After driving this mini van for 6 years, I finally replaced the transmission (after 220,000 miles).
Developed a rear seal leak (oil) around 160,000 miles..
Power steering leak developed around 150,000 miles..
This mini van is the best auto buy I have ever made, and it continues to run as new, even with 240,000 miles.
I drive it about 700 miles a week, average around 25 MPG, and repairs are minimal, with exception of the $900 transmission replacement in 2008 (first and only replacement)..
If a deer did not run out in front of me on the highway (front end damage to radiators, grille, light assemblies, hood etc), I would not hesitate to continue driving this van.. but because of the repairs necessary for inspection... I am forced to replace the Grand Voyager..
I too have a 95 Plymouth Grand Voyage, my wife that is, that has had a transmission change several door locks bad, but for 230,000 is still going strong. Just started rusting about 2 years ago, but is still minimal compared to my 2001 Durango. The van is more comfortable for long drives and is Great for vacationing.
