What owners report
I was driving down the highway at 65 mph in heavy 5pm traffic with my boyfriend in the passenger seat, and suddenly, the driver-side sun visor fell off and hit me in the face. I almost lost control of the car. It was hanging there the rest of the drive. I couldn't pull over or anything because of the traffic and no safe place to stop. I had to drive with one hand and hold the visor out of the way with the other hand while trying to also shield my eyes from the extreme sun of that time of day. There is a Chrysler technician bulletin for the Pacifica about the left-side sun visor appearing loose, yet they haven't bothered to issue a recall, and they won't even fix it for free. They want $544.5

While driving on a highway during rush-hour traffic, my car had an alert that said â stop safely vehicle will shut off soonâ I quickly pulled over on the side of the highway and my vehicle completely stopped working within a minute. This all happened in about 30 seconds. I would step on the gas and it wouldnât go even though the car was still on and in drive. It was extremely scary to lose driving speed while driving so fast on the highway out of nowhere. I feel very lucky that my children were not in the car considering itâs a minivan and that I was able to get over to the side of the road. I am worried that if this happens to somebody else they might not be as lucky it was extremel

In my previous vehicle, a 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee, I relied on and received Forward Collision Warnings which prevented my crashing into another car no less than 4 times.
