I loved my Town and Country for 5 years however in the same week the transmission and engine blew. I had the car 5 years and 3 months. This is 3 months over the warranty. The people at Chrysler customer service are the worst. They give you the run around and offer no help whatsoever. They caused me anxiety and stress in a time where CS people should be kind. They are rude and mean. If you run into a girl named Neekesha she is the worst. This is my last time dealing with Chrysler.

This van has lots of room, but I've experienced repair after repair with this vehicle.

Steer clear of this van!

I seriously regret buying this van three years ago. It has had problem after problem. I have had to fix quite a few major issues. Now the blind spot detection has gone out and extended warranties will NOT cover this defect - it is VERY expensive to fix also. My leather seats have cracked as well. And forget handling in the snow. The van will not accelerate on any slippery surface - makes for an awesome driving experience in the snowy midwest! I traded "up" from a base Honda Odyssey to the loaded Touring L - I should have kept the Honda :(

It's OK

This vehicle seats are HORRIBLE! Mines are cracking up worse than a vehicle I have had for over 10 years. The car space is good! Looks great and overall can be a great car for a person with a family.

Never again!

Not happy! This was our First new vehicle. I had owned a Dodge Grand Caravan and absolutely loved it, so I thought I would buy a Town and Country. Everything I loved about my old van they removed. [non-permissible content removed]. We have had our vehicle in to a different dealer many times. It feels like when we get it back, something else has been broken or it wasn't fixed right the first time. Many electrical issues!

Now i'm fully convinced that this van is the most reliable vehicle i have ever kept in possession...and this was my 4th.With 89,000 km (almost 56,000 miles)under its hood driven for more that 3 years now in wild Canadian weather condition,this town and country is very reliable without giving me any headache at all.The only parts that was fixed was the brake mechanism that cost me around $500,not bad for more than 3 years use.My previous Honda Accord gave me headache almost every year due to brake problem,My Toyota Sienna has power problem and my first van a Pontiac Montana has a/c problem that cost me $1000 to fix and change the corroded system,that after only 6 years of using it.

Worst Vehicle I've Ever Owned!

Purchased this van new and it's spent more of its life in the shop than on the road. Numerous malfunctions and numerous recalls, all of which required down time and inconvenience. I'll never buy another Chrysler product!!!!!

LOVE OUR MINIVAN!

With 3 kids now we needed something with more room. We exhausted every other option, from large cars to Suburbans and everything in between. Trying desperately to avoid becoming a "minivan family," yet find a semi-economic solution, we even tried the smaller SUVs with the tini-wini, worthless 3rd row seats. After all that waisted time and effort, we finally brought ourselves to just "look" at some minivans. Opening the doors for the first time on our Town & Country Limited was as if the clouds in the sky separated and Heavenly, magical rays of light shown through. We were in love instantly and have never looked back. Rides like a luxury car and hauls everything we need in total comfort.

Severe Brake Issues - This is a dangerous vehicle

Purchased a 2011 Chrysler Town and Country Limited Edition back in Aug of 2011. At around 20k miles we noticed that the vehicle would shudder and the steering wheel would shake when applying the brakes. It seemed to be worse when going down hill. Initially we thought it was the anti-lock brake system, but it became much worse over time. Took it into the dealer and they said all 4 rotors were warped and need to be replaced at $800+. When I asked if they would cover under warranty they denied me. Took the vehicle to another shop and they noticed the chrome on the rims was burnt off from excessive heat. Also said the calipers are locking up. Chrysler refuses to replace the rotors.

Very nice minivan

I bought a 2011 Town and Country Touring new (the base model among the three models)in August 2011.Currently it has 40,000 kms (25,000 miles)mileage.So far so good.Everything works well despite the unpredictable climate here in Ontario,Canada.The only time i bring it to the dealer is for the scheduled oil change at 8000 kms(5000 miles).I bought it for CAD$ 30000 but loaded with lots of luxurious features.To name a few :power left and right sliding doors,power rear door (liftgate),power windows including the quarter windows,satellite radio,remote engine starter,push button engine starter,intelligent key(i don't need to bring out my key or fob from my wallet to open or close the doors,the doors will just unlock automatically as you touch the door handle and a push button near the door handle to lock the doors but of course it is also equipped with a keyless feature when you are meters ways from the van,a rear camera,tow n go feature ,dual air control,a 110v outlet.One more thing i like this van is the 283 hp powerful V6 engine,more power than the Odessey,Sienna and other minivans in the market.

We purchased the van January 1, 2011. Our second son was born February 25, 2011. The first issue happened one night as we were driving home March 5, 2011. Our van has been at the dealership since February 19, 2013. A week now with no return date. Today we are being provided a rental today for 5 days and will get an extension as need until our van is returned. This is the worst vehicle we have ever owned. We own a Toyota with 250,000 miles which is still going strong.

It Died

We purchased our Town and Country brand new loaded with all options less than 6 months ago. After 3000 miles it 3 electircal problems that was eventually fixed when the dealer discovered a broken wire from the factory. After 10,000 miles the motor has blown. We are currently seeking a new van or compensation from Chrysler. Van has been in the shop for 33 days. Cheaper van imports with more items but do your research before you purchase this van. Dodge created the minivan see tons of them still on the road, just not ours!!!!

Not So Happy!!!

I bought my Town and Country new. I have had it for 3 months and the Heating and Air Conditioning Motor is blown. It's winter time, thank goodness its not too cold. This van makes a lot of noises. I can't exactly pinpoint the exact location of the noises, due the noises in different areas on a daily basis. Loud road noises on freeways. Poor gas mileage. Worried about taking it on ong trips due to all the noises it makes. Not sure what else is going to break on it. Wish it had cup holders on the middle doors. Could be priced lower due to all of the noisiness we have to put up with.

Took possession of the Van on Friday......Saturday it went into limp mode and overheated a little (250°). Made it home and called the dealer to warn them it was coming back tomorrow. Service told me it was the Powertrain Control Module (PCM). I requested that the Oil & Filter be changed. They providede me a loaner at no chare. They performed all tasks as needed there was no problem with the Dealer or Service, All seems well will up date @ 1000 miles.

We took our T&C Touring on a road trip from Philadelphia suburbs to Myrtle Beach and we couldn't be more pleased. We averaged 27mpg at 70-75 mph on cruise, in economy mode. Advised by dealer to take out of economy mode when accelerating/merging onto highway. It helped. Very comfortable, plenty of room. We bought Touring 'base' model. Wished we had gone for some of the 'bells and whistles' - DVD, etc... My last few vehicles have been SUVs...this is so much more comfortable.

2011 T&C

We just got our 2011 T&C Touring last week. What a huge improvement from last year. The new engine is peppy, the interior is gorgeous. The updated suspension and handling is awesome for a minivan- not floaty like the rest. Drives like a sedan. All back seats fold into floor and the third row can flip back for tailgate seating. The competition can't match features for price. I'm proud to be a minivan & Chrysler owner.

Best T & C to date

This is my 4th T&C, last was a 2007. Like many I was turned off by the cheap looking 2010. I have had my 2011 for 2 weeks now and so far am very impressed. Before buying I also drove a Seinna, it also is a nice van but I don't think it rode any better than the T & C and I didn't like the interior as well. The real deciding factor was stow and go which I would really miss.

Love it, love it, LOVE IT!

Move over Honda and Toyota, the Chrysler Town and Country has arrived! I've had my 2011 Limited for 2 weeks, and I love it! It has all the bells and whistles both the Toyota and Honda offer, but I didn't have to pay thousands for the extras. The price to value ratio was astounding! I looked at the Odyssey and Sienna first, was gonna buy the Sienna, but I just couldn't finish the deal. The Chrysler is more attractive, more comfortable, a better drive, a much better value, has a better warranty, and, I must say, gives me more peace of mind than the Toyota, for sure. Do yourself a favor and check out the Town and Country before you buy, you'll be glad you did. I know I was!

Leased a 2008 Chrysler T&C, just returned and leased the 2011 version. Was looking at the Sienna, could not trust a company with more recalls than GM. The Odyssey, notorious for A/T transmission failure, please note 2011 is the same transmission. Fortunately, the 2008, served it's purpose, HOWEVER, we had to replace the brakes 2x driving over 30K miles, quite expensive. So far, so good, build quality is stronger than Fort Knox. FIAT owning Chrysler will be a great thing. (Fortitude In America Tony) Upper management has taken the time and effort to rebuild the minivan, properly for 2011.

5th chrysler family van lease since 99. Had the dodge, chrysler and at the time plymoth. The 2011 on the inside is by far the nicest one yet. Last generation 08-10 was the worst I've had. Cheap look/feel to the interior and worst drivabilities. Too much roll in turns but this new one beats them all since 99. look and feel of the interior definately the highest quality and nicest design yet. IMO you can even argue it's nicer than the Sienna or Odessy I looked into. Only drove about 300 mi's but seems so far to be much improved over last generation in terms of road handling but it remains to be seen how this new powertrane and redesigned suspensions stand the tests of time

My oh my! The new T&C is by far the best Chrysler has offered in a mini van. We are on our 3rd T&C (05, 08, and 11) and this one blows away our 08'. The minor exterior changes are perfect, but the interior changes are what make this van most enjoyable to drive. As for build quality, time will tell. We had major issues with brakes on our 08'. Going on road trip next month. Looking forward to driving 20 hours.

We have had the 2011 for about 500 miles now, as they were late coming on the market. Was worth the wait. Many things we like about this compared to our old pre-stow and go T&C. Miss a few things too, like the flat folding rear seats. Low end torque of the 3.6 L Pentastar is awsome. Seats are better than the 2010 models we test drove. Hiway mileage seems a bit better than our old 3.8 L, but city is probably about the same due to the heavier weight of the vechicle. With 7 adult passengers, we were getting 25-26 mpg on our first road trip on winter gas in MN.
