Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“It is possible to start the 2023 Pacifica and put it into Reverse and not be able to steer it, and have done so, and can easily recreate the issue repeatedly. Engine is on. Shift knob is on R. If vehicle is on a slope, it will drift down the slope (backing up in my case) and the steering wheel is locked and even though in Reverse, the drive train does not engage. In this instance, I've duplicated many times, it is as though it is in Neutral while steering wheel is immobile. …”
