Overview & Reviews

The Pacifica is an all-new six-passenger vehicle that combines the attributes of a wagon, minivan and SUV.

• Exceptional comfort for four, drives more like a sedan than a minivan, top-notch safety scores, upscale interior design.

• Average room for six, not as family-friendly as most minivans, gets expensive when you add high-end options, fussy climate and radio controls.

  Glad I bought it - 2004 Chrysler Pacifica
  By JLaVigne - November 7 - 1:00 am

  Bought when 1 year old with 15k miles. Car had some initial warranty work done on it (tie rod end, rear transaxle leak, etc.) Bought extended warranty because of the repairs, but has been solid ever since. Under-powered for sure but a great hwy cruiser. Large, comfortable, well appointed cabin for me (Im 64" 260 so a bit of extra interior room is appreciated.) Wife and kids have plenty of room and plenty of creature comforts. MPG is so-so at 17-18 around town but 23-24 on highway. It is my daily driver and I have been very pleased with it over the last 5.5 years. Given the state of affairs at Chrysler I am not sure I would buy another Chrysler, but this C-Pac has been great.

  Our trip - 2004 Chrysler Pacifica
  By Edwinna Brubaker - October 15 - 2:00 am

  Hi. Just wanted to let you know that your pacifica rated excellent with us. This past summer my husband and myself took a trip from New Hampshire to Colorado and back. Im handicapped due to problems with my liver and other health problems so we werent sure if I could make the trip or not. My husband put both rows of the seats down and made a bed for me when I got tired or was in pain. The pacifica performed well. We had no problems at all with the car and were able to make side trips to see the presidents and I was able to rest anytime I needed to. Thank you again for making a car flexible for us to use. Sincerely Mrs. E. Brubaker

  Weak on quality - 2004 Chrysler Pacifica
  By T - September 7 - 3:46 pm

  The salesman touted the Mercedes Benz connection. Though I dont own a Mercedes, I would not compare the quality of this auto with a Mercedes - far from it. Generally it has a low quality feel. Very low power (even when new) from a 6 cylinder reported to be 250 hp plus really poor mileage (15 mpg). Then add stupid problems that are quality related such as an oil pan made of "soft aluminum" whose drain plug is easily stripped ($700 repair), air conditioner failure, lots of batteries (four so far), heater fan failure, rocker panel made of breakable plastic. In comparison, my Acura tl with equal miles (90k) drives like the day I purchased it and has required no repairs

  It is a shame they stopped making it - 2004 Chrysler Pacifica
  By Chinatown - August 19 - 5:16 pm

  Bought the car with 25,000. It now has 66,000. Still have the original brakes. My local mechanic says I should be good for about another 10,0000. Yes, I have had the same repeated problems with the suspension. However, I bought an extended warranty ( 6 years/100,000 miles), through my credit union with no deductible. The only thing I have paid for, outside of routine maintenance is the Wisconsin tax on the bill. I replaced the tires at 45,000.

  Luv my Pacifica - 2004 Chrysler Pacifica
  By Donna - August 12 - 9:42 pm

  I bought this car brand spanking new in July of 2004. I fell in love with it right off the get, did research for over a year and still came back to this one. It has 93,000 miles on it, I drive a lot, beautiful ride and comfort. Had a few problems, same as some noise and squeaking and clunk front end. Original brakes had them checked several times. So far so good, right now having issue with stalling, surging, ran codes and found nothing so far so keep"n fingers crossed. But all in all I love it. Going on a long trip this vehicle is like riding on a cloud, such comfort. I knew when I bought it about the gas so I cant complain on that. Its held up nicely so far. Also have a sebring. 2001

  Best car I ever owned - 2004 Chrysler Pacifica
  By ed dugan - July 10 - 2:43 pm

  I have owned dozens of cars and rented dozens more. The 2004 Chrysler Pacifica is the best car I have ever owned or driven. It looks great, drives great and has a lot of Mercedes in it. It truly is an elegant car and I wouldnt do a thing to change it. Some of the features, like the second seat CD player are wasted on me since we have no children but Im sure it will help the resale value. However, I cannot imagine ever wanting to get rid of this ride.My wife has a serious back problem and we test drove 8-10 vehicles looking for seating that would be comfortable for her. This car was head and shoulders above the others.

  Im happy and looking for a 2nd 2004 - 2004 Chrysler Pacifica
  By John - May 11 - 1:12 am

  Ive read the other reviews and I agree with the car having blind sides. We solved it with little oval mirrors stuck on sideview mirrors. We have actually done this to every car weve owned. My wifes pacifica has the electronic rear view mirror. If I get my own pacifica I will change that to a conventional day/night mirror.It is hard to see at night when backing up,esp with tinted windows.I would probably install back up camera. I dont think they are that costly anymore.I would love to have an Escalade or a Navigator but they are lousy on gas. The Pacifica is at least 6 mpg better and has the room I need for my 2 very large dogs.

  Plenty of Room, Too many issues - 2004 Chrysler Pacifica
  By Derrick - April 24 - 3:44 pm

  This vehicle caught our eye immediately on the lot. We purchased it for the sole purpose of interior space and safety rating. With a very high safety rating and 3 rows of seats, this met our criteria. After about 2 years of enjoying the car in the summer time, we also came to the conclusion that we never should have purchased a non-AWD vehicle in Colorado Springs. This vehicle handles terribly on the snow. We had to buy winter tires just to get around. After 3 years, the problems started. Control Arm, in-dash computer, fuel gauge, struts, mounts, sway bar, etc.

  How can a modern car be this bad? - 2004 Chrysler Pacifica
  By Pachitica - April 13 - 10:06 am

  I have had many many cars. All types, foreign and domestic, sports cars and SUVs. I have never had so many things go wrong on a car. When I bought my Pacifica, I thought it would be the perfect blend between ability to carry my family and clients, tow a boat and not have the fuel consumption of my 5.7 liter tundra. Boy was I wrong. The fuel mileage is actually worse (15.4 mix city/hwy), I have so far needed to replace both motor mounts (by the way when I bought it it had 36k miles. Now 42k), the drivers seat (because it moves just enough to annoy the hell out of you when you leave a light), there is the well documented creak in the front end, periodically there is a clunk when
