“Starting in 2011 my Pacifica's electrical systems seem to be shutting down. First I lost the ability to open windows or use power locks on the passenger side. Next I lost the cruise control function. Now my check engine light appears intermittently. Most recently the air bag light and alarm comes on but only intermittently.”

“I have recently made a complaint to Chrysler about a 2004 Pacifica that I bought about 4mos ago. I know that my car may be out of dealer warranties , but when there are things going on with your vehicle that's under recall, something should be done about before someone is injured or even killed. My gas pedal sticks, my car has stalled off on several occasions while turning in the middle of an intersection, and my fuel system was not holding or distributing fuel properly and my motor mounts are broken! …”
