NHTSA Complaint #10662017 — 2005 CHRYSLER PACIFICA

ADD THIS TO THE EVER-GROWING STACK OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE ENGINE CRADLE RUSTING OUT ON PACIFICAS WHICH FALL OUTSIDE THE DATES CHRYSLER SPECIFIED IN THEIR SERVICE BULLETIN. CLEARLY THOSE DATES WERE DATES OF ASSEMBLY, NOT OF FRAME MANUFACTURE, BECAUSE MANY PACIFICAS CONTINUED TO HAVE IMPROPERLY RUSTPROOFED FRAMES PUT IN WELL AFTER THE DATES CHRYSLER IDENTIFIED AS PROBLEMATIC. THIS IS AN ISSUE THEY KNEW ABOUT AND TRIED TO HIDE, AND WHEN THEY WERE DISCOVERED THEY TRIED TO DOWNPLAY THE EXTENT OF THE PROBLEM. THAT IS CRIMINAL, AS THIS ISSUE IS POTENTIALLY EXTREMELY DANGEROUS! PLEASE DO SOMETHING TO FORCE THEM TO ADDRESS THIS FAULT BEFORE SOMEONE DIES! TIME IS RUNNING OUT, AS THESE VEHICLES ARE OLD ENOUGH NOW TO WHERE MANY OF THEM ARE GOING TO START BREAKING BECAUSE THEIR OWNERS ARE COMPLETELY IN THE DARK. PROTECTING THE PUBLIC IS YOUR JOB, AND THIS IS A HUGE, AND DANGEROUS ISSUE! HELP US, PLEASE!! *JS
