Was using park assist and the car did not park itself correctly and hit another car. While using park assist feature the car started to move too fast and the sterling wheel did not turn the car correctly. The car was moving so fast, there was no time to press the brake. In the result our car hit another parked car and jumped on the curb. In the result our rear bumper and rear door were damaged. We contacted Chrysler right away to tell what had happened, the representative told us to contact our insurance and then insurance will do investigation. When we contacted our insurance the representative said that Chrysler is the one who does the investigation. After that Chrysler was contacted by us numerous times, each time different representative, each time some information was missing from the case that investigation team could not start to do their investigation. So, each time I spoke with the representative (I have their names) we were adding missing information, and creating new case number. It took almost a month for the investigator to contact us to do the car inspection. By this time the car was fixed thru insurance. After the inspection took place Chrysler did not send us any solution or suggestion if park assist needs to be fixed. The only letter they send stating that since the car was fixed nothing they can do about this issue. So its unclear either all features in this car function properly. I think it's not fair that my insurance had to pay and made this accident as my fault

While driving my 2018 Pacifica in 45 mph traffic on a local road, the car flashed 'stability control' and lost all power. The brakes went hard, the car completely stalled. The display read 'stability control' then disappeared from the screen and it instructed me to put car in park and to restart the car. The second time this happened I was driving 50 mph on a state highway slowing to make a left turn when the vehicle did the exact same thing as stated above.

This morning my 2018 hybrid limited was dead. I purchased it new three weeks ago. It had been plugged in overnight using the 110 charger that came with the van. It would not start, and briefly flashed some kind of service needed warning on the screen. Then the screen turned off and the vehicle repeatedly made a clicking sound. The van was completely unresponsive. I noticed the windshield wipers were ever so slowly in motion back and forth. I checked the switch but the wiper was set to the 'off' position. None of the wiper controls would change the setting. The dealership set me up with a number for Chrysler tow. I was on the phone about 20ft away when suddenly the van started rolling backward down the driveway and into the street! I ran over and checked it and still everything was unresponsive, the wipers no longer moving however the parking brake button, and shifter buttons, and overhead lights were flashing. We had the van towed to the dealership. They said the battery was bad and replaced it. Below is a post about my experience with more information and videos: Https://www.pacificaforums.com/forum/433-2017-Chrysler-Pacifica-phev-hybrid-general-discussion/41697-battery-dies-Pacifica-hybrid-rolls-out-driveway-into-street.html also here is video taken immediately after it rolled. Note the interior lights actively flashing including the parking brake indicator as well as the digital shifter knob lights.

The contact sustained a minor injury that did not require medical attention. A police report was not filed. The vehicle was damaged and driven to Suburban Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram of garden city (734-421-5700, located at 32850 Ford rd, garden city, mi 48135), but the cause of the failure could not be determined.

After driving the van in reverse, the typical process is to stop the van, put it into drive, and begin going forward. Occassionally, however, within a few seconds of shifting into drive the can very abruptly and dangerously engages the emergency parking brake and I become stuck on the road scared to drive and in the middle of traffic! applies to 2018 Chrysler Pacifica hybrid touring L
