Consumer Description

THE PACIFICA BECAME NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE TO STEER. THE ENGINE CRADLE HAS FAILED DUE TO PREMATURE CORROSION OR MATERIAL FAILURE. DUE TO THIS FAILURE, THE BOLTS AND BUSHINGS HOLDING THE REAR OF THE ENGINE CRADLE HAVE FALLEN THRU AND THE REAR OF THE ENGINE CRADLE IS INCHES FROM THE GROUND CAUSING THE ENGINE TO NO LONGER BE SUPPORTED. THIS MAKES THE CAR IMPOSSIBLE TO STEER BECAUSE THE DRIVELINE ANGLE IS CHANGED. ENGINE RESTING ON THE RACK AND PINION DAMAGES THIS DEVICE ALSO. VEHICLE IS NOT DRIVE ABLE. COST ESTIMATE FROM LOCAL CHRYSLER DEALER IS OVER 4000$
