I was driving in a neighborhood area approaching my community service event at a boys and girls club. Searching for street parking, I was about to slow down releasing my accelerator pedal and suddenly the car stalls. I safely steer to the right and make a stop in attempt to move out of the way in a busy street. The screen on my car instructs me to put my gear back to park in order to continue, I shift it to park as it says on the screen and the screen instruction remains the same. The start button light is indicating that my car is still on so I shift my gear to drive and stepped on my accelerator pedal. The engine revs, but it does not move. I put my gear back to park and pushed the button to turn the engine off. Then I push the start button again to turn it back on. This time I shift it to drive and I am finally able to drive forward. I was stuck in the stalled position for a few minutes in a panic trying to figure out what was going on. Imagine if this happened on a freeway or a very busy major street. It would be very dangerous to me and my family as well as other drivers around. I demand a safety recall for the safety of my family and others. Updated 8/16/18

We purchased the vehicle at a local dealership in July 2017. In August, vehicle lost power steering communication unexpectedly. Dealership was able to restore power steering, however, they were not entirely sure of the cause. In October, the vehicle lost electrical communication and was stuck on a busy highway off-ramp after stopping at a stop light. We were unable to move the car for 30 minutes. Dealership unable to determine the cause and advised us that the car company said they needed to give us the car back. The car has been in the shop for a total 22 of days and nothing was fixed the second time to prevent this from happening again.

While stopped at a traffic light, the ess feature of the vehicle typically stops the engine to reduce CO2 emissions and supposedly save on gas. As soon as I release the brakes, the engine re-starts and off I go. However, in this instance, after I let go of the brakes, the vehicle began rolling backwards, which caused me to step on the brakes right away or I would have hit the car behind me. I let go of the brakes again, then the engine restarted as usual. This is very concerning and a potential safety issue.

With only 7300 miles on the odometer, as of this writing 11-21-17, my Pacifica has failed to start on 4 separate occassions. With each event, all the warning lights on the main and radio dash lit up and flashed on and off. Also, the wiper blades came on and stayed on, not being able to shut off with the designated switch. As well, numerous "warning windows" popped up on the center dash info screen...service electronic stability, park brake unavailable, blind spot alert unavailable service required, service tire pressure system, park sense unavailable, service air bag system, warning bells constantly chiming, entire dash goes completely dark and radio turns off and on by itself. The last attempt to start, 11-20-17, after numerous times in an hours time, the engine did start only to shut down almost immediately. The vehicle has been towed to my local Chrysler dealership twice now and is still there as of this writing. On the first event when towed in, I was told that a service writer also could not attempt to start the vehicle, but when the service tech tried, it did start. I was told to come pick up my vehicle that there were no error codes found and my vehicle was operating normally. I really dread the day when my Pacifica dies while driving, as that apparantly has happened to many dozens of other 2017 Pacificas already, placing the occupants in extreme danger. I just read an article in the New York times with regards to this dangerous issue and I near the point of demanding that Chrysler buy back my vehicle. I do have multiple videos taken on my cell phone but do not have the ability to upload them just yet.

After sitting at a red light I attempted to drive forward when the light changed and the car would not move and I got a message on the drivers console that said "shift to P to drive" I attempted to shift but the knob wouldn't turn and so I had to turn the car off, shift to park then turn the car back on and then shift back into drive to move forward. This has happened twice now within the span of 3 days. The car has roughly 4.5K miles on it...updated 11/14/17 updated 11/16/2017

My wife was driving home from work and slowing down to approach a red light. As she was slowing, the vehicle experienced total systems failure. The touch screen display became scrambled, steering was unresponsive and the vehicle slowed to a stop. My wife was unable to accelerate, shift gears or turn the vehicle off. Three police officers pushed the van into a nearby parking lot. During this time no one was able to turn the vehicle off or shift gears. Finally, the car essentially rebooted itself and all systems seemed to return to normal. The car was towed to the dealership on 10-27-17, 12 days after purchase with approximately 400 miles. The car has been at the dealership for 6 days now and no problems have been found. They have not been able to recreate the problem and no error codes were found. This means the car has now been in the shop for 1/3 of the time that has passed since we first drove off the lot. This failure is disturbingly similar to numerous other complaints that have been filed. Thank goodness my wife was slowing down when this happened or it could have caused a serious accident and even death. I refuse to allow my wife or children back in this vehicle with something so catastrophic happening after so few miles. I have opened a case with Chrysler and waiting for them to get back to me. I hope a formal investigation is started soon and Chrysler acknowledges the issue to protect the safety of everyone.

Van was in drive, but stopped at an intersection on a city street waiting to turn left. When light changed I attempted to accelerate and engine did not engage. Blue light on gear indicator started flashing. I was able to put car in park then shift into drive again, but there was lag when accelerating. I drove out of intersection and into parking lot. Shut off car then restarted and drove it directly to dealer. Still waiting for problem to be assessed. Check engine light had come on one day prior to this incident...updated 11/08/17 updated 11/13/2017

While driving, the engine stops and the dashboard and shifter lights start blinking. The message "vehicle must be in park to shift gears" displays on the dashboard. This is incredibly dangerous and has happened 3 times now. Our family was almost struck by oncoming traffic. Updated 11/9/2017

While driving down the road my vehicle experienced complete loss of power. I had to manually steer it to the side of the road. After several minutes it restarted and ran fine. This happened right at 6000 miles and again at 6973 miles, same scenario with both. The doors and radio is also acting odd. I beleive there is some sort of electrical issue. Both times before the vehicle powered down I was going 70 +miles an hour, heat came all the way on and power shut down. My star # is 1728582. Chrysler told me maybe I was driving to fast"??" vehicle us only 3 months old. Dealership confirmed they had another Pacifica in the shop for the same reason...updated 11/07/17 updated 11/09/2017

Sudden engine failure and power loss while driving. Error messages displayed on dash indicating failure of electronic stability control and transmission, along with check engine light. This issue started intermittently, but became so severe that it would happen multiple times in a short <10 mile trip. To recover, the car must be stopped, turned off, and then restarted....updated 11/03/17. Updated 11/9/2017

The following issue has happened twice to my wife while driving our new Chrysler Pacifica 2017 limited. She was at a busy highway intersection waiting for her light to turn green and started to go then the engine shut off while half way in the intersection. The screen stated that car must be in park to put it in drive. She had to put the vehicle in park while in the intersection and then push the button to start the vehicle back up. Each time this has happened when starting the vehicle back up it has a rough idle for about 30 seconds and then everything is functional again. We took the vehicle into the shop the next day, told the technician what had happened who in turn hooked the car up to the computer. They checked the car and it didn't have any codes on it, as if nothing happened. No software updates were needed on the car as well that could potential fix this issue. After the second time this occurred the dealership installed a "black box" to capture the issue if it occurred again, however during the week we had it on the vehicle it didn't happen again. Since this time our vehicle has been in the shop numerous times for the transmission. We have had 2-3 computer upgrades which was supposed to solve the transmission issues however there are still times where the car jerks when we accelerate. We do not feel safe with this vehicle and have done some research. There are quite a lot of people experiencing the exact same problem. Chrysler needs to address this issue before a fatal accident occurs.
