“2001 Chrysler Town And Country limited, back windshield wiper screws came apart during a rainstorm and broke the windshield. It has to be replaced. I have had this vehicle since 2003 and have spent thousands of dollars on major parts. I cannot afford a car payment, but I am worried what will go next. Maybe something that would cause catastrophic injury. Daimler Chrysler needs to reimburse some or all of these expenses.”
NHTSA complaint #10417720, filed 2011-08, 149,964 miles“I have researched this with people at work and on online internet forums to find out this is a recurring problem with Chrysler power windows in their vans. I am going to replace the motor myself as it seems the dealerships are taking full advantage of this and charging very high replacement repairs.”
NHTSA complaint #10234806, filed 2008-07, 76,000 miles“My 2001 Chrysler town & country suffered a complete transmission failure. I bought this vehicle new in 2001 and thought I was buying the best mini-van for the money. However, I've had nothing but problems with this vehicle. Power windows have failed, power sliding door has failed 3 times, power lift gate failed, air bags caused a check engine light to come on ( replaced under warranty). All of these were minor in comparison to the transmission, which cost me $3078 to have rebuilt. …”
