2007 Chrysler Pacifica Problems

Engine Sub Frame-AKA Engine Cradle is rotting out. Vehicle was inspected on July 6, 2023 at Jim Rielh's Chrysler -Jeep Dealership located at 32899 Van Dyke, Warren Michigan 48093. The report came back as " FOUND FRONT ENGINE CRADLE / FRAME ROTTED / RUSTED OUT." This vehicle has been well maintained and has been Safety Inspected by the same dealership in 2021 & 2022 and never advised there was a problem with the Engine Cradle. Now in 2021, three engine mounts were replaced to correct clunking noises when accelerating, but again there was never an advisement of a potential Engine Cradle Rot. The vehicle had 127, 640 miles on it when it was inspected by the dealer. The results were reported to Chrysler Customer Care via email and by phone but no response as of today.

The engine cradle as well as the engine mounts along with the subframe have deteriorated uncommonly fast resulting in the vehicle involuntarily swerving into other lanes of traffic

The car has a lot of dangerous problems. For one I had my truck diagnosed and code came back as gas cap. Then it was electric problems after the replacement of the gas cap. Check engine light was still on. So I went for another diagnostic now is coming up power train. Went to 3 to 6 transmission shops and all told me different reasons solenoid, pcm, Tcm, or maybe it’s just shot all together is what the last shop told me. That’s a $3,000 repair and that’s ridiculous after I had all those pieces replaced. My car stills doesn’t shift gears as I’m driving I can’t really go over 40 or 50 mph because of high rpm’s. The car doesn’t shift gears and I’m hearing a loud whining noise as I drive. I was on the high way and could get off fast enough because of high rpm’s and the car not shifting and also automatically switches from drive to auto-stick on it’s on. Pls Help Me

TRANSMISSION SPLIT APART IT MADE A LOUD NOISE LIKE A PIECE WAS JUST FLYING AROUND IN DRIVE THEN ALL THE TRANSMISSION FLUID FLEW OUT EVERYWHERE AND THE TRANSMISSION IS SPLIT I DO HAVE PICTURES. PLEASE SEE ATTACHED.

AFTER PUTTING IN GAS IN THE CAR IT WILL DIE AS IF IT IS NOT GETTING GAS AND WHEN FILLING UP I HAVE TO PUMP SLOW BECAUSE IT ACTS LIKE IT IS NOT TAKING THE GAS. ITS DIED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS WHILE DRIVING WITHOUT ANY WARNING. IN TRAFFIC GOINF THROUGH A LIGHT IT SHUT OFF AS IF IT HAD NO GAS. THE CAR THEN WILL NOT TURN ON THE KEY TURNS OVER BUT SPUTTERS. ONCE I PUMP ON THE GAS AFTER 3 OR MORE ATTEMPTS IT COME ON. WE HAVE REPLACED THE FUEL PUMP AND AUTOZONE CODE GAVE P0461 FUEL LEVEL SENSOR A AS THE PROBLEM. THIS IS DANGEROUS AS THE CAR JUST SHUTTING OFF WHILE DRIVING AND UNABLE TO START IN TRAFFIC OR JUST SHUTTING DOWN ON THE HIGHWAY. THE OIL LIGHT COMES ON AS WELL. THERES A NOISE LIKE A TICKING SOUND I CAN HEAR BY THE GAS TANK WHEN I SHUT OFF THE CAR. AS SOON AS I LEFT THE GAS STATION TODAY I HAD IT IN DRIVE ABOUT TO TURN ON THE STREET WITH TRAFFIC COMING AND IT SHUT OFF AND WOULS NOT TURN ON FOR ABOUT 10 MINUTES. I WAS LUCKY I DID NOT GET HIT.

After fueling, especially if the take is full. The engine will die several times in the first 5 or more miles driven. Of course, this also means no power steering. You may be turning at an intersection, on a freeway or just traveling on a surface street. Still, you are without power and no power steering putting the car and occupants in danger. Usually, putting the car in neutral and starting gets you going again, at least until the next event. We have had as many a 5 such events on a 4.5 mile drive home form the gas station. This has now progressed. The last fill up, the nozzle cut of several times and restart over and over to finally fill the take. We knew it could take more fuel, Ultimately it took on 15 Gallons. This time, even after the second day and about 20 miles on the car it will still die at random, especially at idle, say at a stop light. Also with this phenomenon, when the gas gouge gets to just below a half of a tank reading, it may suddenly drop to (E) empty. This is not a good feeling, even though we know it is a bogus reading. The gauge may or may not read correctly at about a half tank the next time the car is started, after an overnight rest. We suspect this may relate to the saddle bag fuel tank system. Currently the check engine light is on, solid, not flashing. However, this problem after a fill up has occurred when there was no check engine light active. Our mechanic is aware of the problems and we are scheduling a visit again and will make sure he is aware of all of these issues. Safety issue, yeah, like suddenly rear-ended or t boned with loss of power and almost impossible steering without power steering. Thankfully, the emergency flashers work fine.

Several Times while driving and often when turning at a slow speed the Pacifica stalls. This is a common problem with no help from Chrysler. No codes come up and several mechanics and dealers have tried to fix the problem to no avail and at a lot of expense. In checking this problem out on the internet, many, many people have complained about this problem because it is highly dangerous and puts peoples lives at risk! Why doesn't Chrysler investigate and find the reason and provide a fix or why won't the NHTSA look into this problem. It also is known to happen to 2005 and 2006 Pacificas.

My Chrysler Pacifica 2007 4.0L Shifter Check Engine Light Was On. I Took It To Get Diagnosed It Came Back Ass Gas Cap My Inboard Computer Even Read Gas-cap. So I Replaced It And The Check Engine Light Was Gone. I Say A Week Later My I Was Parked An Tried To Put The Car In Drive I Wouldn't Shift Shifter Broken Only To Find Out It Was A Piece Inside The Shifter. So I Replaced That And After Replacement Of That Now I’m Having Transmission And Electric Problems. The Car Shifts Rough And As I’m Driving The Car Doesn’t Shifts Gears Now Also Will Shift Into Auto-stick On It’s On. I’ll Put My Car Into Drive An As I’m Proceeding To Drive Say At 20mph My Rpm’s A Stay At x2000 I’ll Continue To Speed Up To 30,40 mph And My Rpm’s Will Be The Same As If My Transmission Isn’t Shifting Gears Also Hear A Whining Noise As I Drive. Replaced Transmission Inner And Outer sensors Still Having The Same Problem. Now He’s Saying My Transmission Is Shot All Together. I Put In Total $800. In repairs after the purchase of this car and its my only car RN. It’s basically idling up and not switching gears I’ve been to 3 to 5 transmission shops and auto body shops.

IM WORRIED I DONT HAVE A NOTHER VEHICLE .

MY CAR STOPS RUNNING SHORTLY AFTER DRIVING WITHIN A FEW MINUTES WITH ZERO WARNING. WHEN THIS HAPPENS THE POWER STEERING AND BREAKS STOP FUNCTIONING.

THE STALLING STARTED AT THE TIME WHEN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND 'GASCAP' WARNING MESSAGE CAME ON - PERMANENTLY. THE MECHANICS HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO FINE THE PROBLEM AND THERE ARE NO COMPUTER CODE READINGS. HAS THERE BEEN A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM FROM CHRYSLER?

THIS VEHICLE HAS HAD ONE MAJOR ISSUE WITH THE FUEL SYSTEM. WHEN THE FUEL GAUGE GETS TO HALF WAY, THE GAUGE DROPS TO E AND DOES NOT WANT TO ACCEPT GAS. IT ACTS LIKE IT'S FULL AND YOU CAN BARELY PUT ANY GAS IN. WHEN THIS HAPPENS THE VEHICLE ACTS LIKE IT'S OUT OF GAS EVEN WHEN IT'S NOT CAUSING ME TO RUN OUT OF GAS WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE INTERSTATE AND SOMETIMES THE CAR WON'T EVEN START WHEN IT DROPS BELOW HALF WAY.ALSO, MY ODOMETER READS GASCAP LIKE THERE'S A LEAK BUT IT'S A BRAND NEW GAS CAP. I'VE READ DAYS WORTH OF INFORMATION ON THE WORLD WIDE WEB AND THIS IS THE MOST COMMON ISSUE BUT NOONE HAS DONE ANYTHING ABOUT IT. IT IS NOT FAIR TO THE CONSUMER. I KNOW I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER CHRYSLER AND I WILL WARN OTHERS NOT TO ALSO. NOT ONLY THAT BUT MY SEATBELTS DO NOT WORK ANYMORE, TWO OF THEM ANYWAY. MY KIDS HAVE TO SIT IN THE FAR BACK TO BUCKLE UP. I BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE USED. I'VE HAD THE FUEL PUMPS REPLACED, THE VAPOR CANISTER AND VAPOR FILTER REPLACED, GAS CAP, ECT. NOTHING REPAIRS THE ISSUE. I KNOW NOW WHY THE PREVIOUS OWNER GAVE IT UP, IF I DIDN'T HAVE TO PAY A DOWN PAYMENT, I WOULD HAVE ALREADY LET IT GO BACK.
