We were about to turn left onto a busy highway. Pulled into traffic and vehicle stalled with 2 adults and 4 children in the car. While stuck in the middle of the high way with oncoming traffic from both sides we started honking the horn and waving traffic to stop. Husband noticed a blinking -??D-?? light on the shifter knob and an alert on the dash that read something like -??shift to park-??. Due to the incline of the road we rolled backwards off the highway. We luckily were not hit by oncoming traffic but completely terrified by the situation. Had that highway been as busy as it usually is we would be dead. Shifted back to park. Was then able to drive vehicle the half mile home. Brought vehicle into dealership where after 2 weeks they were unable to to recreate issue and found nothing wrong. Stalling with no prior warning is a known recall for this vehicle but the recall was supposedly fixed on January 11th of 2018. This did not fix the stalling issue obviously. We refuse to drive vehicle again and take the chance of killing our family. After many conversations with Chrysler care we are 3 weeks out from incident and they have been of no help. This vehicle is not safe to be driven. After reading many forums there are many complaints of this recall not fixing the issue. Chrysler needs to be held accountable. I refuse to be a test dummy for this vehicle.

Vehicle motor or transmission lurches and stalls, won't stay in gear, stops for no reason in traffic, slams into gear. But won't accelerate. Arrigo chrylser dealership in fort pierce Florida stated they repaired issue with computer reset or reprogramming but did not resolve. Continues to stall and lurch and lose power.

The start/stop feature says to service the system and it effects how the vehicle drives. There-??s no pick up and the RPMs are messed up. I have had it to the dealership 5 times and they-??ve fixed a few things but the problem persists.

Our 2017 Chrysler Pacifica was stopped in traffic on Clinton River Road, Sterling Heights Michigan. When we engaged the gas pedal the vehicle would not start. The vehicle has the engine stop/start feature. By that we mean when the vehicle stops the engine stops and restarts when the gas pedal is depressed. Because we were blocking traffic, the police called for a tow truck which costs us $100. The dealer diagnosed the problem to be the starter with an estimate of $750, Because we had purchased the MOPAR extended warranty our cost was $200. The dealer also informed us that there is no way to permanently disable the stop/start feature. We believe this feature is a safety issue because we never now when the vehicle will not start after stopping and could cause a major traffic jam as it for us. Also, without the extended warranty the total cost would have exceeded $800. Thank you

Vehicle will not give power on take off and will not give power at 45-55 mph. This has caused many issues where accidents could have been caused. Took to multiple dealerships and they both said it was the way the 9-speed automatic behaved. A vehicle should not behave in a way that is a safety concern. They could not fix the issue because it is the vehicle itself.

This vehicle is a handicap conversion van modified by revability / vmi in the modification - revability has replaced the factory fuel tank with one of their own design and construction. In doing so - they use the Chrysler factory components such as the fuel pump, fuel gauge sender unit, emissions connections, etc. However - the fuel gauge has never worked properly since I purchased the van and it gives misleading information about the fuel level. It registers only 3/4 full on the dash when in fact the tank is full. If you try to add any more fuel (as I found out when I first purchased the van) - it affects the emissions controls severely and makes the van un-drivable; in fact the engine will stall unexpectedly in traffic which is a severe hazard. Further - the low tank level is unpredictable so you are never sure when to refill, if the fuel gets too low then the engine can also stop in traffic. The company is well aware of this problem but cannot fix it. I have had it to the original selling dealership (jay hatfield mobility in lee's summit Missouri) several times as revability said the repairs were covered under their manufactures warranty. The dealership has been unable to fix the problem and has since not renewed their contract with revability. So the problem still exists and the powertrain 'check engine' light comes on periodically - which jay hatfield mobility said they had nothing to do with and would not do any further repairs. My wife is handicapped and in daily rehab treatment - so I need this van every day and need it fixed properly - however the van conversion manufacturer has no instructions or information that they can supply for a correct repair. I believe that revability / vmi should be responsible for fixing this problem properly or replacing this van as it is / can be a safety hazard to operate without a properly functioning fuel gauge.

The power steering would go out, a notice would come up stating " power steering unavailable", then the power steering would work for about 60 seconds and go out again and then repeat the problem. This just starting happening on 4/10/21. We had just gotten into the van and started driving, we went about 1/2 mile, it happened a total of 4 times. We turned around and brought the vehicle back home and it happened 2 more times

My van has 54,000 miles it's not very old and the transmission is skipping (up shifting, down shifting, and highway driving) I keep taking it to the dealer ship they keep running updates on it and it's still skipping. The van has a very rough idle (keeps feeling like it's going to turn off while it's in park) something is wrong with it and the deal ship thinks it's okay. Well it's not. The front hood has bubbles in the paint and it's still a new vehicle how am I to think I will be owning this van for atleast 10 more years and it's becoming rusted already.

Although the problem is not there with every acceleration, the van seems to be tugging, then jumping/pushing forward, and then resuming acceleration. This usually happens after being stopped and accelerating to go at around 20mphs. I have also had this happen when turning and merging on to traffic around town which has caused oncoming cars to have to decelerate due to my acceleration delay. I've had the car checked out by the dealership and have been told that they are unable to replicate the problem, yet I'm driving around town worried that I will get in a wreck because of the random failure to accelerate smoothly. What's even more concerning is that there are thousands of complaints like mine online, yet dealerships are unable to replicate the issue (one example: Https://M.carcomplaints.com/Chrysler/Pacifica/2017/drivetrain/power_train.shtml). Not sure what else to do.

30,390while cruising on interstate, (2/6/21, 3:17 pm, drizzling, 55 degrees F, at 70 mph in cruise control) instrument panel goes black, engine shuts off, power steering goes off, rt passenger window descends all the way, wipers go off, cruise goes off, gear indicator switches (on it's own from drive to neutral, to park. Coasting to side left of side of the (under construction) shoulder (rt shoulder is blocked by jersey barriers) instrument cluster comes back on. I shift from park to neutral, to drive, with no effect on drivability. I stopped off the roadway and shut off the ignition. Instrument cluster has battery and fcw warning lights on. There is a distinct smell of an electrical fire. I check under the hood to look for obvious fire sources. None are apparent. I checked the battery connection. This appears as normal for this vehicle, not tight ' but not loose either. I checked the fuse box. I did not have a fuse indicator tool with me and did not attempt to pull fuses. Seeing no obvious fire sources I shut the hood. Five minutes after stopping I tried the ignition again and the car started. The rt passenger window was to 3' short of closed, then it stopped. I pulled back on the highway and resumed the trip. The fcw warning light was still on. Cruise control was unavailable. The driver's side mirror warning indicator was on. On 2/7/21 I checked the car. All power devices on the rt front door were not active. I checked the fuses and determined that at least one had failed (F47). I attempted to replace the fuse. In doing so the rt passenger window immediately returned to the fully closed position, the fuse blew as I put it in, the smell of burning electrical wire was apparent inside the cab, but not under the hood.

Two issues. First, when accelerating, sometimes the transmission disengages for about 1-2 seconds and then reengages and causes a sudden jerk motion forward. Happens 3-4 times a month. This will happen on both city streets and highways. This has started over 3 years ago. Second, the engine will stall/shut off at random times on city streets. It occurs when going over a speed bump and also occurs when making a U-turn. It takes quickly shifting back to park, then pressing brake and start button to start back up. This has started happening within the last 3-6 months.

Had trouble starting car. Battery was checked and said to be good. Issue stopped. 2 months later car is completely dead when I go to crank one morning. No indicator lights ever came on. Husband charged battery and it crank but still was sluggish in doing so. Again battery was tested and except not fully charged it was ok. Voltage is now all over the place. Jumping between 10 and 14.7 constantly. If I come to a complete stop it goes dead. It is currently sitting in my driveway as we try to figure out what to do.
