Chrysler Town & Country Reliability
Want to more clearly know what the difference in reliability will be if you buy a Chrysler Town & Country rather than another vehicle? Concerned about your chances of getting a lemon?
TrueDelta provides this information in the form of "times in the shop" stats that make the actual repair rates clear and, in the future, "lemon-odds."
The latest Car Reliability Survey (CRS) results include Chrysler Town & Country reliability information based on owner experiences through June 30, 2010:

Concerned about the Chrysler Town & Country's reliability? Considering an extended warranty? Warranty Direct is a 26-year-old company with nearly 2 million contracts sold and over $500 million in paid claims.
Like insurance, extended warranties are best bought to limit downside risk, and from a company that is almost certain to remain in business. While for most people extended warranties will not pay off, for some they will pay for themselves many times over.

Note: The older the review, the more likely it has become outdated owing to more recently introduced competitors.
Chrysler Town & Country Tire Reviews
The Tire Rack offers the Internet's most extensive collection of Chrysler Town & Country tire reviews, tire survey results, and tire tests. To see which tires are available for the Chrysler Town & Country--or for your car--and go from there to Tire Rack's comprehensive information, use the tool in the sidebar.
The Tire Rack can be especially useful as a source of winter tires, which I have strongly recommended ever since buying a set for my car. If you're unhappy with your car's handling and braking on snow and ice, you probably just need proper winter tires, not a new car.
