NHTSA Complaint #10482826 — 2007 CHRYSLER PACIFICA

WE PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE USED, AND FROM DAY ONE WE NOTICED THE TRANSMISSION BANGED INTO GEAR. AFTER NUMEROUS TRIPS TO THE DEALER AND THEM UNABLE TO FIND THE PROBLEM, I ASKED THEM TO CHECK THE MOTOR MOUNTS. THEY DISCOVERED A BROKEN MOUNT, THE REPAIR COST ME $440, THIS OCCURRED AT 46151 MI. NOW AT APPROX 74000 MI 2 MORE ENGINE MOUNTS HAVE FAILED THE BILL THIS TIME WILL BE $723. WE DO NOT DRIVE AGGRESSIVELY OR ABUSE THIS VEHICLE, AFTER AN ONLINE SEARCH THIS SEEMS TO BE A DEFECT IN THE CHRYSLER PACIFICA LINE OF CARS. WITH THE ENGINE SHIFTING IN THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT IT WILL BE ONLY A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE A FUEL LINE, BRAKE LINE OR OTHER VITAL LINE OR HOSE WILL BE COMPROMISED CAUSING A FIRE OR LOSS OF VEHICLE CONTROL. I FEEL A RECALL SHOULD BE ISSUED AND THE DEFECTIVE PART REPLACED AND THOSE WHO ALREADY REPLACED THE DEFECTIVE PART REIMBURSED.
