2017 Chrysler Pacifica

noise

front end rattles like crazy and they say that is the beast.

I bought 3 years old vehicle, this vehicle have paint bubbling issue on the hood, check engine light issue due to electrical issues & wiper squeaking issue.

I had some issues with my Town & Country, for one it was noisy.

It transmits a lot of the road noise to the interior of the car.

Way too much road noise and cheap tires for a very expensive vehicle.

windshield

Wipers and horn would sound repeatedly even after the battery was disconnected.

Wiper fluid hoses were missing when we bought it.

Inner side of windshield very hard to clean the film that forms on it.

If you sit in the front all the sound comes from the corner of the dashboard near the windshield.

sensor

The engine hesitate at 28 mph , park sensor went  out ,abs module went out , traction went out .

Auto start/stop works only 50% of the time as does the blind spot sensor system.

Also, steering wheel sensor told me to put my hands on steering wheel while driving speed limit on interstate and not distracted!

transmission

Warranty-paint peeling on the hood, side doors opening/closing malfunctions, battery replacements for the main battery and auxiliary battery related to the start stop system, hard shifts in transmission, radio/audio issues.

The trans started hard shifting from first to second or second to third at around 187k miles.

Hate that this van has a hard shift problem.

My only complaint is that the 9-speed transmission has two flaws.

The most significant has been the continuing transmission problems that have plagued this vehicle from very early on after the purchase.

The electronics allow you to watch temperatures on the engine cooling, oil temperature, and transmission fluid temperature.

The center console does not have much enclosed storage and things tend to shift around.

After purchasing, this horrible Chrysler product needed the clunky transmission module replaced, the rollers on both sliding doors replaced.

I thought the KNOB gear shift would be a challenge

battery

The start stop battery and main battery would have been over $400 to fix out of warranty and there is no guarantee it won’t happen every two years.

acceleration

I love the seating for 8, you can put the 2nd row and 3rd row seats down to use it as a utility vehicle, the engine has plenty of power and you can accelerate fast, it handles great, and it's a comfortable family car.

My wife liked the style better than Honda, Toyota or Hyundai and it had more power, better acceleration it was still easy to drive.

The 9-speed transmission shifts very smoothly and provides great acceleration.

It accelerates erratically , breaking is a big issue.

The van has a very comfortable ride and excellent acceleration when it is needed.

Coming from a Honda odyssey to the Pacifica, this van is so much nicer in the way it rides and the comfort of the seats.

All the little luxurious comforts you need or want in a mini van and for a comparably reasonable price.

I was in the market for a van, and this is by far the best one that I’ve test driven.

Doesn't even feel like I'm driving a van lol..

We even travelled to New York with 4 adults and a toddler and it was a fantastic vacation made possible because of this van.

family

It is comfortable and there is plenty of room for luggage.

I have six grandchildren, so now I can take them all at one time.

Meets our family needs for transportation
Very pleased with the many family friendly options on my Pacifica Limited
Glad we purchased this vehicle will recommend to others

Comfort and safety for you and your family members.

I would be more apt to recommend it if they were little issues that didn't put me and my family in danger,

Great ride and a lot of room for the kids and family.

I purchased this vehicle to travel with my 5 dogs.

Transports my family of five plus all the stuff with space to spare.

This car is perfect for our large family.

comfortable

Looking forward to many years of reliability and comfort.

It’s comfortable, roomy and has a really high tech design on the dashboard.

From comfort, to driving experience, to the sound system, this one stands out.

feature

My husband convinced me to test drive another Chrysler because they look amazing, and the features are top amazing for the price tag and blow Toyota and Honda out of the water.

Love the features and all of the automated breaking system.

It has many safety and convenience features,  which I greatly appreciate.

The features and smart key are a nice touch.

It is keyless and very modern with all kinds of wonderful helpful features.

2019 Kia Sorento

brake

Worst brake poor mechanical less efficient.

Hardly any noticeable wear on the brakes or the suspension system.

So at 7000 miles i started having break rubbing like i needed be breaks so i took it to the dealer to have it looked at and the guy said it was dirt  now i have  squealing  When i stop.

I like the ability of having a 3rd seat when needed
 The adaptive cruise control takes a little getting used to, especially when someone changes lanes and cuts you off short, and your car brakes suddenly

Good acceleration,  handles well
  Smooth braking.

I have not encountered a bump that interrupts the ride and the acceleration is good when you punch it.

Acceleration power is there when I need it with the sport or smart drive modes.

A lot of power accelerating up the mountain roads to pass, very comfortable interior.

Good gas mileage given that the vehicle accelerates up to speed quickly (power!).

I needed extra space for my growing family and this car is great, without being the full on minivan.

The KIA Sorento was the perfect SUV for us
Both
It had the room of a van that I wanted and the looks of an SUV that he liked.

great driving vehicle great fuel mileage comfortable and handles great in town as well as highway driving

This car has everything I wanted, literally: all the comfort and features I wanted: plenty leg room, heated seats, heated wheel, navigation, satellite radio, Bluetooth,

I am able the carry all of my grandchildren in comfort.

Lots of room, comfortable, responsive dependable & a pleasure to drive, 
Easy to use information system,

It’s comfortable, drives smooth, and i love that it beeps when backing up to let you know something is behind you.

The ride is superb, the radio is awesome, and the comfort is something new for me which I’ve never before experienced.

The ride is comfortable and smooth, with the common *thwap* over expansion joints and frost heaves being present

Smooth comfortable ride and very powerful for a 4 cylinder.

Long list of "Standard" features as well.

We needed a nice family vehicle.The 2019 Kia Sorento is perfect for us.Plenty of power,smooth ride.Lots of room.We are extremely happy with it.It also has very nice features.

I enjoy driving this car ,also love its features ,especially when we had snow I didn't have any problem driving to work and back, also the life time service was the best I ever had

However I feel the new 2021 version is a cool new looking automobile because of its mini Telluride look and many new great updated standard features.

Interior is really sharp and safety and convenience features are great.

The trim level (SX) provides substantial amenities that are very well laid out and well explained in the Owners Manual.

The Telluride has all the same features, and many more, for that price.

We hardly ever use the third row so it's mainly a family hauler of stuff.

A perfect choice for both family use & utility.

Love that it provides ability to seat 7 or transport larger items and space for grandkids and pets together for outings

The car has been great so far several driving modes and it accommodates my family well.

It leaves plenty of room for our dog to lay,stand,turn around even with luggage and a stroller in the back with him.

Third row seats come in handy when transporting kids or other family members around town.

This is a Reliable family vehicle made for Cool Parents..The third row option is a dream..It’s perfect for the family on the go..I’m so glad we made this choice..

2017 Kia Sedona

It has been better in acceleration than my previous two minivans.

It handles well and the acceleration is great.

The V6 doesn't hesitate when accelerating to freeway speeds and the gas mileage is north of 20 mpg so my credit card is happy too!

From the styling and comfort to the performance and handling this is by far the best minivan we have owned.

We never had any issues with our previous van and haven't had any with this one either.

I love this van for size and it is very comfortable to ride in

We love our 2017 Kia Sedona SX-L minivan.

Styling: This is the best part of this van.

Very roomy, meets with what I have wanted in a van.

My initial impression of the van was good,

It doesn?t feel like a van even though the inside is big a spacious it rides smooth and honestly glad I don?t feel like im driving a big van I probably would have went with a SUV

great van good price is are second car from Pete's car mart good people working there go check the out it  we found a bad tire on van after we got it

The bucket seats are extremely comfortable.

This car mets all ours needs , very comfortable, and drive very well, a lot of space and storage , my wife and girls are very happy with the purchase

The car meet all my need, i love this car, very comfortable.

Reliable, comfortable, and plenty of room all over.

but didnt sacrifice comfort over more expensive  options I test drove.

Fun to drive; easy-to-clean seats; driver seat is incredibly comfortable.

Very comfortable seating and so many places to put things.

Comfort: It seems to be pretty comfortable for everyday commuting.

but several items already stand out:
Removable middle seat in the 2nd row - the removable middle seat to effectively create a captain chair scenario while at the same time having the option to put the seat back in provides great versatility.

My 1st Sedona was very reliable and perfect for budget friendly option.

The standard features on our SX-L van are incredible and the ride and handling are top notch.

This vehicle has a lot of options, the confort and the easy way to drive.

It did have a good price point and nice features like leather seats, bluetooth, back camera, etc.

The features are amazing and the seats are so comfy!

The air conditioning is the coldest I've ever seen in a vehicle, another perk for us.

Nice Tech features and Slick exterior for a minivan.

They have several options in trim packages so you are sure to find the options you are looking for.

room

There seems to be more space and I like the middle console.

The Sedona is a great vehicle for us as we plan to be snowbirds and it has room to take everything we need.

I can fit my family of 5, groceries, all of our baseball equipment and still have plenty of room.

My husband and I are very tall people so the space is a huge plus for us.

The interior is quite spacious, with room for up to 7-8 passengers, as it has a third row of seats.

2018 Volkswagen Atlas

Performance wise not a winner, sluggish and noisy when pushed,

At this point I’ve had roughly $4,300 billed to the warranty in one year (I also had various squeaks and rattles fixed too), and because of covid, I only put about 15k miles on the car in that year.

Trying to start the engine the only noise was a clicking noise.

Right off the hop this thing has been to the dealership for problems..front end rattles,leaking oil and antifreeze,,engine stalling, exhaust cat sensor and cat needed replaced, auto start/ stop issues.

The road noise is high too need softer ride

Has a knocking noise in the back end some where

12 months in  I had a coolant leak - no repairs or findings on this  & was told this is 'normal' for the vehicle (head shake, not normal) - sensors keep going off.

Have already had it in to replace the front strut boots that were rubbing and making noises while driving.

lights

From September 19 to November 24 my 2018 has been in service 4 times all for the same issues, Car just quits when I’m going 60 mph down the road or at a red light.

Every time I bring my vehicle in for an issue, whether it be the check engine light, the battery died, the transmission light, there are more recalls.

Then less than a week later the same check engine light.

Headlights look like they were trying to match the grille - and failed.

I just traded back my Toyota Rav and the check engine light never came on in 3 years of ownership.

Remote would work so I went out and started, running on 3 cylinders EPC light on engine light on, low coolant light on.

I have been waiting 4 months for a new fitting to turn off my engine light  I am now told that it needs a new battery after only 19 months continual problems   I would not recommend the car

service

The acceleration isn't bad on the V6 model I think after a couple of software updates they did during service.

My car is currently in service as my AC is not working.

Already took it 3 times to service and they say the same thing: we can't duplicate it.

but my guess that is just poor VW service in my location.

Called vw customer service to complain as my county requires emissions testing.

So far no repair issues so I haven't dealt with Volkswagen service,

Sadly its already getting serviced due to sensor malfunction, wont be getting it back for a week.

but the service departments are not prepared to address issues with this vehicle.

VW Atlas 2018 ,SEL
Drove to shopping center, after shopping started the engine the warning an my dashboard lite up with the Information that the battery was low.

Batter problems, transmission errors, faulty start/stop, broken air conditioner and list goes on and on.

New battery, new infotainment system and new catalytic converter and still having issues.

battery went bad, seat belt buckle light/chime wouldn’t go off even with belts buckled, window wash fluid holder leaked blue stuff all over our drive way, the rear passenger door wasn’t tight enough and we could hear air coming in while driving.

Repairs:  I have had the battery replaced, (warranty).

16 months in the car stalled while in motion, dead battery.

About 7 months in though, the issues started. First, we had an issue with the battery where it completely died on us after idling for (maybe??)

failure

), engine cut-outs while driving, coolant loss for the first 30,000 miles, unable to pump gas into the car due to emission system failures.

They said it's a manufacture defect that doesn't affect the mechanics of the vehicle so it will not be recalled.

We had the same problem with the AC last year, our first summer with it and I asked the guy this time what was wrong with my AC last year as I couldn't recall.

Then on driving it home, the engine malfunction indicator light came on.

The only glitch occurred when the Auto Stop failed.

Dashboard and alarming sound occur "Brake booster faulty" is displayed.

Acceleration is great, the adaptive cruise and other safety features are not as intrusive as others have indicated, at least in my experience.

Beyond the peppy acceleration of the turbo and active safety features, I got a great looking, super roomy, comfy SUV.

When accelerating it picks up quickly and the turbo kicks in at a nice point.

Acceleration,  with a 3.6 V6 engine, does not perform as powerfull as expected.

but smooth and the engine, once the bright spot of the vehicle, stumbles and accelerates poorly.

The V6 engine with the 8-speed automatic provides good acceleration (not a sports car)

It drives so well so quietly with good torque from a standstill and good enough acceleration for a family cruiser, great visibility and corners beautifully.

Replaced our minivan which had so much room and versatility and being our first SUV we are very happy with the purchase

But this is also true of an Econoline delivery van.

Roomy like a mini van versatility of an SUV.

The styling that looks more like a traditional SUV versus the ?van?

It is much better looking than any minivan.

A suv with the interior room of a mini van.

If you are looking for minivan room, awesome warranty, comfortable seats, technology, and a safe vehicle all around, this is the one.

With our minivan on its last legs, we were in the market for a new vehicle that could seat 7 (3 young boys and frequently shuttling their friends) and it looked like the Atlas fit the bill as we loved the styling and had a previous good experience with VW.

I have been fighting the "soccer mom van" for 5 years.

2018 Atlas 3.6 V6 SEL 4-Motion with Tech package, owned from new since Jan 2019 - Great looking EuroMerican SUV with plenty of interior space and features.

Design quality, features, long distance ride and SPACE for 7 adult passengers and luggage is outstanding.

If you need space like we do, this is the car for you!!

We managed to fit a 4 x 6 wooden gate into back of the car with room to spare.

It’s roomy side to side as well as providing me with plenty of leg and head room.

I loved how much space there was in the interior, though.

Moreover, the interior space for a driver and six passengers (total of seven) is unbelievable.

Very comfortable to drive, handles well for an SUV and so many features, it's dazzling.

Great long distance vehicle for comfort, performance (even though not a rocket,

Although I haven't had to use the 3d seat I am confident it is roomy and comfortable.

My 6ft talk husband can sit back there and be comfortable. Plus!

This car is most definitely a dream car for me is comfortable it has all the good features I love I'm very happy for my choice

Love my Atlas, 2018, no issue, running strong, reliables, confortable, roomy and great towing capability, awesome ride, at the end of 2021 will probably trade this one for a new one👍🏼

With two young boys, I like the fact that this car is comfortable yet not SO fancy that I care when my boys are rough with it.

This thing is comfortable, spacious and looks great.
