Two problems related to transmission fluid leaking have been reported for the 1996 Chrysler Town & Country. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
We have had issues with the transmission of this van since it was purchased. Leaked fluid, dealer was unable to find cause; had a noise on gear selection and delay before engaging into gear , blamed on low (1quart) level of transmission fluid; continued to have a slow leak as evidenced by fluid on garage floor; still no reason found; transmission failed on highway 476 at 60 mph; now being replaced by same dealer who could never find a problem, although the leak continued. This will now cost us close to $2500. 00 to replace. I am very disappointed in the dealer and the van's performance. The issues have continued on with this van, never coming to resolution until now with the failure of the transmission.
Automatic transmission was replaced after 7. 5k miles, owner experience automatic transmission fluid leakage indicating automatic transmission problem. Tt.
