NHTSA Complaint #10149412 — 2006 CHRYSLER PACIFICA

2006 CHRYSLER PACIFICA WITH 1650 MILES STALLED MAKING A LEFT TURN AT A VERY LOW SPEED. THERE WAS NO WARNING THE VEHICLE WAS ABOUT TO STALL. I HAD JUST COME OFF A MAJOR HIGHWAY WHERE I WAS TRAVELING APPROXIMATELY 50-60 MPH FOR ABOUT 10 MILES. I EXITED THE HIGHWAY AND SLOWED TO ABOUT 3 MPH, WHEN I LET OFF THE BRAKE TO MAKE A LEFT TURN, THE STEERING WHILE TIGHTENED UP AND MY DASH LIGHTS CAME ON. I PUT THE CAR IN NEUTRAL, IT STARTED RIGHT UP AND DID NOT STALL THE REMAINDER OF THE TRIP. IT WAS 60 DEGREES OUTSIDE AND SUNNY, AND I HAD MORE THAN 3/4 OF A TANK OF 89 OCTANE GAS. VEHICLE WAS MANUFACTURED 9/05. THIS IS THE SAME PROBLEM THAT MANY PEOPLE HAVE REPORTED WITH 2004 AND 2005 MODEL YEAR PACIFICAS. THIS IS AN EXTREMELY SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE THAT OBVIOUSLY CHRYSLER HASN'T RESOLVED. *NM
