  • othing but net - 2017 Chrysler Pacifica
    By -

    Its bigger than most minivan but easy to enter and leave. Very satisfied so far.

  • 2017 Chrysler Pacifica has 3 flaws - 2017 Chrysler Pacifica
    By -

    The digital speedometer and computer screen are very difficult to see, read during afternoon sunlight. The transmission has lots of play when put in, out of park. The drivers and passenger seat are too far away from the door entry. It takes long legs, a big step from the ground outside to get into the seats.

  • mmm...Ill pass. But thank you!! - 2017 Chrysler Pacifica
    By -

    An OK vehicle. I just cannot see myself using it as a daily driver, particularly with the dismal black seating. It may have been tweaked, but it screams "suburb soccer mom".

  • Not designed for tall drivers? - 2017 Chrysler Pacifica
    By -

    What were the designers thinking? I went to try out the Pacifica based on reviews. Adjusted seat and steering wheel but could not get into the van without undue difficulty as too low and cramped. Could not fit comfortably in front seat, roof too low, controls not placed correctly. Rear vision impeded by pillars and obstructions. Vehicle ground clearance is too low and long overhang beyond front wheels (not good for places that have a lot of rain/runoff.) Immediately tried out Dodge Grand Caravan. No problems with ingress or egress. Could adjust controls perfectly. Had several inches headroom. With rear seat/ headrests folded, had no problems with rear visibility. Conclusion - The Pacifica designers were all short people or maybe they only feel short people would buy one? . My sister-in-laws husband had the exact same experience in another city/dealer and he is shorter/larger than I am (I am 62.) Why design a minivan only for shorter people????

  • We love it! - 2017 Chrysler Pacifica
    By -

    Weve had the Limited Pacifica for about 6 weeks and have put about 3,000 miles and we all love it! The front seats are super comfortable and feels like a luxury car. Both my husband and I love the drive. The van feels very solid, no rattling at all. We did a very extended test drive on our van to make sure of this because of some of the reviews Ive read. No issues. I would agree that the second row seats are not quite as comfortable the Honda or the Toyota. Our kids dont seem to notice or mind and we love the stow and go option. That was a huge factor for us and I have used it multiple times. Actually our kids like the middle row stowed and sit in the 3rd row. Ive seen multiple folks mention the lack of 3rd row TVs. Every kid can see a screen. Also there are USB jacks in the rear for iPads, you could always but iPad/kindle holders behind each seat if you wanted. We love they van!

  • Chrysler Pacifica Touring L Plus - 2017 Chrysler Pacifica
    By -

    We drove Honda Odyssey earlier but were not very happy with the 2015 model. I can say we did not make a mistake with the purchase of 2017 Pacifica. Rides very smooth, easy on turns, very comfortable. Our salesman Mohamed Omar knew the car very well and explained to us each and everything.

  • $36,000 and you have to pay extra for navigation!! - 2017 Chrysler Pacifica
    By -

    Be aware that you will not get navigation unless you purchase the Touring L Plus and add the navigation package. Any lower package with the 8.4 inch radio requires a dealer install and additional cost of $600 and no free map updates. Yes the vehicle is nice but come on!! I have friends who have navigation on their $15,000 dollar cars and it was included!!! Chryslers response to me is they will put it under review so I am putting it on reviews. Honestly right now I would say dont buy anything from Chrysler.

  • Love/hate relationship w/ my Pacifica - 2017 Chrysler Pacifica
    By -

    My 2017 Pacifica replaced my 2014 Odyssey. From a driving perspective, it’s a class or 2 above the Odyssey. It’s so much quieter and smoother to drive. However, from a functionality and reliability standpoint, it fails compared to the Odyssey. My Uconnect has many quirks and does not functionally normally. I’ve spent over 3 hrs on the phone w/ tech support but there are still many quirks that tech support can’t fix and they recommended that I take it to the dealer. Who has time for that?! The Pacifica’s interior is stylish, but it lacks many nooks and crannies for storage compared to the Odyssey. Also, all the seats are extremely difficult with car seat installation – seat bottom reclines too much, headrest protrudes too much, latch and tether difficult to use and limited 2nd row width to accommodate 3 car seats together comfortably. The Odyssey was 1000x better in this respect. So far I’m enjoying the drive. But I miss the day to day functionality of the Odyssey.

  • Best I ever owned, beats Honda, Toyota, easily. - 2017 Chrysler Pacifica
    By -

    My 2017 Chrysler Pacifica LX, with the rebates and discounts (not offered with Honda or Toyota), was thousands less than either Honda or Toyota. I paid 25,500 for the base model which is many thousands less than any other minivan except the Grand Caravan. Its the quietest riding car ever. Gas mileage is better than advertised by about 3 miles per gallon, as I consistently get 32 mpg on the hiway, and 27 combined city and hiway. I had a 2014 Chrysler Town and Country, which was also a great van, but this is better as it gets much better gas mileage, is quieter, turns shorter and easier to handle. The stow and go, not available on Honda, or Toyota, makes it the most versatile van ever. I can use it to haul cargo or up to 7 people, or any combination of both. The Pacifica rides quieter and smoother, gets better mileage, is more versatile, Turns shorter and handles better, and even costs less than Honda or Toyota, as I test drove these before buying the Pacifica. I dont know if it will hold the resale value well yet, but someone thinks so as I leased mine for way less than a Toyota or Honda.

  • Problems in the first week - 2017 Chrysler Pacifica
    By -

    So, we were super excited about this car (or as excited as one can get about a minivan), and as other people mentioned, it shows really well and has some great features, but 1 week in (thats right, just 1 week) weve already having issues. Picked up the car on Monday; Tuesday it was in the service shop because the TVs didnt work; Wednesday/Thursday was happy with the car; Friday Im making another service appointment because the rear/trunk liftgate no longer functions. Rating as 3 stars (for now), but anymore issues and Ill lower it to 2 or 1 star. Trying to be patient - but well see how long that lasts.
