Shut down engine while driving.

Entering a busy parking lot, after making a sharp left hand turn, the SUV stalled and died. This was not the first time, it has also happened to my wife twice before.

- Coconut Creek, FL, USA
On 19 October 2005, I had just completed a left hand turn and came to a somewhat abrupt stop at a stop light. After the light turned green, I hit the gas but the car would not move. I noticed that I lost my power steering for the steering wheel felt heavy. The dashboard lights were on but I did not notice any warning lights on the dashboard. The cd player was still playing nor did it pause when this occurred. Uncertain as to whether the car was off or not, I turned the key to the "off" position and restarted the engine. The vehicle operated properly after the incident. However, I became concerned about driving on the highway at higher speeds fearing that it would happen again.
- Bronx, NY, USA
Engine stall while performing turns. My wife has been close to be involve in an accident in the last couple times. The dealer says they can not do nothing until Chrysler investigates the problem. Maybe Chrysler is waiting until someone gets involve in an accident to resolve the issue.
- Augusta, GA, USA
Stalls during hard turns like into a parking space.
- New Fairfield, CT, USA
Brand new 2005 Pacifica with 140 miles and again at 612 miles. Engine stalled at low speeds turning into either parking space or parking lot. Put in park and re-started. Could not immediately duplicate. After first incident service manager at dealership stated that the car was "learning" my driving style. Said if it happened again to call back and schedule service call. Will be on the phone with service manager tomorrow.
- Smyrna , GA, USA
On 8-6-05, there was an electrical problem. There was a fuse in the incorrect spot. The dealership fixed the fuse problem. On 8-12-05 the steering wheel froze and the vehicle turned off. The consumer was in traffic when this occurred, but there was no accident. He was able to get it to start back and drove it home. He had it towed to the dealer, and they could not find the problem. The consumer got the vehicle back from the dealership and he has not driven it since. He does not feel that the vehicle is safe to drive.
