I noticed at approximately 48,000 miles that my 2008 Town & Country was burning oil during use with no visible oil leaks after taking the vehicle in for an oil change. The mechanic stated that the vehicle was 3 quarts of oil low when checked before draining the oil. I have been checking the oil once per month since. The vehicle now has about 73,000 miles on it and is burning approximately 1 quart of oil each 1500 miles driven. I have never owned a vehicle with this problem and have read other complaints on this site of this same issue. I am lucky that I caught the issue before serious engine damage and repairs were required like some of the other respondents. This issue should be considered for recall or extended coverage in the event that serious issues occur. Other issues I have experienced during my ownership of this vehicle I purchased new are the premature failure of the front hubs and premature wear of the brake components. The front hubs have failed on each side 3 times already in the 73,000 miles and now the drivers side hub is making a loud noise again signaling that it will need to be replaced soon. I have never had this issue with any vehicle that I have owned. To have it happen for the 4th time prior to 100,000 miles would seem to be a defect. The brake components seem to wear out every 15,000 miles and the rotors require replacement each time the pads wear out. This seems to be a quality issue with the parts both new and replacement.

While driving at 65 mph, the drivers side rear brake calipers locked on, and made a loud noise. I exited the freeway, stopped the car and noticed the rear wheel was very hot and had a strong burning smell. The fenton, mi Chrysler dealer immediately and accurately guessed that my car was a 2008 Town & Country minivan, and he even knew it affected the drivers side rear wheel. He had seen this many times with early 2008 t& c's. Why has Chrysler not yet issued a recall? this is a severe safety issue. The dealer fixed the problem at no charge, since, at 31,000 miles, my car is still under warranty. However, my concern is for other drivers of this vehicle. I believe there should be an investigation to determine if a recall would be appropriate.
