📖Chrysler Town & Country IV: the benchmark for family luxury with innovative Stow 'n Go seating

Chrysler Town & Country IV (2001-2007)

The fourth-generation Town & Country refined Chrysler's luxury MPV formula to near perfection, culminating in the groundbreaking introduction of Stow 'n Go seating for the 2005 model year. By allowing both the second and third rows of seats to fold completely flat into underfloor wells in seconds, Chrysler eliminated the need to remove heavy seats, transforming the car instantly from a seven-seat luxury cruiser into a cavernous flatbed hauler. Comprehensive Chrysler Town & Country maintenance is essential to protect its complex seating mechanisms, electrical features and robust mechanicals.

Power is supplied by the durable 3.3 and 3.8 V6 pushrod engines, which provide relaxed low-end torque and long-term durability. These powerplants are paired with the familiar 41TE automatic transmission, which operates smoothly provided it receives regular fluid changes with genuine ATF+4 fluid. The chassis delivers a soft, composed ride, though front suspension lower wishbones and anti-roll bar drop links experience accelerated wear from the vehicle's heavy kerb weight.

Owner notes

The reassuring points, known weak spots and deadlines you should not let slip.

Reassuring points

Reliability
  • Revolutionary Stow 'n Go seating folds completely flat into the floor in seconds, creating enormous cargo capacity.
  • Proven pushrod 3.3 and 3.8 V6 engines offer relaxed cruising torque and outstanding long-term mechanical reliability.
  • Superb passenger comfort with tri-zone climate control, power sliding side doors and power tailgate operation.

Chronic weak spots

Keep an eye on
  • 41TE automatic transmission: check shift smoothness, ensure exclusive use of ATF+4 fluid and inspect solenoid pack for weeping.
  • Underbody rear heater and air conditioning lines: inspect aluminium pipes near the right rear wheel arch for pinhole corrosion leaks.
  • Power sliding doors and tailgate: test motor cables, wiring tracks and optical pinch sensors for intermittent stopping.
  • Front suspension bushes and top mounts: check lower wishbones and anti-roll bar drop links for play caused by vehicle weight.
  • Front wiper linkage assembly: inspect wiper motor pivot bushings for seizure or stripping under heavy snow or rain loads.

Critical deadlines

Do not miss
  • Automatic gearbox fluid (Mopar ATF+4) and filter renewal every 50,000 km to prevent solenoid sticking and clutch wear.
  • Engine oil and filter renewal every 10,000 km or 12 months, checking oil pressure sender switch for minor weeping.
  • Inspect underbody metal coolant pipes and treat anti-corrosion protection every autumn before winter road salting.
  • Lubricate sliding door tracks, hinges and latch mechanisms every 20,000 km or 12 months.
