CURRENTLY MY CHRYSLER PACIFICA TOURING AWD HAS 31,008 MILES ON IT. I HAVE HAD THE FOLLOWING PROBLEMS SEPTEMBER 11, 2008 AT 2660 MILES, ROCKER ARM, VALVE REPLACED 4.0 LITER. CRACKED BLACK PLASTIC UPPER RADIATOR PANEL. OCTOBER 27, 2011 MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS TO DEALERSHIP ABOUT THE VEHICLE ACTING LIKE IT WANTED TO ACCELERATE ON ITS OWN. JULY 14, 2012 MILES: 22,574 FRONT/REAR DIFFERENTIAL SHOWS A NEED FOR IMMEDIATE ATTENTION. FEBRUARY 12.2013, SHOWED REAR DIFFERENTIAL LEAKING.

JUST BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE FROM DODGE DEALERSHIP. ONE FOUR DIFFERENT OCCASIONS A COUPLE AT LOW SPEED <15 AND A COUPLE AT HIGHER SPEED >40 THE VEHICLE STALLS OR TURNS OFF. YOU LOSE POWER STEERING (HARD TO CONTROL) AND BRAKING(HARD TO PRESS PEDAL). NO ENGINE LIGHTS OR WARNING LIGHTS TO SHOW FAILURE ANYWHERE. VEHICLE STARTS RIGHT BACK UP AND MAY NOT DO IT AGAIN FOR WEEKS. FROM WHAT I HAVE BEEN READING THERE IS NO SURE FINDINGS TO THE CAUSE AND MAYBE A TSB OUT THERE BY NOW SHOWS THE PROBLEM. I AM WORRIED ABOUT THE QUALITY OR SAFETY OF MY FAMILY SHOULD THE WIFE BE DRIVING THE VEHICLE AT A RATE OF SPEED AND IT CUT OUT ON HER AND SHE PANIC OR BE IN RUSH TRAFFIC. IT NOT ONLY ENDANGERS HER BUT ANY VEHICLE AROUND HER. BEFORE I TAKE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND PAY LOTS OF MONEY I DON'T HAVE I NEED TO KNOW WHAT MY OPTIONS ARE AND WHY IT APPEARS THIS HAS BEEN AN ISSUE AND NOT RESOLVED. IF YOU PUT IN GOOGLE 2007 PACIFICA AWD STALLING WHILE DRIVING YOU GET MORE THAN ENOUGH RESPONSES AND IT LED ME TO HERE EVEN. I WOULD WHOLE HEARTEDLY APPRECIATE ANY AND ALL INFORMATION AND ACTIONS I CAN DO TO GET THIS FIXED AND RESOLVED FOR MY FAMILY. *TR

MULTIPLE OCCURRENCES OF CAR BURNING OIL? UNSURE WHERE ITS GOING. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AT FIRST OCCURRENCE, NO INDICATOR OF ANY OIL ISSUES. TOOK TO MECHANIC AND STATED THE OIL STICK WAS COMPLETELY DRY. NO INDICATIONS OF ANY HOLES/LEAKS OR OTHER ISSUES. NEXT OCCURRENCE WITHOUT WARNING SERVICE LIGHT CAME ON AND INSPECTED IMMEDIATELY AFTER LIGHT CAME ON TO FIND AGAIN NO OIL REMAINING. SERVICE MECHANICS UNSURE OF WHERE THE OIL IS GOING AS THERE STILL APPEARS TO BE NO LEAKS OR SIGNS OF IT GOING ANYWHERE. ON AVERAGE NEED TO PUT IN OIL IN EVERY 100-200 MILES TO AVOID COMPLETE LOSS OF ALL OIL. THE FARTHER DOWN IT GETS, IT SEEMS TO DISAPPEAR MORE RAPIDLY. THE SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON WHEN THE CAR IS COMPLETELY DRY OF OIL POSING POTENTIAL ENGINE LOCK UP ISSUES OR CRACKING OF ENGINE BLOCK WITHOUT NOTICE. THERE IS NO OIL LIGHT, THE LIGHT IMMEDIATELY GOES TO SERVICE ENGINE SOON LIGHT, AND AFTER NUMEROUS OCCURRENCES INDICATES A COMPLETELY DRY DIPSTICK. *TR

WE HAVE HAD MULTIPLE ISSUES WITH THIS VEHICLE. AROUND 60,000 MILES THE CAR DIED SEVERAL TIMES WHICH WAS FIXED. THEN 2/11/2013 THE CAR HAD A PROBLEM WITH I BELIEVE WAS THE FUEL LINE. CAR WOULD ACT LIKE IT WAS GOING TO DIE AND SMOKING LIKE CRAZY WHEN PRESSED GAS, SMELLED LIKE GAS.. WE GOT IT TO THE DEALER SERVICE AND THE FIXED IT - COST $1100. 3 WEEKS LATER WHILE GETTING ONTO A FREEWAY IN TRAFFIC, I PRESSED THE GAS TO ACCELERATE, HEARD A BANG LIKE SOMETHING BLEW UP IN THE ENGINE, CAR WAS SMOKING IN THE EXHAUST AND THE IMMEDIATELY DIED. IT WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER WHERE WE WERE LATER INFORMED A ROD HAD COME LOOSE AND PUT A GASH IN THE ENGINE AND OIL PAN. CALLED IT A CATASTROPHIC FAILURE AND ONLY FIXED AT ENORMOUS COST. CAR DEAD AT 82,625 MILES. 5 YEARS OLD. IF THIS "ROD" WOULD HAVE BROKE LOOSE ANY OTHER TIME OR WHILE DRIVING FASTER IN MIDDLE LANE, WE COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED, SINCE IT WAS RUSH HOUR. I HAD 2 YOUNG KIDS WITH ME AT THE TIME. CHRYSLER IS PUTTING LIVES AT RISK WITH FAULTY PRODUCTS. PURCHASED BRAND NEW, MAINTAINED AND DID ALL REQUIRED MAINTENANCE THROUGH DEALER. HAD TO PURCHASE NEW CAR, NOT A CHRYSLER. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CHRYSLER PACIFICA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE STALLED AND THEN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATED. TO RESTART THE VEHICLE, IT HAD TO BE SHIFTED INTO NEUTRAL. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE POWER STEERING ASSIST WOULD FAIL INTERMITTENTLY. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 104,000.

ENGINE STALLS / SHUTS OFF AT LOW SPEED - THIS HAS OCCURRED 18 TIMES SINCE AND SEEMS TO BE GETTING PROGRESSIVELY WORSE. NOW IT IS OCCURRING AT HIGHER SPEEDS (50MPH) WHEN TURNING AROUND BENDS. LOSS OF POWER STEERING CONTRIBUTES TO THE PROBLEM. THE INTERIOR POWER REMAINS ON WHILE A OIL DISPLAY LIGHT FLASHES. ONCE STOPPED THE VEHICLE WILL RESTART AND NO FURTHER PROBLEM IS DETECTED. THESE TYPES OF STALLING PROBLEMS OCCUR INTERMITTENTLY. THE SAME SORT OF SCENARIO HAPPENS EVERY TIME THE ENGINE SHUTS OFF (STALLS). *TR
