in Texas, it's better say Good Bye for my van!!!

When I bought this car it has 72K and I put another 7000 miles on it. All I can say is it's not real pretty on the inside or outside, but with captain chairs it's a very good family car. It's quite reliable too (try a Windstar, you'll know the difference). It's 3.8L engine took a little less gas then Windstar, and it's quite powerful too. I didn't know that when the car stays a couple weeks outside and brakes get rusty - you have to take the wheel off and smake the drums with the hammer, so I ended up replacing tire, brakes and wheel. ($350lost,put used alloy wheel and used tire). I'd recommend this car to someone who likes comfort, but doesn't have enough money to buy and Odessey or Sienna.
