1997 Chrysler Town and Country LXi review from North America

Air Conditioning Compressor replaced.

Hood Latch Replaced.

Ignition assembly replaced.

Leaks around sliding doors.

Power rear vent will not open on left rear, but if you open it with your hand it will close by the motor.

Center captains chairs now move almost to the point of swiveling.

CD player quit in the middle of playing a CD and never worked again, cleaning did not repair the issue.

Seat Memory has never worked right.

Shortage in Headlight Switch.

This vehicle when bought used was beautiful; unlike most cheaply built vehicles this one has the appearance of quality. Once you get three kids (all restrained in Car Seats) inside the van then things start coming apart quickly. While the interior was comfortable the power seats were clunky. For 11 months everything worked smoothly, then after not using the glove compartment, but about twice for maps. The plastic wires that stop it from coming completely down snapped. The headlight switch would, on occasion, cause all of the lights in the Vehicle to go out, the air conditioning compressor went out, alignment would never stay and tires were gone after 20,000 miles the leather seats wore faster than any other sheltered car I've ever seen. Several other mechanical issues that were quite a bit premature. These were, in most cases not warrantied or recalls. An expensive car to maintain to say the least.

Buy a Used car before buying a new Chrysler.
