The steering wheel pulls to the right or to the left while driving at highway speeds. Happens randomly ' never know when it will turn in either direction. When driving at 60-65 and passing a slower vehicle, it often requires firmly guiding the car against resistance back to the lane. Requires driving while grasping the steering wheel firmly to prevent the vehicle from veering from its path. Will also occur at lower speeds but not as often. Also, when driving on an expressway the steering, sometimes but not every time, becomes unstable if a truck passes it. In those instances, it veers to either the right or the left. The concern is that it could veer directly into the passing vehicle if the driver is less than alert and not firmly grasping the steering wheel. During a lifetime of driving, I have never before experienced a vehicle that felt as dangerous as this one. I took it to the dealer who proclaimed it in perfect running order. I filed a complaint with the Chrysler (case number 58533009) and was advised to take it back to the dealer and try to convince them to take it on a test drive. However, the dealer said they test drove it, which is doubtful since the mileage number did not change while it was in their hands. The dealer highlighted a comment on a report titled 08-electrical/be-electronic control modules/module, electric power steering (epsm)/description and operation that reads: Variable servo steering: When the speed of the vehicle is increased, the module reduces the amount of assistance to the column. Possibly Chrysler, in that statement is revealing that the steering mechanism is unsafe at highway speeds.

While my wife was sitting in the car with the car running in park the car began to go in reverse and it started to accelerate and brakes didnt work and car crashed into a fence and shed. Multiple witnesses confirmed her account as she had window down and was screaming with her hands in the air. Once car came to a stop it was confirmed that car was in park. Very scary.

The vehicle jerks (hesitates) while accelerating from a start to about 37 mph. Suspect gears 1-4. have been to dealership 7 times since I purchased the new vehicle. Have had valve body replaced, adaptations reset, even the radio was replaced already. Vehicle now has 1000 miles on it and still has issues. The dealership service has tried everything they can aside from replacing the transmission. The zf 9 transmission is the problem and Chrysler (fca) has refused to fix the problem as they continue to get many many complaints.

Could not start Chrysler Pacifica for one hour Friday morning. Finally starting, the engine shut down while moving at low speed approaching a light (at time thought it was the gas saving feature) and was very difficult to start. Drove it to dealer Monday, after a very difficult start for a fix yesterday. Dealer could not duplicate problem so I drove home, parked, and today it would not start. I had to have it towed back to dealer. Concerned engine could shut down at speed locking controls. As cause is unknown, I believe this is a safety issue for Chrysler and a heads-up to the NHTSA. The problem began with about 150 miles on the odometer and the van now has about 475 miles. Updated 11/30/18
