| The headlights (low beam only) just stopped working. no warning at all. checked bulbs and they are fine. i am not getting power to the low beam lights. the high beams work fine along with the signals, horn, flashers, etc.. i know chrysler has a recall on the 2005 models, and can't understand why the 2006 are not included!! it's the same problem. | |||

| Drivers side headlamp worked intermittantly and then lost power. there is no power leading to the low beam headlamp assy. 2005 models had a recall for this exact problem, but chrysler tells me that my 2006 shows no recalls per my vin. this is very dangerous that my headlights can fail while driving and cause a crash. also replacing bulbs will not help this situation because the problem is in the integrated power module (fuse box). so you cannot even drive your car home if this problem happens to you on the road. very dangerous and a horrible design by chrysler. | |||

| Tl*the contact owns a 2006 chrysler pacifica. the contact stated that the vehicle would not accelerate properly while driving 60 mph. she took the vehicle to the dealer and they replaced the sensors. the contact also noticed that the vehicle was using excessive fuel at low mileages and she smelled a strong odor of gasoline coming from the vehicle. she took the vehicle back to the dealer and they stated that the wires in the electrical system were damaged. the repair would cost $3,000; however, the dealer could not diagnose the failure pertaining to the fuel system. the vehicle has not been repaired. weeks later, the driver side head lamp failed, reducing all visibility. several months later, the vehicle would vibrate abnormally and was taken back to the dealer. the technician replaced another sensor. days later, the contact noticed that the accelerator pedal would become stuck in a fixated position, but the dealer could not duplicate the failure. lastly, while driving approximately 5 mph, the vehicle stalled without any warning. she took the vehicle to the dealer, but they could not diagnose the failure. she is in the process of notifying the manufacturer. the failure mileage was 200 and current mileage was 32,000. | |||

| Incident #1: 3 days after purchasing the vehicle, i noticed there was something wrong with my brakes. i took it in and was told that my rotors needed to be replaced (the vehicle had 30 miles on it when i bought it). i was told all the rotors were warped. incident #2: approximately 4 weeks after purchasing, my left headlight went out. not a major problem, but still an inconvenience...especially when car is brand new. incident #3: i was making a right hand turn out of the parking lot when vehicle stalled on me. my steering wheel locked up and i glided across 2 lanes of the road (amazingly without hurting myself or others). no warning at all. vehicle started back up just find...but very scary. took it into the service and was told that my computer needed to be flashed incident #4: abs light came on out of nowhere and i felt a fluttering of the brake pedal when pressing the brake. i was told the sensors needed to be replaced and they were. incident #5: received my vehicle back from repair on incident #4 on tuesday, vehicle is back in the shop today (2 days later). fluttering from the brake pedal again. unsure what the outcome is...still in service. fortunately, none of these incidents have caused me, my family, or others any injury or harm but each of these incidents (besides the headlight) could have resulted in serious injuries or resulted in deaths. *nm | |||
