2006 Chrysler Pacifica -- axle clanks when I lift my foot off gas pedal when slowing down in traffic and then put foot on gas pedal at any speed.. took in to Chrysler dealer and they said need new axle which will cost $1000 plus tax approx. Said this is common to Pacifica's and my problem was not as loud and as bad as other Pacifica's they have seen and worked on. I don't see why I have to pay for this repair when this is "common to Pacifica's". in fact my own mechanic looked at it and said the very same thing --- why wasn't vehicle recalled. What can I do" I don't have $1200 to fix this. And if Chrysler mechanics say this is "quirk of the Pacifica's", then why is the repair on me" I'm worried this will get to the point where I cant drive the car.

After 1 hr of highway driving, turned in parking lot, car made strange noise on turning, seemed to not want to move forward. Parked veh for the day. Upon return to vehicle tried to back out of spot, car made same noise, stopped, checked all fluids, checked under car/in engine. Nothing visible, drove vehicle across parking lot, heard loud noise, parked again, visible trail of fluid and puddle under vehicle. Called for tow. Tow truck driver backed vehicle up to get on flatbed, several large metal pieces fell from under vehicle. Veh towed to dealership. Service at dealership determined that power transfer unit had disintegrated, metal housing and gears came apart from inside out, disintegration also destroyed transmission with metal pieces and filings. Vehicle has approx 50,000 miles-mostly highway miles. 2005 Pacifica has 70,000 mi warranty, the 2007 has lifetime power train warranty. This 2006 has 36,000 mile warranty. Chrysler customer service will not assist with cost of repair or stand behind their vehicle. What did they know in 2006 that made them not warranty their vehicle or its parts past 36000 miles? repairs are in excess of $5,000 on a 3 year old vehicle due to manufacturer defect.

Failure of cv joint resulting in a right front broken axle. The vehicle had just been to the dealer and had a 30,000 mile service which supincluded inspection of cv joints. The actual mileage was just under 30,000 at the time, which seem early for such a serious problem.
