Defect investigations
Transmission fault leading to loss of motive power
On July 22, 2022, the Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) opened PE22008 to investigate allegation of loss of motive power, potentially due to transmission malfunction, in certain Chrysler Pacifica vehicles. In a January 17, 2023 letter to the federal safety agency, Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA) submitted recall notice 23V‑010 involving a transmission motor wiring defect in 67,118 model year (MY) 2017-2023 Chrysler Pacifica plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) manufactured from August 12, 2016 through January 9, 2023. FCA determined that an internal transmission connector short could result in an unexpected engine shutdown under certain conditions. Follow up correspondence with FCA confirmed this defect results in an electric motor position trouble code that was the basis for opening PE22008, therefore the federal safety agency is closing this investigation. The 23V‑010 recall remedy is a software update to address the hardware failure associated with PE22008. When a hardware failure is detected, the vehicle limits motive power while instructing the driver to pull over to a safe location. the federal safety agency is concerned that drivers will pull over to an unsafe location when the warning message associated with the recall remedy displays on the dashboard. Due to the nature of the recall remedy and related reports, the federal safety agency has opened Recall Query RQ24004 to assess the recall remedy. The reports and failure report summary values included with this closing action are related to allegations of Recall 23V‑010 remedy inadequacy. The Agency reserves the right to take additional action if warranted by future circumstances. To review the ODI reports cited in the Closing Resume ODI Report Identification Number document, go to

What 2024 Chrysler Pacifica owners say
Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
Vehicle has had ongoing electrical and transmission issues. Was purchased in 2024 w/6k miles, under warranty. Now on 10th service at 47K miles, including two shifter replacements, a full transmission replacement, and three battery (main and aux) replacements. On the most recent service, team could not diagnose the cause of the battery drain, but noted "battery so overcharged it was on the verge of exploding". It is important to note that this battery was installed as of March of 2026. The vehicle clearly has a parasitic draw or a failing alternator/voltage regulator that is frying the shifter electronics. If this vehicle suffers a thermal event or complete powertrain failure on the highway after I was sent away with an unresolved shifting issue, the paper trail shows a clear failure to repair a pre-existing safety hazard reported under warranty."
While driving, the vehicle suffered a sudden, severe, and un-commanded complete loss of propulsion and motive power on a live roadway, posing an immediate crash hazard. * Sequential Fault Chain: 1. An audible, physical "pop" was heard emanating from beneath the engine bay/high-voltage system compartment. 2. Immediate loss of acceleration and propulsion. 3. Simultaneous illumination of the Check Engine Light, a "Service Charging System" warning message, and a "Turtle" (absolute critical limp-mode) dashboard icon. 4. Electrical failure cascading to the interior control panel and displays, which flickered and went entirely dark while the vehicle was still rolling. 5. Abrupt, un-commanded physical engagement of the Electronic Parking Brake (EPB) as the vehicle slowed down, locking the rear wheels on a live road. 6. Total electrical blackout, rendering the hazard lights completely inoperable and leaving a dead vehicle entirely un-illuminated in active traffic.
Hybrid system completely failed cause the vehicle to come to a complete stop withing 2-3 seconds. It resulted in my van getting rear ended.
Received a recall notice the end of XXX for 06D/the federal safety agency 26V‑189. Wife called local dealership on XXX to set up an appointment. Person said someone will call you back in 24 to 48 hours. No one called. I called XXX Talked to same person my wife talked to. Said showed wife called in and told me same thing. No one ever called. Thought maybe we were put on a list and would be called when parts came in. XXX called dealership. Talked to an advisor. Said they would transfer my call. Got message on phone to leave short message and would call back. No identification so not sure what place l left message to. XXX. No one called so I called the [XXX] number and explained what has happened so far. They said they would call the dealership and call me back. They called back and said the talked to the service manager and parts were on back order and would call me back. XXX. No one has called back. The way things are going I don’t know for sure if I’m on a repair list. I was hoping for something from the dealership confirming that as soon as parts came in I would be called. Should I wait for ever to be called? Should I wait until there is an accident that caused injury or worse? Just need some assurance.

Car completely powered off , abs replaced, transmission shifter , replaced batteries once and now the aux battery again, car not even 3 years old. Safety issue when vehicle is just dying while in motion
There were no warnings prior to the event. I was driving the vehicle and parked at a car wash to clean the interior. After cleaning, I started the car. I checked and the indicator light on the EPB (parking brake) button was off. I tried to move the vehicle but the parking brake was clearly engaged. I pressed the button several times. Nothing changed. The indicator light would not go on. I tried turning the car off/on. I tried to enter maintenance mode which failed without explanation - just a generic error. Finally, I got out, locked the car and waited ten minutes. When I got back in and started it, the indicator finally went on and I was able to disengage the brake. It is a severe design flaw that there is not a lever or pedal to operate this brake. The electronics were evidently not tested sufficiently. The parking brake should not be stuck with no way to release it and my understanding is that other owners have reported this problem. This is a safety issue that should be covered by Chrysler. I was told they would cover the diagnostic and then told they would not. Then I was told to ask the dealer about assistance to cover the diagnostic cost. The dealer had no idea what that was. If we can't rely on the brake to release, that teaches us to never use the parking brake. That is a safety hazard. There is no reliable way for the owner to control the braking system. It is furthermore unreasonable for the owner to be held responsible financially for this defect.
Vehicle AC was blowing warm but car was operating normally with no obvious issues. After approximately three hours of driving car abruptly lost power and lit a warning light and shut off. The dealership was able to diagnose the AC failure, and now I understand that the AC is integrated into the battery system and inoperable AC failure constitutes a critical component failure leading to rapid overheating. No warning or reasonable means to anticipate this failure was supplied prior to incident. Additionally, the car is ~2yrs old and should not be experiencing critical component failures related to safety.
An authorized dealer did a recall repair on my vehicle without my explicit consent. Not verbally nor in writing. Completion of said repair resulted in a botched outcome. Service manager was made aware but did not remedy the situation.
While I was driving to drop my kids to school My Chrysler Pacifica PHEV dashboard chimed, the check engine light made an appearance, and the screen in my gauge cluster showed a large warning message. “Stop Safely, Vehicle Will Shut Off Soon.” I kept my foot in it and guided the Pacifica Hybrid through the off-ramp and into the rest stop’s parking lot And turned off the ignition and engine for 5 minutes and I started the engine and car allowed me to drive back home . The power tram warning got away that evening when I started my engine . The same problem came back again many times since then. I googled it and found that this is very serious problem which may lead fire .i would like to report this issue now.
