2001 Chrysler Town and Country review from North America
"A comfortable and reliable vehicle with annoying quirks that don't affect performance"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Weather stripping is falling off the driver's side slider door.
The fuel gauge is indicating empty after a fill up as the fuel light flashes on and off.
A belt squeaks badly after getting wet or damp.
Slider doors are scratchy rather than smooth when opening them.
Brakes seem to need frequent service.
General comments?
The minivan drives like a car and has not left me stranded. This is important since I have infant twins I transport in this vehicle.
Gas is killer. Now that gas is over $3.00 a gallon, I'm spending $60 per week for 140-155 miles travel. That's 20 mpg.
The standard power equipment is nice and comfortable.
Leg room is a little tight for my 6.25 foot tall husband. The babies' car seat takes about 2 inches from the full setback of the front seat.
