Filed May 18, 2021 · Engine, Fuel system · OH

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 federal safety agency look into this problem. It also is known to happen to 2005 and 2006 Pacificas.

Vehicle randomly shuts off while driving without warning of any kind. It's happened 5 times in the last month, it is usually "chilly" out (40f or lower) but we just got the vehicle a month ago so hasn't been warm yet. 2 of the times were while driving on a city street and 3 just leaving our driveway.

Random stalling w/ all functions stopping. Brakes, steering..ect. Took it to several licensed/certified mechanics and not 1 of them can tell me what is wrong. This has nearly caused 2 serious crashes so I no longer allow anyone to ride in the car with me. The stalling has happened on the highway going nearly 70mph, on a 2 lane highway through town with heavy traffic going approx. 35 MPH, its happened in my neighborhood street, on the way home from work on a country road (several times). The vehicle hasn't ever stalled while running and stationary. For me this has only happened while in motion

Takata recall since november my car has randomly been stalling while I'm driving leaving me with no power steering or brakes. I have constantly taken it to get checked and no one can seem to find a problem with my engine or anything else. When I did some research I found out that previous model years had the same problem and were recalled.

Just bought vehicle and driving on the highway with small children when the car surged and abruptly stalled momentarily on a 60 MPH hwy. Would only drive in 1at and 2nd gear and had no way to exit off highway. Almost caused a car pile up as the vehicle behind me had to stomp on brakes abruptly. Mechanics are saying transmission. I haven't even had this for a week. It was extremely unsafe and I was terrified as I had 5 little lives in the vehicle at that time.
