2007 Chrysler Pacifica Awd

THE CAR SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING. I TURN THE IGNITION OFF AND IT CRANKS BACK UP. IT DOES THIS ALMOST EVERY OTHER DAY. NO CODES COME ON THE WARNING LIGHTS DO NOT COME ON THE CAR JUST SHUTS OFF. I KNOW THIS IS AN OLDER CAR AND I JUST BOUGHT IT BUT THIS IS A HAZARD CAN CAUSE AN ACCIDENT AND POTENTIALLY KILL SOMEONE. AFTER LOOKING ONLINE THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THESE CARS EVEN THE NEW MODELS AND I CAN'T UNDERSTAND STAND WHY THERE HASN'T BEEN A RECALL TO FIX THIS ISSUE.

07 PACIFICIA WILL JUST DIE WHEN DRIVING AT LOW SPEED. NO WARNING LIGHTS COMES ON. YOU LOSE ALL CONTROL OF THE CAR. YOU CAN PUT THE CAR PARK OR NETURAL IS WILL START. YOU CAN DRIVE FOR COUPLE DAYS AND WILL DO IT AGAIN WITHOUT NOTICE. YOU TAKE TO SHOP AND THEY CAN SCAN IT DO TO NO WARNING LIGHT. THIS HAPPEN WHEN YOU TURN OR GO STRAIGHT AT A SLOW SPEED. THEY HAVE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS FOR THIS AND NO KNOWN ANSWER IT FIX THE PROBLEM. THE CAR ONLY HAS 107000 MILES ON IT

MY DAUGHTER GAVE ME THIS CAR FOR MY BIRTHDAY IN 2007 WITH A RED BOW ON IT. I WAS VERY SURPRISE. AFTER THE FIRST 6 MONTHS I BEGAN HAVING PROBLEMS. THE PROBLEM I AM HAVING NOW IS SOMETHING THAT WAS REPAIRED BEFORE. I HAD THIS ISSUE ABOUT 3 YEARS AGO. WHILE I AM DRIVING, THE CAR JUST SHUT OFF, STALLING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE TRAFFIC. THE STEERING BECOMES VERY HARD. MANY TIMES I WAS IN FEAR OF AN ACCIDENT MANY TIMES. I AM DISAPPOINTED WITH THIS CAR.

I WAS DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 30 MPH WHEN MY POWER STEERING STOPPED WORKING AND I NOTICED MY ENGINE HAD ALSO STOPPED. I STRUGGLED TO STEER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. I TURNED THE KEY OFF (THE ENGINE WAS ALREADY OFF). I WAITED A MINUTE AND STARTED THE VEHICLE WITHOUT A PROBLEM. I DROVE DIRECTLY TO MY MECHANIC WHERE HE COULD NOT FIND A PROBLEM. THIS HAS HAPPENED 2 MORE TIMES (FOR A TOTAL OF 3 TIMES). ALL WHEN I WAS DRIVING BETWEEN 30 - 40 MPH. THE FIRST INDICATION OF A PROBLEM IS WHEN I LOOSE POWER STEERING AND NOTICE THE ENGINE HAS CUT-OUT. *TR

WHILE DRIVING FROM COLD START VEHICLE DIES EVERY MORNING AT LEAST ONE TIME LOOSE POWER STEERING AND BRAKES MAKES IT HARD TO COME TO A STOP OR TURN THIS I SEE IS A PROBLEM WITH OTHERS SOMEONE NEEDS TO GET THIS CHECKED OUT. NO CHECK ENG LIGHT OR ANY WARNING I'M ABLE TO POP IT INTO NEUTRAL AND RESTART BUT AM AFRAID TO LET WIFE DRIVE DUE TO HER LACK OF EXPERIENCE.. *TR

CAR KEPT SHUTTING DOWN REGARDLESS OF SPEED. CHRYSLER SENT SPECIALIST TO DEFLECT SHIP AND REPLACED FUEL PUMPS. VEHICLE CONTINUED TO SHUT DOWN WHILE DRIVING. ATTEMPTED TO DRIVE TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC, BUT CRASHED ON THE WAY. CAR SHUT DOWN ON A CURVE, STEERING FAILED, BRAKES LOCKED HE HIT A TREE. THIS ACCIDENT COULD'VE BEEN A FATALITY. CAR WAS TOTALED! CHRYSLER IS NOT ASSUMING ANY RESPONSIBILITY AND CLOSED THE CASE. I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER ONE!!!! *TR

ABOUT A WEEK PRIOR THE VEH WAS DRIVING VERY SLUGGISH AND WOULD NOT RESUME NORMAL UNTIL REACHING 50MPH, THEN THE NEXT WEEK WHILE DRIVING AT ABOUT 35MPH THE VEH BEGAN SHAKING VERY BAD FORCING ME TO DROP SPEED TO ABOUT 15MPH. TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC AND WAS TOLD I NEEDED A REAR DRIVE SHAFT AND ENGINE MOUNTS AND FROM WHAT I HEAR THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THESE VEHS. DRIVE SHAFT IS WELL OVER $1000.00 NOT TO MENTION LABOR, SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE. *TR

THE VEHICLE SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING. THIS HAS OCCURRED SIX TIMES SINCE FEBRUARY 1, 2014 (A PERIOD OF ABOUT SEVEN WEEKS). EACH TIME I HAVE BEEN LUCKY ENOUGH TO GUIDE THE VEHICLE OFF TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, IN SPITE OF THE LOSS OF STEERING AND BRAKING. THE VEHICLE RESTARTED WITH NO MAJOR PROBLEM EACH TIME. ALSO, THE ENGINE SPONTANEOUSLY REVVED AS THE VEHICLE LOST FORWARD MOMENTUM ON ONE OCCASION (ON A DATE PRECEDING THE FIFTH SHUTOFF EVENT), BUT REGAINED NORMAL OPERATION WITHIN SECONDS. ON THAT OCCASION I TOOK THE VEHICLE IMMEDIATELY TO THE DEALER FOR ANALYSIS; THEY UPDATED A COMPUTER MODULE. THE SHUTOFF HAS OCCURRED TWICE SINCE THE DEALER FIXED THE COMPUTER COMPONENT. ALL EVENTS OCCURRED WITHIN TWO TO FIVE MINUTES OF DRIVING THE CAR AFTER IT HAD BEEN SITTING FOR SEVERAL HOURS (COLD START?). MY RESEARCH SHOWS THAT THIS IS A FREQUENTLY REPORTED PROBLEM WITH THE 2007 PACIFICA, AND THAT THE VEHICLE WAS RECALLED FOR THE PROBLEM IN MODEL YEARS 2004 - 2006. I PROVIDED A PRINTOUT OF MY RESEARCH TO THE DEALER, AND THEY HAVE HAD THE VEHICLE FOR FIVE BUSINESS DAYS WITHOUT BEING ABLE TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM. I REPORTED THE PROBLEM BY PHONE TO CHRYSLER, BUT THEIR COMPLAINT LINE DOES NOT OFFER SOLUTIONS (AND APPARENTLY DOES NOT PROVIDE FEEDBACK). *TR

I WAS DRIVING THE CAR TO THE GAS STATION TO PUT GAS IN IT AND THE CAR SHUT OFF AS I WAS PULLING UP TO THE GAS STATION AND THERE WAS A CAR COMING TOWARDS ME AND THE CAR HAD THE RIGHT OF WAY. I HAD TO LITERALLY STOP MY CAR AND RUN TO THE FRONT OF THE CAR THAT WAS COMING TOWARDS ME IN ORDER TO PREVENT AND ACCIDENT OF THE CAR RUNNING INTO MY CAR. I KNOW IT HAD ENOUGH FUEL I KEEP MY TANK FULL AND JUST WANTED TO FILL IT ALL THE WAY UP SINCE I HAD EXTRA FUNDS THAT WEEK. EVER SINCE THE SHUT OFF THE CAR HAD BEEN SPUTTERING AND HAVING TROUBLE SWITCHING GEARS. I JUST PURCHASED THIS CAR AND IT HAS BEEN A DISAPPOINTMENT, ONE AFTER THE OTHER!!!!! THEN THERE'S AN ISSUE WITH THE FRONT END WHERE YOU HEAR A POPPING SOUND IF YOU SHOULD HAVE TO UNEXPECTEDLY HAVE TO HIT THE BRAKES OR IF YOU GO OVER A SPEED BUMP. *TR
