My car purchased in 2018 from reed Jeep chrylser in overland park Kansas. In September of 2020, the vehicle was in hybrid/electric mode and stopped running as we were driving down the street. We were driving slowly and able to coast to the right side of the road and were able to safely leave it on a residential street. The car would not start and it was not an issue related to the starter or battery. We had the car towed to the dealership. The problem was reviewed by the engineering team with Chrysler and it was found to be a computer electrical hybrid component. Originally, Chrysler advised they had no replacement part anywhere in the country. After two weeks, they advised they would be able to get a component from the component manufacturer but that it would take time. The car remained in the service center for at least two additional weeks. They replaced the regular battery and performed recall on other components during this time as well. A little over a month later, the same failure/problem occurred. Fortunately, we were again on a residential street and leave it. A couple of hours later, we were able to start it and get it back to our residence. We tried to charge it using the 240V charger we had but the car would not take any additional charge even though not fully charged. Three days later, we returned the car to the dealership with the same complaint and were told that they could not find any problem with the car. Our overarching concern is safety, as there is no warning as to when the car will shut down.

The back up camera only works intermittently. Sometimes the screens flickers as if it is shortening out. Other times the screen freezes, displaying the initial scene behind the vehicle for the duration of the vehicle being in reverse. Sometimes the screen is blank with only the guiding lines visible and other times it is completely blank with a statement at the top stating the back up camera is unavailable. This is a major concern for us due to having small children, going to the school, playground, etc. The dealership said they could replace the camera for $400 but the issue seems to be a short in the wiring somewhere. As the camera sometimes works. One of the pictures attached show the camera frozen with a white vehicle on the back up screen. The white vehicle that is displayed is actually in front of the van at the time of the picture. This is a screen shot from a video.

My van on multiple occassion has stalled in the middle of city intersections. While driving my car will have an electrical meltdown. All different warning messages will appear on dash, warning dings will go off, my wipers will go on without me turning them on, when I push the gas it will not drive. On one occasion the car accelerated without pressing the gas or if the gas was pressed it would accelerate more than the pedal was being pressed. All my buttons on my dash including A/C, auto start, back up camera/sensors will not respond. Its as though my car just dies. This occurrence has no common scenario that brings on the malfunction. I 've had times when it malfunctioned weeks apart and this last occurrence it was a year in between occurrences. I was told on a Chrysler forum to check my PCM. My batteries have been tested and passed. I currently do not have my aux battery installed as I do not want/like my autostart feature. This accident occurred all 5 times with my aux battery installed. My dealership said "too many electrical parts to check" and "we cant duplicate the problem/get error code to diagnose so take the van back till it happens again and call us while its happening and drive it in". first its unsafe and unpredictable. I have tried getting this fixed and they can't even/wont fix it or buy it back. No lemon law as I am second owner, not purchased new and the problems started happening at 34000 miles right before warranty expired. This vehicle is unsafe and Chrysler won't fix it/don't know how. No remedy after 2 years and 6/7 shop visits. I have opened a case with fca twice and they threatened me to pick up vehicle or they would charge me for the rental I had. Others have experienced this. Look at Chrysler Pacifica and Voyager van on facebook.

Vehicle was purchased new in March 2019 off the showroom floor from a dealer in morton, il. It had radio problems from the beginning and was noted on my first service visit 6/4/19. The radio would freeze on the loading screen and never operate. I was told to wait for software updates regardless of the amount of pictures and videos I showed the team members of what was going on with the radio freezing and rebooting, not to mention the wi-fi issues. Fast forward to July of this year and the whole radio and associated safety features went out. I was driving 1,000 miles from my new house in nc back to il for a visit and 90 minutes into the drive the radio and climate controls all went out. I was then driving in the rain, in the mountains, without a way to defog my windshield. I'm very familiar will pulling the fuse to reset the radio (as noted in other service visits), but even that didn't fix it this time. For much of the drive I had heat instead of ac in the driver's area. Cameras were not functional during this time and the lane assist and cross traffic alert was intermittent. I arrived to central il late at night on Thursday, July 23rd, now 600 miles outside the 36K warranty. I brought the vehicle in to pull codes on Friday, as instructed. I was told no one could help me at that point and to just come for my oil change on the 29th. On the 29th, my comment on the radio wasn't even acknowledge by the service rep and there are no notes on the service receipt about it. On Friday, August 28th, the radio started rebooting every 3 to 4 minutes. I have no use of safety features or cameras. The battery then died from rebooting the computers regardless of operation. Both sliding doors were disabled. The back hatch doesn't open at all. Uconnect safety location features were not working.

Battery failure of both batteries with any advanced warning via icon in the dashboard. I was on an exit ramp off a bust parkway with husband, daughter, and 2 granddaughters in the car. My husband and I are seniors. Dead car. Hazards didn't even work. Kids climbed over the seats to get out the front door. Sliding doors didn't work. Scary occurrence. Could have been far worse if I was going 60mph on the parkway. Car was ultimately towed to the dealer. They told me I neede to get new batteries every 2 to two and a half years. That's a short life for a battery. Chrysler must use junky batteries.

Since I leased the vehicle, the screen of the radio don't work properly, the automatic doors sometimes don't work, the automatic doors lock don't work properly either and the transmission do a harsh kick. I have been reporting to Chrysler the conditions and malfunctions of the vehicle and they have never fixed, always says that everything is ok. I have to drive and pay a lemon car with no remedy. Every time that I drive my car on the highway, the transmission have issues, and also when I drive my car and I need to use the camera to see the back of the street, the screen doesn't work.

While driving on a freeway, the engine started losing power and would not react to the gas pedal. In addition, the gear shift would not change when I tried to change it from drive to neutral. The car would purposely be slowed down by the engine as it was stuck in drive position. The created a dangerous situation as it was difficult to control car to move it into the emergency lane. After pulling over, smoke started coming out of the engine and vents. I was then unable to turn off the engine as the power button would not react when pressed. Per the dealership, the catalytic converters was clogged and overheated so needed to be replaced as well as the oxygen sensor. This should not have needed to be repaired in a car that is only 1.5 years old and created a very dangerous situation on the freeway.

I have had several instances of my car accelerating forward while driving through city traffic. It almost feels like the vehicle is not properly changing gears or the start stop feature is making the vehicle stop and then start by jumping forward. It is a terrifying feeling when you feel like you do not have control of the car for a half second when it does this. Unfortunately it is an intermittent issue and I cannot replicate it on command.

Car will stall out while it's in drive, but braking. Yesterday it did it as I was turning left in the middle of an intersection. It stalled and turned off the engine flashing 'fcw/ lanesense unavailable restart required.' I then will have to shift to park and restart the car. This has happened several times and Chrysler has not fixed the issue.
