2004 Chrysler Pacifica. Consumer states several problems with vehicle related to the engine, air conditioner blower and alternator the consumer stated when the vehicle was first purchased, the air conditioner blower was not working properly and had to be replaced. Later that year, there was a whining sound coming from the front of the vehicle near the engine, however the dealer was unable to find the source and to this day, the noise is still present. The consumer stated there was a whining sound coming from or near the power steering pump which was eventually replaced, however the noise continued. The motor mounts, tie rods and rocker arms were replaced.

This vehicle has had the siphoning hoses to the gas tank replaced three times. Which all three failed all three times. The fuel pump has been changed. The whole fuel tank has been replaced. The gas gauge fluctuates from half tank to empty. The check engine light comes on every week. After resetting by the serviceman it comes back on with in a week. All of these safety defects have been repaired however it remains doing all of the above leaving this vehicle to be very unsafe. Please note this so that any others may have this to refer to.

On Oct 20,2006 my third (emission failure) has happened to my Chrysler Pacifica 2004 fwd model (48,535 miles). This model had problems in the past-most have been corrected. The first was engine stalling, which was repaired with updated software. The next was my A/C control/HVAC unit which would not light, noise from bushings was replaced. Flickering of dash lights time to time is an issue-the current major problem is that it will not pass emissions on three occasions it has failed next visit will be to the dealer on Oct 30,2006- nys inspector/mechanic has told me that the pc in albany in nys may not read all codes all places show -oxygen sensor and cat sensor as being down and not ready on the print report-third mechanic thinks it is under warranty which si should be and that it may be the ECM or bus section of the module-this is based on a scan test and a obd2 system. Failures = 3 nys inspection fails -4th will be at the dealership-consequences hoping to get it repaired as soon as possible.

My 2004 Pacifica was one of the first manufactured. It has had a recall already on the fuel line. The ac works sporadically. The ac panel blacks out and the unit ceases to work. It leaks into the front passenger's floor. It has a flaw in the design and collects leaves in the ac filter which costs $78 to clean. And to think I traded a new Cadillac for this vehicle because I thought I would be safer....
