2007 Chrysler Pacifica AWD Engine cooling Problems

“My 2007 Chrysler pacifica stalls while driving. We have only owned it for 9 months but in that time we have had five stalling issues. Our local dealership has tried cleaning various parts of the transmission, but it continues to stall. I noticed that 2003 to 2006 pacifica's were recalled for a similar issue.”

“My Chrysler pacifica 2007 awd with a 4.0 engine uses excessive oil. I did not know this. Due to the car using oil-no leaking, I nearly blew my engine. My oil light came on too late with only about 1 qt of oil remaining. Since I bought the car a year old and it is past 36000 miles, I am stuck with repairs due to a faulty engine. The car is at the mechanic who said it has metal in the oil from the ordeal and may need the whole engine replaced or rebuilt. This may cost 1/2 what the car is worth and I still owe payments for 4 more years. …”

“While driving on a side road in town, going between 40-50 MPH, my car shimmied. I had taken my car to a mechanic, and he found that all 4 motor mounts were broken. They were replaced and within 3 months, they were broken again. The mechanic could not find anything that was causing the motor mounts to break. He has replaced my motor mounts a total of 4 times in less than a year. My pacifica still shimmies and shakes when accelerating between 40-50 MPH. When I release the gas, it will stop, but sometimes shimmies when I touch the gas again. Passed 50 MPH, the car does not shimmy and shake.”

“Have been experiencing a clunk from the right wheel well for a few weeks. Had midas look at it last week while replacing front brakes, but they said they didn't see anything. This week, was getting oil change and transmission flushed. Mentioned the noise again, and this time was told the noise was due to engine mount failure of the left and right engine mounts. I in turn called my local Chrysler dealership since I purchased my car with the lifetime power train warranty as well as an extended warranty, and was told that neither one of these would cover the replacement. …”

“While traveling at highway speeds the car simply turned off (engine stops just like you turned the key to off). Total loss of power steering and power braking. Coasted to side of road, where car was restarted. This problem is similar to a problem in may 2012 when the car while traveling at highway speeds turned itself off. Stored code at the time was c121c. Dealer was unable to determine cause in may 2012.”
