Faults:

It needed a complete transmission rebuild at 85000km costing $2000 (CAD).

Brake issues: Multiple break noise issues, pads replaced more than usual, rear brake cylinders replaced at 145k.

Air conditioning: freon has a slow leak so had to recharge it every 2 years.

Clock spring (controls horn, airbag, cruise control) faulty so repaired it at local mechanic and then Chrysler repaid my costs once recall was issued and I claimed my expenses. This is the one nice experience I have had with Chrysler.

Wipers come on intermittently with no pattern.

Speedometer while under cruise control just drops to 0 while on the highway and then comes back after a few seconds. Makes you wonder about the electrical system.

Strange looking nuts and bolts have been found under the car which is worrisome.

General Comments:

The interior kept in shape and generally very comfortable for short trips and lots of space.

It never left us stranded, but sure emptied my wallet with $200-400 typical invoices at the mechanic.

Generally this thing is a total lemon and I will never buy a Chrysler again. The resale value is so low it's the final insult after spending so much to keep it alive.

I am going back to Honda - at least it keeps its value.

Faults:

Had the transmission overhauled at 100000. Cost a little over $500.

Recall on the fuel ring. No cost.

Tune-up at 105000. Replace PVC valve, spark plugs and wires, rotor, oil change, and diagnostic/computer. $420.

Need to replace timing belt and all belts for $425.

General Comments:

A very reliable van. I have only encountered these mechanical problem at 100000. Reasonable for wear and tear.

This van drives more like a luxury car. This is great for long trips with the kids and family.

Price is excellent and cheaper compared to bigger cars and other vans.

You won't regret buying this vehicle.

You will see the bad reviews, but if you change the oil every 3000 miles and keep up with the maintenance you won't have these problems. They must have bought a bunch of lemons.

I give this van a A+.

Faults:

This is one of the best vans that are made, if you haven't had good luck with one you are a very poor driver. My wife drives this van and I can tell you she does not baby it, I have the tickets to prove it.

It will still make 120mph when ever you want it to. We tuned it up at 113000 and had the transmission fluid changed also. We replaced the front right caliper - it was a factory problem.

Coffee on the air conditioning controls stopped the air conditioning, not a big deal to fix.

We are going to take it for its 2nd tune up and transmission service at 213000.

General Comments:

1. Trans problems are from not using MOPAR trans fluid.

2. She is a Dodge and they need to be run hard from time to time, don't baby it.

3. For a new car it has out lasted my friends new vans, he is on his second General Motors.

4. Use Chevron 30 motor oil, I have 8 Dodges and only one that has less than 200000 on it, multi-vis is not good oil, too thin.

Faults:

Tensioner arm broke at 20,000 included replacing the belts since they were destroyed (belts not under warranty even if another bad part destroyed them - $150).

Wipers turn on intermittently.

Oil leak, took it to the dealer 3 times before it was fixed.

Engine cooling fans relay stuck at 50,00 miles ($130 repair).

And more things, but I can go on forever...

General Comments:

Since we have the 4 cylinder version it is super slow up even small gradients.

It is very roomy, but I would go with a different van if I went with a 6 cylinder.
