2007 Chrysler Pacifica

PURCHASED A USED 2007 CHRYSLER PACIFICA (6-SPEED AUTO) FROM CHRYSLER DEALER WITH AROUND 40K MILES. IMMEDIATELY NOTICED THAT THE TRANSMISSION SHIFT POINTS WERE NOT WHAT THEY SHOULD BE. THERE WERE VERY NOTICEABLE BANGS WHEN THE CAR SHIFTED GEAR. RETURNED CAR TO DEALER WHO STATED THAT THERE WAS A SERVICE BULLETIN TO REFLASH SHIFT POINTS. THE WORK WAS COMPLETED AND CAR APPEARED TO SHIFT MORE NORMALLY BUT STILL FELT SOME GOOD BUMPS WHEN SHIFTING. TOOK CAR TO DEALER FOR SECOND SERVICE TRIP AND THEY STATED THAT MOTOR MOUNTS NEEDED REPLACED. I SEARCHED THE INTERNET AND FOUND AN UNENDING LIST OF IDENTICAL PROBLEMS. THE MOTOR MOUNTS HAVE FAILED FROM 2004 TILL THE PRESENT. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE ABOUT THIS. *TR

FROM THE TIME THE CAR WAS NEW WHEN THE ABS OR TRACTION CONTROL WAS ENGAGED THE CAR MADE A CLICKING NOISE. AS NEVER HAVING A CAR WITH THIS FEATURE I THOUGHT WAS NORMAL. IN MARCH OF 2010 MY BRAKES FAILED ON MY 07 PACIFICA. UPON TAKING THE CAR TO THE DEALER I WAS INFORMED THAT THERE WAS CONTAMINATED FLUID IN THE BRAKE SYSTEM AND THE ENTIRE SYSTEM HAD TO BE REPLACED. NEW CALIPERS, ABS MODULE, LINES, HOSES MASTER CYLINDER ECT. THE BILL WAS $2500 WHICH I HAD TO PAY BECAUSE THEY ARE CLAIMING CONTAMINATED FLUID. I HAD BEEN THE ONLY PERSON TO SERVICE THE BRAKES ON THAT CAR AND DID NOT ADD FLUID WHEN REPLACING THE FRONT PADS. WHEN THE FAILURE OCCURRED THE CAR WOULD COME TO A STOP AND START ROLLING AGAIN. I AVOIDED CRASHING BY STANDING ON THE PEDAL AS HARD AS I COULD. AFTER REPLACING THE ENTIRE BRAKE SYSTEM THE CLICKING HAS STOPPED. I HAVE DRIVEN CHRYSLER/ DODGE CARS FOR 12 YEARS... THIS ONE MAY BE MY LAST. *TR

2007 CHRYSLER PACIFICA. CONSUMER WRITES REGARDING DAMAGE IN VEHICLE ACCIDENT *TGW THE CONSUMER STATED THE WHEEL BECAME DETACHED FROM THE VEHICLE WHICH CAUSED HIM TO LOOSE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AND ULTIMATELY CRASHING INTO A GUARDRAIL. THE WHEEL AND ALL OF ITS COMPONENTS; STEERING KNUCKLE, CV JOINTS, BRAKE LINES, STRUTS ETC, BUCKLED UNDER THE VEHICLE. AFTER THE VEHICLE DROPPED DOWN WITH THE TIRE ACTING AS A CUSHION, IT DRAGGED ALONG THE GUARDRAIL UNTIL IT CAME TO A STOP. *JB

THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER WHERE THE ENGINE WAS REPLACED. HOWEVER, THE FAILURE CONTINUED. THE CONTACT CALLED THE MANUFACTURER WHO OFFERED NO ASSISTANCE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 64,000.

I PURCHASED A BRAND NEW 2007 CHRYSLER PACIFICA IN APRIL 2007. I'VE HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE ENGINE MOUNTS THREE TIMES ALREADY (JANUARY 2008, AUGUST 2009 AND SEPTEMBER 2010). MOST RECENTLY, I AM EXPERIENCING PROBLEMS WITH THE TRANSMISSION AND OIL PRESSURE BUT THE DEALER DOES NOT SEEM TO THING THERE IS A PROBLEM. I'M TIRED OF THE RUN AROUND THAT I'M GETTING. LAST MONTH, (AROUND THE FIRST WEEK IN AUGUST 2010) I BROUGHT THE CAR TO DEALER BECAUSE IT WOULD NOT START. I ASKED THEM TO CHECK THE TRANSMISSION BECAUSE IT WAS ACTING ODD, CHECK THE BRAKES, CHECK THE ENGINE MOUNTS SINCE I KNEW THESE WERE PROBLEMATIC IN THE PAST. ALSO, ASKED THEM PERFORM AN OIL CHANGE. I WAS TOLD THE CAR NEEDED A NEW BATTERY, SOME BRAKE WORK AND THE TENSIONER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. AN OIL CHANGE WAS DONE. I WAS TOLD THE ENGINE MOUNTS WERE INSPECTED AND THEY WERE FINE AND THERE WAS NO PROBLEM WITH THE TRANSMISSION. WELL, LITTLE OVER A MONTH LATER AROUND SEPT. 22 2010, THE TRANSMISSION FELT LIKE IT WAS DRAGGING, ENGINE WAS EXTREMELY HOT, RPM'S SEEMED TO BE OUT OF WACK AND THE OIL FUEL WAS REALLY LOW. THE CAR WAS INSPECTED AND I WAS TOLD THE RUBBER AROUND THE ENGINE MOUNTS HAD TO BE REPLACED AND WAS MAKING THE ENGINE PULL AWAY FROM THE TRANSMISSION WHICH WAS CAUSING THE PROBLEM. I WAS TOLD IT WAS NORMAL TO BURN / LOOSE THAT AMOUNT OF OIL. I WAS CHARGED ANOTHER DEDUCTIBLE AND I TOOK THE CAR HOME. WELL TODAY, SEPT. 28TH, I GET IN THE CAR AND THE LOW OIL LIGHT GOES ON AND THE TRANSMISSION STILL SEEMS / FEELS WEIRD. WHAT IS GOING ON WITH CHRYSLER? NOW I HAVE TO BRING THE CAR BACK IN AND MOST LIKELY THEY WILL TRY TO CHARGE ME ANOTHER DEDUCTIBLE TO FIX THE OIL PROBLEM, TRANSMISSION AND/OR ANOTHER ENGINE MOUNT. APPARENTLY, CHRYSLER KNOWS THESE ARE PROBLEMS BUT DOES NOT DO ANYTHING TO HELP THE CONSUMER. THEY SHOULD RECALL THE CAR FOR THE ENGINE MOUNT PROBLEM. HEAVEN FORBID IF I HAVE MY CHILDREN IN THE CAR AND THE ENGINE MOUNTS CRACK AT THE SAME TIME. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE. *TR

I HAVE A 2007 CHRYSLER PACIFICA TOURING 4.0. THE VEHICLES LIGHTS WILL FLICKER, THE AIR CONDITIONER AND RADIO TURN OFF AND WITHOUT NOTICE THE VEHICLE WILL LOSE TOTAL POWER. NO POWER STEERING, NO HAZARD LIGHTS NOTHING. I HAVE BEEN STRANDED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE BUSY INTERSECTION. I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO THE CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP TO GET SERVICED 3 TIMES I PAID $713.00 AND THEY STILL HAVE NOT FIXED THE PROBLEM. I HAVE EMAILED A COMPLAINT WITH CHRYSLER HEADQUARTERS. I WAS GIVEN A CASE MANAGER WHO DOES NOT CALL ME BACK. THIS VEHICLE SHUTS OFF WITHOUT WARNING AND CAN CAUSE DEATH OR INJURY TO MYSELF, MY FAMILY AND OTHERS AND CHRYSLER CAN CARE LESS ABOUT IT. *TR
