Faults:

Two fuel pumps (but this is my fault for letting the fuel run low, the pump is in the tank and is cooled by the fuel)

Transmission at 320,000km (I had a used one put in).

Rear power door locks.

Two alternators, two starters.

Torque converter at 289,000.

Replaced all four fuel injectors.

Radiator and all hoses replaced.

General Comments:

Excellent van, with no engine rebuild I still get the same gas mileage that I did when I bought the van.

The one problem with the Axxess is parts can be costly.

My Axxess though, has easily paid for itself and still takes me to work everyday.

Here's an amazing thing, the van still has the original exhaust system (rusty, but intact and the van still passes air care).

Faults:

I have only had this vehicle for 1 month. I recently purchased it for$500 USD. I knew it needed suspension work and other repairs and just put $1000 into it (struts, ball joints, wheel cylinders, sway bar, brakes all the way around, etc). I was told the engine compression tested well, and mechanically was in good shape. In reading the other reviews, I guess my AXXESS is doing OK - all of the locks work well, A/C fine, original radio and everything interior is in great functional shape. So, here I am. I am looking for info on how to maintain this vehicle and what to expect next :) I would like to ask any other experienced AXXESS owners to email me (is this OK?). My email is mmurv99@lek.net. I am in the US - northeast. Thanks!

General Comments:

So far I think it is a very cool car - I bought it to become my "dog mobile" and because it should get better gas mileage than my full size Chrysler minivan.

Faults:

Door lock poblems.

Door lock problems, seats have worn badly. Seals on the back doors.

General Comments:

I drive this van 400 plus miles every day (m-f) and it has not once in a year let me down, I bought it used at a auction for 1400. Money well spent if you ask me.

Faults:

Timing chain was repaired one year by the previous owner who is my brother in law at a cost of approximately $1000, the next year the timing chain went again and cost us $1000.

This vehicle "ticks", but according to the mechanic this is normal??

The next week the starter went and the cost was another $1000 as they appariently have to lift the motor to get at it.

The only door that works is the driver's side door, the others will not unlock. If you carry passengers, they have to climb over the stick shift, or sit in the back as if they are riding in a cab. This vehicle also loves gas!

I understand that it is a older van and that repairs are sometimes necessary, but this seems to be a very common problem. I would not ever buy an Axxess ever again.
