Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Loads. It just stopped going at one point, but the engine was still running, so Chrysler changed the fuel pipe? It then happened again and it turned out to be electrical.The radio keeps going back to the default settings, sometimes 10 times in a day. The high level brake light broke from the screw connection. (I had to call in after a week to see if the part had arrived at which point they had lost it)The sliding door motor packed up. The engine management light came on in July 08, they fixed it in May 09 after ordering a part which took 8 weeks to turn up, which, then was the wrong part, the 'right' part came a week later!!! but didn't fix the problem. The lights on the centre console have started to pack up (just like the last Voyager we had).
What's most practical about your car?
The space, and sliding doors/boot
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
The DVD player
