  Family Five - 1998 Plymouth Grand Voyager
  By Sam - August 21 - 6:23 pm

  The major problems Ive had with my Plymouth Grand Voyager in three years of ownership are: 1)a short out of the entire instrument cluster, 2)a bad head gasket on the 3.3L V6, and 3)an annoying rattle from the luggage rack on windy days. Other thanthat, the Grand Voyager is comfortable, responsive, easy to drive and pretty reliable.

  Worst vehicle I have owned! - 1998 Plymouth Grand Voyager
  By M Jackson - May 29 - 8:26 am

  Bought used at 70,000 miles. The lifters had just been rebuilt. In 3 years of ownership, we replaced the serpentine belt 9 times, the power steering pump, the water pump, the fuel pump, the key ignition because the key would not turn, (the locksmith said he replaces at least 1 a week on these vehicles), crank sensor, map sensor, leaking valve cover gaskets, the cd player, the passenger seat would not lay back, the power windows get stuck, the van smoked constantly, poor acceleration.... I paid it off 2 months ago, and now the timing belt broke causing engine failure because of poor engine design! I have had this van towed countless times and have been stranded more times than imaginable. We will never buy again!

  TOTAL TRASH - 1998 Plymouth Grand Voyager
  By 12 years of horror - October 19 - 12:10 pm

  Worst car I ever owner(Ford Taurus a close second)I purchased this van new and have always taken it back for service every 3000 mi and did what ever the maintenance called for.Needless to say I have had constant problems from day one with this van.It has been towed more times than I want to remember.Over the years I have just about replaced everything-transmission,starter, generator, steering column,ignition switch 2x,AC parts,wheel cylinders, sway bushings 4x,computer module parts,radiator,gaskets..+++++ Everytime it was repaired I thought that would be it..but problems never stoped.Now that the second trans went again I finally gave up the ship @155K.Toyota/Honda/Subaru, here I come

  Would buy another - 1998 Plymouth Grand Voyager
  By ztagwil - October 11 - 11:55 am

  We were fortunate to have bought an experimental van by Chrysler. It is an Expresso Grand Voyager, 6-cyl, 3.8L. It has a truck chassie and a towing package. We have pulled a camper for 8-9 yrs. Have 195k. It has been a tank, very comfortable with 4 captains chairs. Replaced transmission once. We need another van, to carry 7, and to pull our camper. We think, that if you can find one of the 1600 ever made, you can trust it. Looking for a sleeper (one with low mileage).

  DEAD after five years - 1998 Plymouth Grand Voyager
  By ellieirish - October 9 - 10:00 am

  I purchased our 1998 Plymouth Grand Voyager in 1999. In 2000, the head gaskets blew which was an extremely expensive repair for a car just miles past the warranty. After a letter to Chrysler, we were reimbursed for 1/3 the cost of the repair. At 86,000 miles and after consistentr outine maintenance, the drive belt dropped off and the pistons cracked. The diagnosis: not worth the $3,000. to repair it. I had nine months left on my loan and got only half of what I owed for trade in. I wont go with another domestic van and have opted to go with the 2003 Mazda MPV after much research and comparison shopping.

  Cant wait to get rid of it - 1998 Plymouth Grand Voyager
  By taximom - September 25 - 10:00 am

  It seemed fine the day we took it for a test drive. After we purchased it and put about 1800 miles on it the transmission started to have a clunk and jerk when you we were slowing down to 5 mph. It also feels like there is a slip in the transmission when you come to a stop sign and then take off.

  Been good for us - 1998 Plymouth Grand Voyager
  By Happy Owner - May 17 - 7:26 pm

  Ive read a lot of bad reviews on this vehicle but our van has been nothing but great! We bought ours new 10 years ago and have only replaced drivers door window regulator (100,000) the water pump (150,000) and starter (160,000) beyond the usual batteries, tires, transmission service, oil changes etc. The transmission did shift rough a couple of times early (30,000) but dealer fix this under warranty. Van rides very smoothly, handles -like a van- and is great for hauling stuff and family trips and vacations. We have been very pleased and some what suprised by how reliable this vehicle has been. It has the 3.3 V6.
