Headlamps - the headlamps had to be replaced due to light beams not coming through the clear plastic cover. The cover became cloudy and visibility was limited which caused safety concerns. The Chrysler dealership tried to clean but was not successful. Tire sensors - a year ago, we had an issue with the message center not responding to the tires. The Chrysler dealership installed 1 tire sensor and several months later a new message center panel had to be replaced. A year later, we are replacing the other three sensors. We are told by the Chrysler dealership that the batteries only last several years. They claim that these sensors are goverment regulated. Why are we putting parts into american made cars that have to be replaced every several years that cost $100 for each sensor plus labor. Either Chrysler needs to produce a better sensor that lasts longer or the government should provide rebates since this is regulatory. These car issues should be considered a safety issue and reviewed for potential liabilities that can cause harm to the driver.

First of all we purchased our 2004 Chrysler pacificia a little over two years ago and after about 2 weeks I noticed a visibility issue. At first I thought it was simply "new car" adjustment issues. However, this issue on "visibility" never went away. The first incident occurred backing up in my bank parking lot. . . Bam! where did that pole come from? cost $850. My deductible $500. The second occurrence happened in my driveway. Again backing up. This time the coast was clear before I got into the car. Next thing I heard [as I was looking back was a crunch. Between $5 and $8k damage to the other vehicle. Oh I wasn't going any more than 5 mph! thing is even after the accident I still didn't see the car when I looked back to see what the ?xo$@ happened! I have been a excellent driver up until the purchase of this vehicle? knowing that this has been an issue, visibility, I've remained cautious with this vehicle. Oops forgot my damages were$1950. Non-the-less, today I have the privilege of paying higher insurance premiums. Don't get me started with on the road issues. My question is simple yet serious to consider. Should we have to drive in fear of wondering if today will be yet another accident/incident before Chrysler will do something about the pac. ? in fact maybe it will take a needless fatality before someone will become attentive. As a consumer I have only so many resources to exhaust. After that and because of the political battle one would encounter I am left with only the option to add my complaint to this list.

Visibility we have had 6 parking lot collisions since acquiring our car in 2003. The visibility when maneuvering is terrible. We have parked in the same parking lot for 24 years in a variety of cars and SUV's and have never had a collision. In this car, we have had collisions resulting from poor visibility when pulling in to park, but more so when backing up. The blind spots are significant and dangerous. So far, only other cars have been damaged but our concern is for pedestrians or children that may be behind us yet remain unseen when attempting to back up. The dealer says they have had numerous complaints but there is nothing to do. They did offer to sell us a parking assist sensor system but that's all. The cust satisfaction representative at Chrysler said he had not had any complaints like this. He also said he could not view any other reps info- he was just one person in a huge company. When I asked for his supervisor, he said supervisors don't take calls. This car has serious design flaws and Chrysler will not correct them. We are concerned about the safety of ourselves and others. We can't wait for our lease to expire in oct 2006, until then we are very worried about using this car. I can't ever envision purchasing another Chrysler product after this lack of commitment to vehicle safety.
