This Year's Model Updates:

A midlevel Touring model is added to the Pacifica lineup, and the base model loses some of its standard equipment to accommodate a new lower price. Rear parking assist is now optional.

Pros:
  • Exceptional comfort for four, drives more like a sedan than a minivan, top-notch safety scores, upscale interior design.
Cons:
  • Average room for six, not as family-friendly as most minivans, spotty reliability on early models.

    The look really got my attention. The only draw back to me is there is not a lot of front row room for the driver and passenger. I feel chrysler should take out the third row seat,that way the could make more room up front. Other than that I love my pacificia.

  • Good Car todrive - 2005 Chrysler Pacifica

    This car handles well in traffic and we no longer feel overpowered by all the large vehicles on the road. I estimate one third of the cars on the roads her are SUVs

    I researched all of the similar vehicles on the market, regardless of price, and decided that the Pacifica was the best value for us. With all the amenities that it has, it feels like a luxury vehicle. I drive a Corvette in the summer, my wife drives an MR2 Spyder - we both love the way the Pacifica handles. Now, if it can just pull our boat this summer, we will call it a winner all year long.

  • Engine Gone - 2005 Chrysler Pacifica
    By -

    I have had some many problems with my pacific. It started over heating in June 2009 and now Im in the process of purchasing a new engine. It stopped on the highway and I had to have it towed to a repair shop. $4500.00 for new engine. With a 72 month loan, I owe $4800.00. Add $4500.00 to it. Im convinced that Chrysler was aware of the problems and high maintenance. Oh, thats way its no longer in production. Hum!

  • Happy Owner - first Chrysler - 2005 Chrysler Pacifica
    By -

    I bought this car for my wife as safety and cargo were two of the biggest concerns when we were shopping. I cant believe how quiet this car is when driving on the road. Our baby loves it and falls to sleep the second we drive off. The grip to the road feels tight and acceleration is smooth. The car does not feel large and also sits higher than a regular car (not as high as larger SUV). Gas mileage is adequeate at best and fortunately only requires regular. We now have 1,350 miles and are averaging 14.9/gallon. I hope it gets better as the car breaks in more. We know two other couples who have since bought the car.

  • A Great Vehicle - 2005 Chrysler Pacifica
    By -

    The Pacifica offers a great ride. I feel secure and over long miles experience minimal fatique, vs, other vehicles that I have owned. The quality of the interior and the placement of instraumentation is excellent. I rate this auto as one of the best that I have owned.

  • Nice Vehicle - 2005 Chrysler Pacifica
    By -

    We bought this car new. One unique problem that was fixed even though the car was out of warranty. Headliner buckled and was replaced. No mechanical problems, it drives very nice and the ride is smooth. A problem common to all SUVs Ive had is the side visibilty. Pillars make you have to look carefully. Highway mileage is over 21 mpg with air on at over 75MPH. No oil use like some others say. We have the small V6

  • I need to trade it - 2005 Chrysler Pacifica
    By -

    I bought this car in 2006 after renting one and trading in a 2001 Ford minivan. I thought that this was gonna be a long lasting relationship with this car but I have already replaced both axles, and in 2008 I stayed at the shop with it. Now I took it back about a week ago to the dealership because I heard a humming sound and no air along with water hitting my left foot. As soon as I can I am done with Chrysler cars.
