Other Fuel System Pump problems of the 2007 Chrysler Pacifica

Tl the contact owns a 2007 Chrysler Pacifica. The contact stated that the vehicle took an extended period of time to start. As the failure progressed, the vehicle shook abnormally and the vehicle stalled several times without warning. The vehicle was not diagnosed by a dealer. An independent mechanic replaced the fuel pump three times, but the failure continued. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was not available.

The gas gauge drops to absolute zero and the low fuel warning comes on even though there is plenty of gas in the tank. This causes a check engine light with the code u1403. There are many owners of 2004-2007 Chrysler Pacificas that have this exact same problem. The general consensus on forums specific to this common problem is there is a gas pressure problem that causes the gauge to not read correctly. People who have taken their car to the dealer for repair report that the dealers usually say the solution is to replace both fuel pumps. Customers, however, report that this is expensive and usually does not fix the problem (check engine light stays on). Most owners say the problem stems from the poorly designed saddle tank and believe the problem is with the gas pressure. I contacted Chrysler and they were no help at all. Two separate customer service reps told me to take it to the dealer. There have been hundreds if not thousands of 2004-2007 Pacifica owners (I also found many Jeep forums with the same problem) and surely Chrysler has a record of these problems and how to fix them. Having each owner take their car to their local Chrysler dealer with no common documented fix means each owner is relying on techs that may or may not be aware of this problem and the proper way to fix it. Trial and error each time is extremely wasteful and expensive for thousands of owners. A recall would at least ensure that each service center has the correct instructions on what is exactly wrong and precisely how to fix it.

The contact owns a 2007 Chrysler Pacifica. While driving approximately 35 mph, the low oil and abs warning indicators illuminated and the engine stalled. The vehicle was able to restart on the first attempt. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where it was diagnosed that the power train control module and the fuel pump module failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired and the failure recurred. The VIN was not included in NHTSA campaign number: 06v432000 (power train). The manufacturer was informed of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 97,000.

This vehicle has had one major issue with the fuel system. When the fuel gauge gets to half way, the gauge drops to e and does not want to accept gas. It acts like it's full and you can barely put any gas in. When this happens the vehicle acts like it's out of gas even when it's not causing me to run out of gas while driving down the interstate and sometimes the car won't even start when it drops below half way. Also, my odometer reads gascap like there's a leak but it's a brand new gas cap. I've read days worth of information on the world wide web and this is the most common issue but noone has done anything about it. It is not fair to the consumer. I know I will never buy another Chrysler and I will warn others not to also. Not only that but my seatbelts do not work anymore, two of them anyway. My kids have to sit in the far back to buckle up. I bought this vehicle used. I've had the fuel pumps replaced, the vapor canister and vapor filter replaced, gas cap, ect. Nothing repairs the issue. I know now why the previous owner gave it up, if I didn't have to pay a down payment, I would have already let it go back.

I was stopped at a red light. When I put my foot on the accelerator to resume driving, the car began to shake and then it cut off. I had to pull over as quickly as possible. If a car had been driving behind me fast, I could have gotten hit in the back which could have been traumatic or even fatal. I had to have the car towed. The dealership that it was taken to diagnosed the major problem as the 2 fuel pumps needed replacing; in addition to other items. The vehicle only has 126,000 miles. There are other people having the same problem with the Pacifica (2006 and 2008 models as well). Chrysler needs to admit that their fuel pumps are faulty and replace them before a fatality happens and, in addition to replacing the pumps, they are faced with lawsuits.

The fuel pumps in the gas tanks stop working. They wont pump fuel from one tank to the other. My gas gage shoes full then when it get a little below half im out of gas because the pumps are not pumping gas from one side to the other side. I had new pumps put in 2,000 miles ago and the went out already. Chrysler need to recall this problem. I'm not the only one that is having this problem. We as Chrysler owners cant afford to pay for this all the time. I know for a fact there is a Chrysler dealer that said he has them coming in like a revolving door. I cant trust the car to go on long trips. I love the car other than this problem. Thank you for reading this. I hope something get done. I called the Chrysler customer service center but got nowhere with them.

2007 Chrysler Pacifica. I can only put less than 2 gallons of gasoline in may car at a time. Gas splashes out when trying to put gas in as if it is full. Fuel gauge not reading accurate as it drops down to "e" after it reaches 1/2 tank. Engine light remains on. Took vehicle to an independent mechanic and was informed to replace my right side fuel pump and fuel gauge sender. After replacing both parts the problem still exist. I also took the vehicle to the dealer for a diagnostic test and was unable to get a definite answer to the problem, so I paid the diagnostic fee and the problem still exist.
