MY CAR STOPS RUNNING SHORTLY AFTER DRIVING WITHIN A FEW MINUTES WITH ZERO WARNING. WHEN THIS HAPPENS THE POWER STEERING AND BREAKS STOP FUNCTIONING. I HAVE BEEN ABLE TO SUCCESSFULLY BEEN ABLE TO RESTART THE CAR AND CONTINUE TO MY DESTINATION. THIS CREATES A DEFIANT SAFETY HAZARD AND HAS HAPPENED RANDOMLY ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS. THE STALLING STARTED AT THE TIME WHEN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND 'GASCAP' WARNING MESSAGE CAME ON - PERMANENTLY. THE MECHANICS HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO FINE THE PROBLEM AND THERE ARE NO COMPUTER CODE READINGS. HAS THERE BEEN A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM FROM CHRYSLER?

I HAVE A 2007 CHRYSLER PACIFICA TOURING THAT I HAVE HAD TO REPAIR MOTOR MOUNTS SEVERAL TIMES. WHEN THE CAR IS STATIONARY AND THEN IN MOTION THE PROBLEM OCCURS. WHEN I ACCELERATE THE CAR DOES NOT HAVE IT'S FULL POWER POTENTIAL BECAUSE ACCELERATION CAUSES THE ENGINE TO IMMEDIATELY RAISE UP AND THEN QUICKLY DROP DOWN. I HEAR THE ENGINE HIT THE FRAME WITH A LOUD BANG WHEN IT DROPS. THIS HAPPENS IN MOTION, ON CITY STREETS, AND THE HIGHWAY. I BELIEVE THIS HAS CAUSED OTHER ENGINE PROBLEMS THAT I HAVE REPAIRED OVER THE YEARS.MY MOTOR MOUNT REPLACEMENT YEARS ARE 2010,2012,2013, AND 2016. I HAVE RECEIPTS AND THE LAST SET OF MOUNTS. I DON'T LIKE TO DRIVE MY GRANDSON AROUND IN THIS CAR BECAUSE I FEEL IT IS NOT SAFE FOR HIM. I ALWAYS TRY TO USE MY OTHER VEHICLE TO TRANSPORT CHILDREN. I HAVE REQUESTED HELP WITH CHRYSLER AND WAS ADVISED THOUGH WE HELPED AND REPLACED YOUR MOUNTS UNDER WARRANTY IN 2013, WE WILL NO LONGER HELP YOU WITH MOUNT REPLACEMENT . WE CONSIDER IT NORMAL WARE AND TARE. CHRYSLER ALSO ADVISED THEY WILL NOT HELP BECAUSE OF THE CARS AGE AND MILEAGE. I HAVE THE RECORDING. IF THIS IS CONSIDERED NORMAL THAN I FEEL IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN LISTED IN THE CONSUMER VEHICLE MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR BOOK. HAD I KNOW I WOULD HAVE TO RE-SECURE MY ENGINE TO THE FRAME EVERY YEAR I WOULD HAVE NOT PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE. NOW CHRYSLER HAS RELEASED A NEW PACIFICA. I AM INTERESTED TO KNOW WILL THIS HAPPEN WITH THE NEW CHRYSLER PACIFICA. REGARDLESS, IT IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE AROUND WITH THE ENGINE UNSECURED TO THE VEHICLE FRAME.

COMPLAINANTS ALLEGE THAT A FIRE ERUPTED UNDER THE HOOD, NEAR THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE.IN CHRYSLER'S RESPONSE TO ODI'S NOVEMBER 2, 2007 INFORMATION REQUEST, CHRYSLER ASSERTS THAT THE ALLEGED DEFECT OCCURS ONLY IN THE 4.0L ENGINES AND THE CONSUMER WILL EXPERIENCE A LOSS OF POWER STEERING FLUID OR A NOISY POWER STEERING PUMP BEFORE SEEING ANY EVIDENCE OF SMOKE OR FIRE.CHRYSLER ALSO STATES THAT A TUBE NUT ON THE HIGH PRESSURE POWER STEERING LINE WAS DISCOVERED TO BE CROSS THREADED DURING THE ASSEMBLY PROCESS AND DID NOT ALLOW PROPER SEALING OF THE O-RING.THE POWER STEERING SYSTEM IN THE 4.0L ENGINE IS ASSEMBLED AT THE CHRYSLER PLANT.THE POWER STEERING SYSTEM FOR THE 3.8L ENGINES ARRIVES AT THE CHRYSLER PLANT PRE-ASSEMBLED.CHRYSLER FOUND THAT IN THE 4.0L ENGINE, IT WAS POSSIBLE TO CROSS-THREAD THE TUBE NUT ON THE HIGH PRESSURE LINE DURING ITS ATTACHMENT TO THE STEERING GEAR, THUS CREATING AN IMPROPER SEAL.CHRYSLER IMPLEMENTED ASSEMBLY PLANT PROCESS CHANGES TO ELIMINATE THE POSSIBILITY OF CROSS-THREADING, AND APPLIED ADDITIONAL QUALITY CONTROL MEASURES TO DETECT POWER STEERING FLUID LEAKS.CHRYSLER STATED THAT WARRANTY AND FIELD DATA SUGGESTS THAT THESE PROCESS CHANGES HAVE MINIMIZED THE POSSIBILITY OF CROSS-THREADING.WITH REGARD TO THE VEHICLES PRODUCED PRIOR TO THE PRODUCTION CHANGE, A REVIEW OF THE WARRANTY CLAIMS INDICATES THAT THE ALLEGED DEFECT HAS NOT DECLINED IN THE 4.0L POPULATION.ODI IS UPGRADING THIS PRELIMINARY EVALUATION TO AN ENGINEERING ANALYSIS, EA08-006, TO FURTHER EVALUATE THE ISSUE.
