Town & Country LX 3.3L V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 101,000 miles

This vehicle gave us so many problems. After a headgasket at 100k and electrical issues everywhere, the whole engine eventually locked up at 154k miles after the oil pan leaked on the highway. Wouldn't recommend these to anyone.

Town & Country Touring 3.8L V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 73,000 miles

Bought 2008 Chrysler town and country touring edition, It had a lot of nice features, It rode better than other vans they had available. Bought used. Within a week, I noticed the temperature gauge fluttering up and down. Wondered why I could hear something boil. I checked the radiator cap and replaced it anyway to make sure, added coolant. Hose was hard as a rock within 5 minutes of it running, hose would go soft within 5 minutes of engine shutdown, took van back where I bought it and they checked it, said everything is normal and I can't com pare how the cooling system worked compared to my car. They told me it had a valve in it that let the pressure off. I knew this was a horrible answer. A few months after driving it, a "Y" connector blew apart, they wanted over $100 just for the "Y" connector. I bought a part and it fixed it better than the original. I suspected the head gasket was bad, stopped by a very reputable shop and they told me that it is indeed a head gasket problem and would be quite expensive to fix, was told to drive it since I didn't see anything in the oil or steam coming from the tailpipe, I never got the chance to have it repaired if I wanted to.

Okay, the gasket, I was told ABOUT 2009, (it is on the paperwork at dealership not positive of the date) that the gasket needs to be replaced. I was also told that it was under warranty and to just wait until it goes and then replace it.

Well, over the years, my vehicle seems to burn a lot of oil, wonder why??? Oil is not cheap since it is synthetic!!!!! When I was in there not long ago, I wanted this fixed and inquired about it and was told it is not covered by the warranty and then was shown the paperwork saying so.

However, I did look at the paper to begin with. I just paid for the work I had done and didn't have time to do the gasket that day and they made it seem like it was no big deal. I figured it would go out or I would just fix at another time. Now it is going to cost me! This is not right!
