Nice ride, reliable transportation. No problems in 7 months and 6000 miles. Owned a Nissan Quest twice previously and the Freestar is every bit as good and better on some features.

I purchased every option available including full airbag canopy. There's only one thing that I can not pass and that is a gas station. We have driven this van as easy as possible and the best I ever achieved was 13 mpg. The average is 12 mpg. With gas prices these days, I would say that this spoils any positive things I would have to say except for one. It's safe. Sorry, the 4.2 L is a flop. In one year it's lost a bit more than 50% of it's purchase price (huge depreciation off the lot!) and it's cost us big bucks in original cost and gas. Big thumbs down for depreciation rate and lousy fuel economy. I'm very disappointed with out van.
Nice van

We purchased my Freestar Used from a dealer. Have owned Grand Caravans and Voyagers in the past. I LOVED the Freestar at first-then it wore off down to I really LIKE it! It has been very reliable in the past 18 months, never a repair or problem. It is fairly comfortable except for my teenage son who is medium-tall and can't get his legs comfortable anywhere in the back. That being said, The van is dependable and versatile. We have hauled lumber and pets, loaded it down to go camping. I would probably go back to Grand Caravan if looking for another minivan
Freestar SE... give me back my windstar!

The seating arangements in this van are terrible. Don't buy it if you have more than two kids. The middle seats don't move fore/aft. The rear seat is only fit for small kids. Also you will never get 6 adults in this van. The rear seat folds up with great ease, but it would have been cheaper to just leave it out altogether. It is useless for anyone over 4 feet tall. This is basically a 4 passenger vehicle. Test drive this one for at least a couple of hours to make sure it works for you... beware!!!

Owned a Windstar previously, NO comparison! Not only enjoyable to drive, but the bigger engine gives the Freestar new energy.
Not as good as a Chrysler

We have had this vehicle for a little over six months and it has spent six days in the shop. The uphill pull is gutlessn and there is not a lot of torque going up steep grades. The fuel economy hasn't been even close to to the posted estimates at the dealer and the overall ride isn't as smooth as a Chrysler.

This vehicle is wonderful! I have owned Caravan, Windstar and 2 Explorers before this. I do not even have young children to cart around any more but missed all the comfort and roominess of a minivan. As a mother of grown & nearly grown children & new grandma I am probably not a typical minivan owner. The ride is the smoothest yet and everything is at my fingertips. It is fun to drive and I am proud to own it.
