Grand disappointment! – Was so excited to buy my first brand new car from the dealer, I had to add extra anchor points fitted into the third row as I had 3 in car seats and 1 in a booster. Everyone had room, we could pack the car for family trips without the need for a pod on top. Then the transmission died. Could not believe the run around I was given to have it… Read more

replaced! The finishes in the interior are not good, within 2 years I have had to replace all brake pads, 4 tyres, transmission, key batteries and the plastic motor encasing under the seats and the maps gps is useless.

For such an expensive people mover, it's a real disappointment. Do not bother taking for a test drive!

It is terrible and Essendon dealership are all horrible esp. Jeff he is employed to say that there i – i bought a Chrysler Grand Voyager brand new in 2011. 6 month after, I started to hear noises, strange noises. I had to change all the tyres twice within 4 years of the purchase. I also had to change my brake pads for $1000 every 13000km. One major issue was the gear box. The gear box bought Hell on earth for me and thats what made me sell it. It… Read more

was a design fail. How could such a big car have tiny wheels? The petrol alone was way too much. It's very thirsty and costy. Lastly, I do not reccomend this car under any circumstance nor Essendon dealers. Before purchasing the vehicle, they treat you with such privilege, but as soon as you complain about the problems, the spit in your face and refuse to help you. Unless you're willing to waste your money, I would never ever buy it. After four years i was forced to sell the car for nothing. I lost $40,000.

Stay away from Chrysler! – I bought our 2008 5th Gen 2008 Voyager brand new from Essendon Chrysler. The car looked great, good stereo, very functional lay-out and had lots of safety features. During the test drive I felt the transmission was clunky however I was assured all was in order. We bought the car and so began out nightmare with the car and Chrysler. Within 4… Read more

weeks the side electric sliding door had broken. It took a further 2 return trips to Frankston Chrysler and 6 weeks for the parts ex USA (even though it was booked in for a recall). Another 2 trips to Frankston Chrysler (messed up loan car booking) they again booked the car in for the other door but did not order the parts...)

I then had my first service at 8,000km (FYI - travel 15,000 km per year) and was told the car needed new brake rotors and pads. I protested long and loud that after 8,000 kms with zero towing that a vehicle could not need this work. As they did not have brake parts i had to drive the car for 4 weeks until the parts arrived ex USA.

$1600 later, service and brakes fixed. Driving home and hood lifted - they did not close it when servicing. Next service 18,000kms new brakes and rotors again. Another $1600 service. Asked a very simple job to change windscreen wipers in service.

They put one correct fitting wiper blade on but the driver side a a blade that did not fit - completely different shape. I only found this out the first time it rained when it did not work - it was coming out!) Service manager told me that the brakes are the heel of this vehicle.

At 40,000kms the transmission packed up. After being messed around by the incompetence Chrysler Frankston (and phone calls to Chrysler head office) I started servicing the car at Berwick Chrysler and took the transmission issue to them. Back and forth and finally a diagnosis the transmission needed to be replaced but it would be 6 weeks ex USA.

New transmission fitted and driving it home I could hear something not right. Booked in again the next day to fix. Note the transmission was covered under warranty; did I mention another set of rotors/pads and another $1600 service?

The last straw - the remote key went flat. The spare key remote also flat.

I changed the batteries but neither worked (found out the spare key was never paired to vehicle from new). Told by Berwick Chrysler to bring in the car and keys as they need to pair them. Picked up the vehicle and told that they could not fix the remotes and I would need to order new keys Ex USA.

it would be 4 weeks. $545 each and I would need to book the car in to have it paired to the vehicle. The timing should be good as it will be due for another service and another set of rotors and pads...

I have had enough. I should have bought a Kia Carnival.

The car will be sold after the next service (End Feb 2013) with 1 x working key. Never ever again! Stylish, stereo, functionality Poor transmission, poor support in Australia, unreliable, brakes, brakes, brakes

Comfort Great, until it starts to go bad – I have a Chrysler Grand Voyager 2009 Touring. I bought it new off the dealer. For the first 12 months the car was a dream. It isn't a cheap car and I wanted to purchase quality. However little by little we found the cost of maintenance was high and even though we kept up the services, things started to go wrong - very wrong. Key ignition failed… Read more

- $3100, Engine overheated $4300, Battery flat (under warranty - but the battery doesn't go flat in less then 12 months from replacing it). The brake pads need replacing all the time! $1200, and the list continues!

Seriously the car is great when working?

However I am flat out giving this vehicle 2 stars and would warn any buyer off the significant investment to purchase one. Storage, vehicle entertianment, comfort Breaks down - lots!, costly maintenance (that does not prevent breakdowns!), fuel costs

Excellent – Well worth the money. nothing about this car annoys me. It drives super smooth, sound system is sensational, very roomy for the kids and adults, great for packing the car on holidays. Love it! Everything. This car is extremely roomy, smooth to drive, has all the bells and whistles.. Fantastic family car..
