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.

Diamond in the rough - 2005 Chrysler Pacifica
By Bob Baxter - October 28 - 6:00 amI 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.

Happy Owner - first Chrysler - 2005 Chrysler Pacifica
By Dag - October 21 - 1:40 amI 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.

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

By Susie91246 - August 16 - 11:03 pmI 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.

Best buy!! - 2005 Chrysler Pacifica
By chrissyws - July 19 - 4:56 pmMy husband and I just purchased this vehicle a month ago and are in LOVE!!! We traded in a 2002 Jeep Grand Cherokee and do not miss it at all! There is no commparison. The Jeep had horrible gas mileage, very noisy and bumpy, and uncomfortable. We have owned luxury cars and to us this car is above them. The ride is so smooth, handling is wonderful, and overall a fun car to drive. I was a little hesitant due to my minivan phobia but could not be more pleased. You do need to watch carefully when reversing but that is the only concern I have. All our friends have also fallen in love and one is actually going to purchase the Pacifica. We highly recommend this car!!

New car - 2005 Chrysler Pacifica
By Don - June 27 - 11:33 pmIn first 1000 miles had to take car back 6 times to get "Free DVD" system to operate correctly. Car came with DVD in dash from factory and Dealer advertised "Free DVD Monitor" with sale. What I was not told was the monitor was not going to be a Chrysler unit but a cheap aftermarket. I found out the hard way that it does not turn off when folded back up and the key is off. Had to jump car twice before found out what was running battery down. Also had Uconnect system installed and its phone book feature does not work very well. Uconnect does a good job of receiving calls but makes entering items in the phone book very hard.

Loving every minute of it - 2005 Chrysler Pacifica
By Chenango Mango - June 5 - 5:10 amTraded in an Audi A4 Avant because I needed a bigger car with the addition of a new child. Read all the reviews, test drove the VW Passat, Volvo XC and Audi A6. The Pacifica just has so much more room and functionality and, suprisingly, its darn fun to drive. It doesnt hug the corners like my Audi did, but thats little sacrifce based on what Im gaining. This car has done very well in the snow with all-season tires but I do plan on getting snows for next winter. If Chyslers quality sustains itself over the next 3 years, I will easily lease another one. Right now, I have nothing bad to say about this car based on 1 month and 1000 miles. I love it.

Simply Amazing SUV - 2005 Chrysler Pacifica
By vamfrank - May 2 - 1:04 amI simply love this car. Solid , reliable, and great looks. It is like driving a Mercedez with a chrysler logo. I was a bit reluctant to go with an American car, but no regrets. I am still amazed at my car. Pure luxury

Wonderful - 2005 Chrysler Pacifica
By Happy Customer - April 17 - 1:36 amI received the Pacifica for my fist car last year and I absolutely love it! Even being a teenager I dont regret picking this over another car. The handling and performance are great. Interior quality and appearance are superb. One of the best buys you can get for the space, luxury, and overall satisfaction. A definite must for anyone looking in this class of SUV
