Pacifica in NYC

Having two toddlers, I was looking into an MDX truck or Honda Odyssesy Minivan. Unfortunately, I opted for the new Chrysler Pacifica--it looks better than it drives-I also got more for my money than a foreign car--so I thought! I get alot of "what's that car?" Little do they know- After an extra $7,000 on the top of the MSRP I thought I hit a homerun. Well it was a foul ball....Let me begin. It bottoms out, can not see rear view parking-mirrors should adjust, as there should be a camera in the rear for parking into my navigation system, this "crossover" is eating my gas with no power.
Impressed so far

Our long driveway slopes from 20 to 35 degrees. So during snowy weather, two wheel drive vehicles don't stand a chance. The Pacifica's AWD goes up and down the hill with very little slippage and gives us confidence. (We had the dealer swap the OE tires with Goodyear Forteras) We have been extremely pleased with the comfort of the ride and the quietness of the cab. In fact those were the 2 main reasons we chose the Pacifica over the Pilot, which we found to be rather stiff and noisy on the highway. The rear seats are comfortable, even the third row is very sedan like.

Purchased this car with 50k miles on it. Since purchase is has been to the dealer for a total of about 3 weeks. We had to rebuild the first motor, then replace it 6 months later. Had to replace the intake manifold, motor mounts 3 separate times. If it can break it will. It now sits in a parking lot awaiting a tow due to it stalling while idling through the lot. Cant get rid of this thing because its a chrysler and its worthless to the dealerships, 9k dollars upside down in the loan due to lousy blue book value.

I've owned and/or driven many good cars. My last car was an suv and it was big because we have huge dogs. I was looking for a new suv and had driven the Volvo xc90, various Toyota suvs and a Mitsubishi Montero. When I went on my test drive in the Pacifica, i knew that this was the car for me. Having owned 4 Mercedes, I can see Daimler's influence.
So far so good!

Just got my Pacifica, I have less than 1000 miles on it so far. Power is better than expected, and I've gotten 19-20 mpg in 70/30 hwy driving. No glitches or defects so far, although I question how durable the power seats will be long term. Ride is very comfortable. Love the style and the high seating without the climb!
a lot for the money

The Car is a modern station wagon. The power isn't great, but it will do for a mother of 2 and 2 dogs. You have to be carefull of blind spots. About the same as any other SUV. Its unique, but will it last? It has to Mercedes bet a lot on it. Shares a lot of interior style with Mercedes. You get a lot of car for 35g. Much more than GM. The DVD is great. I give it high marks for toys...Average for power, good for ride. Don't pay more than invoice. They gave me 500 under plus 3000 cash back. They aren't flying out.

THE RADIO VOLUME NOB IS A LITTLE CLOSE TO THE SEEK BUTTON GETS KNOCKED OFF THE STATION.THE DVD BLOCKS THE VIEW OUT THE REAR WINDOW. THE CAR IS A EXCELLENT CAR AND I'M VERY HAPPY WITH IT A B+ FOR ME.

Have a 2000 300M that we like and were looking to get a newer one, but decided this would work out well for travelling. So far it has done so. Very comfortable to travel in. Would have liked better mileage, but it beats the sticker when on a trip, so can't complain too much about that. Only have 4,000 miles so far, may get better as it breaks in.
Pacifica gets an A+ for safety & style!

The Pacifica gets 5 stars overall. It's safety ratings are #1 in all categories. The comfort and ride is luxurious and the standard options match most luxury SUV's on the market. The 3.5 6 cyclinder 250 hp engine can be added to for a better 0-60sec acceleration rating (currently at about 9-9.5sec). Maybe with an additional 25-50hp or a V8 option this too will improve. The vehicle does well with it's passing acceleration. As for price the Pacifica can't be beat since Chrysler added a $3,000 manufacture rebate. Many dealer will add to this with between $500 to $4000 in additional rebates making this vehicle the best buy for under $30,000!!

Had window gear replaced. Clicking noise in tight turns. Was told it was in transmission. Both were fixed and is still working. A air noise in sunroof is still there after two inspections. Service manager says he hears it. But they don't have a fix. So it is declared a "No compromise". I guess tha means they hear it,can't fix it, so live with it. Hard to ignore when it's right over your head. I have heard from other chysler owners having the same problems with sunroof on other models. Other than that I really do enjoy driving my Pacfica.

Style. Room. Surefooted. Smooth. Features galore. Overall a suitable car for a man with a family and a need for better than average handling and weekend runs to Home Depot or Lowes. Our two labradors love to make nose prints on the back windows. Car expresses some reticence to climb mountain roads at altitude with anything resembling athletisism. If BMW would make an X-7 or 7 series wagon, the folks at Daimler-Chrysler would have had no opportunity to build it for them. Granted this car lacks the build quality of the Bavarian it aspires to be.

I love to drive this wagon/suv. I bought it used it had 37,000 miles. I did have three experiences with the car stalling in about a weeks time(two after it sat outside in the cold and one on the highway), but it hasn't done it since. I also chalked it up to letting the gas mileage get below 30 miles in the tank before I filled it up.

We recently purchased the Pacifica after experiencing a roll-over accident in a GMC Envoy. We targeted this vehicle because of a lower center of gravity, thus less likely to rollover. Just returned from a 2100 mile roadtrip and was very pleased with the ride and performance. MPG was higher than expected. Many looks from curious people seeing it for the first time. Very impressed so far.

At 35000 miles transmission began mis-shifting, jerking, 11 weeks 5 visits at dealer between 35 and 67000 miles Told transmission OK rebuilt AWD. Told I believe they thought I had unrealistic expectations. Mis-shifting when down shifting 60 to 80 mph. At 67,000 miles on the highway transmission failed completely. Dealer told me transmission not repairable. Fortunately had extended warranty. Now low gear shifting OK; still mis-shifts at high speeds. A bad quirky transmission.

We weren't planning on getting a new car this year, but a rear-ending accident, totalling my Chrysler Town and Country suddenly put us in the market. We were pretty much ready to by either a new mini-van (not my first choice) or a large SUV when my wife saw a commercial for the Pacifica. We decided to take a look over the weekend and halfway through the test drive, we were both sold. The Pacifica is so unique in many ways both my wife and I love it. And we get plenty of attention from the curious where ever we go.

The Pacifica handles and rides excellent. Small to medium holes in the road are barely felt when driving. Very quiet inside the car while driving. Sound system is excellent. I like how the second row adjust front to back, and the center console is great for storage and drinks.

I found the vehicle quite responsive and causing a great deal of questions and attention. The mignight blue color shows every piece of dirt or smear. Do not recommend. The interior leather is a beautiful piece of design and work. Small thing, but I love the analog clock. In former cars, I had great difficulty reading the digital types. I have only driven 1100 miles so take my critique with a grain of salt,

Saw the Pacifica at the 2003 Pittsburgh Auto show. Wanted a change from the Town & Country vans we have been driving. Love everything about the car except two things. Being 6'7" I need leg room. I would have more if Chrysler would redesign the tilt lever and also move the ignition placement. Twice I've hit the key with the car running and have shut off the engine. My left knee is a tight fit between the door and Tilt lever. Chrysler please fix. Other than that it's a great vehicle. Ordered the INFERNO RED car with light Taupe interior.

My wife and I are very satisfied with the Pacifica. We have owned, Hondas, Toyotas, Mazdas, Nissans, as well as other American made cars. It is the best vehicle that we have owned. It is very solid (like a Volvo) and handles well. The styling is very popular with our friends.

Granted,we have only had our Pacifica for 37 days, but we've had it long enough to say that it is the finest driving, finest riding vehicle we have ever been in-bar none. It is everything we wanted, and more. One interesting side note-it really seems to cause a lot of staring. If we pull up next to another vehicle at a street corner, more often than not, we notice people checking out the car.

We drove a number of these before we bought one and loved the way they road. However this one after we bought it seemed to ride rougher than the others. It seems to shake back and forth when going down streets at 35 to 4o mph. Highway driving is great.

I've had the Pacifica AWD for about a 1 1/2 yrs (bought it used at a decent price) and the only complaint is the gas mileage but I knew that buying it. My needs changed so I travel more now so want something similar with better MPG but can't haven't found anything I like better yet but an '07 (4.0L engine) Pacifica. I have a loaded one and don't want to give up all the features.

Purchased car 2 months ago and have driven physically had it maybe 3 wks it has been back to the dealer sitting there because it would just shut off while driving. No matter where you are on the highway, back roads doing 60 or 20 making turns or going straight it will just shut off then hopefully you can coast safely to the side. It hasn't killed anyone yet so Chrysler has "no fix" As we speak it sits in clinton with "no fix" and I have a great rental, may i recommend the Yukon? It's a reliable car!

I went from a mini van to the Pacifica. It has more room than my mini van. I have 2 sons that are both teenagers and need lots of room. They love sitting in the bucket seats and have more than enough leg room. They do not feel cramped at all. I love the convience of the rear latch opener. It handles well on the road and the options included are superior!
Great new car for 2004

I bought my Pacifica in February, picked it up in the middle of a snowstorm, and it was great. I thought going from an SUV to this car was going to be a problem, but it wasn't. It is a great car and my son loves it too. He wanted a mini van and I wanted a car. This is somewhere inbetween.

I love this ride! I love the memory seats with the controls on the door. It only takes the push of one button after my husband, who is a foot taller than me, has driven it. With my short legs the adjustable pedals put an end to my sitting on the steering wheel. The front, rear, side and roof air bags I hope I will never have to use but a great comfort to have, just in case. It's great at the drive in!

We chose to add all the available features to upgrade our car to include all the features we always really wanted in a car- the leather seat pkg., dvd and entertainment up grade, sunrooof, nav. system, ect. and the price was still reasonable. Compared to a comp. equiped Cadillac, Lexus, or VW it was a deal. It might not have the status of the previously mentioned models but its comfort and appointments are just as nice. Weare very pleased. The only real drawback we have found is the lack of visibility when backing up. This could be solved by adding the rear sensor option from Mopar. Other than that we love our Pacifica!

I do love my Pacifica, it has everything I could possibly need in a car with 2 children and a husband. I love the DVD player and the navagation and heated leather seats and 6 disk cd changer. The all wheel drive makes it awsome in the snow. I love the trunk space, I can fit a double stroller and my second stroller and still have room for my groceries, or we can empty it and go out for ice cream and sit on the edge of the back. It is reliable even thought it is in dire need of repair, needed brakes/rotars for over 8 months and it still stops for me, I have had many noises coming from the front end and now my power stearing is going. I need battery. already replaced muffler/tires. 88,000

I have had my Pacifica for 5 months now and it has been in the shop with 3 MAJOR problems. The first time an airbag sensor went out and the part was on back order for 6 weeks!!! That's right...no airbags for 6 weeks. Next an antilock brake sensor went bad...no anti lock brakes for over a week. And then a wheel hub assembly went bad..no wonder chrysler gives u a free loaner for this car!!!!!

Every where we go in southern California, we get more looks than when I am in my Porsche. My wife and I laugh at all the attention the Pacifica gets. The vehicle is the most impressive vehicle I have owned, ever! The ride is awesome and quiet, the amenities are great. We make excuses to go places just so we can drive in the car! Honestly, I believe the Pacifica has set a new standard for SUV's and Mini Vans in appearance and luxury.
I was hooked at the looks and performanc

We have fully enjoyed our Pacifica. We used it for a vacation from So. Dakota to California. We had 3 adults and 1 child 5 yrs old. We met my daughter and a friend in Calif. so we ended up as 6 people in car. My grandaughter was a joy to take and I think the comfort of the vehicle helped alot. Also having the dvd player kept her occupied. The gas mileage was good, both on highway and around town. The GPS system helped alot when we were in the Los Angles area. We had plenty of storage space and lots of foot room in the 3 row seat. We alsolutely love this vehicle, it is the first SUV we have every bought and I will definately buy another one in the future

I bought the first one sold in Baton Rouge, and absolutely love this vehicle. I just don't know what to call it--it's not an offroad SUV, nor a van, nor a station wagon. Chrysler wants us to say "sports tourer", but thats clumbsy and not really accurate. Tourer YES, but sporty-NOT REALLY. Two hundred and fifty HP is not enough to to make it sporty. But it handles the corners with surprising agility. The interior is very well appointed, and VERY wide. The exterior design is very appealing, as is the interior. It is a real head-turner.
