| Tl* the contact owns a 2006 chrysler pacifica. the contact stated the abs light illuminated on the instrument panel and the brakes began to make a grinding noise. the brake failure almost caused a crash to occur. the contact took the vehicle to the dealer and was told the catalytic converter needed to be replaced; however, the check engine light didn't illuminate until after it was replaced. the vehicle was taken to the dealer a second time because the brakes were grinding and was told that the transmission was failing and needed to be replaced. the abs light continued to remain illuminated on the instrument panel; however, the dealer did not duplicate or diagnose the failures. the vin was not available. the failure mileage was unknown. the current mileage was 96,000. | |||

| This is an extremely serious matter that they need to address by chrysler and the nhtsa immediately. they need recall all of these vehicles before me or my family members or some innocent people are killed due to this defective braking issue. my initial date that this started happening was about a year ago. although as of the end of 2011 the brake failure began to happen more frequently. i have a 2006 chrysler pacifica which has about 100,000 miles on the vehicle. the abs light comes on and goes off all the time. sometimes it stays on for long periods of time as well and does not reset even after turning the car off. i loose breaking power when this happens as it feels like the brakes are shaking, grabbing, slipping and grinding. it now takes greater distance to stop my vehicle. the feeling is very much life threatening to me and my family as if we are being dragged to our death. it is not a safe feeling, i have to drive my children to and from their activities and school. a complete brake failure happened today 5/20/12 while i was driving with my kids and i almost had a head on collision. i am afraid to drive this vehicle. i do not know if it will actually stop when i apply the brake. i have been researching the problem and have found dozens of others that are having the same problem with their abs light. many are having speed sensors replaced without fixing the problem others are being told that they need brakes and other electronic components. chrysler is ignoring the problem and that brakes failure is a serious problem. god please, i do not want to end up having another accident with them in the car as it happened today one today. it really concerns me that there has not been a recall on this vehicle yet. i am pleading to please, please, please, take this problem seriously and to save lives of these many owners and families of the 2006 pacifica. | |||
