NHTSA Complaint #11092400 — 2017 CHRYSLER PACIFICA

THE VEHICLE STALLS WHILE IN MOTION AND WHILE SHIFTING FROM FIRST TO THE SECOND GEAR OR FROM SECOND TO THIRD GEAR. AFTER IT STALLS FOR A COUPLE OF SECONDS THE VEHICLE JUMPS. IT IS NOT SOMETHING CONSTANT THAT WILL OCCUR, ONLY SOMETIMES AND THE DEALER CANNOT REPRODUCE THE OCCURRENCE AND THEY CANNOT TAKE ANY ACTION TO FIX IT (AT LEAST THIS IS THEIR RESPONSE). THE COMPUTER IS NOT RECORDING ANY MALFUNCTION. WHEN THIS OCCURS BUT YOU CANNOT ACCELERATE OR DECELERATE, OR DO ANYTHING TO AVOID ANY POTENTIAL ACCIDENT. I SUBMITTED THE VEHICLE TO TWO CHRYSLER DEALERS FOR A CHECK AND BECAUSE THEY COULDN'T REPRODUCE THE INCIDENT THEY TOLD ME TO WAIT UNTIL SUCH ISSUE OCCURS MORE CONSTANT. THIS IS A VERY DISTURBING APPROACH BECAUSE IT HAPPENS WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION AND CAN PROVOKE AN ACCIDENT. I HAVE 4 CHILDREN AND I USE THE VAN TO DRIVE MY FAMILY AND THIS IS A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY ISSUE THAT SHOULD BE CONSIDERED MORE SERIOUSLY. *TT UPDATED 8/30/18*JB
