| 2005 | POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION | THE 2005 CHRYSLER PACIFICA WAS BURNING OIL AT 1 QUART PER 1000 MILES. THE DEALERSHIP TOOK THE ENGINE APART AND REPLACED THE VALVE SEALS. THIS HELPED AND SLOWED THE OIL CONSUMPTION,, BUT DID NOT FIX IT. NOW THE CAR WAS STILL BURNING 1 QUART 1000 MILES, WHICH CHRYSLER CLAIMED WAS PERFECTLY NORMAL , ACCORDING TO THEIR POLICY. THE MANAGER AT THE DEALERSHIP STATED THAT THIS WAS NOT A PROBLEM THAT PACIFICA'S HAD AND SEEMSED TO BE UNIQUE TO THIS CAR ,AND A FEW OTHERS. CHRYSLERWAS STILL REFUSING TO FIX THE PROBLEM. IF ALLOWED THE OIL TO BURN AT 1QUART. PER 1000 MILES, THEN AT 3000 MILES OIL CHANGE THE VEHICLE WILL BE 3 QUARTS LOW, LEAVING ONLY 2.5 QUARTS. OF OIL INTHE CAR. THIS WAS 2 QUARTS. BELOW THE MINIMUM LEVEL FOR SAFE DRIVING ACCORDING TO THE CHRYSLER PACIFICA OWNER'S MANUAL. *AK |
| 2007 | POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION | I PURCHASED A 2007 CHRYSLER PACIFICA IN MAY 2007. STARTING IN JANUARY 2008 I STARTED HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE CAR...SHUTTERING, IDLE PROBLEMS. IN MARCH 2008 I HAD TO HAVE A NEW TORQUE CONVERTER PUT IN THE CAR. NOW, AUGUST, 2008 AND 8000 MILES LATER I GOT IN THE CAR ONE MORNING AND IT WAS MAKING A HORRIFIC SQUEALING NOISE AND COME TO FIND OUT AGAIN I HAVE TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS AND NEED ANOTHER TORQUE CONVERTER PLUS A TRANSMISSION PUMP. APPARENTLY THE PUMP IS ON BACKORDER AND I AM 1 OF 3 PEOPLE IN THE UNITED STATES ON A WAITING LIST WAITING FOR ONE. MY CAR HAS BEEN SITTING IN THE SHOP FOR OVER 3 WEEKS NOW BECAUSE OF THE PROBLEM. THE CHRYSLER MECHANIC HAS NO IDEA WHEN THE PART MAY COME IN. THIS IS RIDICULOUS IN MY OPINION. AN ALMOST BRAND NEW CAR WITH THESE KIND OF PROBLEMS. THE CRAZIEST THING IS THAT AFTER OWNING THE CAR FOR 6 MONTHS LAST YEAR, I FIND OUT THAT CHRYSLER DOESN'T EVEN PUT A TRANSMISSION DIPSTICK UNDER THE HOOD. YOU HAVE TO TAKE THE CAR TO A CHRYSLER DEALER TO HAVE IT WORKED ON OR CHECKED. THAT IS JUST WRONG. I DON'T KNOW IF THERE IS ANY TYPE OF LEMON LAW OR WHAT ON THIS BECAUSE I HAVE RESEARCHED AND FOUND OUT I AM ONE OF MANY WHO HAS HAD THESE TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS WITH THE 2007 CHRYSLER PACIFICA. PLEASE ADVISE ME IF I HAVE ANY RIGHTS IN THIS MATTER. *TR |
