2019 CHRYSLER PACIFICA Complaints

THE CAR WAS STATIONARY. I TURNED ON THE IGNITION, ENGINE CHECK LIGHT BLEW. TOOK IT TO NEAREST CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP, AND THEY FOUND THE AUXILIARY PUMP FOR HEATING THE HYBRID SYSTEM WAS MALFUNCTIONING. THEY SAID THE MINIVAN IS NOT FIT TO DRIVE UNTIL FIXED. THE VAN RAN FOR JUST 1800 MILES, I PURCHASED IT NEW JUST A MONTH AGO FROM DEALERSHIP. THE REPAIRS ARE COVERED UNDER WARRANTY.

MY WIFE WAS DRIVING HOME AND THE CAR WAS SHUDDERING AND INTERMITTENTLY ACCELERATING. SHE GOT BACK TO THE HOUSE AND SMELT A BURNT RUBBER SMELL. WHEN IN MY DRIVEWAY THE VEHICLE HAD A HARD TIME TURNING OVER AND THE ENGINE WOULD KNOCK AND SHUT OFF WHILE STILL IN PARK. IT HAD TO BE TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR FURTHER EVALUATION

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 CHRYSLER PACIFICA. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED, BUT THE VEHICLE FAILED TO STOP. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO SCHUMACHER CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM OF DELRAY (2102 FEDERAL HWY SUITE A, DELRAY BEACH, FL 33483, (561) 935-4210) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE BRAKING SYSTEM NEEDED TO BE UPDATED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 CHRYSLER PACIFICA HYBRID. WHILE DRIVING 73 MPH, THE "STOP SAFELY, THE VEHICLE WILL SHUT OFF SOON" WARNING MESSAGE APPEARED. THE CONTACT PARKED THE VEHICLE ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD BEFORE THE IGNITION TURNED OFF. THE VEHICLE WAS UNABLE TO BE DRIVEN AND WAS TOWED TO JIMMY BRITT CHEVROLET BUICK GMC (LOCATED AT 1011 TOWN CREEK BLVD, GREENSBORO, GA 30642, (706) 453-2500) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE ABS CONTROL MODULE AND TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THERE WERE ALSO 113 ERROR CODES. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 730.

CHRYSLER REFUSES TO ACKNOWLEDGE OR HELP WITH FINDING CARSEATS THAT FIT FORWARD FACING IN THEIR MIDDLE ROW CAPTAINS STOW AND GO SEATS DUE TO THE EXTREME TILT THEIR SECOND ROW HEADRESTS HAVE WHICH ARE NON REMOVABLE IN THE SECOND ROW OF THE VAN. HENCE MOST PEOPLE ARE UNKNOWINGLY INSTALLING THEIR CARSEATS INCORRECTLY BRACED AGAINST THE HEADRESTS OR HAVE THEM PUSHING THE CARSEAT HEADREST FORWARD WHICH ALMOST ALL CAR SEAR MANUFACTURES DO NOT ALLOW. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE FOR SO MANY CHILDREN AND EVEN GOING TO CPSTS MAY NOT HELP AS IT BASICALLY FORCES THE CONSUMER TO BUY NEW SEATS WHICH THEY MAY NOT BE ABLE TO AFFORD SO THEY LIKELY WILL NOT AND WILL CONTINUE USING THE UNSAFE CAR SEAT.

A MESSAGE KEEPS COMING ON " SERVICE SHIFTER". THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO SERVICE, STILL COMES UP. HAPPENS WHEN STATIONARY AND IN MOTION.

AFTER FIVE MINUTES, CAR STARTS AGAIN. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT REMAINS ON. STALLING RECALL NOT FOUND FOR THIS VIN, BUT IS IN MANUFACTURE DATE RANGE OF RECALL.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 CHRYSLER PACIFICA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE SENSORS FOR BOTH PASSENGER SIDE SLIDING DOORS FAILED TO FUNCTION PROPERLY. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT REACHED INTO THE VEHICLE TO RETRIEVE HER PHONE WHILE THE SLIDING DOORS WERE CLOSING. THE DOOR SENSORS DID NOT RECOGNIZE HER HAND AND IT WAS CRUSHED BY THE SLIDING DOOR. THE CONTACT HAD TO MANUALLY FORCE THE DOOR OPEN TO RESCUE HER HAND FROM THE VEHICLE. MEDICAL ATTENTION WAS NOT RECEIVED. THE CONTACT TESTED BOTH SLIDING DOORS AND FOUND THAT NEITHER OF THE DOOR SENSORS FUNCTIONED CORRECTLY. THE CONTACT WAS CONCERNED FOR HER AND HER CHILDREN'S SAFETY.

THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 500. *DT*JB

LANE SENSE BEHAVES ERRATICALLY IN CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES; ALERTS LOUDLY AND REQUEST HANDS BE PLACED ON THE STEERING WHEEL WHEN THEY ARE ALREADY ON THE WHEEL AND AM TRAVELING SAFELY WITHIN A LANE; NO LANE CHANGES. HAS ALERTED IN DRIVEWAY AS WELL AND ALERTED FOR SERVICE. TOOK TO DEALER AND THEY COULD NOT REPLICATED OR DETERMINE PROBLEM. THEY PROVIDED INFORMATIONAL FLYER ON LANE SENSE BUT IT DOES NOT MATCH REPORTED CONDITIONS/ALERTS I RECEIVED ON AUTO'S CONSOLE. CONSISTENTLY FAILS AND BEHAVES ERRATICALLY GOING NORTHBOUND ON GOLDEN GATE BRIDGE - IN ALL LANES AND ON MULTIPLE OCCURRENCES. OCCURS IN VARIOUS ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS FROM FOG, CLEAR DAY, RAIN, ETC. OCCURS IN MOTION AND WHEN CAR HAS BEEN STILL/STOPPED (IN DRIVEWAY.) SYSTEM ALERTS AND THEN AUTOMATICALLY DEACTIVATES ITSELF. I DON'T KNOW THAT MANUFACTURER AND DEALERS HAVE FULL UNDERSTANDING OF BEHAVIOR; ESPECIALLY THE DETECTION OF WHAT THE CAR BELIEVES ARE NO HANDS ON THE STEERING WHEEL/FEEDBACK TORQUE.
