Pacifica

  • 85,000 miles
The car continues to stall at low speeds. We have taken to mechanic and they do not find any service alerts, and weren't able to duplicate on a test drive. It is starting to pick up in frequency to where it is doing it every other day now. I also called the service group at the chrsyler dealer I purchased it from, and they said they can only do what I had already done with the other mechanic shop. I went to the Chrysler forum to post and see if anyone else had experienced this, and see numerous postings of this issue over the years. I am very concerned with the safety of my family, as when the car stalls, it locks up and I lose control. I have to pull over and restart.

Pacifica 6-cyl

  • 76,124 miles
I have a 2007 Chrysler Pacifica touring 4.0. the vehicles lights will flicker, the air conditioner and radio turn off and without notice the vehicle will lose total power. No power steering, no hazard lights nothing. I have been stranded in the middle of the busy intersection. I took my vehicle to the Chrysler dealership to get serviced 3 times I paid $713 and they still have not fixed the problem. I have emailed a complaint with Chrysler headquarters. I was given a case manager who does not call me back. This vehicle shuts off without warning and can cause death or injury to myself, my family and others and Chrysler can care less about it.

Warrant of merchantability- implied warranty that states a vehicle will run like it's supposed to run, applying to the basic functions of the car. The buyer must prove a defect was present at the time of purchase. 'car did not start X2 at dealer and required a jump start- I was informed it was a result of being low on gas and having sat out in the hot sun. Uniform commercial code- dealer disclaimed a warrant of mechanic ability, giving the consumer the right to challenge the disclaimer using the federal uniform commercial (ucc). The ucc can be used to cancel the sale of a used car. Unfair and deceptive acts and practices (udap law) - these laws can be used even if the car is sold as is, as long as the dealer is guilty of a verbal deception or failure to disclose information about the vehicle. '2007 Chrysler Pacifica 'I purchased the car less than 1 month ago and have driven less than 2000 miles. I am extremely upset because I believe that heritage knowingly sold me an unsound car.

The contact owns a 2007 Chrysler Pacifica. The contact stated that the vehicle loses power while driving between 15 to 60 mph. The failure has occurred seven times since the vehicle was purchased.

The computer was reset at that time. On the fourth visit to the dealer, three loose electrical grounds were found and tightened; however, the failure continued.

I purchased my 2007 Chrysler Pacifica on 06-05-07, within three days I noticed that everytime I locked the car and open it, the driver's seat and both side mirrors would adjust themselves on their own. I took the car back and the dealer attempted to correct the problem and eventual disconnected the computer that controlled the seat adjustment. Needless to say this did not work. On July 13, 2007, while at work, I was doing home visits. I was running behind and forgot to readjust the mirrors when I got in the car. While backing up I hit a mail box causing $1,000 damage to the car. I went back to the dealer and informed them of the accident, they told me that they would have to contact the manufacturer as they did not know how to fix the problem. To date I am still waiting to hear from someone. If February of this year, I asked that the problem be fixed, to give me a rental or another car as I was having knee surgery in March, nothing was done and nothing has been done as yet.
