WE HAVE TAKEN OUR 2017 CHRYSLER PACIFICA TO THE DEALER TWICE FOR A CONTINUOUS ISSUE OF HARD SHIFTING MOSTLY IN 1ST & 2ND GEARS. WE HAVE BEEN JOLTING AND HAVE HAD THE VEHICLE COMPLETELY SHUT OFF ON US.I WAS GOING ABOUT 12 MPH. ON MONDAY, JAN. 13, 2020 MY 3.5 YO DAUGHTER AND I WERE ON A SLIGHT HILL AND THE CAR SEIZED UP AND LOST ALL FUNCTION. I SLIDE (I WAS ON A DIRT ROAD WITH SOME SNOW) INTO A DITCH AND LOOKED OUT THE WINDOW TO SEE A LARGE AMOUNT OF RED FLUID ON THE GROUND. WHEN I EXITED THE VEHICLE I NOTICED THE DISTINCT SMELL OF TRANSMISSION FLUID. MY DAUGHTER AND I WERE STUCK FOR HOURS DEALING WITH THIS SITUATION. I FEEL VERY UNSAFE IN THIS VAN. I AM CONCERNED IF THEY TRY TO "FIX" THE PROBLEM I WILL BE IN THE SAME SITUATION AGAIN.
