Warnings problems of the 2021 Chrysler Pacifica

The emergency brake came on while I was driving.

On empty roads at low speeds, vehicle flashed emergency braking signs and stopped abruptly. Happened multiple times in January both in reverse and when driving forward normally. Safety of driver and passengers was impacted by the sensor issues and abrupt braking. If there were other cars behind the vehicle, it could cause accidents and injury. Vehicle was brought into dealership and could not identify or address the issue. Suggestion provided was to disable the sensors while driving.

Front park sensor will intermittently go off like it is detecting an object when vehicle is at stopped, but there's no object, went to Chrysler dealership for warranty 7 times, last time dealer service confirm and recreate the problem but can not replace because no fail code as me open case with Chrysler. When park sensor fault read when I was at stop I need to get out of the car to inspect to make sure no object is in the front, this is very unsafe sometime I have get out of the car in the middle on the road.

This vehicle programming includes forward and rear collision warning with both audible and dashboard diagram lights showing which sensors are approaching another object. Unfortunately, in practice, the alarms alert you to something in front or behind you regardless of if you are in gear to move forwards or backwards. This means that everytime you get in gear to leave your parking spot the alarm is dinging because of whatever you pulled up to in your parking spot making drivers have to tune out the audible alarm which is irrelevant and look down at the dash to see where the alerting object is in relation to the vehicle. Reports have been filed with Chrysler but no action has been taken to improve this poor design despite years of it being in effect.

The first incident, the vehicle lost power driving down the freeway at 75 miles per hour. That was only at 1,000 miles. Very scary!! since then, I have had numerous electrical issues- too many to count. There has been front & side sensor collision warnings when nothing is even next to my car. The navigation has not worked the majority of time that I have owned the car. Travel for work so I therefore have to look at my phone for directions- not ideal at all for safety. I had had a few instances of an extremely loud humming sound from the vehicle of unknown origin. I have had the control screen frozen & could not turn on heat in winter. I have most of these occurrences on video with my phone. I had sent a certified letter requesting arbitration. I have had no response from Chrysler. I had the car in 7 times to the dealership. They told me they cant fix it & dont waste my time returning until there is recall. I have these incidents in movie or video form. Your form will not allow me to upload these videos- only still pictures.
