ANALYSISHow safe is the 2021 Chrysler Voyager?
The 2021 Chrysler Voyager carries a notable deficiency in active safety features, scoring just 2 out of 10 in the avoidance technology sub-score. This low mark is due to the lack of standard forward collision warning and lane departure warning systems, with electronic stability control being the sole active safety technology equipped as standard. Despite this, the vehicle achieves a Safety Index of 86 out of 100, placing it in the Strong band, a marginal one-point decrease from the 2020 model's 87. Crash protection remains robust, contributing 66 out of 70 to the overall score, reflecting strong NHTSA star performance in frontal and side impact tests. The defect record registers a competitive 18 out of 20, though two recall campaigns impact this assessment. One recall addresses curtain air bag connectors, and another concerns second-row seat mounting latches; the air bag recall, in particular, covers a broad range of model years and was recently issued. Owner complaints total 15, with no associated crashes or injuries, but a pattern of issues in electrical and steering categories warrants consideration.
NCAP // CRASH TESTHow did the 2021 Chrysler Voyager perform in crash tests?
The 2021 Chrysler Voyager achieves a strong safety profile, earning an overall 5 out of 5 stars from NHTSA. This includes perfect 5-star scores in both the frontal and side crash-test categories. The rollover rating presents the sole relative weakness, at 4 out of 5 stars; NHTSA data indicates a 12 percent rollover risk, with the dynamic tip test resulting in No Tip.

The 2021 Chrysler Voyager carries two significant recalls that prospective buyers must verify have been addressed.

Buyers are responsible for confirming remedy completion via NHTSA's free VIN check tool.
- The 2021 Chrysler Voyager carries an active curtain air bag connector recall shared with certain 2020-2023 Pacifica models, making VIN-specific remedy verification essential for any used purchase.
- A second recall specific to 2021 Voyager vehicles targets the second-row seat-to-floor mounting latch, which may not latch correctly, creating a direct occupant safety risk in a crash or hard stop.
- The avoidance technology sub-score of 2 out of 10 reflects the absence of forward collision warning and lane departure warning, meaning this model year relies almost entirely on passive crash protection rather than active crash prevention.
