A Concerning Safety Issue with the Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid Last week, I experienced a serious safety incident with my newly purchased Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid that I feel compelled to share. Just a mile from my home, my vehicle's dashboard displayed an alarming message: "Stop Safely Vehicle Will Shut Off Soon." Within moments, the van lost power and the steering wheel locked - fortunately while I was already stopping at a stop sign. The vehicle became completely unresponsive. After researching online, I found this was a known issue requiring a specific reset procedure: exiting the vehicle, multiple attempts with the start/stop button, and then restarting. While this eventually worked, both…

I was driving at a speed of about 60 KM per hour .(The vehicle is just 8000 km on it.) The vehicle suddenly gave some sort of warning and engine shut down on the road.,and vehicle stalled in the centre of the road causing a serious safety issue for my baby and toddler in the vehicle. Luckily a tow truck was behind us who gave us some protection by stopping behind us. I turned on and off and after 10,15 minutes the vehicle started again. I am really nervous to drive this vehicle after this incident especially with my kids with me . Please advise. Thank you.

Just bought the car from Bill Luke dealership and was driving it home. Within 15 miles of driving it from the dealership while on the highway the engine just stalled and quit on us. We managed to somehow pull to the side of the road. It was scary to dodge the cars behind us. The car just came back from Chrysler dealership after it needed a idcm to be replaced.

We picked up a new 2024 Pacifica Hybrid Pinaccle with 85 mile on it on the evening of [XXX]. During rush hour on [XXX] in Atlanta on [XXX], the vehicle alerted "Stop Safely Vehicle Will Shut Off In < 2 Minutes". This caused the driver (my wife) to panic as this is Atlanta rush hour. Thankfully she made it to the shoulder from the far left lane before the vehicle shut down - thanks to some friendly drivers who acknowledged her sudden use of hazard flashers and loss of speed. She was able to restart the vehicle after a delay and get it off the interstate. This could have caused a major accident. During her 3.5 mile drive after she was able to get off of [XXX] in downtown Atlanta, the vehicle…

I bought a 2024 Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid Pinnacle [XXX]. On [XXX] I was driving. I was on a busy six lane road when the engine stopped working. The dash display showed a message to the effect of "Stop safely, vehicle engine will shut off soon" [the engine had already shut off when I saw the display]. The battery and engine lights displayed. The vehicle would not start and was towed to my dealership. They could find nothing wrong with the vehicle. They replaced the battery thinking it was dead from the desert heat sitting on the dealer lot prior to sale. The car worked until [XXX]. My daughter was driving, again, on a six lane road, when the engine died. The dash again showed the "Stop…

I purchased a brand new 2024 Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid on September 23th 2024. It was delivered the next day and after driving just for 2-3 miles, the vehicle gave me a warning that the was serious issue and the vehicle will shutdown in 1/2 minutes. I was fortunately slowing down to stop at a light when the incident occurred and barely managed to pull the vehicle over to an island to let the traffic behind me pass. The vehicle wouldn't move at all and there were couple of warning lights on the dashboard including the engine light. After couple of attempts, the vehicle started again and I managed to drive to a parking lot for the vehicle to be towed. This could have been dangerous if this had…
