1992 Plymouth Voyager Base review from North America
"Everything a family van should be!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The transmission lost reverse at 137,000 miles, Was rebuilt by Saunders Transmission Service in Argyle NY.
Transmission fluid had metal in it 12000 miles later. Saunders transmission rebuilt the entire transmission without question, and were very accomodating.
Serpentine belt and tensioner were replaced at 196,000.
Started to burn oil at 170,000 miles due to a common problem with the valves. Was repaired.
Front struts and springs just replaced today. A/C was recharged this summer.
General comments?
This vehicle is a fantastic family vehicle. My wife and I decided on it when we had our second son. We felt our '88 Chevy Corsica was too small, and I had a company car, so we traded up.
The van is spacious, rides great, and handles and performs well for a van. This van has been very reliable. We replaced it with a 1998 Mercury Sable Wagon. I drive the van now when I'm not using a company vehicle, and my wife uses it when our Sable isn't big enough, or is being repaired.
The van's interior looks excellent, but the exterior is beginning to rust now. As our Sable ages, it is proving to be not as reliable as the Voyager, and we are considering purchasing a 2002 Chrysler Voyager.
