2021 Chrysler Voyager

Factory specifications, fluid capacities, torque values, EPA fuel economy and the federal safety record for the 2021 Voyager.

Transmission Automatic 9-spd

The 2021 Chrysler Voyager runs a 9-speed automatic and carries an EPA rating of 19/28/22 mpg, while routine oil service is specified at 5.0 quarts of 0W-20. Across the model's 2000-2026 complaint history, the 2021 model year lands near the low end, posting just 15 owner complaints and 2 recalls compared with a peak of 102 complaints in 2002. That low-volume record, led only by the catch-all "Unknown Or Other" category, marks the 2021 Voyager as one of the more uneventful entries in the nameplate's reliability timeline.

Inspection Procedure (Lower) — tightening sequence 1 stages
1Tire and wheel assembly can now be removed. Step 3: Attach a dial indicator mount to the steering knuckle and align the plunger in the direction of the ball joint stud axis. Plunger should be touching the rear of the ball joint socket in lower control arm. Step 4: Zero dial indicator by pushing up on the lower control arm. Step 5: Insert a pry bar between lower control arm and knuckle from the front of vehicle. Step 6: Push up the knuckle from the lower control arm until the needle of the indicator stops moving. Step 7: Document reading on dial and replace lower ball joint if reading exceeds specifications.

Factory maintenance schedule OEM · verified

Normal service, condensed from the factory interval matrix.

Under the factory schedule, replace the engine oil and filter every 10,000 mi; spark plugs every 100,000 mi; coolant every 10,000 mi. The big-interval services (every 10,000 mi for coolant, and the transmission fluid) are the ones owners most often skip — on a lower-mileage example, assume the original fluids are still in it and check them first.

Reliability & federal safety record

Owner-reported issues, recalls, investigations and service bulletins on record with NHTSA — an unfiltered look at what owners actually experience.

The 2021 Chrysler Voyager shows 15 complaints, 2 recalls, and no investigations, while its TSB count spikes to 404—the highest in the 20202026 window. Compared with the prior year (2020: 12 complaints, 1 recall, 270 TSBs) and the following year (2022: 5 complaints, 5 recalls, 421 TSBs), 2021 sits with more complaints than 2020 but fewer than the early‑2000s peak, and its recall total is lower than several later models (2022‑2025). The generation’s complaint trend fell to near‑zero in the mid‑2000s, then rose again starting in 2020, accompanied by markedly elevated TSB volumes through 2022 before dropping sharply in 2023‑2026. Consequently, 2021 falls in the upward‑sloping phase of this recent trend, bearing higher complaint and TSB levels than the subsequent 2023‑2026 models. Takeaway: given its relatively elevated complaint and TSB figures versus the cleaner records of 2023 onward, the 2021 Voyager is a less attractive used‑car choice compared with those later years.
