Hey, its a van -- dont dream big - 1999 Plymouth Grand Voyager
By Me - June 8 - 10:40 amHand-me down from a family member. 99k miles. Engine and ride are nice, although the 3.3 liter is weak at passing speeds and gas mileage is miserable - Edmunds says 18 mpg city, 24 mpg hwy. Ive yet to break 21 mpg, and thats even driving 100% freeway on a few tanks. City gas mileage is 15-16 mpg. No, I dont hammer the gas pedal.FYI, reliablity not promising - previous owner had to pay 1k transmission fix that was under extended warranty, but the warranter went bankrupt (go figure) - meaning owner paid for warranty, but ended up paying for fix anyway. One more reason why I dont believe in extended warranties. But hey, I got this van for free, so why the heck am I complaining?

Transmissions Suck & Eats Tires - 1999 Plymouth Grand Voyager
By Donewithchrysler - March 30 - 2:00 amWe went through 3 transmissions in the first 75000 miles. Ive talked to several other owners and most or all have had transmission problems. Use one or more set of tires per year and their rated at 60k+ miles. Ive owned Chrysler mini-vans continuously since they came out in 1984. I wont buy anymore.

1999 Plymouth - 1999 Plymouth Grand Voyager
By El Tee - March 14 - 10:23 pmReplaced transmission within first 25000 miles. 2nd transmission replacement at 79000. Brake system components lack integrity. 3.3 Chrysler engine lacks adequate horsepower. Spare tire rack cant securely hold a full size tire for spare. Seats must be phyisically lifted out if one wishes to create more room - very heavy/cumbersome. Sound system needs upgrading.

Money Pit - 1999 Plymouth Grand Voyager
By Fed Up Mom - April 28 - 12:33 amWe purchased our 99 van in 00 with only 7,000 miles on it. The engine went in 2004. Since then we have replaced oil pump, fuel pump, radiator, and now the transmission is gone. The driver window doesnt work, as well as the left rear vent window. The power lock for the rear hatch stopped working in 2002. We have had trouble with the ac for the past 4 years. The vans rear left speaker caught fire in 2005 while I was driving to work. Thank God my children werent with me at the time. The bushings are shot and the brake system has always given us trouble. From the first year we purchased it the van leaked water into the front. I regret the day we bought this van.

Transmission Problems - 1999 Plymouth Grand Voyager
By Skip - January 21 - 2:00 amVehicle bought in February 2000 with 24,000 miles on it. It had been a reliable vehicle until the transmission "blew up" at 69,000 miles going 35mph. Lost total control of the vehicle. The differential blew a 6" by 3" whole in the casing completely distroying the transmission. A life threatening defect for anyone traveling at a high rate of speed. Incident happened outside of warranty. Reported to dealer and Chrysler but hey were only concerned with the warranty status.
