2004 Chrysler Pacifica Problems

Subframe/Engine Cradle failed due to rust. Subframe is available for inspection upon request. My safety or the safety of others is put at risk due to the failed (rusted, corroded, rotted) subframe/engine cradle. Vehicle’s engine is at risk of falling through the vehicle’s frame at any moment whether the vehicle is parked or being driven. This problem has been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center. The vehicle and the subframe component has been inspected by a Master ASE Certified Mechanic. No symptoms of the problem prior to the failure that owner has ever been made aware of.

THE UNDER CARRIAGE THAT HOLDS ENGINE IN PLACE IS COMPLETELY RUSTED THROUGH. I BOUGHT BRAND NEW TIRES FROM BELLE TIRE ON SEPTEMBER 9, 2020. BY NOVEMBER 1 2020 I WAS OBSERVING EXTREME WEAR ON THE BRAND NEW TIRES. WENT TO MY MECHANIC AND WAS TOLD THE CAR IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE DUE TO THE CRADLE RUST ROT, AND THE ENGINE IS ABOUT READY TO FALL OUT AND WOULD CAUSE CATASTROPHIC EMERGENCY I AND MY FAMILY COULD DIE. TRYING TO FIND REPLACEMENT AND AM BEING TOLD IT IS SUCH A PROBLEM THAT THERE IS NO PARTS AVAILABLE TO FIX THIS PROBLEM

DRIVING DOWN INTERSTATE WHEN THE CRUISE CUT OUT AND THE ENGINE SKIPPED. PULLED OVER TO CHECK ENGINE FLUIDS AND ALL WERE OK. NO ENGINE WARNING LIGHTS OR ANY OTHER INDICATION OF SOMETHING BEING WRONG. CONTINUED AT APPROX 70 MPH WHEN THERE SEEMED TO BE AN INTERNAL EXPLOSION WITHIN THE ENGINE CAUSING THE ENGINE TO STOP AND ALL FRONT AIRBAGS TO DEPLOY. VEHICLE THEN CAUGHT FIRE AND WAS TOTALLY DESTROYED.

VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO SERVICE. SHOP WOULD NOT WORK ON VEHICLE STATING THE DETERIORATION OF THE SUBFRAME WAS TO EXTENSIVE AND THEY WOULD NOT WORK ON IT. UPON CLOSER INSPECTION SHOWED THE FRAME IN A GREAT STATE OF DECAY, WITH SOME PLACES ONLY BEING HELD TOGETHER WITH THIN STRIPS OF METAL. THESE VEHICLES WERE RECALLED IN THE PAST FOR DEFECTIVE FRAMES HOWEVER NOT ALL WERE RECALLED AND THIS IS ONE VEHICLE THAT WAS NOT. THE MOTOR IN THESE VEHICLES WILL FALL OUT AND COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT WHICH COULD RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR LOSS OF LIFE. THESE FRAMES ARE DEFECTIVE IN WORKMANSHIP FROM THE FACTORY AND SHOULD BE HANDLED BY THE FACTORY ACROSS ALL 2004-2008 CHRYSLER PACIFICA'S AFFECTED BY DEFECTIVE EQUIPMENT KNOWINGLY INSTALLED BY THE FACTORY THAT WILL LEAD TO AN ACCIDENT AND CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH. THOUSANDS OF THESE VEHICLES ARE ON THE ROAD TODAY WITH OCCUPANTS UNKNOWINGLY DRIVING THESE VEHICLES WHICH ARE "TICKING TIME BOMBS". *TR

A POLICE AND FIRE REPORT WERE FILED AT THE SCENE AND NO INJURIES WERE REPORTED. DUE TO THE FAILURE, THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE CONTACT'S HOME WHERE IT REMAINED IN HIS POSSESSION. THE VEHICLE HAD YET TO BE DEEMED DESTROYED. THE CONTACT THEN CALLED MCINERNEY CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM OF THUNDER BAY(832 W CHISHOLM ST, ALPENA, MI 49707) WHERE THEY INFORMED HIM THAT THERE WERE NO RECALLS ON THE VEHICLE; HOWEVER, UPON INVESTIGATION, THE CONTACT LINKED THE FAILURE TO NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 03V471000(FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE).

THE FRONT CHASSIS CROSS MEMBER HAS ROTTED OUT. MY 2004 PACIFICA HAS BEEN PARKED IN MY DRIVEWAY OVER 5 YEARS BECAUSE THE CORROSION IS SO BAD I'M AFRAID TO DRIVE IT. I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR A RECALL TO FIX THIS OBVIOUS FACTORY DEFECT. THE ROTTED FRONT CROSS MEMBER WAS POINTED OUT TO ME DURING A STATE INSPECTION IN JUNE OF 2012

WHEN WE PURCHASED THE CAR I NOTICED WHEN I SELECTED THE SEAT SETTING IT SAID IT WAS SET. WHEN I WENT TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE AGAIN I SELECTED SEAT ONE AND IT HAD THE ERROR MESSAGES AS IN THE PICTURES.

HAVE 2004 CHYSLER PACIFICA HAVING ISSUES WITH FUEL SYSTEM TRUCK DRIVES THEN SPUTTER SHUTS OFF TAKE LONG TIME STARTING UP ALSO OVER HEATS NO REASON TRUCKS SHIFTS INTO GEAR 2 BUT DON'T GO SPEED THINK I'M GOING TRANSMISSION SLIPS CAN BE RIDING UP STREET SHUTS OFF ON ME SHIFTS INTO DRIVE WITH RPM SAYING 2

HAS TAKEN TO STATE INSPECTION AND THEY SAID THERE'S RUST. DIDN'T THINK OF IT AS A BIG ISSUE UNTIL I READ THE HAZARDS OF RUSTING FRAME ON THE ENGINE COULD DROP THE ENGINE WHILE DRIVING. NOW NOT DRIVING IT. IT HAD A TIRE ROD REPAIRED LAST YEAR AND STILL WENT OUT THIS YEAR. IT MIGHT BE DUE TO CORROSION. A LOT OF ELECTRONIC PROBLEMS TOO. FELT LIKE WASTED MY MONEY EVERY YEAR KEEPING THIS VEHICLE IN SHAPE. THIS STATE ALSO LIKES SELLING THESE TYPES OF VEHICLE SO THEY CAN JUICE FOLKS MONEY EVERY YEAR FOR INSPECTIONS AND REPAIR. THEY PUT SALT ON THE GROUND EVERY WINTER THAT EATS UP THE FRAMES OF THE VEHICLE.

WHEN WE PURCHASED THE CAR I NOTICED WHEN I SELECTED THE SEAT SETTING IT SAID IT WAS SET. WHEN I WENT TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE AGAIN I SELECTED SEAT ONE AND IT HAD THE ERROR MESSAGES AS IN THE PICTURES.

MY SEATS STOP WORKING

DRIVING DOWN INTERSTATE WHEN THE CRUISE CUT OUT AND THE ENGINE SKIPPED. PULLED OVER TO CHECK ENGINE FLUIDS AND ALL WERE OK. NO ENGINE WARNING LIGHTS OR ANY OTHER INDICATION OF SOMETHING BEING WRONG. CONTINUED AT APPROX 70 MPH WHEN THERE SEEMED TO BE AN INTERNAL EXPLOSION WITHIN THE ENGINE CAUSING THE ENGINE TO STOP AND ALL FRONT AIRBAGS TO DEPLOY. VEHICLE THEN CAUGHT FIRE AND WAS TOTALLY DESTROYED.

ON WEDNESDAY NIGHT (13 JULY 16), SE MICHIGAN HAD SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS AND STREET FLOODING. I DROVE THROUGH THIS FOR AT LEAST 6 MILES. THE NEXT MORNING AS I WAS LEAVING FOR WORK, I GOT INTO THE CAR, BUCKLED MY SEAT BELT AND PUT THE CAR INTO REVERSE. THERE WAS A LOUD "CRUNCHING" NOISE BUT NO MOVEMENT. I PUT THE CAR IN PARK, GOT OUT TO SEE IF THERE WAS ANYTHING BEHIND THE CAR TO MAKE THAT NOISE BUT THERE WASN'T. I GOT BACK IN THE CAR, BUCKLED UP, PUT THE CAR'S GEAR INTO REVERSE AGAIN. NO MOVEMENT, BUT AN INCREDIBLY LOUD SCREECHY, WHINY NOISE COULD BE HEARD 4 TOWNHOUSES AWAY. I BARELY TAPPED THE ACCELERATOR AND THE CAR SHOT BACKWARDS OUT OF THE SPACE, ACROSS THE LOT, UP OVER A CURB, THROUGH A FLOWER BED, TAKING OUT A LARGE, WOODEN SIGN AND STOPPING ONLY WHEN THE VEHICLE CRASHED INTO A TREE. NO AIR BAGS DEPLOYED AT ALL. POLICE AND EMTS WERE CALLED TO THE SCENE. I WAS TRANSFERRED BY AMBULANCE TO A LOCAL HOSPITAL. I AM NOT FAMILIAR WITH THE VEHICLE'S SYSTEMS, BUT I WOULD THINK THIS WAS A THROTTLE ISSUE. FOR THE FEW SECONDS THE CAR WAS MOVING IN REVERSE, I WAS STOMPING ON THE BRAKE PEDAL. THE BRAKES WERE "STIFF" AND THE PEDAL WOULD ONLY GO HALF WAY TO THE FLOORBOARDS. WITNESSES STATED THE CAR SHOT OUT OF THE PARKING SPACE "LIKE A BULLET" AND/OR "LIKE A ROCKET" AND THAT THERE WAS NO WAY TO STOP THE CAR AT THAT SPEED.

DRIVER FRONT TURN SIGNAL QUIT WORKING. DRIVER REAR STILL WORKS IT IS NOT THE BULB NO SIGNS OF BROKEN OR BURNT WIRES. CHECKING WEB SITES A LOT OF OWNERS HAVING SAME PROBLEM. NO ONE HAS REASON FOR PROBLEM YET. WHEN USING TURN SIGNAL INDICATOR FLASHES REAL FAST LIKE A BULB BURNED OUT. *TR

WHY IS THE AUTOMOTIVE MAKERS ALLOWED TO PUT OUT CAR WITH HEADLIGHT LENSES THAT CLOUD UP AFTER 6-7 YEARS. THIS REDUCES VISABILITY AND COULD LEAD TO AN ACCIDENT.

EMERGENCY BRAKE RELEASE LEVER KEEPS BRAKING. 3 TIMES FOR ME OVER THE YEARS. I SEE MANY REPLACEMENT PARTS BEING SOLD ON EBAY. I'VE BEEN DRIVING FOR 60 YEARS AND NEVER HAD A CAR WHERE THIS HAPPENS. CHECK CHRYSLER RECORDS TO SEE HOW MANY REPLACEMENT RELEASE LEVERS SOLD. IS THIS NORMAL? WHEN BROKEN, CANNOT RELEASE AND POSSIBLY NOT CORRECTLY USE EMERGENCY BRAKE. ALSO THERE IS THIS STEEL ROD AND BROKEN LEVER DANGLING INTO DRIVERS FEET. PROBLEM IS DESIGN OF LEVER. IT HAS TWO THIN SIDES THAT PIVOT ON SOMETHING IN THE CAR. THESE SIDES CANNT TAKE THE FORCE OVER TIME OF CONSTANT AND REASONABLE USE. SEE PICTURES OF BROKEN LEVER AND NEW LEVER. HOW MANY OTHER CHRYSLER MODELS?

I BEEN HAVING MY CHRYSLER PACIFICA 2004 FOR 7 MONTHS. I HAD TO FIX MY LEFT PASSENGER AXLE, SHOCK, WATER PUMP, RADIATOR, PASSENGER UPPER MOTOR MOUNT, THE TANK FOR THE WATER, FUEL INJECTOR LINE, TWO TUNE UPS, AIR FILTER, FUSES, BRAKE LIGHTS AND TIRES. THING THAT IS BROKE, THE PASSENGER WINDOW ELEVATOR, AND MY AC. *TR

IN JANUARY, THE SUSPENSION ON OUR 2004 CHRYSLER PACIFICA (PURCHASED 08/2003), SEEMED TO HAVE ISSUES. A WEB SEARCH TO INVESTIGATE, LED ME TO A MUCH MORE SERIOUS ISSUE THAT EFFECTS '04 AND '05 PACIFICAS. I HAD OUR MECHANIC INSPECT THE FRAME AND SURE ENOUGH, WE WERE ONE OF THE MANY AFFECTED. OUR MECHANIC TOLD US THE CAR WAS NO LONGER SAFE TO DRIVE, AND THAT THE COMPROMISED FRAME CAUSED THE FRONT RIGHT WHEEL TO SHIFT INWARDS. WE WERE QUOTED BETWEEN 4,000 AND 5,000 DOLLARS FOR OUR REPAIRS. THE CAR NOW SITS IN THE GARAGE AS WE HOPE FOR A RESOLUTION. AFTER IN DEPTH RESEARCH, I UNCOVERED THOUSANDS OF COMPLAINTS RELATED TO THE ISSUE, TWO NBC NEWS SEGMENTS, AND A PETITION. I ALSO DISCOVER THAT A FEW YEARS BACK, CHRYSLER EXTENDED THE WARRANTY FOR VEHICLES PRODUCED BETWEEN FEBRUARY AND MARCH OF 2004. HOWEVER, SINCE OUR VEHICLE DID NOT FALL UNDER THIS PROVISION, WE WERE NEVER INFORMED THAT WE MAY HAVE BEEN EFFECTED. I CONTACTED CHRYSLER AND OPENED A CASE. I WAS INSTRUCTED TO WRITE AN EMAIL TO THE CASE MANAGER THAT CONTAINED ALL OF THE INFORMATION WHICH I UNCOVERED ONLINE (AS IF THEY DIDN'T ALREADY KNOW THE ISSUE EXISTED). THIS PROVED TO BE A WASTE OF TIME, AS WE WERE DECLINED ANY ASSISTANCE BECAUSE OUR VEHICLE DID NOT FALL WITHIN THE EXTEND WARRANTY. WE HAVE BEEN THE ONLY OWNERS OF OUR VEHICLE, WHICH HAS 68,000 MILES, HAS BEEN GARAGE KEPT, AND HAS BEEN DRIVEN ONLY BY MY 85 YEAR OLD GRANDPARENTS. APPARENTLY, CHRYSLER HAS MADE A BUSINESS DECISION NOT TO ADDRESS THIS WIDE SPREAD ISSUE. THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF OWNERS DRIVING UNSAFE VEHICLES, MANY OF WHICH ARE COMPLETELY UNAWARE THAT THIS ISSUE EXISTS. US, AS WELL AS ALL OTHER PARTIES EFFECTED ARE DUE APPROPRIATE RECOURSE, BUT I FEAR THAT WE WILL HAVE TO CUT TIES WITH OUR VEHICLE BEFORE THERE IS A RESOLUTION. *TR

BOUGHT 4 MICHELIN LATITUDE TOUR HP TIRES IN OCT 2011 FOR OUR 2004 CHRYSLER PACIFICA AWD. THE CAR CAME WITH MICHELIN TIRES WITHOUT ANY PROBLEMS. SO WE WANTED THE SAME TYPE TIRE FOR REPLACEMENTS. TIRE ID # B9H2XKWX1910-----1 TIRE DOT # B9H2XKWX1911-----2 TIRES # B9H2WKWX2211----1 TIRE SIZE 235/65ZR17 PART # 33809 55,000 MILE WARRANTY TIRES WERE ROTATED EVERY 3,000 MILES AFTER THE JULY 2013 TIRE ROTATION THE TIRES BEGAN A WOOP WOOP SOUND AT ALL SPEEDS. SOUND VERY NOTICEABLE. TIRES AGAIN ROTATED AND REBALANCED(WITH NO CHANGE) 2 MONTHS LATER AND THEY STILL HAVE THIS SOUND. HAVE HAD THE CAR BACK TO THE TIRE DEALER SEVERAL TIMES FOR MORE ROTATIONS AND BALANCING( NO CHANGE NEEDED) WITH OUT ANY RESOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM. TIRES ARE STILL ON THE CAR WITH ONLY11,000 MILES ON THE TIRES SINCE PURCHASE. *TR

THESE VEHICLES HAVE A BALD PROBLEM WITH THE TIRES GOING BALD WAY TOO SOON AND THAT IS A SAFETY HAZARD THEY SHOULDN'T HAVE TO BE REPLACED EVERY 10,000 MILES I ALWAYS GOT NEW TIRES AT 45,000 TO 60,000 BUT NOW I CANT WAIT THAT LONG. I'VE SEEN MANY OF OTHER COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS NOT JUST ME. I DID PLENTY OF RESEARCH BEFORE I FILED A COMPLAINT ABOUT THIS.. *TR

2004 CHRYSLER PACIFICA. CONSUMER STATES SEVERAL PROBLEMS WITH VEHICLE RELATED TO THE ENGINE, AIR CONDITIONER BLOWER AND ALTERNATOR *TGW THE CONSUMER STATED WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS FIRST PURCHASED, THE AIR CONDITIONER BLOWER WAS NOT WORKING PROPERLY AND HAD TO BE REPLACED. LATER THAT YEAR, THERE WAS A WHINING SOUND COMING FROM THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE NEAR THE ENGINE, HOWEVER THE DEALER WAS UNABLE TO FIND THE SOURCE AND TO THIS DAY, THE NOISE IS STILL PRESENT. THE CONSUMER STATED THERE WAS A WHINING SOUND COMING FROM OR NEAR THE POWER STEERING PUMP WHICH WAS EVENTUALLY REPLACED, HOWEVER THE NOISE CONTINUED. THE MOTOR MOUNTS, TIE RODS AND ROCKER ARMS WERE REPLACED. *JB

THIS VEHICLE HAS HAD THE SIPHONING HOSES TO THE GAS TANK REPLACED THREE TIMES. WHICH ALL THREE FAILED ALL THREE TIMES. THE FUEL PUMP HAS BEEN CHANGED. THE WHOLE FUEL TANK HAS BEEN REPLACED.
