While driving at 60 mph on the highway the engine shut down without warning. Failed to restart 20 times, then shut off Automatic Engine Start/Stop feature and it immediately was able to be restarted. Chrysler has no idea what has caused this issue on my Pacifica a(nd several other 2017 and 2018 units. It leaves no error codes in the computer so they can't diagnose it. They also have this same issue on some newer Wranglers that use the same engine. I don't drive mine that much and this issue has not happened on my Pacifica since the initial incident, but from what I've read on some of the forums, I should expect it to happen again. Hopefully next time, I will capture the incident on video if I can safely record it.

Very loud Grinding noise when backing out of driveway or parking space while the steering wheel was being turned. Returned van to CarMax and it was diagnosed as a bad axle.

After two weeks of trying to get a service appointment. I walked into CarMax to have the steering slop addressed from the first visit in July. We had just returned from a long weekend to the West Coast of FL with our dogs and the van was very hard to keep in its lane because of the steering slop. I've driven Army trucks that were easier. Van was taken to local Chrysler dealer and the diagnosis was; Failed steering unit. Failed Strut bearings (Both sides), Failed front Struts (Both side) Failed sway bar ends (Both side) Day after Labor Day was the back order expected delivery date of the parts. Oct. 1st parts finally showed up. Repairs have started, in the meantime we have decided to replace this junk with a 2018 Honda Odyssey w/23K miles. Totally have lost any trust in this van, even if the entire steering system is now "New" This should not happen on a three year old van w/18,000 miles

CEL and sputtering engine - cylinder misfire. Also coolant empty and car temperature high warning message. Head gasket failure allowed coolant into cylinder. Replaced right cylinder head gasket and associated seals and hardware. Paint bubbling along front of hood. Chrysler contaced with pictures and dealer waiting to hear back. This seems to be a common problem. Aux battery not working, causing auto start/stop system to disable. Common failure, but out of warranty (36,000), so owner had to pay to replace.

The engine started to misfire. This is plug-in hybrid and the true gas engine mileage is less than 20,000 (car at ~50,000). We were sure this should be covered under warranty (powertrain). Dealer replaced the spark-plugs and charges us for the repair since "this is wear item". Recommended spark plug replacement by the dealer is every 100,000 miles. We did not win the argument unfortunately. The car was fixed and running Ok since than.

The shift (knob) module failed. It began with the vehicle not shifting out of park. Ignition was on, foot on brake, the knob turned, but the indicator stayed on "P" and just blinked. Took it to the dealership, they said we don't know, good luck. A couple of days later it left my wife and kids stranded in a parking lot after dark- the knob was locked and wouldn't turn at all. After 7 or 8 ignition cycles it finally worked. Took it to the dealership, they replaced the shifter knob module, and haven't had any more issues since then.

Factory recall on all 1300+ US and 300+ Canadian Pacifcia hybrids. Chrysler to officially announce recall July 24. I'm using a loaner from FCAU dealer until FCAU can figure out battery diode fix. NHTSA issued a recall June 7. Don't feel safe driving car, as car can potentially lose power and stall at any speed.
