Irritating hissing noise "characteristic
Comfort and options are very nice but apparently has a common problem that DC refuses to address ..... a hissing/spitting sound that telegraphs across the front of the vehicle when the AC compressor is engaged. Without masking noise (radio,etc.), it is like a "mosquito flying around your ear". Never had this with any other Chrysler product ('98 Intrepid ES, 2001 Town & Country). Even the most inexpensive Dodge Neon doesn't do this.
New car owner NOT happy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I've had my car in at least 6 different times for repairs. Three on the same matter I feel since I'm a women bringing the car in they don't listen as well, my husband will be dealing with Quinn Chrysler in the future.

Solid
More then we ever expected. Looks small from outside, but 4 adults fit very comfortable. I'm 6'4" and fit fine in all seats. We love it.
Worth It
This is the first new car we bought since our marriage 12 years ago. My wife wanted a 300C, but I wanted the Dodge Magnum. Finally, after consideration for our kids and long- distance traveling, practicality took hold and we "settled" on a loaded Pacifica, but what a great choice we made! I just returned from our latest trip to Eureka Springs, AR from our home in Oklahoma. The wife & kids had a great time but the most fun I had was driving on extremely steep, windy roads. I was astonished at how effortlessly the car took to the road. I passed several vehicles going as fast as they dared. I got 19.2 mpg for the 273 mile roundtrip, but 23.6 mpg on return leg by keeping speeds < 65 mph
Great Value for Money
I bought my 2005 touring model last year (2009). Although 4 years old when I got it with 79k on the odometer, bless the previous owner who obviously loved this car. In addition to the luxurious interior, comfort, quiet ride, great styling & road presence, I git it at a great price at $11,000 with 21,000 km left on the warranty. I purchased an additional bumper to bumper warranty for 2 years and never had to use it, thank God, based on some of the horror stories I've read here. The fact that Mercedes Benz had a key role in design and building this beauty is apparent in road handling and styling. Overall, I am very happy with my Pacifica or 'Fica' as my 5 year-old daughter lovingly calls it!
Kool Pac
I have had this car for three weeks and 3,000 miles now. Not a problem, drives like a dream, not too bad on gas for such a heavy car. 19 city and 25 highway. Drives like my volvo and rides better than my caddy. I love this car. Good quality fit and finish
this car is junk
when we purchased this vehicle,we were hoping for it to be the last one for a long time.Know we are falling back into the same situation again.The car has been nothing but trouble,we had to have the front tierods replaced at only 36000 miles,and it has been burning a half a quart of oil between oil changes and know the egr valve is going out with only 46000 miles on it.I don't know if there is anything that can be done about this but I would really like to know.
No more luxury cars for me
This car suits my needs perfectly. I had an Expedition, but it was too big. A van, but it was a VAN, luxury sedans, but I felt I had to be so neat and careful in them. This car is huge inside, tons of leg room, when using the autostick, you get a lot more get up and go and can zip in and out of traffic much better! I love that if I leave lights on, it shuts them off. DVD system separate from CD system ROCKS...
My Pacifica
To this point , 10,000 miles, I have had little or no problems with the vehicle. This is our 4th Chrysler and the only rap is with the gas mileage. I think the Chrysler engineers could have improved the mileage by changing the gear ratios as I have noticed the rpms are higher in the Pacifica than in my 96 and 01 sedans. Other than that, I think it's one of the sharpest SUV designs around.
A really nice car
Have owned lots of cars. My wife says this is the nicest car we have ever had. Traded in a Mountaineer because the ride was harsh, loud, and wobbly. This Pacifica feels glued down, it is so stable, and what a great ride, and so quiet. Lots of room, and a luxury feel to everything. So far, we are really happy with the car. Mileage on the highway is about 22-can't complain.
