Pacifica problems ?

We are considering the Pacifica, but are sort of hesitant in
getting a first year model. Any comments on major/minor problems
with this car ?
Thanks

I just ordered one. Here are a few websites where you can find alot
of good info on them.

Good Luck

 

We bought our Pacifica AWD on August 29 and it now has 4,600 miles on it.
Overall we are very pleased and happy with this vehicle but, as you have asked
for major/minor comments about it, here is my input:

Major - 1) Mileage is not as good as I think it should be. Other posters have
made this same comment. 2) Rear visibility could be better - it is difficult to
see when backing up. Other posters have made this same comment.

Minor - 1) The drivers floormat has to be replaced as the grommet (plastic) has
pulled out. 2) The passenger seatback motor overloads and stops so a circuit or
something else has to be replaced. 3) Parking break release is placed poorly so
one must really reach far to release the brake.

Would these problems stop me from buying one if I were reconsidering ? NO! This
is the fourth Chrysler we have purchased new. The quality is superior to the
others (which was not that bad) and I recommend this vehicle very highly.

That should be "Parking brake"!
