ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, STEERING
PURCHASED THE PACIFICA TOURING AWD IN SEPTEMBER/OCTOBER, 2013. IT WAS IN FABULOUS CONDITION. A COUPLE OF MONTHS LATER, I EXPERIENCED MY FIRST OF EIGHT OCCURRENCES WHEREIN THE VEHICLE SHUT OFF WITHOUT WARNING. ONCE THE ENGINE SHUT OFF, POWER BRAKES AND POWER STEERING DIDN'T FUNCTION PROPERLY, LIKELY BECAUSE THE ENGINE WAS NO LONGER RUNNING. FIVE OF THESE EIGHT OCCURRENCES HAVE BEEN WITHIN ONE MILE OF MY RESIDENCE. ADDITIONALLY, IT OCCURRED ONCE IN A PARKING LOT, ONCE IN AN INTERSECTION, AND ONCE AS I WAS GETTING ONTO AN INTERSTATE HIGHWAY. A FEW OF THE OCCURRENCES ALMOST RESULTED IN ACCIDENTS. I WAS AT THE MERCY OF THE OTHER DRIVERS IN THOSE CASES. I HAVE SIX GRANDCHILDREN. I'M HESITANT TO TAKE THEM ON TRIPS BECAUSE I HAVE NO CONFIDENCE IN MY PACIFICA'S SAFETY AND RELIABILITY. MY VEHICLE SAFETY COMPLAINT SEEMS EERILY SIMILAR TO NUMEROUS OTHER OWNER'S 2007 PACIFICA SAFETY COMPLAINTS. I PRAY CHRYSLER WILL INVESTIGATE THIS ISSUE TO DETERMINE WHAT IS CAUSING THE ENGINE FAILURE BEFORE A PRECIOUS LIFE IS LOST. CHRYSLER, PLEASE IDENTIFY THE CAUSE AND NOTIFY THE OWNERS OF THE FIX SOONEST. IT MAKES NO SENSE TO CONTINUE NEGLECTING THESE SAFETY CLAIMS. I'M CERTAIN $$$ IS CAUSING YOUR HESITATION TO INVESTIGATE; HOWEVER, IT WILL SEEM LIKE PENNIES COMPARED WITH THE COST YOU WILL UNDOUBTEDLY PAY DUE TO NEGLIGENCE IN THE EVENT OF INJURY OR FATALITY. THANKS IN ADVANCE FOR HEARING MY CONCERN, DIAGNOSING THE PROBLEM, IDENTIFYING THE SOLUTION, AND QUICKLY IMPLEMENTING YOUR PLAN TO REPAIR THE AFFECTED VEHICLES. SAFETY HAS A PRICE, BUT HUMAN LIFE IS PRICELESS.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, AIR BAGS
THE TRACTION CONTROL AND ESP LIGHTS HAVE BEEN ON FOR MONTHS, DEALER STATES THAT THE PROBLEM IS THE CLOCKSPRING, BUT PART IS NOT AVAILABLE. SO CURRENTLY THE ESP AND TRACTION CONTROL, BOTH OF WHICH ARE SAFETY FEATURES ARE NOT FUNCTIONING AND I CAN NOT REPAIR CAUSE PART IS NOT READILY AVAILABLE, I FEEL THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL TO COVER THIS SAFETY CONCERN.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC)
WARNING LIGHTS ON THE IP INDICATE A FAILURE, ILLUMINATING "ESP/BAS" [ELECTRONIC STABILITY PROGRAM/BRAKE ASSIST SYSTEM]. THREE DEALERS RAN THE DIAGNOSTIC CODES AND HAVE TOLD ME THERE IS A "CLOCKSPRING" FAILURE IN THE STEERING ANGLE SENSOR, WHICH NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. THIS IS AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS PRODUCT FAILURE SINCE I COULD LOSE CONTROL OF THE CHRYSLER PACIFICA UNDER EXTREME BRAKING OR IN CASE OF A SKID ON A SLIPPERY ROAD SURFACE. CHRYSLER INITIALLY SAID THEY DO NOT HAVE THIS PART AVAILABLE. LATER, THEY CLAIMED I WOULD BE ABLE TO GET THE PART - IN JANUARY - THE FEBRUARY- NOW MARCH. STILL NO PART AVAILABLE. CHRYSLER MUST BE COMPELLED TO RECALL THE 2007 CHRYSLER PACIFICA FOR THE SAFETY OF THE DRIVERS AND PASSENGERS - AND FIX THIS DANGEROUS DEFECT. *TR

STEERING, ENGINE
I WAS DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 30 MPH WHEN MY POWER STEERING STOPPED WORKING AND I NOTICED MY ENGINE HAD ALSO STOPPED. I STRUGGLED TO STEER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. I TURNED THE KEY OFF (THE ENGINE WAS ALREADY OFF). I WAITED A MINUTE AND STARTED THE VEHICLE WITHOUT A PROBLEM. I DROVE DIRECTLY TO MY MECHANIC WHERE HE COULD NOT FIND A PROBLEM. THIS HAS HAPPENED 2 MORE TIMES (FOR A TOTAL OF 3 TIMES). ALL WHEN I WAS DRIVING BETWEEN 30 - 40 MPH. THE FIRST INDICATION OF A PROBLEM IS WHEN I LOOSE POWER STEERING AND NOTICE THE ENGINE HAS CUT-OUT. *TR

POWER TRAIN, STEERING
POWER STEERING FAILS COMPLETELY FOR ABOUT 30 SECONDS OR MORE. THIS OCCURS WHEN THE VEHICLE TRAVELS THROUGH ANY WATER ON THE ROAD THAT MAY SPLASH INTO THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT. THE STEERING BELT GETS WET AND WILL SLIP (MAKING A SCREECHING NOISE UNTIL IT SPINS OFF THE WATER AND DRIES). THE POWER ASSISTED STEERING WILL STOP COMPLETELY NOT ALLOWING THE DRIVER TO MANEUVER THE VEHICLE UNTIL THE POWER STEERING IS RESTORED. THIS PROBLEM WILL CAUSE THE DRIVER NOT TO BE ABLE TO CHANGE THE DIRECTION OF THE VEHICLE IN ANY DIRECTION TO COMPLETE A TURN OR AVOID A COLLISION! IT IS VERY DANGEROUS AND CAN OCCUR WITHOUT WARNING. WE ARE LOOKING INTO THE PROBLEM. IT MAYBE THAT A SPLASH GUARD WAS LEFT OFF AND NOT REPLACE DURING A PREVIOUS SERVICE. THIS HAS NOT BEEN CONFIRMED TO BE THE FIX. WE WILL UPDATE THIS POST ONCE THIS IS CONFIRMED TO BE THE FIX. *TR

STEERING, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL, ENGINE
THIS VEHICLE TENDS TO STALL AT OR BELOW 35 MPH. HAVE BEEN TO INDEPENDENT MECHANICS AND CHRYSLER AND NO ONE CAN SEEM TO FIGURE OUT WHY IT STALLS. WHEN IT STALLS THERE IS A LOSS OF CONTROL OF THE CAR AND IS VERY DANGEROUS ESPECIALLY WHEN IN RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC. MY WIFE DRIVES THIS VEHICLE ALONG WITH MY 3 CHILDREN. I HAVE SEEN NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ON THIS MATTER AND I AM QUITE SURPRISED THERE HAS NOT BEEN A RECALL. *TR
