  Nice Vehicle - 2009 Chrysler Aspen
  By Nice Vehicle - December 29 - 7:13 pm

  Bought the dealer demo in Jan. 09 and received an AMAZING deal for what we got. I love all the neat accessories like remote start, heated seats, anti roll, and all those other features you dont even know you have. Have had some issues with the roof racks warping and wind noise. Took to the dealership and they did not take care of issue. Thankfully there is another dealership in the area we can take it for service. We just had a blizzard and the car did EXCELLENT on the snow and ice.

  2007 Chrysler Aspen - 2007 Chrysler Aspen
  By BRAE - November 22 - 8:08 am

  2007 Chrysler Aspen is one of the best cars I have ever owned. I leased the vechicle for 27 months then bought the car. Fuel economy is 14 city and 19-20 highway just as they have reported. I ordered this vechicle with everything and could not be more pleased with the performance and quality. A lot of car for the money especially when you compare with others in this class. Very disappointed they will not continue to make in the future.

  Nice Car Poor Reliability - 2009 Chrysler Aspen
  By Ken - October 20 - 12:47 pm

  I purchased the Aspen HEV in Feb. 2009. I love the car as far as looks and comfort. I meet all my needs. But since I purchased the car it has been in the repair shop 5 times. for a total of 37 days down time. Part of the problem is only quailified trained mechanics can work on the car. My dealership has one, so if it is his day off we are out of luck. We have had trouble with check engine light, transfer case, leaking sunroof, computer control module, catalic conveter,paint peeling and now it has been in the shop for 12 days and I still dont have it, because it needs a starter battery. The battery has been on back order since October 12, 2009. I love this car, but it is a lemon

  2nd Aspen - 2009 Chrysler Aspen
  By rob94551 - October 18 - 3:48 pm

  This is our second Aspen. First has the Hemi. The new engine combo is slower off the line and the Hemi doesnt really kick in until high into freeway speeds, but the transition across the power band is smooth, and is fast enough. The smoothness of the ride hides the rate of speed increasing. The add on specials make the car a great value and a lot of small things are thought of (rear view camera), etc. Great sound system. Only thing I can think to complain about, if I had to, is the gage that shows if the engine is in electric, combo or power zone. The car is stable and corners well on mountain road downhills. The AWD helps with handling, and much improved over non-AWD Aspen

  Best SUV - Ever! - 2009 Chrysler Aspen
  By niv - October 13 - 11:45 am

  I usaully trade for a new vehicle annually. I traded from the SRT 8 Jeep to the Aspen. Although it took a several weeks I can now appreciate the third row seating, almost 20 MPG and the engineering improvements over Jeep.I may keep this one a little longer than usual...

  Great Vehicle for the Money - 2009 Chrysler Aspen
  By Stan in Texas - September 10 - 8:17 pm

  We actually wanted to buy a Tahoe, Yukon or Expedition. However, a comparably equipped Chrysler Aspen was about $12K less. Thats a lot of money, so we went with the Aspen. Ive never been a Chrysler fan, but I am willing to give them a shot. I think Edmunds was too hard on the Aspen in their review. So far (2100 miles) we LOVE our Aspen. This is a leftover 2009 model and the dealer ship was REALLY dealing. They knocked $11K off the sticker price and gave us $3K more than we owed on our 2007 Explorer.

  Excellent Value - 2008 Chrysler Aspen
  By RJS - August 20 - 2:06 am

  The Aspen is a very smooth ride and very quite. This makes listening to the Sirius Satellite Radio even more enjoyable! To me the interior is more like a high end SUV. The plastic on the outside however gives this away. I am very happy and do not agree with the editorial. The second seat leg room is fair but the fold down seats in second roll makes more third row leg room.

  Smooth Hemi Power in a Large SUV - 2009 Chrysler Aspen
  By Kevin K - August 11 - 11:21 pm

  My first impression was that it had a CVT transmission its shifts so smooth, but NO. The transmission does not seem to give the same punch throughout a wide range, my Nissans in the past were much better in that area. Interior makes you feel that you are in a nice vehicle, it is also an attention getter on the exterior. For a 6,400 LB SUV it accelerates fast, you are king of the Trucks/SUVs on the road without a Hemi. Will take "most" 6 Cyl Cars as well, just stay away from some of the import powerful V6s like the 2009 Maxima. It is a little bouncy on major dips/bumps, but not overly so. The Brakes are sufficient, but could stop a little better. Handling on sharp bends is average at best.

  Great Vehicle - 2007 Chrysler Aspen
  By BDBobo - July 21 - 10:09 pm

  I really like the style and comfort. It is especially nice when compared to the competition and how much more their vehicles are. This tows more than almost any other SUV and the gas mileage isnt great but its good for an SUV. It does better than my wifes Jeep Commander with the 4.7l V-8. And it does almost as well with mpg on the highway as my wifes old 2005 mini van. This is a great vehicle for the price and has been extremely reliable.

  Love My Aspen - 2009 Chrysler Aspen
  By aspen_j - July 8 - 12:56 pm

  Had a 2005 Durango and this Aspen drives more like a car when compared to it. What really sold me on the Aspen was the heavy discounts, Sirius Backseat TV, remote start, alarm, chrome wheels, power liftgate, and 3 rows. All other brands didnt fit my budget with those same features.
