Overview & Reviews
Changes to the Chrysler Pacifica for 2006 include minor exterior trim revisions, available auto tilt-down side mirrors and a larger glovebox. The base engine has also been dropped.
- 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.

Pacificas Rock - 2006 Chrysler Pacifica
By Good Vehicle - August 5 - 3:40 amWhile this is not the best car it is a good car. For a big vehicle it transmits a fair amount of the road. There is a tendency to oversteer in sharp turns but it does not lean. The ABS feels funny when doing a normal stop. There is an awful harmonic when the rear windows are lowered partially with speed over 40 mph. It is roomy for carrying but lacks rear leg room and the 3d row is just for kids.

Great! Not a problem - 2006 Chrysler Pacifica
By EBM - August 4 - 10:45 pmBest car. Had it almost three years and not one problem (how often does that happen). Drives great, fun to drive, mileage good for the weight and size (17 city, 23+ highway), plenty of room, quiet, fun to drive (did I already say that?). Took it on three long trips and was a breeze. Felt very secure, true to the road, couldnt ask for a better car. Lease is up and I dont want to give it up. Might have to buy another one.

So Far, So Good - 2006 Chrysler Pacifica
By Mike B. - July 7 - 10:26 pmI had driven a Pacifica Touring AWD from SW PA to Dickson, Tn on several occasions and took a few different routes to see how she ran. I had my favorite time through the mountains of WV. It has an excellent ride shared with its Benz siblings, is quiet, and has beautiful interior. I have a Signature Series with two tone gray/black leather and aluminum trim where the woodgrain usually is. Gas mileage is OK for a 4500 pound machine, but the 19 inch tire option will kill you, $250.00 per tire! Using the Auto Stick it is peppy, but if youre not used to a revving engine to make power you may find it sluggish. It serves my family of 4 plus the neighbors kids well!!! Overall a great product!

Cool Pacifica 2006 - 2006 Chrysler Pacifica
By AKA - June 30 - 3:36 pmThis has been couple of weeks for my new 2006 Pacifica Touring. 1) Looks good both in and out 2) Cloth interior seats are comfy 3) Controls are easy 4) Some features are like luxury car 5) Second row seat center console is no value. 6) Engine is very noisy and sluggish 7) Something must be done for the driver side blind spot 8) The controls on the steering are not visible during the night i.e., no background light.

Great SUV crossover - 2006 Chrysler Pacifica
By Cindy - May 28 - 1:13 pmIts a fun car to drive. It handles well in snow. I like the idea of having a minivan size but a SUV look and handling features. Its comfortable to drive with lots of storage and plenty of sitting.

The Good the bad and the ugly!!!!!! - 2006 Chrysler Pacifica
By dmrtx - April 28 - 12:08 amI really love driving this car, it has lots of room and has the feel of a luxury car. (the good) I have had issues with the passenger airbag light coming. It has been 4 times for this and they say they have reprogrammed the system. The last time it was in the sales manager stated that you shouldnt lay anything on the seat if no one was sitting in it. That makes no sense! (the bad) Have 25K miles, have been having issues when starting to drive the wheels lock up and the only thing that seems to fix it is to back up about 10 ft and then drive forward. Now its making a popping noise when you start to drive forward. The dealer checked the parking brake and found nothing. (the ugly)

Pacifica review - 2006 Chrysler Pacifica
By nate - April 11 - 6:39 pmIt has been very dependable we had a trailer hitch installed and it has pulled a trailer over 200 miles one-way to our cabin with no problems.

Love This Vehicle! - 2006 Chrysler Pacifica
By JuliaL. - April 6 - 10:30 pmI bought this vehicle slightly used in 2006 and have not a single regret! I have three children and the space is perfect, not to big or small. The gas mileage is great, I use synthetic oil. This vehicle is a dream for a single mom like myself, very reliable. Not a problem, not a complaint here!

Troubled - 2006 Chrysler Pacifica
By Liz - April 4 - 8:39 amBought the Pacifica when it was just a year old. 36,000 mi and already have ABS light on and some kind of leak from evaporator tank to gas tank. The only way to find this problem was through dealership because dashboard computer system "so sophisticated" my trustworthy mechanic wouldnt touch it. Also tends to speed up when I brake, hard choppy braking, sometimes feel like Im driving a Suburban with a trailer and boat attached. I live in a hot climate and AC does not cool enough. Hear a clicking in the steering wheel column. Very uncomfortable getting people into third row seats. No storage when all seats taken. Im a single mom with two children and this car is worrying me.
