Defect Description:
VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
Potential Consequences:
The vehicle will randomly lose power when going from a stop or low speed and attempting to accelerate. For example, if I am stopped at a red light and start to accelerate once the light turns green, the vehicle will not gain speed. I have to let up off the gas pedal and then I will feel a "jolt" and then the vehicle will pick up speed. The safety of myself, my kids and others were put at risk because I cannot maintain a safe speed while driving. If I am stopped to make a turn, my vehicle has lost power or wouldn't gain speed as I was turning into or merging into oncoming traffic. Also, and the most dangerous, was when I had the vehicle in reverse to pull out of a parking spot at a store. When I attempted to turn the dial knob to "Drive", the vehicle turned itself off and the dashboard flashed with a message stating I need to put it in park and restart the engine. It was very scary to have the vehicle cut off on me like that. I have taken the vehicle to the local Chrysler dealership and an independent service center. The Chrysler dealership claim they were not able to reproduce the problem but stated they would have to break the engine down to the point of failure to diagnose the problem, a minimum charge of $750. The independent service center stated they could reproduce the problem and that it was the camshaft sensor which I had replaced for $400 but the problem continued not even an hour after I picked up the vehicle. They kept the vehicle an extra day but stated they were unsure of the problem and suggested it could be transmission related and that I take it to a certified transmission repair shop. The engine light came on when the problem first began but since having the vehicle serviced at the Chrysler dealership and the independent service center, the problem continues without the engine light appearing.

ENGINE
Potential Consequences:
Car started having a ticking noise above the dashboard, the ticking noise started a few months ago but did not affect the driving ability of the vehicle. A few weeks ago I got an engine misfire error. After the misfire the car then quickly deteriorated and stopped turning over but the electrical still worked. I had the car towed to the dealership and it looks like it will require a new engine or long block. The dealership is having the same errors we had at home but they were able to put in a new starter to get it to turn over. The dealership is currently taking a part the engine to determine what all needs to be replaced. We were lucky that this issue started when we were leaving our home. Had this engine failure happened during a drive on the freeway it may have been determinantal to me and my family.

Defect Description:
ENGINE
Potential Consequences:
The vehicle stalled on the road in the middle of an intersection and then again in a turn lane a few hours later in the same day. The car was in drive, rumbled near the front of the vehicle, lurched forward, and then the engine cut out and would not restart. Trying to start the car again made a REVVVVVV-putta-putta-putta noise and there was not any control of the ignition on my end. It revved up and then hovered around 1/2 of 1 RPM on the dash then it would cut out and ask me to put it in park and start again. Hitting the engine start button did nothing and the dash electronics seemed to cut in and out. Each time I went to restart the car, it went from being in drive to stalling to needing 5+ minutes before it could be driven again, this happened without warning. My family and myself were in the car when we were first stuck in the middle of an intersection. If traffic had been heavier there would have been no warning and I would just be stuck with no way to move the car out of the way quickly. AND with electric systems malfunctioning I'm not confident that the airbags would deploy effectively in the event of a crash should we be left stranded at another intersection after the car stalls. I drove the car to the dealership and on my way a very similar incident occurred, i used my phone to record the incident this time and while the car started right up in the dealer's driveway, I was able to say "NO it literally stalled on my way here, look at this video" The video is just 5 minutes of me sitting at another intersection with people honking and cursing at me as they drive by. The car starts up, revved up then dies immediately. Earlier, the AUTOSTART light came up, but the second time the CHECK ENGINE light was on and off again. The vehicle is at the dealership now and we are hoping it will be repaired, but (looking over other complaints here) I'm very worried about the safety of my family and other drivers with these vehicles on the road.

The vehicle stalled on the road in the middle of an intersection and then again in a turn lane a few hours later in the same day. The car was in drive, rumbled near the front of the vehicle, lurched forward, and then the engine cut out and would not restart. Trying to start the car again made a REVVVVVV-putta-putta-putta noise and there was not any control of the ignition on my end. It revved up and then hovered around 1/2 of 1 RPM on the dash then it would cut out and ask me to put it in park and start again. Hitting the engine start button did nothing and the dash electronics seemed to cut in and out. Each time I went to restart the car, it went from being in drive to stalling to needing 5+ minutes before it could be driven again, this happened without warning. My family and myself were in the car when we were first stuck in the middle of an intersection. If traffic had been heavier there would have been no warning and I would just be stuck with no way to move the car out of the way quickly. AND with electric systems malfunctioning I'm not confident that the airbags would deploy effectively in the event of a crash should we be left stranded at another intersection after the car stalls. I drove the car to the dealership and on my way a very similar incident occurred, i used my phone to record the incident this time and while the car started right up in the dealer's driveway, I was able to say "NO it literally stalled on my way here, look at this video" The video is just 5 minutes of me sitting at another intersection with people honking and cursing at me as they drive by. The car starts up, revved up then dies immediately. Earlier, the AUTOSTART light came up, but the second time the CHECK ENGINE light was on and off again. The vehicle is at the dealership now and we are hoping it will be repaired, but (looking over other complaints here) I'm very worried about the safety of my family and other drivers with these vehicles on the road.

Potential Consequences:
Driving down the road and suddenly engine shut off without warning, lost power immediately, RPMs went to zero, dash said "Shift to Park." Tried to pull over, didn't get completely out of the way because no power from engine so car had to swerve around us. Shifted to park, tried to restart, didn't work until third time to restart car so that I could drive home. Ridiculously unsafe for the car engine to just shut off without warning in middle of road. Looks like this is the same recall Chrysler tried to fix years ago. Someone is going to die from this defect. Thank God I was on a local road and not the highway when this happened. This car model should be taken off the road immediately.

POWER TRAIN
Potential Consequences:
The vehicle shut off while driving at a slow speed, 10 - 15 mph. Lost complete power to vehicle as we where making our way through an intersection, it was very difficult to steer and maneuver. We made it across but only to put those behind me at risk. Panicked, I had not realized that on screen a message appeared on the instrument cluster, Put in Park and Start. The vehicle started right up and we were moving again. For more than 2 years we have been dealing with intermittent hard shifting and the dealer, because they are not able to replicate they say they can't diagnose to be able to fix. I don't know if it is related or not but I thought I mention it since its a common customer complaint in the Pacifica Forums. We've learned to live with hard shifting can't really afford to buy a new car now, but this stopping while driving was the tip of the iceberg. I can't have this happen on a freeway with a family of 6. Not safe. This is also a common topic on the Pacifica Forums.

I don't know if it is related or not but I thought I mention it since its a common customer complaint in the Pacifica Forums. We've learned to live with hard shifting can't really afford to buy a new car now, but this stopping while driving was the tip of the iceberg. I can't have this happen on a freeway with a family of 6. Not safe. This is also a common topic on the Pacifica Forums.
Corrective Action:
The vehicle shut off while driving at a slow speed, 10 - 15 mph. Lost complete power to vehicle as we where making our way through an intersection, it was very difficult to steer and maneuver. We made it across but only to put those behind me at risk. Panicked, I had not realized that on screen a message appeared on the instrument cluster, Put in Park and Start.
