Two problems related to equipment have been reported for the 1999 Chrysler Town & Country. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
There is an known issue with town&country van b/t certain years. I have a 1999. When water splashes from the road or runs off the vehicle, the water lands on the serpentine belt, and causes the belt to slide off. When the belt slides off, the power steering fails to such a degree that it makes the vehicle difficult to maintain control. There is a patch that Chrysler issued, but not did not deem it a recall. I believe this issue is bad enough that it could cause significant problems. I've had this happen several times. Not driving through puddles, but just having a wet road can cause (and has caused) an issue. The fix is 400+$, which is ridiculous considering that this is a known issue that Chrysler created a fix for, but won't recall. I've replaced every belt, tensioner, pulley etc, and the mechanic frankly said its a known problem with certain years of town & county.
Wanted to trade van in and they told me do to safety factors could not take in on a trade. Said that the rust on van under carriage was so bad that motor could fall out and it was not worth taking in on a trade do to this problem.
