2002 Chrysler Town and Country EX review from North America

"Cargo and passengers love it!"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Left auto-door has some sort of interlock with the gas cap that stops the door from opening if the cap cover is open. This gets stuck in the Open position and you have to bang on the gas cap cover to release the interlock.

Check Engine light went on ~96K miles, mechanic fixed it once by replacing the gas tank sensor. Fuel gauge seems to work still, so I ignore the light.

Headlight covers got a glaze in the last year, I have tried to buff it out but it's mostly on the inside.

K&N filter moved the gas mileage up to ~19.5 mpg.

General comments?

Going from a full-size van driver for almost 20 years, I find this minivan a delight to drive. It feels so much like a car, my kids both enjoy driving it. Very good power for a 3.8, I tow a 2500 lb trailer-boat to a local lake with it. Very comfortable except that the seat did not lower enough for me, so the door rubs on my knee when I drive. I wish it had more ground clearance.

Very reliable, only a few maintenance problems, the fit and finish is great & the carpeting is holding up pretty well to the brutality of a surfer/skier and his gear.

I love the modular seating, I do all sorts of weird stuff with it all the time. I can carry a whole week's worth of gardening jobs in the back, full 4x8 sheets of plywood, convenient tie-downs, 200 square feet of sod, 6 soccer players, etc.
