2009 Chrysler Town & Country 4dr Minivan, ext.

251-horsepower 4.0L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD

180000 mi Transmission failure, repaired under lifetime factory warranty. Zone rep insisted on dealer rebuild rather than reman replacement. Reman was in stock at local dealer, flat rate 11 hour time. Should have taken two days. Car was shuffled to two dealers twice and then a third before one of them was authorized to rebuild. Took over 5 months out of service time. I own 5 Chrysler minivans and 5 RAM diesels. Loyal Chrysler customer since 1970. Will not buy another Chrysler product or recommend one ever again. Totally unacceptable treatment for warranty service. Was never allowed to talk to zone rep or contact him in any fashion. Three letters to Chairman of Chrysler went unanswered. Just completely unacceptable behavior by the firm. There is no Chrysler anymore, it's now Stellantis (Peugeot). If that's how Peugeot treated their U.S. customers I understand why they vanished from the U>S. market decades ago. They appear to be attempting to replicate that performance. I like the products, but cannot tolerate such treatment. 
80000 mi

US $100
Laeking transmission lines replaced 
100700 mi right front axle 
137000 mi Transmission rebuild. The transmission failed only a quarter mile from the dealer just after a cracked starter ring gear was replaced. I was able to nurse the car about 100 ft where I was then able to coast downhill to the dealer.
