The 1997 Chrysler Town & Country Caravan and Voyager were popular minivans representing the second generation of these models. Built upon the Chrysler "NS" platform, these vehicles boasted a spacious and versatile interior, a comfortable ride, and a reputation for reliability. Available in both short-wheelbase (SWB) and long-wheelbase (LWB) configurations, both models offered seating for seven passengers with the option for a removable rear bench seat. The Town & Country was marketed as a more luxurious and premium version of the Voyager, offering features like power sliding doors, leather upholstery, and upgraded audio systems. Under the hood, the Caravan and Voyager were powered by a range of engine options, including the 2.4L I4, 3.0L V6, and 3.3L V6, with different power outputs and fuel economy ratings.

The 1997 model year saw several notable updates for both the Town & Country and Voyager. These included the introduction of the "Caravan C/V" model specifically designed for commercial use, featuring increased cargo space and heavy-duty suspension. Safety enhancements were also introduced, including driver and passenger airbags as standard equipment. Furthermore, the introduction of a new transmission, the 41TE automatic, saw improved fuel efficiency and smoother shifting compared to the previous 3-speed unit. Despite being a popular choice for families and businesses alike, the 1997 Caravan and Voyager were not without their drawbacks. Certain engine models, particularly the 3.0L V6, experienced issues with head gasket failures, while the transmission proved susceptible to premature wear and tear. These common problems, combined with a tendency for body rust, led to some reliability concerns despite their overall popularity at the time.
