Overview & Reviews

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.

• 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, spotty reliability on early models.

  It Eats Oil - 2005 Chrysler Pacifica
  By dontbuy - September 11 - 8:44 pm

  Dont Buy! I bought this car w/ 27kmi & from beginning it consumed oil. They denied it was a problem for yrs. Had to change oil at 2500mi or it would run dry. Struggled w/ Chrysler to fix for years. Finally, at 80k, w/ a lot of screaming at manager. threats of attorneys, & 50 posts printed out of others w/ same problem, they looked into it further. Consumed 3/4 quart oil every 500mi after the first 1000mi. Finally they replaced engine. Mechanic said it was written all over engine. 3 broken motor mounts, exhaust leak, computer malfunction all not covered under top Chrysler extended warranty. $500 each repair. At least warranty paid for engine. Just dumped the car for a more reliable Toyota.

  Should of done the research first! - 2005 Chrysler Pacifica
  By billfari69 - September 10 - 10:06 pm

  We bought our Pacifica used in 06 with 28000 miles on it. Too good to be true.At 34050 miles The oil was completely gone, and there was one oil change done between that time. Good thing we bought the extended warranty. WRONG! Chrysler claimed it was our fault for not checking oil every time we bought gas. After months of fighting with Chrysler we had to give in and purchase a new used engine for $5500. We are now stuck with this car, we are so upside down its ridiculous. Do yourself a favor and upgrade now before its too late.

  Never Again....... - 2005 Chrysler Pacifica
  By Cassandra - September 5 - 1:48 pm

  After my beloved 97 Explorer went into the shop yet again, I began to look for a new vehicle. My needs were gas mileage, interior room and ample storage. I liked the looks of the Pacifica and really liked the 25 mpg on the sticker. Well, the gas mileage runs about 16 mpg and it spent the first 3 months in and out of the shop including and a new transmission, abs sensor and on and on. Lets not even talk about the people Ive cut off on the highway in the blind spot(s). Would I buy another? No way.

  Dont Buy It!! - 2005 Chrysler Pacifica
  By Badchkam - August 25 - 11:41 pm

  If you dont mind the possibility of engine problems then I guess this car is ok, but any Mfg that thinks it is ok for the engine to burn a quart of oil every 1000 miles is out of their mind! I dont like the idea of buying a new engine that we are now faced with since the low oil censor light also failed to work!

  I love my Pacifica - 2005 Chrysler Pacifica
  By justlivinlife - August 24 - 10:39 am

  I bought my 2005 Touring Pacifica in June of 2005, and have love it ever since. I have put 95,000 miles on, It has not had any mechanical problems. It actually needs its first repair, which is why Im online looking for information. The Pacifica needs a EGR sensor. I only have one issue with it. With just one child at home now, I feel that it is too big.

  love my 2005 pacifica - 2005 Chrysler Pacifica
  By Susie91246 - August 16 - 11:03 pm

  I love my Pacifica. I have lots of cars including an MG, 69 Camero and an 84 Corvet loved them too but now with kids, this is the best vehicle possible. Wouldnt trade it for anything. the gas mileage could be better but thats the only complaint 18 around town.

  It was nothing but trouble. - 2005 Chrysler Pacifica
  By zion - August 14 - 6:04 pm

  My first Chrysler product - off-lease with only 20K miles! Overall we have enjoyed the car interior features, BUT: for the first two months I drove car only once - from a dealer, and the rest - car was in repairs battery died (less than 3 years old) could not move a shifter from parking position – little plastic part got broken (under- engineered) engine light and "gas cap" message came on - EVAP system problem /leak ABS light came on and stayed means ABS was disengaged - probably bad sensors two tires started slow leaking air and tire-shop mechanic pointed out on micro cracks (expensive Michelin tires!) I lost my feeling of safety customer service virtually not existed.

  Stay away from the car!!! - 2005 Chrysler Pacifica
  By Klevrgirl - August 4 - 6:26 pm

  I have never written a review before, but am so upset with this car I chose to share with others so they can avoid the $ trap of owning this vehicle. First, the whole top end needed to be replaced after it started overheating repeatedly. Then the radiator hose kept dislodging due to 3 motor mounts which were broken. Then the air conditioning went out, and still isnt blowing correctly. Now?? It has the ABS sensors (all 4) being replaced, and I was told it may be more than that... Total cost?? with the extended drive train warranty?? Thousands... not to mention it is guaranteed to fail on you when you need it the most. Tow charges above and beyond AAA??--hundreds. I am stuck with a lemon.

  Gas Mileage - 2005 Chrysler Pacifica
  By Kiddles - August 3 - 6:25 pm

  I recently bought a 2005 Chrysler Pacifica under the impression from the dealers information that around town, the car gets 17 mpg and 22 on highway. I found by tracking that Im only getting 13-14 mpg. When I questioned the dealer, they said it was a rough estimate. To me, 15-16 would be a rough estimate.
