  Im enjoying the ride so far! - 2006 Chrysler Pacifica
  By John Kennedy - November 15 - 2:00 am

  I have had this FWD Basic Model for just a couple of months and have enjoyed a really nice ride so far. Our other car is a 2007 RX350 and while this vehicle does have the same features and comfort, its pretty close and and has more room inside. I enjoy driving it. My first tank of gas gave me 17.9 miles per gallon. As good as our other car that is 500 lbs lighter with a 3.5 L engine.

  One of the best Ive had - 2006 Chrysler Pacifica
  By Kevin - October 28 - 2:00 am

  Bought with 26k, now has 105k. Replaced control arm, battery, struts. Needs backrest motor replaced. Great road car, SO comfortable, quiet and smooth. Runs/rides/drives great still. Mileage as advertised. Getting rid of it--with new service vehicle it sits most of the time. Love the sound system, roominess, handling. Better in snow than my wifes 06 outback. It has been the nicest, most dependable car Ive had.

  Love it so far - 2006 Chrysler Pacifica
  By Love it so far - August 16 - 8:43 am

  I bought my Pacifica new in 2006 and I love it.I hear all these bad reviews on it and it makes me think that if someone has something to complain about it they will post it and if they don’t then they don’t look to make it public. I love my car and so far I am happy with it. My brake light comes on at some point every time I drive it but I could care less. One of my arms on the rear hatch broke but I replaced it myself for $12. It was easy. It does seem like it’s starting to burn a quart of oil every 3k miles or so but that’s no big deal to me.It’s not normal but I do what I have to do. I use synthetic oil and I also add Lucas oil just in case. Overall I am happy so far.

  Another fine Chrysler vehicle - 2006 Chrysler Pacifica
  By John S. - June 1 - 9:18 pm

  Mine has about 56,000 miles, mostly highway usage and has never (never) had any service issues! It looks good, has decent seat comfort, adequate adult performance and good gas mileage (almost EXACTLY what the car is rated for).Still running on original tires with lots of tread left. What is not to like? I have now had 5 Chrysler cars. They have given me better service from the previous GM and Fords I had and also the horrible Saturn Vue I foolishly bought (ugh). I have considered buying a slightly used Mercedes (for the snob appeal), but I just cant abandon Chrysler given the great results Ive had.

  2006 pacifica - 2006 Chrysler Pacifica
  By Kemong - May 18 - 2:37 am

  Bought used at repo auction. Very pleased with driving and handling. Lots of room for the family. This car is fat and requires attention getting in and out of parking spaces. No problems after 7K miles of city and highway driving. Only expense so far is oil, tires and alignment. Brakes are next. No engine issues.

  2006 Chrysler Pacifica-Touring - 2006 Chrysler Pacifica
  By S.J. Davalos - April 13 - 1:43 pm

  I bought the vehicle a little over 2 yrs ago with 39,000 mi. So far Ive had to replace both cv joints at under 42,000mi, 2 coil packs, front disc brakes, transmission leak at 40,000. The gas mileage stinks, and the front brakes are having problems breaking again. This would not have happened with a Japanese vehicle. You can bet that this is my FIRST AND LAST Dodge/Chrysler vehicle I ever buy and would only recommend it to our enemies.

  LOVED OUR PACIFICA - 2006 Chrysler Pacifica
  By Liz - January 19 - 11:53 am

  Weve had our car for 38 months. Have had nothing go wrong with it. Our lease is over next month and we wanted to buy a new one but found out they are no longer being made.

  Poor Gas Mileage - 2006 Chrysler Pacifica
  By duneriders - January 16 - 4:52 pm

  This car is roomy inside for a family of 4. I could only fit 2 carseats in the back seat, so if you have more than 2 children, I wouldnt suggest buying. It has a lot of space in the rear cargo area, it is enough to fit, stroller, play yard, and luggage and still have room to spare. It didnt get the 17 in town and 23 on freeway that I expected, I only got 14 in town and 20 on freeway, and I am not a fast speedy driver.

  Reliable Ride - 2006 Chrysler Pacifica
  By Jeff - October 29 - 5:11 pm

  I first leased the vehicle in 06 and at the end of the agreement Chrysler gave a great discount and bought the car. I have 50k miles on it, still original tires. I have replaced both headlights, and the front brakes and the oil regularly its been a tank. The highway ride is great, they improved the engine in later years and then just gave up. Youll see them on the road for a long time to come.
