Alternative parts supplier for Voyager in Australia

Is there a Chryslers owners group in West Australia to support owners of \Voyagers and the like who are sick of paying 400% more for parts than for competing vehicles? If so, I would appreciate someone pointing me to them.

Alternatively, how does one get parts direct from overseas and are there any generic alternative part suppliers for Chrysler.

If I can't find a way of getting affordable parts then I willhave to find a convenient lake and drive the beast into it. I am finding the Voyager the shortest living vehicle I have ever had the misfortune to own. At only six years of light driving I am having transmission, chassis, radio and extras problems at a steady rate and the parts are always many times more than for competing vehicles. My 13 year old Mazda is still running on mostly original equipment.

Heh heh! A Mazda was a poor example to use as far as cost of repair parts. Not disputing your commentrs about the minivan, as I've never owned one, but price a simple motor mount for that Mazda. It will cost over $200 in the U.S. where a similar one (very similar design and materials) for, say, a Cadillac will cost around $35 to $45. Similarly...ignition switch for a Mazda, over $200; ignition switch for a Cadillac, $35 (those two are actual examples that I personally experienced with an '87 Mazda and an '88 Cadillac that I used to own).

Good luck in finding a good low cost source for your minivan parts down under.
