NHTSA Complaint #10706229 — 2006 CHRYSLER PACIFICA

TOOK MY 2006 CHRYSLER PACIFICA LIMITED WITH 34,945, (GARAGE KEPT, WELL MAINTAINED) TO MY CHRYSLER DEALER FOR A OIL CHANGE, WAS INFORMED THAT THE FRONT CROSS MEMBER IS ROTTING, WAS ADVISED TO CONTACT CHRYSLER, 1-800-992-1997 TO INFORM THEM REGARDING THE ROTTING. I DID CONTACT CHRYSLER SPOKE WITH A MICHAEL HE DID CHECK AND INFORMED ME THAT CHRYSLER WAS ONLY COVERING OUT OF WARRANTY FOR THE 2004-2005 CHRYSLER PACIFICA'S FOR THE SAME PROBLEM. I MAINTAIN THAT CHRYSLER IS RESPONSIBLE AS WELL TO REPAIR MY 2006 UNDER RECALL AS WELL, BOTH CHRYSLER AND NHTSA ARE FULLY AWARE THAT THIS PROBLEM EXISTS. I DO UNDERSTAND THAT NHTSA HAS MANY COMPLAINTS FROM 2006 CHRYSLER PACIFICA OWNERS FOR THE SAME ISSUE BUT NOTHING IS BEING DONE BY NHTSA, WHY IS THIS, IS IT BECAUSE NO DEATHS HAVE RESULTED? THIS MAKES MY WIFE AND I FEEL THAT IT IS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE, NO NEED AT THE PRESENT TIME TO HAVE THE FRONT CROSS MEMBER REPLACED AND WE CAN CONTINUE TO DRIVE OUR 2006 CHRYSLER PACIFICA. *TR
