2004 Chrysler Pacifica Top Model 2 wheel drive review from North America
"Nice to ride in, but expensive to own."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Rear Brake Rotors replaced at 8000 km.
Electronic Dashboard replaced at 15000 km.
Motor Mounts replaced at 25000 km.
Leaking A/C into passenger compartment repaired at 10000 km.
Leaking Sunroof repaired at 15000 km.
General comments?
This is truly a luxury SUV type vehicle that drives like a luxury car. However, although it handles well for its size the performance is adequate, but not inspiring.
The gas mileage is terrible. Possibly because the motor is underpowered for this size of a vehicle.
Reliability is a bit of a concern. I have had what would have amountedto be almost $4000.00 in repairs if not for the warranty. I have leased it and don't think I will be keeping it after the lease and warranty run out.
Rear Visibility is poor. New Parking Sensor option available in 2005 a must.
Navigation system has limited coverage in Canada. Not worth the money.
