2005 Chrysler Pacifica Powertrain (other) Problems

2005 Chrysler Pacifica was purchased from a friend’s grandfather who kept the car garaged the car is literally like new inside and out the under carriage looks like new no rust I was impressed but had a rattling in the front end I figured it was a strut took it in to have struts and all front end parts replaced to my surprise I get a call from the shop engine cradle and it bushings rusted out tried buying a replacement unavailable after doing some digging it’s a common problem among the Pacifica I’m afraid to drive it was told when it completely fails it’s going to be catastrophic incident. I understand it a 20 yo car but no rust anywhere on the body or the undercarriage but the engine cradle is almost completely rusted out to the point that the car is not safe to drive something is definitely wrong and reading others reporting the same issue I don’t know there car’s condition but like I said mine is rust free even the undercarriage but the engine cradle is totally rusted out something is wrong here Chrysler had to know something about this it should be recalled or at the very least make the engine cradle available for purchase and fix the rusting issue with it!! I have literally replaced the entire suspension front and back new shocks and struts tires brakes trying to fix the rattle to find out it’s the cradle bushings and cradle are the issue and it’s no longer offered and used ones are all damaged by rust it’s pretty bad the car is going to have to be junked unless I put another used damaged engine cradle on it ! What to do ?

CAR WAS STATIONARY IN RESIDENTIAL DRIVEWAY. TRANSMISION WOULD NOT SHIFT OUT OF PARK. THE SIMPLE RELEASE MECHANISM DID NOT HELP. TOOK CONSOL APART. AS DESCRIBED ON YOUTUBE VIDEOS, COULD SEE THAT THE PINK PLASTIC PART WAS BROKEN SO SPRING DID NOT OPERATE. FOUND OPENING SO I COULD ROTATE THE PINK PART WITH FINGER AND GET OUT OF PARK. THIS PROBLEM SOUNDS EXACTLY LIKE PROBLEMS COVERED BY RECALL K39, BUT MY MODEL IS APPARENTLY NOT COVERED. WHY IS IT NOT COVERED? SHOULD CHRYSLER COVER THE REPAIR?

WHEN I WAS DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY (DRIVING 45 MI/HR), IT STOPPED MOVING ACCELERATING (SEEMS LIKE THE CAR IS ACTUALLY SLOWING DOWN) EVEN WHEN I WAS STEPPING ON THE GAS PEDAL. AND THEN THE CAR STALLED.......IT WAS A GOOD THING I WAS ON THE VERY RIGHT SIDE OF THE LANE. THE FUEL PUMP MODULE AND/OR THE POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE (PCM) SOFTWARE MAY ALLOW THE ENGINE TO STALL UNDER CERTAIN OPERATING CONDITIONS, INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH. DEALERS WILL NEED TO REPROGRAM/REPLACE THE PCM/TCM AND/OR REPLACE THE FUEL PUMP MODULE TO CORRECT THIS CONCERN. IN MOST CASES, ASIDE FROM STALLING AND ENGINE REVVING UP AND DOWN ON ITS OWN, THERE'S A LOT OF HARD JERKING WHEN DRIVING THE VEHICLE. IT SEEMS LIKE THE ENGINE HAS A MIND OF ITS OWN SINCE WHEN I ACCELERATE, THE CAR WILL NOT MOVE OR DELAY IN MOVING FORWARD AND IF I LET GO OF THE GAS, THE CAR MOVES FORWARD. IT'S A SAFETY CONCERN.

FRONT SUB-FRAME HAS RUSTED THROUGH RENDERING THE VEHICLE UNSAFE TO DRIVE. THIS IS THE EXACT SAME FAILURE AS MANY OTHER REPORTS YOU HAVE RECEIVED ON THIS VINTAGE, MAKE AND MODEL VEHICLE. FCA HAS REFUSED TO OFFER ANY ASSISTANCE TOWARD THE REPAIR AND MY LOCAL MECHANIC REPORTED THAT NEW REPLACEMENT SUB-FRAMES ARE NOT EVEN AVAILABLE - LEAVING CONSUMERS WITH THE CHOICE OF RECYCLING THE VEHICLE AT A SALVAGE YARD, REPAIRING IT WITH WHAT IS OBVIOUSLY FLAWED OEM COMPONENTS, OR KEEP IT AS LAWN DECORATION. I HAVE TAKEN THE VEHICLE OFF THE ROAD AND AM THANKFUL THE PROBLEM WAS DISCOVERED PRIOR TO MY WIFE OR SON EXPERIENCING A CATASTROPHIC FAILURE WHILE DRIVING. IT IS ONLY A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE SOMEONE LOOSES A LIFE BECAUSE OF THIS DEFECT. BE PROACTIVE AND FORCE FCA TO REPAIR THESE FAILURES - REGARDLESS OF MILEAGE - OR THIS ORGANIZATION IS PART OF THE PROBLEM.

I HAVE OWNED THIS VEHICLE FOR ALMOST TWO YEARS WITH MINIMAL ISSUES. ALL OF A SUDDEN THREE DAYS AGO, I WAS DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY AND THE ACCELERATOR STOPPED WORKING. THE CAR DID NOT SHUT OFF JUST KIND OF SPUTTERED LIKE IT WANTED TO CUT OFF. I HAD TO MANEUVER MY WAY TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. EVENTUALLY I ENDED UP HAVING IT TOWED TO MY HOME. NOW I AM WITHOUT A VEHICLE. I WAS TOLD IT COULD BE THE PCM, ECM OR THE TRANSMISSION.

MY VEHICLE BEGAN STALLING WHILE BEING DRIVEN ON THE STREET AND HIGHWAYS, WHEN TURNING AND WHILE STOPPED FOR LIGHT CHANGES. HAD TO HAVE BATTERY "JUMPED" OR CHARGED SEVERAL TIMES. BATTERY HAD TO BE REPLACED TWICE BECAUSE OF DISCHARGED FROM ALTERNATOR. HAD ALTERNATOR REPLACED. BATTERY CONTINUED TO DRAINED. VEHICLE RAN FOR ONE DAY AND COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN WHILE IN MOTION. AFTER JUMP STARTING THE BATTERY, VEHICLE RAN FOR A COUPLE OF MINUTES. WAS TOLD BY SERVICE MECHANICS, BATTERY OR ALTERNATOR PROBLEMS EVEN AFTER HAVING THOSE PARTS REPLACED. FINALLY HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO DEALERSHIP THAT SPECIALIZED IN CHRYSLERS AND WAS SHOCK WHEN HE STATED IT WAS THE PCM (POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE) WHICH I BELIEVED AND RESEARCHED WAS PART A RECALL FOR 2005 PACIFICAS IN 2006. TOLD BY THE DEALERSHIP THAT THE FUEL PUMP WAS FIXED WHICH IS NOT THE PROBLEM OF THIS VEHICLE. THE PCM IS THE PROBLEM, AND THE DEALERSHIP IS NOT OWNING THIS. I DID NOT PURCHASE THE VEHICLE UNTIL 2010; SO I HONESTLY BELIEVED THAT THIS PROBLEM WAS NOT REPAIR BUT CLAIMED TO HAD BEEN. WHEN REFERENCING THE RECALL NOTIFICATION (WHICH I DID NOT RECEIVE PERSONALLY), THE FUEL PUMP PROBLEM WAS REPLACED FOR 2004 MODELS NOT 2005 MODELS. PCM PROBLEMS WERE THAT OF THE 2005 MODELS WHICH WAS NOT REPAIRED OR REPLACED FOR THIS VEHICLE. I HAVE HAD MY VEHICLE TOWED APPROXIMATELY 7 TIMES NOW. I AM STILL PAYING INSURANCE FOR A VEHICLE THAT IS UNABLE TO BE DRIVEN. THE DEALERSHIP WANTS TO CHARGE ME $1000 FOR REPAIR, THAT IS A LITTLE LESS THAT HALF OF WHAT THE VEHICLE IS WORTH.

I CALLED CHRYSTLER WITH THE VIN # AND WAS TOLD THIS 1 WASN'T PART OF THE RECALL EVEN THOUGH IT WAS THE SAME YEAR AND MAKE OF THE RECALL. I OWE 4,400$ ON THE CAR AND NOW AM TOLD THE REPAIRS WOULD EXCEED 5,000$. I FINANCED IT FOR 6,455$ AT THE START. I'M DISABLED AND GREATLY IN NEED OF HELP, I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO I HAVE MADE A SLEW OF CALLS TO NO AVAIL AT THIS POINT AND CONTINUE TO MAKE PAYMENTS AS I DON'T WANT TO RUIN MY CREDIT, PLEASE HELP ME, I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO.
