I have taken my car to the dealership several times for the auto start stop. They replaced both batteries. The check engine light came on (it was flashing so had it towed) and they said it was a piston misfiring. Paid $900 to have it fixed. Two days later, the check engine light comes on again. After weeks of diagnosis the issue, with detroit's help, they said it was blow head cylinder. I was well over the warranty so I had to pay for new engine. Get this, the new engine warranty is for 3 years 100k miles so it would have been covered under warranty if they didn't change the warranty in 2016.

This involves a 2019 Chrysler Pacifica plug-in hybrid. While traveling at 80 mph with dynamic cruise control engaged, the vehicle suddenly lost all propulsion. The internal combustion engine was off, and no power came from the electric motor. The air conditioning also turned off. Despite pressing the accelerator, there was no power at all. The vehicle was only coasting, and lost speed rapidly. Despite losing propulsion, I never felt like I lost brakes or steering. Despite this, I felt very unsafe as I was traveling at highway speed in the middle of an interstate when this occurred. The display alternated between two messages. One stated I needed to shift to �p� and press the start button (the vehicle was still in motion). The second message stated there was a fault in the hybrid charging system. Once stopped on the shoulder, I shifted to park and pressed the start button while pressing the brake pedal (the normal process to start the vehicle). The dashboard, infotainment system, and window control appeared to power-cycle, but neither the vehicle nor the air conditioning would start. The dashboard continued to display a message saying a charging system failure had occurred. After 45 minutes of repeatedly trying to start the car by pressing the brake and pushing the start button. I tried just pressing the start button without pressing the brake. The car shut all the way off, and after waiting a moment, I was able to start the car by pressing the brake and then pushing the start button. Once started, the vehicle then ran normally except for a check engine light. Five days prior to this incident, a Chrysler dealer performed the repair for recall NHTSA 19v-886, and the initial inspection for recall NHTSA 20v-334.

We have a 2018 Pacifica with 10000 miles and on 4-1-2020 the check engine light came on as soon as it was started. We put the van in reverse to back out and it wouldn't go into gear. Ended up putting it back into park and tried reverse again and it jerked into gear moving the van. Took it to progressive Dodge Chrysler in ohio and found it they need to replace the transmission vavle body and also something with the emissons. How does something like this go bad so fast. . .

Tl-the contact owns a 2018 Chrysler Pacifica. The contact stated that upon startup the check engine warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to darcars Chrysler Dodge Jeep ram of marlow heights, 5060 auth way, camp springs, MD 20746, (301) 423-5111, to be diagnosed. The contact was informed that it would be approximately a week before the dealership would be able to complete the diagnostic tests. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not contacted or informed of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 10100. Ah.

On interstate highway left lane at 65mph, check engine light comes on, red plug-in light comes on, and car slows to a stop in lane. Car does not turn back on after several attempts. After five minutes, car starts again. Check engine light remains on. Stalling recall not found for this VIN, but is in manufacture date range of recall.

The car simplywont start. Check engine light turned on, service abs, service esc, parking brake unavailable, power steering unavailable. The power doors dont work. Shifter is lockedand the auto park brake was locked. The car wont even shift to neutral so it can be towed.

Year2006 make/modelchrysler Pacifica mileageabout 99,000 driving for 13+ years; had been getting check engine and abs signs on dashboard now and then for about 6 years; in humid days recurrences were more than in colds. Va inspection, both emission and safety, passed every year, last one being in July 2019, without any issue. Since late July abs sign ceased to appear any more, and check engine light is appearing steadily. In diagnostics p0700, p0732 and p0720 codes were returned. Now a days, when I come to a stop/red light, on full brake, engine makes a jerk, and speedometer reading jumps from 0 to 20 mph. Also, break pedal experiences a push-back, causing tendency to drive forward. Over 30 mph gas pedal demands more compression, and engine motion roaring also surges, no rattling. What kind of risk I am carrying in driving the vehicle, what are my options, cost for remedy and is it worth to invest in fixing the problem(s)?.

Vehicle stopped operating while driving. Check engine light. Chrysler states this 2018 Chrysler Pacifica e-hybrid needs a new transmission. It was purchased new. We put ~4k miles on the van prior to this incident.

We purchased our 2018 Chrysler Pacifica in early October 2018 and have since put less than 3,000 miles on the odometer. Today, while driving on a level rural road near our home, a couple of warning lights started flashing out of nowhere: one indicating that blind-spot monitoring was disabled, and another electronic stability control. Not long after we started up a hill a half-mile later, the accelerator stopped responding. We were slowing down. Then, the car basically stalled and came to a stop. More warning lights and sounds came on, including a check engine light, and one indicating that we needed to service the transmission. Then on the display above the wheel, a message said that we needed to turn off the engine to engage the parking brake. We called 911 in hopes of having an officer help direct traffic while we waited for a tow, as we were stopped around a curve and at a high risk of getting rear-ended. The car wasn't responding when I attempted to turn the engine off. I wasn't able to shift the car into park, either (the light above each gear flashed when I tried to shift away from drive). Also, the hazard lights wouldn't turn on, and nor would the parking brake (I had to keep my foot on the brake to prevent the car from rolling backward down the hill). As we waited for the tow truck, the lights on the dash continued to flash and the alarms continued on. At some point, I once again tried to turn the car off. It worked. Then, when I turned the car on again, only a check engine light came on. The tow truck driver also had no issue reversing the van up onto the bed of his truck.

In sept. 2018 I took my Pacifica in for cruise control recall and check engine light. Recall and check engine light repair completed. Next day check engine light came on again and has been on and off for the past few weeks. It seems to stay on about 4 days and then off for a day or two. Cruise control (in motion) goes out sporadically. Power window- drivers window- auto up does not work. Window(parked and moving) goes up half way, stops and goes back down. Transmission-not consistent issue but lurching @ 10-15mph also at 30mph.

Check engine light was on.

My 2017 Chrysler Pacifica has over 22,000 miles on it. About a month ago, I started experiencing hard shifts, jerks, Mini-stalls when accelerating. It has happened while coasting in traffic, accelerating from red lights, stop signs, and merging into traffic! I believe its 2-3 gear shift. I feel the rpms drop down to nothing and spike. It feels like being hit from behind and getting whiplash. Its very powerful and frightening. Having two kids in carseats when his happens is scary! the dealership hasn't been able to reproduce to problem (even on a drive along) and they say they can't do anything about it until a check engine lights comes on. Warranty is up in 14,000 miles - this needs to be fixed by then. Latest occurrence was this morning accelerating from a stop.

In January 2018, took the van in because of jerking motion shifting out of gears. Would go from first gear, skip second gear and then jerk hard into third gear, almost feeling like the van was going to stall. Chrysler dealership stated that Chrysler doesn't know how to fix the problem but doing an engine stall reset with the computer system in the car may fix it. That worked for about 2 weeks and the jerking motion started to happen again. Most times it was at speeds between 15-20 mph, but then it started to happen at speeds like at 40mph. Then yesterday, while driving on the highway, there was stop and go traffic, and as I was trying to accelerate, the car jerked so hard twice, I thought I was rear ended. The check engine light came on, and the car began to accelerate on its own. I tried to brake and at first was unable to. Finally the car slowed down, but the rpm's were reving at 4 while I was only going 25mph and then stalled. The car would not shift out of first gear, and would not go any faster than 25mph. I was able to get off the highway before being involved in a crash as it was rush hour traffic on the one of the most busiest highways in miami. So now my car is at the dealer and they are telling me that they are going to try to replace the valve body of the transmission, and if that still gives them problems, they will have to replace the whole transmission. This van is a year old!!! the service advisor said that they are just doing what chrylser is telling them to do to try and fix this problem. Very sad Chrysler. This is a huge safety issue and telling consumers that they don't know how to fix a problem that could be life threatening or they are going to "try" to fix it is unacceptable. Many of us that own vans have small children that are in them everyday and this is what we have to deal with. At this point, I want new manufacturer van.

Since 11/2017, have had ongoing issue with sensation of a very hard shift occurring when accelerating especially if I have been driving in heavy traffic for some time. This has been on both highways and on local streets. Sensation is so hard, it feels like vehicle has been rear ended. This has occurred both before and after recall work was done. Have requested evaluation twice at dealer and each time nothing able to be found as cause. The event does not occur all of the time so service techs most likely did not experience it. Starting the week of 4/30, van has started to be slow in acceleration when pulling away from red lights, intersections and merging onto highways. Feel van is becoming increasingly unsafe to drive. Also had check engine light come on and found to be fuel pressure sensor. When first replaced at dealer, fuel pressure sensor worked for a few days and then van would not start and approx. 1/4 tank of gas lost on parking lot surface. Required towing and when checked o-ring had crimped and burst on new sensor.

Tl- the contact owns a 2017 Chrysler Pacifica. The contact stated while idling, the vehicle would shake and lose power. The check engine light illuminated during the failure. The vehicle was dealer: island Chrysler Dodge Jeep ram 1239 hylan blvd, staten island, NY 10305 who diagnosis the vehicle a misfire. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was notified and the contact was given a case manager. The failure mileage was 10,000. Hk.

As of today, my new van has been in service 13 of the 15 days I have owned it. Not even 12 hours after bringing my new van home, I noticed some lagging/slight jerk after braking going around 20 mph. The next day, in a neighborhood (thank goodness) after turning right after a stop sign, the check engine light came on with a ding and blinking and I was unable to accelerate. I coasted into my friends driveway to put in park and the van began to shake. This went on a few min and because I was on my way to work, I left the driveway and continued on my way for 10 min. The check engine light came on two more times after that. After four days in service, they finally concluded it was the O2 sensors and replaced all of those. After it was fixed, my husband couldn't even make it home before the check engine light came back on. As of yesterday, computer modules have been updated and the check engine light still comes on and they can't pinpint where the misfire is happening.

My wife and I were returning from a trip to an appointment around 2:30 in the afternoon. We just exited off interstate 395 and were merging into traffic heading east on duke street. The light changed to yellow and required us to stop more aggressively than I typically would. We were traveling in a straight line and had to decelerate from 20 mph to complete stop within a matter of approximately 10 feet. Once our van came to a complete stop the car shut off. I didn't notice any message on the screen, but when I released the brake pedal, the vehicle started again. Afterwards, I thought back to the previous stop and thought I noticed some hesitation in acceleration, but didn't realize it until afterwards. The car was only purchased a month and a half ago and was purchased new. Unfortunately I do not have any photo evidence of the circumstances and the vehicle did not present a check engine light. The dealer we purchased from stated they didn't know what we were talking about, but offered we make an appointment and they would check the vehicle.

Tl-the contact owns a 2017 Chrysler Pacifica. The contact stated that when the vehicle was at a complete stop and when the accelerator pedal was engaged to resume accleration the vehicle abruptly jerked forward. There was no warning lights before during or after the failure occurred. The contact also stated that the check engine light illuminated intermittently. The vehicle was taken to parkway Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep ram dealer 21560 hall road clinton township michican 48038 phonne number (586)-800-3578, for inspection. The contact stated that the dealer advised the contact that there was nothing wrong with the vehicle. However, the contact stated that the dealer reprogram a quick learn and the clear shift adaptor. The contact was not sure if the parts that were reprogrammed was for the transmission or the engine. However, the repair did not correct the failure with the jerking forward, or the engine light illumination. The manufacturer was contacted. The approximate failure mileage 5,000. Li.

Van was in drive, but stopped at an intersection on a city street waiting to turn left. When light changed I attempted to accelerate and engine did not engage. Blue light on gear indicator started flashing. I was able to put car in park then shift into drive again, but there was lag when accelerating. I drove out of intersection and into parking lot. Shut off car then restarted and drove it directly to dealer. Still waiting for problem to be assessed. Check engine light had come on one day prior to this incident.

Sudden engine failure and power loss while driving. Error messages displayed on dash indicating failure of electronic stability control and transmission, along with check engine light. This issue started intermittently, but became so severe that it would happen multiple times in a short <10 mile trip. To recover, the car must be stopped, turned off, and then restarted.

My car stops running shortly after driving within a few minutes with zero warning. When this happens the power steering and breaks stop functioning. I have been able to successfully been able to restart the car and continue to my destination. This creates a defiant safety hazard and has happened randomly on multiple occasions. The stalling started at the time when the check engine light and �gascap� warning message came on - permanently. The mechanics have been unable to fine the problem and there are no computer code readings. Has there been a recall for this problem from Chrysler?.

While driving my car I turned on my turn signal to turn right onto the highway, and upon accelerating my check engine light beeped and turned on, then as I turned my wheel and tried to accelerate it wouldn't and then my car died. I then had my car towed to my house where it remains until I have it towed to the dealership.

The contact owns a 2006 Chrysler Pacifica. While driving approximately 55 mph, the check engine warning light illuminated and the vehicle started to make a jerking motion. The failure recurred multiple times. The contact also stated that the vehicle shut off while driving, and was not able to be restarted. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic for diagnostic testing. The technician stated that the motor and transmission needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 85,000.

Motor mounts replaced, tie rods replaced, control arms replaced all done in the last month !! why doesn't Chrysler have a recall out on this issues since it's known for it! OH did I mention the gas pedal gets stuck all the time! other thing is my check engine light keeps coming on and off. . . It's been diagnosed as the fuel pump. . . . Really at this point I'm tired of putting money into the car.

Tl- the contact owns a 2006 Chrysler Pacifica. The contact stated that while driving 30 mph the check engine light illuminated on her instrument panel and her vehicle stalled. The vehicle was taken to a independent mechanic where the technician diagnosed the pcm and fuel pump needed to be replaced. No repairs were made to the vehicle. The failure mileage was 150,000 and the current mileage was 151,000. Sr.

First began 11/2013 when headed out after picking up my daughter, slowed to enter left turn lane (on major busy intersection at night!) and entire car simply died - fried the battery (it was only a yr old & the second time I had replaced it since I purchased it two yrs prior from original owner) nearly was hit by several cars before tow truck arrived (so dead couldn't even be shifted into neutral!) after multiple opinions by several mechanics had to face the fact that issue w/rods caused metal pieces to infiltrate oil (all oil changes on time, previous before incident 6 week prior) causing all engine bears to go. Luckily, was able to work out a fairly decent deal to the tune of $1200, only to be faced w/multiple additional needed repairs thereafter and over a year later, I'm still trying to get to the bottom of why engine totally stalls when coming to a complete stop if my a/c is on - check engine light has been on since I purchased it & still won't stay off despite multiple re-sets & computer checks, as is abs light (again, checked multiple times & since no issue I have left it as is) now battery light also comes on intermittently. All codes come back fine, and hoses & seals all fine. . . . As of two days ago, seems I'm now looking at engine cradle issue as well! nearly $3000 in (just counting these latest issues!) after replacing battery for a third time & tire replacement (all 4) twice within a year, in addition to breaks & rotors for 2nd time in 2 years . . . Seems to be a common problem w/these vehicles and yet my VIN # isn't included in the recall. . . Shame on you Chrysler. . . . I am a single mother, who has had all regular maintenance and upkeep & cannot afford to continue to throw $ into this issue, and am afraid every time my kids are in the car that the stalling issues will cause a horrible accident!.

I have almost been in four accidents in the past week and a half due to my 2004 Chrysler Pacifica stalling in the middle of intersections and roads without warning. As I accelerate the car starts to hesitate, sputter and then just dies out. The last time it did this in the middle of a busy road with cars going by at 50mph, I had two good samaritans and two police officers that were nearby help me to safety where I had to have the vehicle towed back to my home where it sits today. The first time it happened the check engine light came on, it said bad crankshaft sensor, so I replaced it. The second time it happened it said bad camshaft, so I replaced it. The third time it happened it said bad camshaft sensor again, so I replaced thinking I bought a defective one. This did not work either as the car ended up stalling for good two days ago. I know there have been recalls in the past for this exact stalling condition of the engine, but Chrysler says my car did not show up as one of the recalled ones. I find this very concerning that this dangerous condition would not be covered by Chrysler when they know it has been an issue on thousands of other similar Pacificas.

Tl- the contact owns a 2005 Chrysler Pacifica. The contact stated that the check engine warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer for diagnostic where the contact was advised that the catalytic converter had failed. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure however, the contact was advised that the part needed to complete the repair was on back order. The failure mileage was 90,000. The current mileage was 91,000. Kmj.

Noticed a couple of times that the car hesitated when merging on to highway or accelerating on the highway. Today however, it did that in town, going about 35 mph and then stalled, check engine light came on and smoke came out from under the hood. Now it won't even start.

After replacing a both motor mounts in July of 2012. They broke again in November 2012!! this time it was so bad that when I turned the corner the engine died and would not start back up. Eventually after trying to turn it over so many time the battery died. We had to have it towed to the shop after the holidays to find out how much it would cost to fix ($1200) and exactly what the issue was. The tech informed me that besides the mounts being broke, when I turned the corner the engine lifted and cut thru all of the wires leading to the failure of the car's power control module. This resulted in a loss of speedometer, other electrical functions, and the loss of three ignition coils. I just want to know why they keep making "rubber" engine mounts if the damn things are useless in the first place? there has to be a reason all these cars are having the same issue and if I had known about this before I financed this "pos", I would never have put my childrens lives in danger. !! I had the car fixed and everything was going fine until last night, once again! I was driving on the highway and some stupid person slammed on her brakes in front of me so I hit mine and when I did my car lunged forward and I heard the god awful "pop" sound again!!! now I am back to square one and within a years time this car will have had 3 sets of motor mounts put on it. Someone please tell me there is not a defect somewhere, because whoever handles these issues at daimler/Chrysler needs to drive one of these cars for themselves and see what we have been dealing with for so long. Also, another issue is the check engine light and it has to do with a very small leak inside the gas tank. I have been told this is a recall, but have not been able to get anyone to fix it. I just want some answers, more so for my kids sake so I can try and get it fixed completely or a new car so they are out of harms way.

The contact owns a 2006 Chrysler Pacifica. The contact stated that the front subframe and cross member were rusted. The vehicle was taken to a dealer where it was diagnosed that the engine cradle needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact also stated that while the vehicle on, there was a fuel odor and the check engine warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who diagnosed that the fuel pump and the fuel tank needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired. The contact stated that while driving approximately 40 mph, there was smoke coming from the front of the vehicle. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic where it was diagnosed that the rear, the lower front, and the front upper motor mounts needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired; however, the failure recurred. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 90,000.

While driving at speeds of 10-35 mph, the oil and esp lights would illuminate, then the engine will simply cut off / stall. We have to put on the emergency flasher while in traffic, put the vehicle in neutral or park and restart. No engine light. We brought the Pacifica in to the Dodge dealership 5 times and they could not find any codes. They tried updating the software on the ecm which did not help. Then, the dealership said the motor mounts were bad and the torque of the engine was pulling on the front wiring harness(ES), causing the stalling issue. We had all 3 (front, rear, upper) engine/motor mounts replaced and the issue still happens every time we try to drive the car. The dealership has the car again and said the front motor mount still looks like it is bad even though it was replaced 4 days ago. Based on what I've read in the NHTSA database and the Dodge dealership telling me that motor mounts go out on a lot of Pacificas, this is happening to a lot of 2007 Pacifica owners. Chrysler should absolutely recall the motor mounts on this vehicle and provide a more reliable replacement motor mount with a robust design at no charge to all Pacifica owners. My wife has reported that she has almost been rear ended several times as a result of suddenly stalling while driving. To have this vehicle completely stall out while my wife is taking my 3 kids to school or other activities could cause a crash and is potentially life threatening. I just want this issue to be resolved. The Pacifica is a well designed car and we love the interior but we need reliable transportation.

Obtained car brand new in 2006, yr later had to replace engine, was said they gave us a new one, prior to that we had sunroof issue that still persist to this day 6years later. . . Electrical off. One minute you have gas and next minute literally fuel light is on. . Fast forward a tad 2007 stalling problems,. . . Fast forward even more 30,000miles later. . . . Stalling allllllllot,especially while I'm driving with my kids. Making a u-turn and just simply parking into a space no go. . Gas cap light is on, check engine light on. . . . Currently vehicle is at dealership which was charging us $2,632. 00 to fix problems, besides overcharging ridiculously, Chrysler offered to pay most of bill after doing research and realizing we were getting ripped off, a two day job is now turned into 1week, no vehicle, no loaner. . 6yrs. Later failed emissions test is what prompted me to take it to a dealership. . . Now I cannot pass an emissions test nor register my vehicle @ end month>( today). Would like to trade, however they low balled me & said $4,000. They cannot get car to reset, and still could not find out why it is stalling. After letting dealership know I have an open case seems like they are singing a different tune. . . Still no car/ no fix. . .
