My car rides like a Cadillac

I have absolutely no problems with my vehicle. The performance is great! It's really reliable & the features are absolutely amazing! I would definitely recommend anyone to get a Chrysler Aspen. It has been the best car I've ever in my life had. The only problem I have with it is the gas mileage.

Great car for a large busy family.

My aspen is wonderful. It has leather automatic seats. It drives smooth and has not given us any problems. It has seating for eight, which suits our family wonderfully. The third row folds down to give an option of one or two. My only issue with this great automobile, is that it has large blind spots.

Iris S

Drives smooth, and it's mine, very roomy, gonna drive it till the wheels fall off

Performance vs Dependability

My vehicle is very dependable and has performed outstanding. I have not had no major problems with my vehicle since owning it and it continues to perform in an outstanding manner

Melody B

It seats 8 pretty comfortably. It drives smoothly.

It fits all of my kids. It's not a minivan. It's easy to drive. I wish mine had a sunroof.

Cost you all you have and all you make

Worst vehicle ever. Put more money into the car then what it’s worth and it still has so many issues that I can’t keep up with. Wish I never purchased the vehicle makes me never want a Chrysler again.

Brandon D

The wiring in the car is awful Chrysler should be ashamed of themselves

It's a problematic car I've had issues with it since day 1 especially the electrical if i had to go back and do it again I'd go with a different car that's for sure.

David R

It is a huge gas hog. I dislike having to fill my tank two or three times a week.

I like the engine power. I like the available space. I hate the gas mileage. I dislike the inability to update internal features, like camera.

Costly Problems with Sensors

I wish I could love my Aspen, but it has given me many issues since I purchased it. It has already had the entire engine rebuilt, and there are a few (REALLY expensive!) sensors that need replaced, including one that controls the sway bar, ABS, and cruise control mechanisms. The features and comfort are not enough to outweigh the problems in performance and reliability.

John P

Great all around car for any in everyone.

Real good excellent ac nice engine interface is extremely well designed sleek body works well in rain tint looks great a lot of room comfy affordable great mileage fuel efficient would great steering safe with 2 airbags up to date software would recommend to anyone.

Erik V

It really is a good vehicle it's our second one to own.

Just got the airbag replaced because of a recall. Seems to be good on gas if taken care of properly.

Melissa M

The power steering has done out on me.

Chrysler cars are not very reliable I have had a lot of problems with mine. The comfort with mine the seats are ok, with two rolls of seats all electric. The performance of the car is high really fast!

Leslie G

Frustrated with Chrysler aspen

It gives to many problems. It's always turning off and it turns off on me and my kids. The parts are so expensive. I like the size but not all the problems. I am thinking about trading it in so I can have a safe vehicle. I also don't like that it uses a lot of gas.

I really love all of the features in this vehicle!

I love how the vehicle drives and all of the features: backup camera, navigation, premium sound system. Cruise control. Leather and power seats, windows, locks. The only thing I do not like and the gas mileage. . . I only get about 12-14 mpg in the city.

Pros from Owners

Leeanne S.

It is sturdy, reliable, has all features I want & has been a great overall vehicle. The motor, transmission, and all major parts have worked perfectly with no problems. It has plenty of passenger and cargo space, hands free calls, GPS, leather interior, and towing capacity.

Cons from Owners

Leeanne S.

It has a Hemi 5.8 Engine that uses a lot of gas, the low profile tires are not my favorite for driving in snow, it is not the perfect color choice for me, it is a little expensive for basic maintenance, the tires are very expensive to replace.
