Since I purchased this in 2008, I have replaced the axle, 2 wheel bearings a few months ago, a few years ago 1 ABS sensor was replaced via warranty but they wouldn't replace the other - which went out 2 months later. They knew it was going to. I replaced the transmission 2 years, the fuel pump & catalytic converter last year, just replaced the oil pan gasket 2 months ago, the radiator 2 weeks ago due to coolant lead, and now the water pump is leaking coolant. This is just what I can think of off the top of my head. It has been one problem after the other with this vehicle and I have spent a fortune on it. I can't afford to replace it & my VIN doesn't show up on the recalls.

Abs light came onwhile traveling in florida. Car makes grinding sound. Light goes on after driving awhile. Does not brake properly if light comes on while coming to a stop. Replace all brakes and sensors and still no help. Chrysler knows they have a problem and it is going to take someone dying before this gets fixed. There have been thousands of complaints on this at much lower mileages than my car. Please do something. Either chryler knows what the fix is and does not care or at this point they really do not know what to do and will not take responsibility.

I was driving at lower speeds, approaching a stop sign; driving down a hilly road in downtown nashville, tn. My ABS light suddenly came on as I pressed the brake it temporary made a grinding noise and brakes temporary failed then as suddenly as it happened the brakes stopped grinding and then stopped. This is a braking issue that came happen suddenly with no sign or warning before it happened!!!!!!!! The ABS brake sensors or some mysterious other ABS related issue that is stomping mechanics.I took my vehicle in the next day and had brakes replaced but the problem continues. My brakes work fine but at times I would get the ABS light signal coming on then like a scrubbing noise seem to be coming from the front wheels well brakes causing difficulty in stopping. But not at all times. Sometimes this happens with no ABS light coming on! And this usually happens at lower speeds 30 and under even at 15-20 MPH when I am breaking for a red light or stop sign. I saw on sites where thousands of people hare having the same problem and were told by dealerships and mechanics that even after those are replaced the problem continues, no one seems to be able to find out what the real problem is and chrysler won't even try to fix my vehicle was working fine the all of a sudden, the issue. I think this is a dangerous situation.I think there should be a recall on the ABS wheel sensors and the module control or whatever the real problem is? Only chrysler knows butr they are not telling!!! I think if they won't address then the government should make them please include this int he current recall let's get these unsafe vehicles off the roadways!!! Now is a good time to doit, with the recall of other like vechiles from chrysler are already in recalln

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 chrysler pacifica. While driving at 65 MPH, the brake pedal was depressed but the vehicle failed to stop. The contact felt a vibration coming from the brake pedal. The contact had to shift the gear into neutral in order to stop the vehicle. The ABS and engine warning lights illuminated. In addition, "new fuel cap" was displayed across the message board. The vehicle was taken to the dealer multiple times and the fuel cap was replaced. The dealer was unable to diagnose or repair the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who diagnosed that the rotors needed to be resurfaced. The vehicle was repaired; however, the failure recurred. The vehicle was taken back to the mechanic who was unable to diagnose or repair the vehicle. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 80,000.

I have had my car from 2011 till current and replaced the front axles/tie rods at least 3 to 4 times a year. Last incident it broke while pulling out of drive way and I lost control and rolled down a hill into 4 lanes of traffic narrowly missing the gas pumps at the station across the 4 lane thank goodness no one hit me with my young child in the car. When I first had to take it to a dealer to get them changed 2 other cars in this small town I live in were there also having there's replaced. This should be a recall every person I talk to states this is a problem that is arising from a rusted cradle problem when manufacturing the car. I would like my car repaired where this will no longer happen and it is too expensive for me to fix. I have decided to look further into this issue and maybe come together with other with this issue. There should of been a recall by now. I had my oil changed and was told that my boot is busted and that I needed to replace the drivers side yet again and I do not have 119.00 to pay my local dodge for this yet again!

My wife was going 35mph in town. Coming to an intersection she needed to turn. No brakes or steering, both stopped working. Luckily no one hit her and she was able to stop before hitting the telephone pole. I have seen a number of people online with similar issues.
