2024 CHRYSLER PACIFICA — Problems, Recalls & Safety Data

As prior reported I am the owner of a 2024 Chrysler Pacifica that has a known safety defect in the rear sliding doors that is impossible to disable. This issue also cases parasitic draw strain on the battery that can completely disable the vehicle. The affected system can not be isolated and triggers even without the vehicle in use even effecting the way that the engine runs when in use due to voltage issues that the door issue causes with the battery system in the vehicle. This is not an isolated issue Enterprise Rent a Car in Rome, New York also stated to me that they had the same issue with a Pacifica that they use for rentals when I mentioned why mine was in the show this was on 2/2/2026 at 4:00pm. Something should be done to fix this issue or at the very least they should have a way to completely turn off the effected system. Nye Dodge in Oneida, New York is doing the repair on my vehicle and can be reached at 315-277-8955 for more information about the cause, and the fix for this issue. I want to reiterate that this is not a one off issue it is a known issue with the Chrysler Pacifica series that should be investigated.

The headliner AC vent cover fell out while driving striking my minor daughter. We were driving a rental so we did not attempt to correct the issue, leaving the vent cover in the front, but we have found several other incidents reported online of the same issue. We did not take it in for inspection nor were any warning lamps on.

Rear sliding doors have an electrical issue that can cause a warning that the door is open to be displayed on the drivers information screen while the vehicle is in gear, and being driven. After a moment you will hear a relay click, the error message goes away, and after a while the error message shows up again this repeats in cycles. Attempts to disable the sliding door system for safety removing fuses do not work the system will continue to indicate that the door is open even when it has been closed manually. I just had the vehicle serviced at Nye Dodge in Oneida, New York so they have better information on what caused the issue, and the fix they can be reached at (315) 277-8955 for information on the issue. The issue I would like to bring to light is that in the event of a defect it is impossible to fully disable the sliding door, and it's sensors I have attempted to pull fuses to shut the system down, and can't find anyway to totally isolate the effected door for safety. I have been reassured the door will not open however I will not be using this vehicle to transport my children until this issue is corrected. You should be able to turn the system off in the event of a failure with one of the sliding doors.
