FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

I AM HAVING A PROBLEM WITH THE FUEL GAUGE. THE FUEL GAUGE WILL READ FULL AND WHEN THE FUEL GAUGE GETS TO HALF A TANK THE GAUGE DROPS TO EMPTY. ALSO WHILE FILLING THE TANK THE NOZZLE FROM THE GAS PUMPS WILL ALWAYS CUT OFF, IT WILL PUMP A FEW DOLLARS AND THEN STOP AND YOU HAVE TO PUMP THE FUEL IN VERY SLOW. I HAVE CHANGED THE FUEL PUMP IN THE TANK THREE TIMES AND THE GAS TANK TWICE. NOTHING WORKS THIS HAS BEEN A PROBLEM NOW FOR ABOUT TWO YEARS. I HAVE BEEN STRANDED ON THE ROAD DUE TO THE FUEL GAUGE DROPPING TO EMPTY AND IT IS VERY SCARY.

CAR ENGINE SOMETIMES SHUTS OFF WHEN DOING LEFT HAND TURNS, THE ENGINE LOOSES COMPLETE POWER WHEN THIS HAPPENS. I HAVE TO SHIFT THE CAR INTO PARK TO TURN IT BACK ON. THERE ARE EVAP CODES ON BUT THE CHECK ENGINE DOES NOT TURN ON FOR THESE CODES, SMELL OF UN-BURNT FUEL SOMETIMES MAKES IT IN THE CABIN. THANKFULLY THE STALL HAS NOT HAPPENED WITH CARS COMING TOWARDS ME. THE GAS CAP WARNING ON CONTINUOUSLY EVEN THOUGH I HAVE PURCHASED MANY NEW OEM GAS CAPS.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

I CAN'T COMPLETELY FILL MY FUEL TANK. AT 1/2 TANK IT BOTTOMS OUT TO EMPTY. THE FUEL GAUGE IS COMPLETELY UNRELIABLE.WHEN MAKING A LEFT HAND TURN WHEN THE FUEL IS LOW IT WILL STALL AND SPUTTER. I WAS LUCKY ENOUGH THAT THE DEALER I BOUGHT IT FROM CHANGED THE FUEL PUMP RIGHT AFTER I BOUGHT IT BECAUSE I RAN OUT OF FUEL ON A TRIP TO OHIO FROM ILLINOIS BUT IT DIDN'T FIX THE ISSUE. I ONLY DRIVE IT IN TOWN BECAUSE I'M AFRAID OF RUNNING OUT OF FUEL. APPARENTLY THIS IS VERY COMMON WITH THIS VEHICLE AND I FEEL THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL. THIS ISSUE COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT, SOMEONE TO BE STRANDED IN EXTREME COLD/HEAT. IT'S UNRELIABLE AND A MAJOR THREAT TO SOMEONE'S SAFETY. CHRYSLER SHOULD BE ASHAMED.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

MY 2006 CHRYSLER PACIFICA SEEMS TO HAVE SOME VERY COMMON AND RELATED ISSUES TO AN EXISTING RECALL. MY VEHICLE EXPERIENCES ALL KIND OF ISSUES RELATED TO A FAULTY FUEL PUMP/TANK DESIGN AND POSSIBLY SOFTWARE ISSUES ALSO. MY VEHICLE CAN BE VERY HARD TO START. MY VEHICLE CAN SHUT OFF WITHOUT WARNING. (NO OTHER KNOWN ISSUES) MY VEHICLE TENDS TO THINK THE GAS CAP IS BAD. DISPLAYING GASCAP IN THE ODOMETER AREA. WE EXPERIENCE POWER LOSS, STALLS, POOR FUEL ECONOMY, FUEL CAPOR SMELL ON OCCASION THAT COULD IGNITE, IF FOR ANY REASON THE FUEL SYSTEM IS SLIGHTLY OVERFILLED BY EVEN TEN CENTS WORTH OF FUEL IT CAN POOR FUEL ONTO THE GROUND. THIS HAPPENS ON TOP OF THE TANK. NOT AT THE FILLER HOSE. CHECK ENGIN LIGHT CODE POINTS TO EVAPORATIVE SYSTEM. MY VEHICLE WAS MANUFACTURED IN AUGUST 2005. I BELIEVE THE FUEL PUMP MODULE IS BAD AS WELL AS POSSIBLY SOFTWARE. IF YOU DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH YOU WILL FIND THIS CAR IS KNOW TO HAVE EVAP SYSTEM AND FUEL SYSTEM ISSUES. LOTS OF THEM. ONE THAT COMES TO MIND IS A CONNECTOR ON THE PUMP OR MODEL CRACKING AND ALLOWING FUEL /AIR TO ESCAPE. I AM TERRIFIED MY CAR MIGHT BLOW UP WITH MY CHILDREN IN IT. I CAN'T GIVE EXACT DATES BECAUSE THIS HAPPENS ALL OF THE TIME. EVAP CODES RETURN, FUEL SMELLS, POOR ENGINE PERFORMANCE POWER LOSS, IF IT DOES SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING IT BECOMES HARD TO STEER. ETC ETC

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

SINCE I HAVE OWNED THE VEHICLE (2013) THERE HAVE BEEN PROBLEMS WITH GETTING THE CAR RUNNING AGAIN. FIRST WHILE IN MOTION THE VEHICLE WOULD TREMOR (IN THE FRONT) BEFORE SHUTTING DOWN, PARTICULARLY IF GOING ABOVE 25-30 MPH. WHEN THE CAR WAS SHUT OFF BY KEY IGNITION AND TURNED BACK ON IT WOULD START AGAIN. CODES FOR OXYGEN SENSOR WOULD COME UP, HAD THAT FIXED. PROBLEM BEGAN AGAIN A FEW MONTHS LATER. MULTIPLE TIMES WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY/OPEN ROAD THE SENSORS ON THE PANEL ALL LITE UP AND THE CAR SHUT DOWN. I HAD THE ALTERNATOR REPLACED TWICE FOR THIS ISSUE; THINKING THAT WAS THE PROBLEM. PRIOR TO THE SECOND ALTERNATOR REBUILD/REPLACEMENT THE FUEL GAUGE WOULD FLUCTUATE AFTER REACHING HALF A TANK. MOST OF THE TIME IT WOULD READ EMPTY WHEN THE TANK WAS HALF FULL; OR EMPTY WHEN THE TANK IS FULL. I NOTICED THE GAUGE WOULD DROP IF A TURN WAS MADE OR THE CAR HIT A BUMP/POT HOLE IN THE CITY STREET/HIGHWAY. I ATTEMPTED TO REPLICATE CONDITIONS TO GET THE GAUGE TO GO BACK TO NORMAL, THIS DID NOT ALWAYS WORK.OCCASIONALLY IT WOULD WAVE AROUND WHILE DRIVING. THE CAR BEGAN TO READ CODE FOR FUEL SYSTEM ISSUES. HAD THIS TESTED, FUEL SYSTEM WAS FINE; YET PROBLEM CONSISTED. WITH A HALF FULL TANK, THE CAR WOULD REPEATEDLY READ EMPTY, NOT ALLOW ANY ADDITIONAL GAS TO BE PUT INTO THE TANK (WOULD CUT OFF AT PUMP AS IF TANK WERE FULL), AND SHUT DOWN WHILE DRIVING IN DIFFERENT ROAD CONDITIONS AS IF THERE WERE NO GAS IN THE CAR. RIGHT NOW THE GAS GAUGE CONTINUES TO READ EMPTY WHEN THERE IS GAS IN THE TANK, I HAVE TROUBLE FILLING THE TANK AS IT CUTS OFF THE PUMP REPEATEDLY NOT ALLOWING NEW GAS TO BE PUT IN, THE CAR CUTS OFF OFTEN WHILE DRIVING.

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE

DRIVING HOME FROM WORK A GOOD SAMARITAN PULLED ME OVER AND ADVISED ME THE GAS WAS POURING OUT OF MY CAR, CALLED FIRE DEPARTMENT AND THEY PLUGGED LEAK AND I HAD IT TOWED TO DEALERSHIP. THEY ADVISED ME THERE WAS QUESTIONABLE DAMAGE TO THE TANK AND IT DIDN'T LOOK LIKE ANYTHING WAS RUN OVER OR HIT BUT CORNER OF GAS TANK WAS SEVERELY DAMAGED, LOST 3/4 TANK OF GAS ON ROAD. THE DEALERSHIP LOOKED OVER MY VEHICLE, I CALLED INSURANCE COMPANY TO REPORT INCIDENT. THEY DETERMINED THAT THE GAS TANK WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED AS WELL AS THE FUEL NECK FILLER VALVE AND BOTH FUEL PUMPS. I HAD ALL THE SUGGESTED WORK DONE AND TWO WEEKS AFTER HAVING MY CAR BACK I WOULD NOTICE THE TANK GO FROM 1/2 TANK TO EMPTY QUICKLY, NO LEAKING GAS SO I WOULD TRY TO PUT IN GAS AND ONLY ABLE TO PUT IN 2-3 GALLONS AT A TIME, IT THEN SHOOTS FROM EMPTY TO HALF TANK BACK DOWN, BACK UP AND DOWN. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AGAIN AND THEY DETERMINED INSTEAD OF THE USED GAS TANK A BRAND NEW ONE WAS NECESSARY. GOT MY CAR BACK ON 12/30 IMMEDIATELY WENT TO PUT GAS IN SINCE THEY HAD TO DRAIN TANK AND ONCE AGAIN THE SAME PROBLEM HAPPENED. I CANNOT PUT MORE THAN 2-3 GALLONS IN GAUGE FLUCTUATES BETWEEN 1/2 TANK TO EMPTY, RAN OUT OF GAS ON HIGHWAY CAR STALLED IN LEFT LANE LUCKILY I WAS ABLE TO GET OVER GET IT TOWED WHERE THEY TOLD ME IT HAD GAS IN IT, THEY PUT IN 2 GALLONS AT THE DEALERSHIP AND IT STARTED RIGHT UP. THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN AND AM SCARED TO DRIVE AROUND THREE KIDS IN CAR IF IT IS GOING TO STALL. THERE SEEMS TO BE A PROBLEM WITH FUEL SYSTEM. CONTACTED CHRYSLER AND THEY ASSIGNED ME A CASE MANAGER AND CASE NUMBER AND PROMISED TO WORK WITH DEALERSHIP TO GET CAR FIXED. I HAVE ALREADY BEEN WITHOUT MY CAR 4 TIMES AND A TOTAL OF 5 WEEK SINCE I BOUGHT CAR ON 9/07/16. I WOULD LOVE A SOLUTION AS I LOVE THE CAR.

THAT IS ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS AS OUR VEHICLE SUFFERED THE EXACT SAME PROBLEMS AS THEY ALL DID 2 WEEKS EARLIER!!!

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

MY VEHICLE STALLS WHEN REMAINING STILL, OR IF DRIVING IT WILL JUST SHUT OFF. TURNING LEFT AROUND A ROUND ABOUT IT WILL SHUT OFF. RECENTLY WHEN STOPPED IT WILL IDLE HIGH THEN SPUTTER AS IF IT WANTS TO SHUT OFF, SOMETIMES IT DOES. I KNOW THERE HAS BEEN A RECALL FOR VEHICLES MADE UP TO THE DATE NOVEMBER 2004. MINE WAS MANUFACTURED MAY 2005, SHOULD THAT MAKE A DIFFERENCE EVEN THOUGH MINE WAS MANUFACTURED ONE YEAR LATER AND STILL CAN HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM? JUST A NOTE, I HAVE YOUNG KIDS IN MY CAR. ANOTHER PROBLEM IS THE ENGINE, IN RESEARCHING I NOTICES THAT THERE HAVE BEEN A LOT OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT RUSTING ENGINE MOUNTS OR BREAKING OF ENGINE MOUNTS. AS MAY COMPLAINTS THAT I HAVE READ, I BELIEVE THAT THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL. I HAVE AN ENGINE MOUNT THAT IS RUSTED AND WORN OUT. FOR THE SAFETY OF ALL THE 900 AND SOMETHING COMPLAINTS IN FORUMS, I BELIEVE THIS SHOULD BE FIXED. I ALSO BELIEVE THAT MY 2006 PACIFICA SHOULD BE IN THE STALLING RECALL NOTICE AND BE FIXED ALSO. ONE YEAR APART SHOULD NOT BE JUDGED IN A ISSUES. THIS HAPPENS A LOT AN MANY DATES, BUT I CAN ONLY PUT ONE.

I CAN NOT TELL HOW MUCH GAS I EVER HAVE AND HAVE TO CONSTANTLY STOP AFTER A FEW DAYS TO FILL IT BACK UP. I TOOK IT TO ORIELLYS TO LET THEM RUN THE CODE ON THE VEHICLE AND IT SAID THAT IT WAS THE GAS CAP, SO I REPLACED THE GAS CAP AND THEY RESET THE SENSOR AND ITS STILL SAYING THE SAME THING.
