Two problems related to brake light on have been reported for the 2000 Chrysler Town & Country. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
On March 10, 2010 my husband was driving our 2000 Chrysler Town & Country home when he applied the brakes and the pedal went to the floor! luckily he was on our street near our home therefore he wasn't going very fast. There was brake fluid coming from under the van & the brake fluid reservoir was empty! thank god he didn't have an accident and no one was hurt! this ,however did happen approx. 5 years ago with this van and he was in an accident and we did report this to daimlerchrysler. Com. Now I do think this year & model car should be looked at. My husband, in both cases, never had a brake light go on or any sign of anything to think the brake line was in need of attention. He is very strict on maintenance with our vehicles. The 1st time, when the brakes were applied, the seals in the rear brake blew out which caused the loss of the fluid hence no brakes. We now have had the van towed and will it be looked at tomorrow 3/11.
Brakes have had to be replaced twice. The brake light came on, informing the consumer tha brakes were needed. . The service was done by a local midas both times since the dealer stated the brakes were out of warranty.
