Top 20 Used Cars to Avoid: Consumer Reports

16. Chrysler Town & Country

The Chrysler Town & Country minivan was originally introduced in 1989 and is in its fifth iteration. Recently, however, Fiat-Chrysler CEO Sergio Marchionne has confirmed that the Town & Country will be discontinued and replaced with a luxury crossover model. It even saw some major changes in 2011 in both styling and functionality, though it wasn’t enough to keep it around.

Consumer Reports found the Town & Country’s handling, braking, fuel economy, and fit and finish sub-par, while reliability suffered in the following categories: Engine Cooling, Climate System, Suspension, Brakes, Paint and Trim, Squeaks and Rattles, Body Hardware, and Power Equipment.
