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.

minivan

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

The Pacifica is the best minivan on the road today and has been for three years.

Bought the minivan new in 2018 and drove from NY to FL and back without a problem.

This is our first minivan for our new family of four and it is perfect for us.

This minivan has exceeded my expectations for a vehicle such as this.

It's definitely not your typical mini-van!

The Pacifica Minivan is pretty and you have to  love the stow-away seats.

I was hesitant to drive a minivan with the stereotype of it being a 'loser cruiser' HA!

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.

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.

This car is perfect for our large family.

comfortable

Looking forward to many years of reliability and comfort.

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.

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.

room

I love the fact it has so much space, stow away seats, and drives so smoothly.

I can change the configuration of cargo space and seating in seconds and on the go.

Has plenty of room for my family and its stylish.

There's a lot of room for all of our activities.

It has plenty of room and is a beautiful design.

2018 Chrysler Pacifica

Lots of road noise and window track does not last long and breaks.

The moment I drove off the lot with my 2018 Chrysler Pacifica - I didnt relies the ticking, knocking or flutter noise in my engine until I turned down my volume!

Very rough ride, can feel  every little bump, road noise,  no CD player unless you buy the 2000 DVD package.

Quite ride with the noise canceling windshield.

lights

2006 Rear ended while stopped at a red light.

7 months after buying a brand new Pacifica I noticed a clicking coming from the front driver side, passenger sliding door needed to be manually operated and the check engine light was on.

.and now 1700 miles 1 month later the traction control light is on and the TVS  for the kids do not work!

The auto off/on on the engine make stopping and starting at a red light a bit of a problem by causing hesitation when the light turns green again.

engine

The mpg dropped 15 mpg because of the tremendous drag on the engine.

Only problem after two months the engine start/stop gas saving feature stopped working.

Chassis, engine, transmission weight down at car height equals low center of gravity, handles like a luxury car.

The only complaint is the fuel saving engine stop system that stops the engine when you come to a stop, then restarts it when you take your foot off the brakes.

After only one year of owning my mini-van the engine has starting to give us problems.

I am hoping this increases as the engine ?breaks in.?

failure

My other main complaint other than the touch screen malfunctions is the glare of the windshield.

As other touchscreen functionality related to the UConnect entertainment system started to also malfunction I called the dealer to make a service appointment.

Manual capability for the 3rd row seats should the electric mode fail..
3.

brake

Drives nice once routers and brakes replaced, electrical messing up, keeps loosing blue tooth phone connection, start system warning light comes on intermittently.

but did fix other issues such as back up camera coming on and dial gear shift jumping into R while driving on the highway, brakes, and radio with grounding the battery.

If your not to prissy to own a minivan this is it!

We always own a minivan, we think they are great for families, the new Paficia is very nice the only thing we dislike is the auto start/stop feature

We have always been pleased with the sustainability  and style of the minivan  from Chrysler.

Love mini vans, like that they are easy to get in and out of car and can hold 7 people comfortably.

Still this mini-van has decent mileage in the city (~20mpg) and my highway mileage is on par with my families 2014 Corolla (30mpg+).

It also handles and performs extremely well for a Minivan.

It has a lot of family friendly features that I 100% appreciate.

Lots of safety features that was a big reason for the purchase.

This vehicle is a perfect match for my granddaughter and her husband expecting our 3rd great granddaughter.. 3 car seats were not option in the terrain.

Our kids love the extra touch features and say it's more roomy.

Has tons of options on the car that I never even knew existed.

We chose the Ocean Blue Touring L.   It is just a beautiful looking van with lots of  technology perks.

The Pacific has Navi, remote start and awesome Stow and Go feature for us campers.

Love the limited trim as it was chock-full of added saftey features that i never realized i was missing before.

a nice upgrade from when I was a kid and it was a manual slider only on one side!

This vehicle meets are family needs  for seating , for storage, ease of access, comfort, and versatility.

GREAT FOR ROAD TRIPS, KIDS SPORTS ACTIVITIES AND THAT OCCASIONAL STOP AT HOME DEPOT FOR LARGE OBJECTS!

Roomy enough to hold 4 carseats for our grandchildren with easy excise for moving in between 2nd and 3rd rows.

Today my wife and I are much older now and our grandchildren are very important to us.

I was looking for a SUV, test drove the van because I thought it would be easier for my dog to get into and loved it!

This vehicle has all the comfort we were looking for.

I've had this Pacifica Limited for two years now and love it's practicality, comfort, performance, and reliability.

This vehicle will certainly serve its purpose in comfort, ease of access, and in safety.

The comfort and handling have been great and we enjoy all of the features.

I purchased the car in 2018, good car, reliable so far, meets all of my needs, great leg room, great visibility, great comfort, I like the automatic doors, the ease of putting the back seats down giving more room if needed.

We have the back row stowed to give us lots of cargo room for the stroller, diaper bag, scooter, karate bag, etc etc etc.

Plenty of room inside for anything you want to do.

YOU WILL LOVE THE ADDED ROOM BEHIND THE THIRD ROW!

Fantastic Family Car where you have space for all.

The Pacifica runs great drives beautifully and has tons of room for our four kids.

We bought it for space, comfort, and ease in dealing with the seats.

2022 Kia Carnival

Check engine light came out 2 times after I bought with in  2-3 months, it’s brand new van and it’s vibrating when press in gas what is unacceptable please don’t buy any kia I believe.

2) lack of low end torque 3) check engine light came on twice in cold weather (-18c) .

Interior lights found on after parked for a while, 3 times, may be a fob click thing.

awesome prices for a luxury minivan compared with other minivan in 2022

The car is a great alt to a regular minivan if you aren’t ready to cross the minivan road yet.

I highly recommend this vehicle to everyone that is looking to purchase a minivan.

but my wife prefers a minivan, so this is a great compromise!

Overall my wife is very pleased, and I enjoy driving it as well. She refuses to call it a "mini van" and refers to it as a "sports van"

Chrysler minivans kind of set the bar for luxury, style, and bang-for-your-buck features.

I went with this model because it doesn’t look like the other boring minivans in it’s class.

The good news for you is after reading this review there is really only 3 minivans to consider and none of them are Kia.

Like it's look, rich in tech and features (bought the top trim),

The middle row reclining seats are a cool feature

Other really cool new features are that both the skylight windows open in the front and the back.

With that being said, all the features are great!

Overall a great vehicle, many great features

Great features on the EX trim, stunning looks, and smooth drive.

Love the passenger view and talk - handy feature for a carload.

Then for the price, you had to really empty the bank to get any of the nicer features on it.

although this Carnival had great features, there are somethings about it that are annoying.

The carnival is stylish, clean looking, comfortable, and great for road trips!

My wife and I recently retired and wanted a new, reliable vehicle for trips and everyday driving.The KIA Carnival is great people and pet mover with a smooth ride and comfortable interior.

- Seats are, generally, comfortable for long trips.

Great car, spacious, comfortable and fun tech.

The 13 year old grand kids deal with the travels in comfort.

It is more comfortable than the Pacifica.

Super spacious, comfortable, loaded with features!

I am one impressed Kia repeat owner and I look forward to showing off the Carnival to all my mom friends!

We are a blended family and they are ages 10, 12, 12 and 14.

Plenty of room inside even in 3rd row for our 6’3” son.

but you have kids that love to ding doors parked next to your car, THIS Multi-Purpose Vehicle is the one to buy.

I got family that’s Kia fans and recommend me test drive one, it was nice I wasn’t too impressed with it, it had that familiar feel when I test drove a Sedona many years ago, felt cheap in my opinion..but to each their own.

What an amazing family car and this from for  Toyota owner! !

I would definitely recommend this vehicle to other moms.

ride

Kids are all grown, retiring in 3yrs and after owning several I must say this is a nice ride to take on trips

My wife has Lymphedema in both legs and is in a lot of pain when riding for more than 2 hours.

Beautiful ride feels like the car is on rails when it is driving on all roads.

Compared to our 2018 Honda exl odyssey we believe this feels like it has much more room and is a smoother ride .

2019 Honda Odyssey

A few months ago started to smell gas(Fuel) found out it was a faulty fuel pump, so i did what any concerned parent of three children would do and had it replaced immediately!

In short, my brand new Odyssey had experienced two major electrical malfunctions and a major paint failure in two months of ownership.

Ranked number 1 in safety, it was our top choice of minivans.

Best minivan, best resale, no reason to shop for anything else.

Wanted another mini-van to carry all my stuff when I travel for work and as a occasional van-camper.

Things that I love:  8 seats, chance to change the layout of the seats, comfort, security, mpgs (even if this is a minivan).

very nice and comfortable driving this minivan.

I finally make peace with driving a van because 2019 Odyssey looks more like a wagon than a traditional minivan.

but the minivan was the way to go for our growing family.

you feel like you are driving a luxury car and not a mini van.

I was one of those that said "I'll never drive a minivan!" Then.

It is very reliable and I couldn’t be more happy, I wish Honda offered certain upgrades out of pocket like the media package.

It also came with additional cool new safety features while driving.

Super quiet on the road and has every feature you can think of and some you can't ( I have the Elite model).

We love the magic slide second row as we can readjust the outboard set to the center and remove the center jump seat and we like the apple play feature.

Best features, lots of room and it claims I was making up to 32mpg on a 7 hour roadtrip home.

The safety features, which are an "upgrade" from 2014, simply frustrate.

I love this van because it has all the features for Moms and Dads.

Considering all of the other features the vehicle has.

All in all I love this vehicle and was surprised a van could be so enjoyable and comfortable to drive

It is comfortable,  love the heated seats and the ride is very smooth.

Bought this vehicle to support my wife’s medical needs: low and easy to enter, comfort of ride, spacious environmental controlled space for transportation of my wife’s medical supplies and smooth ride for her medical equipment.

Rides well, comfortable and stylish interior.

Newest of the new
Great Vehicle
strong AC
Great sound system
easy to drive
good gas mileage
comfortable seats
lovely arm rests
east to move around in
nimble to drive
good engine power

The comfort and space is great for a growing family and one with multiple car seats!

Not so great, stereo and dashboard control/info center, ride comfort, transmission shifting at lower speeds.

She says is super comfy and she doesn't feel like she's driving a huge car at all.

Seating is wide and comfort on your tush.

Best for road trips and taking the dogs along with everyone and everything else while you travel.

It’s roomy enough for a family of 8 and we may be able to add one more.

We took 2 familys on a 4 hour (8 round) trip to the beach.

Other than lane control it is a great safety van that I'm happy to have with my whole family in it.

Honda is really put a lot of effort to be the primer choice for a FUNctional family van owning experience.

Backup camera, lots of room, iPhone integration, it’s all good!

This car what I need is more lage room good gas mileage and also good for long drive and also in city driving I recommend to my friend also this model

2020 Honda Odyssey

radio

A typical sequence is the radio will shut down, a “Network communication lost” message will appear, then the system will reboot itself.

It started with static noise we could hear all the time even with the radio off.

I can't listen to the radio, music on my phone or see the back up camera and it makes a crackling noise that you can't turn off.
