general problems of the 2005 Chrysler Pacifica

My wife was going 35mph in town. Coming to an intersection she needed to turn. No brakes or steering, both stopped working. Luckily no one hit her and she was able to stop before hitting the telephone pole. I have seen a number of people online with similar issues.

Tl-the contact owns a 2005 Chrysler Pacifica. The contact stated that while driving at 65 mph, the brake pedal was depressed but the vehicle failed to stop as the contact felt a vibration coming from the brake pedal. The contact had to shift the gear lever into neutral in order to stop the vehicle. The abs and engine warning lights illuminated. In addition, new fuel cap was displayed across the message board. The vehicle was taken to the dealer multiple times who replaced the fuel cap. In addition, the dealer was unable to diagnose or repair the vehicle. The vehicle was then taken to an independent mechanic who diagnosed that the rotors and the back rotors needed to be resurfaced. The vehicle was repaired. However the failure recurred. The vehicle was taken back to the mechanic who was unable to diagnose or repair the vehicle. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 80,000. Oo.

I was pulling into a left hand parking spot when the vehicle stalled/completely shut off. Dashboard lights were still on. I was able to coast backwards down a slope and back into another open parking spot. I had no power steering, and brakes were very hard to depress. I looked up the problem on the internet and looked up open recalls. I found a recall similar to what happened, but when I called both diamler-Chrysler and a local Chrysler dealership and gave the last 8 characters of my VIN, they informed me there were no open recalls for my vehicle. From what I researched, this might happen several times and I am quite concerned with my safety.

I was traveling with my children down a state highway when I noticed that my "miles to next service" light was saying my next service was due in 4555 miles. How odd, I thought, but didn't have time to ponder it further as I was going around at curve at 45 miles per hour with cars both behind me and oncoming, when I realized that my steering had inexplicably given out. I attempted to brake, only to realize that my brakes, too, had malfunctioned and weren't working. I threw on my flashers and did everything in my power to get that car safely to a halt at the side of road. It was only due to my efforts that my children and I were able to safely evacuate the vehicle before more dire consequences occurred, because the Chrysler Pacifica was completely dead. Thankfully, a kind passerby helped me push the car off the road before someone hit it, and I called aaa for a tow. I still don't know what caused this potentially lethal malfunction, but I had adequate fuel in the car and had the oil changed less than two weeks prior so it wasn't simple owner neglect. No, it was a Chrysler malfunction that could have caused my children and I our lives today.

The contact owns a 2005 Chrysler Pacifica. The contact stated that while driving 65 mph and applying the brakes, the vehicle did not respond. The contact had to brake again before the vehicle responded. There were no warning lights illuminated. The vehicle was taken to a repair shop where no failures were found however, the brakes were replaced as a precaution. The failure recurred after the repairs. The manufacturer was not notified. The current mileage was 137,737. The approximate failure mileage was 132,000.

I have had my car from 2011 till curent and replaced the front axels/tie rods at least 3 to 4 times a year. Last incident it broke while pulling out of drive way and I lost controll and rolled down a hill into 4 lanes of trafic narrowly missing the gas pumps at th station across the 4 lane thank goodness no one hit me with my young child in the car. When I first had to take it to a dealer to get them changed 2 other cars in this small town I live in were there also having theres replaced. This should be a recall every person I talk to states this is a problem that is arising from a rusted cradle problem when manufaturing the car. I would like my car repaired where thiws will no longer happen and it is too exspencive for me to fix. I have decided to look further into this issue and maybe come together with other with this issue. There should of been a recall by now. I had my oil changed and was told that my boot is busted and that I needed to replace the drivers side yet again and I do not have 119. 00 to pay my local Dodge for this yet again!.

The contact also stated that the brakes would involuntarily engage when driving at any speed. Once the brakes disengaged, the vehicle would surge forward momentarily.

The contacts owns a 2005 Chrysler Pacifica. The contact stated that the abs indicator would illuminate on the instrument panel intermittently and the vehicle would hesitate to stop when the brakes were applied. The vehicle was taken to a local mechanic diagnosed that the anti lock brake module caused the failure to occur. The vehicle was not repaired. The dealer was notified of the failure. The manufacturer was not contacted regarding the failure. The failure mileage was 55,000 and the current mileage was 100,000. The VIN was unavailable.

Abs seems to come on but brakes don't hold sometimes. Warning light comes on for brakes. Seems to slide right through an intersection and wont stop vehicle.

2005 Chrysler Pacifica - I just purchased a 2005 Pacifica touring with the h package (man date 8/04). I have encountered a "rumble' when hard breaking from 60 (and over) down to about 30 to 35, it makes the steering vibrate. It is clearly in the front end at first I am thinking bad rotors.
