Great wagon
Got this about a week ago. Drove it about 1000 miles in the last week. Comfortable and quiet. Nav system a dream for my wife who can't read a map. Problem with tire pressure system errors. Dealer to look at tomorrow. Otherwise no problems.
After first year only so-so
After the first year, I am not so satisfied. Came with defective ball joints (brake = thunk!), and a rattle that the dealer had to jimmy-rig to fix. Does drive OK, but feels sluggish. Suppose it handles like any other SUV. Blind spots are annoying. Paint on the plastic parts is really of low quality and tiny dings cause missing paint that peels more and more. Horrible gas mileage for a V6 (12-14 MPG in city). No space for any cargo with 3rd seat up. Very disappointing, will probably sell before warranty is up.

2006 Pacific Experience
I very much enjoyed this vehicle. Comfort, Style, Reliability, Performance, Road handling have exceeded my expectations from an American made auto product. However, I have just exceeded 36,000 miles and seem to be burning oil. I know this was/is a problem for the 2004 and 2005 model years. Wondering if any other 2006 PAC owners have same experience with burning oil between changes?
Love My Pacifica....However!
This is 2019 and I bought my 06 Chrysler Pacifica used about 4 years ago with somewhere around 126,000 miles on it. My mom bought her 07 Pacifica about 6 months before me. I liked it because it had a 3rd row and I could fit all 4 kids in it with no problem. I love the space it offers when folding down the seats. I've hauled just about everything in it. I like the interior, the comfort, style and look of it. I have the DVD system which came in handy for trips. Stereo and CD player are great too. However, shortly after my mom purchased hers, (at only 90 some thousand miles), her tranny went out and had to have it replaced. Shortly after that, my tranny went out, (about 130,000 miles), and had to be replaced along with a motor mount. My Pacifica is now at about 157,000 miles and I've had to replace 3 new motor mounts, struts, tires, and some other things as well. Must be a Pacifica thing with the transmission. I was told the transmission can't keep up with the motor. I have regular maintenance (oil changes, fluids checked, changed, and topped off) every 5,000 miles. Other than that, I love my crossover and can't beat the price.

POOR WORKMANSHIP AT IT'S BEST
I am about to trade my '06 Pacifica in. Since I bought it: left front axle broke as I was leaving a parking space, emissions leak x 2, ABS malfunctions, lose power steering after driving in the rain, car shuts off immediately after sharp left turns, replaced struts. Now: front and rear motor bearings must be replaced, entire oil pan needs to be replaced, belt tensioner needs to be replaced, AND THIS DOESNT COVER THE OTHER EXHISTING PROBLEMS. I am a single mom of two. I do not drive like a lunatic and I use it to run local errands; take me and the kids to and from school and work. This car has cost me so much money it makes me want to cry.
