Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“The headlights (low beam only) just stopped working. No warning at all. Checked bulbs and they are fine. I am not getting power to the low beam lights. The high beams work fine along with the signals, horn, flashers, etc.. I know Chrysler has a recall on the 2005 models, and can't understand why the 2006 are not included!! It's the same problem.”
NHTSA complaint #10454639, filed 2012-04, 108,000 miles“Was driving in the rain and my low beams shut off. The highbeams continued to work as well as my marker lights, and flood lights. I replaced both bulbs and still had no low beams. Everything else works except them. Did research on the internet to learn the 2005 models had a similar issue and there was a recall but the 2006 models are not covered even though it is the same issue.”
NHTSA complaint #10537687, filed 2013-08, 92,000 miles“Sporadically the ABS & brake warning lights come on the dashboard lights come on and the radio cuts out. The main issue is that when all of this happens the headlights also flicker and go out. When driving at night the headlights are very distracting to myself as well as other vehicles on the road. Once I was driving at night and my headlights completely went out for a few seconds. The dealer can't figure out what is causing the issue and there is no specific reason that causes it to happen.”
NHTSA complaint #10499908, filed 2013-02, 75,000 miles“I have a 2006 Chrysler Pacifica with 65000 miles. Exterior headlights and interior dash lights begin to flicker while driving. Also, ABS & brake lights are flickering on and off. This occurs several times daily..especially in the mornings when headlights are in use. I fear headlights will go out permanently and will cause a crash. Have seen several complaints from other consumers.. Why has there not been a recall . Replaced several sensors will not results.”
NHTSA complaint #10361116, filed 2010-10, 75,000 miles“Drivers side headlamp worked intermittantly and then lost power. There is no power leading to the low beam headlamp assy. 2005 models had a recall for this exact problem, but Chrysler tells me that my 2006 shows no recalls per my VIN. This is very dangerous that my headlights can fail while driving and cause a crash. Also replacing bulbs will not help this situation because the problem is in the integrated power module (fuse box). So you cannot even drive your car home if this problem happens to you on the road. Very dangerous and a horrible design by Chrysler.”
