Transmission completely goes out of gear while driving causing you to roll to a stop unable to move.

Feb 27, 2023

NOISE COMING FROM 2008 MODEL YEAR PACIFICA TRANSMISSION IS NOT BEING COVERED UNDER THE LIFETIME POWERTRAIN WARRANTY BECAUSE CHRYSLER SAYS RUSTED ENGINE CRADLE IS TOO FRAGILE FOR THEM TO ACCESS THE TRANSMISSION. AS RUSTED OUT ENGINE CRADLES ARE AN ONGOING DOCUMENTED PROBLEM FOR CHRYSLER PACIFICA MODELS, YET CHRYSLER IS EFFECTIVELY VOIDING MY LIFETIME POWERTRAIN WARRANTY UNLESS I AGREE TO PAY OVER $5000 FOR A NEW ENGINE CRADLE.

Apr 30, 2018

MOTOR MOUNTS RUSTED OUT & NEEDED TO BE REPLACED (100K MILES) EVEN THOUGH THESE DO NOT REQUIRE ANY TYPE OF MAINTENANCE ACCORDING TO THE MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE & BOOK. FURTHERMORE, I HAVE A LIFETIME POWERTRAIN WARRANTY BUT THE DEALER & CORPORATE BOTH STATE THIS REPAIR IS NOT COVERED. EVEN THOUGH I HAD A 100K MILE EXTENDED WARRANTY AND A LIFETIME POWERTRAIN WARRANTY AND HAVE RELIGIOUSLY SERVICED MY CAR AT CHRYSLER DEALERSHIPS, I WAS STUCK PAYING $1,000 TO REPLACE THEM. DEALER STATED THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE SO I HAD NO CHOICE. NHTSA SHOULD INSIST CHRYSLER REPAIR OR REIMBURSE OWNERS AS THIS IS A PERVASIVE ISSUE WITH THE PACIFICAS DUE TO A DESIGN FLAW (AC DRIPS ON MOTOR MOUNTS WHICH CAUSES THEM TO RUST OUT).

Jan 25, 2017

ACCELERATED ENGINE FRAME CORROSION: THE FRONT SUB-FRAME(ENGINE SUPPORT CRADLE) IS CORRODED SO BADLY, THE POWERTRAIN CREATES EXCESSIVE ENGINE VIBRATION, INCORRECT SHIFTING, VEHICLE FLEX, AND EXCESSIVE ENGINE TRAVEL. THE VEHICLE IS NO LONGER SAFE FOR HIGHWAY USE. IN ADDITION TO STEERING AND SUSPENSION RELATED SAFETY LIABILITY, THE ENGINE/POWERTRAIN IS KNOWN TO 'DROP' OUT OF THE VEHICLE AT ANY TIME WHILE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION. IF THIS SHOULD OCCUR AT HIGHWAY SPEED, THERE WOULD BE A TOTAL LOSS OF VEHICLE CONTROL AND IT IS VERY LIKELY THAT SERIOUS OR FATAL INJURIES COULD ENSUE. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE AFFECTING ALL YEARS/PACKAGES OF VEHICLE MANUFACTURE FOR THE CHRYSLER PACIFICA, REGARDLESS OF ACTUAL DATE OF PRODUCTION. A SINGLE PRIOR RECALL ADDRESSING THE ISSUE WAS INITIATED IN 2010 FOR A VERY NARROW SELECTED PRODUCTION DATE RANGE(02/23/14 ' 03/31/04) WELL AFTER THE VEHICLE LEFT PRODUCTION(2008). THIS AFFLICTED SUBFRAME PART WAS NOT ALTERED DURING MANUFACTURE TO CORRECT THE ISSUE/DEFECT DURING ITS PRODUCTION RUN. CHRYSLER EMPLOYEES ACKNOWLEDGE THE CORROSION PREVENTION PROCESS/COATINGS USED WERE NOT SUFFICIENT TO PREVENT ACCELERATED CORROSION OF THE ASSEMBLY. CHRYSLER WILL REFUSE TO ADDRESS THOSE SERIOUSLY AFFECTED. ONCE THE ISSUE WAS FOUND (IN MY CASE ONE YEAR AGO), THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER REPRESENTATIVE. WHILE THE DEALER WANTS TO RESOLVE THE CONCERN FOR THE CONSUMER, THE CORPORATE DIRECTIVE DECLINES THE REPAIR AS NOT REQUIRED. OF NOTE: THIS IS UNRELATED TO STANDARD RUST CORROSION ISSUES ASSOCIATED WITH TYPICAL AUTOMOBILE AGING. MY VEHICLE ALWAYS BEEN GARAGED AND HAS MINIMAL CORROSION ISSUES ANYWHERE ELSE ON THE VEHICLE. DOCUMENTED EXAMPLES OF ISSUE: HTTP://WWW.CHRYSLERPROBLEMS.COM/TRENDS/CRADLE-ROT/ HTTP://WWW.THEINDYCHANNEL.COM/NEWS/CALL-6-INVESTIGATORS/CHRYSLER-CORROSION-CAR-OWNERS-WANT-ANSWERS-ON-CORROSION-PROBLEM

TOOK CAR IN FOR REGULAR MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE MANAGER SHOWED ME THAT THE SUBFRAME/ENGINE CRADLE WAS SEVERELY RUSTED ESPECIALLY IN THE CENTER AND PASSENGER SIDE. THE CAR ONLY HAS 76,500 MILES AND IS REGULARLY SERVICED, WASHED AND MAINTAINED. NOW IT'S DANGEROUS TO DRIVE. I HAVE A MAX CARE CHRYSLER EXTENDED WARRANTY AND IT'S NOT A COVERED COMPONENT. I CALLED CHRYSLER AND THEY WILL DO NOTHING. THIS APPEARS TO BE A PROBLEM WITH ALL MODEL YEAR PACIFICA'S, YET THEY ONLY WARRANTY A VERY SMALL NUMBER BUILT IN 2004-2005.

THE ENGINE WOULD NOT START. BATTERY AND CONNECTIONS WERE CHECKED. THE STARTER MOTOR AND SOLENOID ASSEMBLY WAS REPLACED. THE STARTER ATTEMPTS TO ENGAGE BUT WILL NOT TURN THE ENGINE. AFTER RESEARCH I FOUND CHRYSLER HAS OFFERED A RECALL FOR SEVERAL 2008/09 MODEL CARS AND VANS FOR DEFECTIVE IGNITION SWITCHES. THE SAFETY HAZARD IS GREAT IF THE ELECTRICAL PORTION WOULD FAIL WHILE THE CAR WAS IN MOTION.

ANY TIME I WASH MY CAR, SOMEHOW I THINK WATER GOES IN TO THE SENSORS. AFTER THE CARWASH IF I TRY TO START IT, THE LIGHT FLICKER ON AND OFF AND IT REFUSES TO START. EVEN WHEN IT RAINS, THE WATER MAKES ITS WAY INTO THE SENSORS AND IT DOES NOT START. IT MAKES NOISE LIKE WHEN THERE ARE ELECTRIC SHOCKS. THERE HAS BEEN OCCASIONS IN WHICH IT DOES NOT DETECT THE KEY AND DOES NOT START.

Sep 16, 2016

I AM HAVING TROUBLE STARTING MY 08 PACIFIC. I GET A MESSAGE THAT SAYS "INVALID KEY & FOB" AND THEN CAR DIES WHEN TRYING TO START MY VEHICLE WITH THE ORIGINAL KEY. AS A TEMPORARY SOLUTION, I FOUND A SEQUENCE ONLINE (CHRYSLER'S FORUM) TO GET THE VEHICLE TO STARTED AND STAY RUNNING BUT THAT IS VERY ANNOYING. I'M THE ORIGINAL OWNER AND I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO DEAL WITH THIS ISSUE. AFTER RESEARCHING ONLINE, I LEARNED THAT THIS HAS BEEN A RECURRING ISSUE WITH THIS VEHICLE FOR MULTIPLE YEAR GROUPS. UNTIL NOW, I WOULD HAVE EXPECTED CHRYSLER TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE LONG AGO. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN FOR THIS TYPE OF FAMILY VEHICLE BECAUSE IN ORDER TO GET THE VEHICLE STARTED, DURING EXTREME HOT OR COLD TEMPERATURES, CHILDREN ARE IN THE CAR WHILE YOU HAVE TO ALL WAIT UNTIL THE SYSTEM RE-ASSOCIATES ITSELF WITH THE KEY AND THIS TAKE 3-5 MINUTES; THIS IS WITH THE ORIGINAL KEY I MAY ADD. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS AND AS A CONSUMER/ORIGINAL OWNER I SHOULD NOT BE LEFT TO FOOT THE BILL FOR ANY REPAIRS ON THIS MALFUNCTION THAT IS WIDE SPREAD. I HOPE THAT THIS IS TAKEN SERIOUS BECAUSE AS I ACTIVE DUTY SERVICE MEMBER, I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO ACCEPT BEING IGNORED.

IT SEEMS I AM NOT ALONE, MY 2008 PACIFICA OCCASIONALLY LOSES POWER, THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM SHUTS OFF, THEN QUICKLY TURNS BACK ON. THIS HAS HAPPENED FOR THE PAST 6 MONTHS, NO MECHANICS CAN FIND A PROBLEM BECAUSE WHEN THE ENGINE SHUTS OFF IT CLEARS THE CAR COMPUTER. IT IS HAPPENING MORE FREQUENTLY NOW.

2008 CHRYSLER WITH 12,100 MILES ON ODOMETER EXPERIENCED A SECOND BREAKDOWN FOR THE SAME LOWER RADIATOR HOSE FAILURE. ORIGINAL NHTSA COMPLAINT ODI NUMBER 10286512. LOWER RADIATOR HOSE ORIGINALLY FAILED AT 6,200 MILES DUE TO HOSE RUBBING AGAINST ENGINE, CAUSING HOSE TO BURST. HOSE WAS REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY IN OCTOBER 2009. IN JANUARY 2010, AT APPROXIMATELY 12,100 MILES, LOWER RADIATOR BURST AGAIN, FOR SAME REASON. CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP INDICATED THAT REPLACEMENT HOSE WAS ALSO INSTALLED INCORRECTLY, AND THAT HOSE WAS FOUND TO BE RUBBING AGAINST FAN SHROUD, CAUSING FAILURE. THIS IS NOW SECOND REPAIR/REPLACEMENT FOR SAME HOSE IN 12,000 MILES (7 MONTHS). *TR

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

6 complaints

The car runs out of gas when there is gas in it - the fuel system doesn't recognize the fuel. It is a known problem with this vehicle/fuel system (you can google it). It is difficult to add fuel to the car, as a vapor lock is created and causes the stations pump to shut off. I need to hold the nozzle 1/2 way out of the tank and dribble it in for the tank to fill. 1) this allow more gas fumes in the air 2) creates the danger of spilled fuel 3) makes it impossible to gas up the car in states that have the vapor covers. The gas gauge gets to 1/2 a tank, then drops to 0 immediately. Even with monitoring the mileage, the car 'ran out of gas' long before it should have. After being stranded and calling AAA, they brought me 2 gals. I went immediately to the gas station to fill up, and the tank was overfilliing and spilling on the ground after only putting 10 gallons in it (the vehicle has a 23 gal tank) The fuel system has a maufacturers defect, the fix for which should be the responsibility of the manufacturer. I have had my mechanic check it and he cannot figure out the problem other than replacing the whole faulty system. This is the car my teenage daugher drives. It is dangerous for her to be stranded on the side of the road. It is dangerous to have fuel spilling at the gas pump, It is

FUEL GAUGE SHOWS INACCURATE READING. I FILLED THE TANK HALFWAY AND AFTER DRIVING FOR 30 MINUTES OR SO THE GAUGE DROPS TO AN 1/8 TANK WHILE DRIVING. AFTER I SHUT IT OFF FOR A FEW MINUTES IT WILL GO BACK UP SOMETIMES HIGHER SOMETIMES LOWER. IT'S HAPPENING MORE FREQUENTLY. I HAVE SMALL CHILDREN AND WOULD HATE FOR IT TO LEAVE MY WIFE AND CHILDREN STRANDED IN THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE.

WE JUST PURCHASED A 2008 CHRYSLER PACIFICA. THE ELECTRIC DRIVER'S SEAT POSITIONING MODULE, LOCATED ON THE DRIVER'S DOOR, FAILED WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, MOVING THE SEAT UNCONTROLLABLY FORWARD, CRUSHING ME AGAINST THE STEERING WHEEL AND DASH SO THAT IT WAS DIFFICULT TO STEER OR TO PLACE MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE. IT WAS SNOWING HEAVILY AND I COULD NOT IMMEDIATELY PULL OFF THE HIGHWAY. HAD I CRASHED AT THAT TIME, THE AIR BAG WOULD HAVE INJURED OR KILLED ME, SINCE MY CHEST WAS TRAPPED TIGHTLY AGAINST THE STEERING WHEEL. I WOULD ALSO HAVE BEEN TRAPPED AGAINST THE STEERING WHEEL AND COULD NOT HAVE EXITED. AFTER ABOUT 30 SECONDS IN THE FORWARD POSITION, THE SEAT MOVED BACKWARD, THEN CONTINUED TO MOVE BACKWARD AND FORWARD RANDOMLY. IT WAS UNRESPONSIVE TO THE SWITCH. AT TIMES IT WOULD MOVE ALL THE WAY BACK AND THEN ALL THE WAY FORWARD. EVENTUALLY I WAS ABLE TO LEAVE THE HIGHWAY AT A REST STOP AND REMOVE THE FUSE THAT CONTROLLED THE SEAT. THE SEAT WAS IN THE REAR POSITION AT THE TIME, SO THE CAR WAS DRIVABLE. HAD THE SEAT BEEN UNRESPONSIVE IN THE FORWARD POSITION, I COULD NOT HAVE GOTTEN OUT OF THE CAR. *TR

I'VE BEEN LOOKING AROUND TO SEE IF ANYONE ELSE HAS HAD THIS PROBLEM AND HAVE FOUND OUT THAT THEY HAVE. THIS IS A VERY BAD SAFETY ISSUE THAT CHRYSLER NEEDS TO TAKE CARE OF WITHOUT ANY EXPENSE FROM THE CONSUMERS. THIS ARE FINANCES BEING TAKING FROM MY FAMILY THAT NEED NOT TO HAPPEN.

I BOUGHT THIS CAR FROM THE ORIGINAL OWNER IN 2009 WITH 38K MILES ON IT. SINCE THEN, I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE THE ENGINE MOUNT THREE TIMES!

I HAVE CALLED AROUND AND DEALERSHIPS SAY THAT IT IS HARD TO GET TO THE RADIATOR ON THIS CAR DUE TO ITS DESIGN, SO THE COST IS $1600. AT THIS POINT, I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE THE CAR. I HAVE READ THROUGH THESE COMPLAINTS AND CHRYSLER HAS KNOWN ABOUT THE ENGINE MOUNT PROBLEMS WITH THIS CAR SINCE AT LEAST 2011, AND STILL NO RECALL!

WHILE DRIVING 40MPH THE HOOD FLEW OPEN AND SMASHED INTO THE WINDSHIELD, BLOCKED MY VIEW WHILE DRIVING & NEARLY CAUSED A FATAL CRASH. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED THOUGH THE FIRST TIME, IT STAYED LATCHED JUST ENOUGH THAT THE HOOD JUST VIBRATED & RATTLED GIVING ME ENOUGH TIME TO PULL OVER ON THE HIGHWAY, OPEN IT & SLAM IT SHUT AGAIN. I'M NOW TERRIFIED TO DRIVE THE CAR FOR FEAR IT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN AND CAUSE SERIOUS INJURIES OR A FATALITY. CHRYSLER SHOULD BE FORCED TO RECALL ALL THEIR VEHICLES AND REPLACE THE HOOD LATCH. MY CAR WAS IN MINT CONDITION AND WILL NOW COST THOUSANDS TO REPAIR. THERE WERE NO WARNINGS LIGHTS OR INFO DISPLAYED ON THE DASH INDICATING THE HOOD WASN'T LATCHED SO NO WAY OF KNOWING THERE WAS A POTENTIAL (SERIOUS) PROBLEM. IT'S SHOCKING THERE'S NO SENSOR THAT TELLS YOU IT'S OPEN/UNLATCHED LIKE THERE IS WHEN A DOOR ISN'T CLOSED PROPERLY.

WE HAVE REPLACED THE MOTOR MOUNTS AROUND 50,000, WE REPLACED THE ENGINE AT 66,000, AND I WAS DRIVING IT TODAY AND MY STEERING LOCKED UP ON ME. WE HAVE ISSUES WITH THE LIGHTS, AND JUST HAD THE TIMING CHAIN AND WATER PUMP REPLACED. I RECENTLY JUST PUT AROUND $6,000. ALL ISSUES HAPPENED WHILE THE CAR WAS IN MOTION ON A CITY STREET.

WHILE DRIVING, SOMETIMES WITHOUT WARNING, THE CAR LOSES POWER(ENGINE SHUTS OFF) THE RADIO, HEATER/AC STILL WORK BUT NO POWER FROM THE ENGINE. SOMETIMES THE WHEEL AND BRAKES LOCK UP AND I CAN BARELY GET IT OFF THE ROAD. OTHER TIMES, I CAN POP IT INTO NEUTRAL WHILE DRIVING AND RESTART IT. IT'S VERY SCARY AND I HAVE 3 KIDS IN THE CAR WITH ME DAILY. IT HAPPENS AT RANDOM TIMES, WHETHER I JUST PULL OUT OR HAVE DRIVEN SEVERAL MILES. IT HAS HAPPENED DRIVING SLOW AND AT FASTER SPEEDS. IT HAS BEEN LOOKED AT BY A CERTIFIED CHRYSLER DEALER. THEY DROVE IT UNTIL IT HAPPENED TO THEM AND DON'T KNOW WHAT IS CAUSING IT. THIS HAPPENS AT LEAST ONCE, SOMETIMES TWICE EVERYDAY. *TR

MY CAR WILL UNEXPECTEDLY STALL OUT WHILE DRIVING THUS CREATING A SERIOUS SAFETY HAZARD. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING INTERMITTENTLY FOR THE PAST 8 MONTHS. I HAVE HAD A LOCAL CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP CHECK AND THEY THINK IT'S THE PCM OR FUEL PUMP AS HAD BEEN REPORTED IN OTHER MODEL YEARS. THEY RESET THE PCM BUT THIS DID NOT REPAIR THE PROBLEM. CHRYSLER HAS RECALLED OTHER MODELS FROM 2004 AND 2006 FOR THIS ISSUE BUT WILL NOT AKNOWLEDGE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE 2008 MODEL. THE CAR IS CURRENTLY BEING USED IN BRUSSELS, BELGIUM AS I AM WORKING FOR THE DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE THERE. I CONTACTED THE EUROPE CHRYSLER CUSTOMER CARE BUT THE REPRESENTATIVE SAID SHE HAD NO KNOWLEDGE OF ANY RELEVANT RECALLS PAST OR PRESENT. I HAVE SENT AN EMAIL TO THEM (COPY TO NHTSA) AGAIN REQUESTING FINANCIAL COVERAGE FOR THE NECESSARY REPAIRS AND I AWAIT THEIR RESPONSE. WHAT ARE MY OPTIONS NOW?

THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO REPAIR SHOPS WHERE THE MOTOR AND IGNITION HOUSING WERE REPLACED. IN ADDITION, THE VENT CONTROLS DID NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY FOR THE AIR CONDITIONER. THE CONTACT CONTINUED TO STALL AND OVERHEAT. THE BATTERY WAS REPLACED TWICE BY A MECHANIC, BUT THE FAILURES RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A MECHANIC WHO REPLACED THE MOTOR, RADIATOR, COOLING FAN, AND ANOTHER BATTERY. THE CONTACT TRADED IN THE VEHICLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED.

MY PACIFICA STALLED AND LOST POWER WHILE DRIVING. I WAS SO SCARED. I HAVE KIDS AND THIS IS VERY UNSAFE. I WAS ABLE TO COAST TO A STOP SAFELY BUT IF THERE WAS A CAR IN FRONT OF ME I WOULD HAVE HIT IT...THIS IS A RECURRENT ISSUE WITH THIS VEHICLE. I SEE COMPLAINTS ALL THE TIME AND I AM NOW ADDED TO THE LIST. I'M SO WORRIED FOR ANYONE WHO OWNS THIS VEHICLE. THIS CAR NEEDS TO BE RECALLED BECAUSE PEOPLE PAY THEIR HARD EARNED MONEY FOR A SAFE RELIABLE VEHICLE... IF SOMETHING HAPPENS TO ANYONE CHRYSLER WILL HAVE TO ANSWER FOR IT...

TWICE NOW, THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED WHILE ON CRUISE CONTROL UP TO OVER 95 MPH. I APPLIED THE BRAKES WHICH SLOWED DOWN A LITTLE BIT, BUT THE ENGINE CONTINUED TO REV AND ACCELERATE WHEN I TOOK MY FOOT OFF THE BRAKE PEDAL. IN BOTH INCIDENTS, I HAD TO SHUT OFF THE CAR TO GET IT TO STOP ACCELERATING. THERE WAS A LOT OF TRAFFIC AT THE TIME, AND I HAD TO STEER ONTO THE SHOULDER WITH NO POWER STEERING. THE 2ND TIME THIS HAPPENED, I NOTICED THE GAS PEDAL WAS STUCK EVEN WHEN THE ENGINE WAS OFF AND HAD TO BE PRESSED ON A COUPLE OF TIMES BEFORE IT WOULD RELEASE. I AM VERY CONCERNED THAT THIS WILL HAPPEN AGAIN AND CAUSE A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. I AM PLANNING ON TAKING THE VEHICLE IN TO GET THIS FIXED SOON. I DON'T SEE ANY RECALLS AND THOUGHT I SHOULD LOG A COMPLAINT HERE IN CASE IT HELPS SAVES OTHER'S LIVES AS WELL. *TR

CAR KEPT STALLING AND THEN WOULD NOT START. THE LIGHTS AND ALARMS WENT OFF AND ON WITHOUT ANY REASON. HAD IT FLATBEDDED TO THE SHOP - GOOD THING WE WEREN'T ABLE TO DRIVE IT. THE MECHANIC SAID THAT THE IGNITION UNIT BROKE. THIS WOULD HAVE BEEN A SERIOUS SITUATION IF IT HAPPENED WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY...THE IGNITION WAS REPLACED, WITH A USED IGNITION SO WE ARE VERY WORRIED. ODD LIGHTS KICK ON, THE TRANSMISSION/ENGINE JUMPS FOR REASON. IT MAY BE THE AWD IS FAILING TOO.

WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION TOWARDS AN INTERSECTION, IT LOST POWER. I HAD TO SWITCH OFF ALL ACCESSORIES, SHIFTED GEAR TO PARK AND RE-STARTED THE ENGINE. YESTERDAY NIGHT, THE VEHICLE STOPPED IN MOTION BY A TOLL GATE, A TRUCK WAS BEHIND ME AND FORTUNATELY, BY THE TOLL GATE, EVERYONE SLOWED DOWN.

I WAS DRIVING AND THE CAR JUST TURNED OF ON ME IN THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSECTION. LUCKILY AS SOON AS I REALIZED THAT IT HAD TURNED OFF I WAS ABLE TO CLEAR THE INTERSECTION AND PULL TO THE FAR RIGHT BEFORE THE LIGHT TURNED GREEN TO ONCOMING TRAFFIC. I HAD THE CAR TOWED HOME AND THE NEXT DAY I HAD A PERSONAL MECHANIC COME TAKE A LOOK AT IT AND FOUND OUT THAT I NEEDED TO REPLACE MY IGNITION SYSTEM. AFTER HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS LATER THE CAR TURNS ON BUT IT HAS SO MANY MALFUNCTIONS WITH THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, STRUTS, AXLE, MOTOR MOUNTS AND FRAME THAT THIS VEHICLE IS JUST DANGEROUS TO DRIVE AND NEEDS TO BE RECALLED ALTOGETHER. *TR

THE 2008 CHRYSLER PACIFICA SIMPLY STALLS WHILE IN MOTION. ALL ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS, INCLUDING AIRBAGS, ARE DEAD. THIS HAS HAPPENED AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS, WHILE STOPPED, AND WHILE ACCELERATING. IT HAS HAPPENED DURING VERY COLD TEMPERATURES (BELOW 0), HIGH TEMPERATURES (ABOVE 90) AND OTHER TEMPERATURES IN BETWEEN. THERE DOES NOT SEEM TO BE ANY RHYME OR REASON AS TO WHY IT HAPPENS, AS WHEN THE CAR IS PULLED OVER AND IGNITION TURNED TO THE OFF POSITION, IT CAN TYPICALLY BE RESTARTED - THOUGH IT APPEARS THAT IT TAKES MULTIPLE ATTEMPTS TO GET THAT TO WORK AS THE ISSUE IS GETTING WORSE INSTEAD OF BETTER. THIS IS AN ISSUE THAT IS NOT JUST ISOLATED TO THE 2008 PACIFICA, BUT TRANSCENDS MODELS AND YEARS. IF ONE SEARCHES CHRYSLER PACIFICA STALLING, ONE WILL FIND NUMEROUS OTHER IDENTICAL COMPLAINTS AND CAN QUITE EASILY DISCOVER THAT IT COVERS OTHER YEARS AND MODELS. IT IS EQUALLY AS UNSAFE AS THE GM RECALL. I HAVE CALLED CHRYSLER PERSONALLY AND INQUIRED OUT THE ISSUE ONLY TO BE DISMISSED. IN FACT, THEIR EXACT CLAIM TO ME IS THAT THEY WERE UNAWARE THAT THERE WAS A PROBLEM DESPITE ME POINTING OUT THE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS I COULD DISCOVER IN SECONDS. I BELIEVE THAT CHRYSLER GROUP IS KEENLY AWARE OF THE PROBLEM AND IS SIMPLY HOPING THAT IT WILL GO AWAY DUE TO THE HIGH COST OF A RECALL. OTHERS HAVE PAID SIGNIFICANT AMOUNTS TO DEALERS TO HAVE ITEMS CHANGED ONLY TO FIND THAT THE ISSUE IS NOT RESOLVED. IN ANY CASE, THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO RECTIFIED IMMEDIATELY BEFORE SOMEONE (OR A FAMILY IN MY CASE) GETS INJURED OR DIES. PLEASE HELP ME TO KEEP MY FAMILY SAFE WHEN DRIVING THIS CAR. *TR

I HAVE CHANGED MOST PARTS, ALL SENSOR HAS BEEN REPLACED (REPLACED BY ORIGINAL PARTS), AND IT KEEPS TURNING OFF.

CAR WILL NOT TAKE GAS. GAS PUMP BETWEEN TANKS IS NOT WORKING PROPERLY TO MOVE THE FUEL FROM ONE SIDE TO THE OTHER, CAUSING YOU TO RUN OUT OF GAS FREQUENTLY. IT ALSO IS CAUSING THE MILEAGE/COMPUTER/GAS GAUGE TO INDICATE YOU HAVE A HALF TANK AND THEN IMMEDIATELY DROP TO E AND RUN OUT. THIS SEEMS TO BE AN ISSUE WITH THE MERCEDES DESIGNED FUEL TANK AND SHOULD BE RECALLED AND REPLACED WITH A STANDARD DESIGN. WHEN ON E YOUR CAR WILL NOT TAKE GAS. INITIALLY I WAS TOLD TO IDLE AT THE PUMP FOR 2-5 MINUTES...NOW AT 10 MINUTES, MY CAR WILL NOT TAKE GAS AND TAKES ABOUT 20-30 MINUTES TO TRY TO FILL IT. VERY FRUSTRATED. *TR

"MILES TO EMPTY" SHOWED 2. I DROVE 8 MILES THEN ADDED 14 GALLONS OF GAS TO FILL THE 23 GALLON TANK. IT HAS HAPPENED AT LEAST 5 TIMES SINCE THEN. ONE MECHANIC TOLD ME I HAD TO BRING IT IN WHEN IT WAS HAPPENING AS IT WAS A SENSOR ISSUE. ANOTHER TOLD ME THE CAR ACTUALLY HAS TWO GAS TANKS & THE FUEL PUMP VACUUM WAS PROBABLY NOT PICKING UP THE FUEL FROM THE SECOND TANK PROPERLY.

1. THERE WASN'T ANY EVENTS LEADING UP TO THIS FAILURE, NO ACCIDENTS, ETC 2. THE FAILURE IS THE MOTOR MOUNTS, ENGINE LIFTS UP WHEN GOING FORWARD) CAN CAUSE DEADLY ACCIDENT, ENGINE COMING OUT FALLING OR FLYING OUT CAR SOUND LOUDER THAN USUAL WHEN GOING FORWARD AND WHEN STARTING UP. THIS CAN CAUSE A DEADLY ACCIDENT/SERIOUS BECAUSE THE ENGINE CAN FALL OR FLY OUT OF THE CAR. I HAVE NOT GOTTEN THE CAR FIXED. JUST FOUND OUT WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS 2 DAYS AGO.

PURCHASED A 2008 CHRYSLER PACIFICA WITH APPROXIMATELY 32K MILES ON IT. THE CAR WAS "CERTIFIED" BY CHRYSLER. AT APPROXIMATELY 44K MILES THE ENGINE WOULD BANG WHEN SHIFTING OUT OF PARK TO REVERSE OR DRIVE. ACCORDING TO THE DEALER THE ENGINE MOUNTS WERE TORN AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. I WAS TOLD ENGINE MOUNTS ARE NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY BECAUSE IT'S CONSIDERED NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR AND IT WOULD BE AROUND $700 TO FIX. I REVIEWED THE CHRYSLER OWNER'S MANUAL AND THERE IS NOTHING THAT MENTIONS MOTOR MOUNTS NEEDING INSPECTION FOR WEAR AND TEAR. THE STANDARD ITEMS ARE LISTED SUCH AS OIL, TIRES, FILTERS, BELTS, FLUID ETC. IF MOTOR MOUNTS ARE SUBJECT TO NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR SHOULDN'T THEY BE LISTED SO AN OWNER CAN HAVE THEM INSPECTED? THE CERTIFICATION CHECKLIST ALSO DIDN'T INCLUDE AN INSPECTION OF THE ENGINE MOUNTS. CHRYSLER DOESN'T OFFER ANY INFORMATION ON THE MOTOR MOUNTS IN THEIR WARRANTY, CERTIFICATION INSPECTION OR OWNER'S MANUAL. AFTER FURTHER RESEARCH I'VE FOUND NUMEROUS WEBSITES WITH OTHER PACIFICA OWNERS HAVING THE SAME EXACT PROBLEM WITH THE MOTOR MOUNTS. FAILING MOTOR MOUNTS APPEAR TO BE A FACTORY DEFECT CHRYSLER IS IGNORING. *TR
