  • Great driving experience! - 2008 Chrysler Pacifica
    By -

    I, for the life of me cant understand why Chrysler stopped building such a great driving experience of the Pacifica. Im totally amazed at how well this piece of equipment handles itself on the highway as well as in town. Its not sluggish when you want to pass another car and the fact that its interfaced with Mercedes - Benz technology only adds to the driving experience. I just paid mine off, so the ride just got better!

  • I was foolish enough to get rid of 2004... - 2008 Chrysler Pacifica
    By -

    I had thought it was using oil. However, I later found out that it is normal with these cars as the lighter weight which improves the mileage is the reason. Oh well. Anyway an earlier post indicated the MP3 problem. I also experienced same. I later found this solution, after I had traded it in. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=294TFX3b5-A Hope this is viewed by the current owners.

  • Please start making the Pacifica again! - 2008 Chrysler Pacifica
    By -

    We bought a 2007 base model for our son to tour with his band and we had been looking for a late model Pacifica for a while ourselves. A loaded Limited fell into our laps. We could not have been more pleased. Ride is great. Seats and all the adjustments and memory are required for us with me 6-4 and wife 5-4 although I dont give up the driving duties much. It is our long distance car and I love to drive it. Chrysler HAS to reintroduce this car!!

  • Love my Pacifica - 2008 Chrysler Pacifica
    By -

    I own two Chryslers one pacifica and one pt cruiser. I adore my pacifica so much. When we heard they werent making them anymore we turned in our 2006 model for an upgraded Touring 2008. I cant even compare the two cars because they are so different. This is definitely my favorite car i have ever owned and love the comfort and feeling of safety traveling with my family. i hope it lasts forever, or they decide to start making them again. I wish both my cars were pacificas.

  • It Saved My Wifes Life - 2008 Chrysler Pacifica
    By -

    My wife has driven 3 of these vehicles, 2004, 2006 and now the 2008 Touring W P Chrysler Edition. The car is one of the safest vehicles on the road and it built like a tank with Mercedes technology. My wife was rear ended (high speed)in a mulitiple car pile up on the freeway 5 months after getting the car and then hit a second time. She walked away without a scratch or bruise and the car survived quite well !! Why stop building this car? We would have bought them forever! Maybe decisions like this is why Chrysler went bankrupt. This car was heavily influenced by Daimler and was the best product to come out of their influence.

  • Great Car! So Far... - 2008 Chrysler Pacifica
    By -

    I absolutely love my Pacifica. I have the Signature Series with all the extras. Although I was worried that having so many power features could potentially mean expensive repair bills, this has not been an issue thus far. The Pacifica is extremely comfortable for four passengers, but it could have used a little more leg room in the third row. The seats are supportive, the the ride is smooth and quiet, and the engine and transmission perform well. I have had no problems at all with this car. I am extremely pleased my purchase.

  • Extremely Pleased - 2008 Chrysler Pacifica
    By -

    Traded an 03 Town & Country that served us very well. Couldnt be more pleased with the Pacifica as a replacement. Refined and quiet, well done interior and great performance for a vehicle of this size. Havent had it long enough to judge the fuel economy but Im really not concerned. This is a very well made and well thought out car. Not to mention 30% off sticker from a dealer that was on the "list".

  • We love it - 2008 Chrysler Pacifica
    By -

    Replaced a 2006 3.5 4 spd with this 2008 4.0 6 spd. 06 had a transmission problem that could not be fixed before we had to travel. What a difference. Must faster from the light, better milage on the highway but about the same mpg here in the Arkansas mountain community. Did replace air filter with K&N and use synthetic oil. Rides and drives better than any vehicle we have owned. Can drive 800 miles a day with no problem. Sorry theyre going to discontinue. Guess with the bumper to bumper lifetime warranty well drive it until it wont go.

  • Sad to see this baby go - 2008 Chrysler Pacifica
    By -

    This is the second Chrysler Pacifica Ive owned. I was happy with my 05 but wanted to upgrade to the 08 with 4.0L engine and 6 spd transmission. The difference with the extra power and smoother shifting is incredible. Too bad they didnt get it right initially but they have it right now, just in time to discontinue the line. What a shame, this is one of the best vehicles Chrysler has ever made. I bought one of the last of the 08 model year and hopefully itll last a long time. The lifetime powertrain warranty should ensure that it does.

  • Great Crossover - 2008 Chrysler Pacifica
    By -

    I bought a 2004 Pacifica AWD when they came out. Great crossover! My family and I have driven all over the U.S. no problems. Lots of cargo space. Just traded in on a 2008 because of all that is on it unlike Ford/GM. A lot for the money. Sorry that Chrysler is not going to continue building them.
