#34 of 2119 re: tow hitch by rickstrat Jul 09, 2003 (3:46 am)
I didn't get the wiring harness as this hitch (for now) will be used for a bike carrier. Looked like the wiring harness was almost $100 from the dealership. I remember when a few well placed splices would do the trick. I did like how the wiring harness mount is tucked up underneath the bumper to prevent damage though. As for the scuff, that was actually the short end of the story. Appearantly, a lot attendant locked our $100 key inside the vehicle. Instead of calling us to get the spare, he used a coat hanger to try to get in. He was successful, eventually, after scratching up most of the driver's and passenger's side interior door trim. Dealership was very apologetic and is fixing everything today and have waved the installation charges for the tow hitch. Cost them over $1,000 in parts (scratched driver's window) including a new interior door panel which cost $800 alone! Makes those $100 keys seem pretty cheep! Lesson to all - don't use a coat hanger to get into a locked car!

ouch just reading your story makes me cringe ... best wishes that it comes out as good as new. Well they should give you a loaner at least with the new coverage...   what do you mean its tucked up under the bumper for the wiring harness. I have yet to see one installed.
#36 of 2119 Weird grinding noise at 40mph by mrus1 Jul 15, 2003 (8:52 am)
I bought my FWD Pacifica 2 weeks ago. This past week it started making a grinding noise at 35 - 40 mph that lets up after you have been driving for about an hour. I took it to the dealer Saturday, 35 minutes away and of course it wasn't doing it when I went there. They checked it over and couldn't find anything and thought the brakes were just wearing in. Has anyone else heard this noise??? Replies to this message: scooter15 (Oct 04, 2005 4:04 pm)
#37 of 2119 Navigation question by pssimon Jul 16, 2003 (4:21 am)
If you look at page 12 of the documentation for the Navigation system, you will see a graphic that shows a split screen display. On the left side, it shows the "big picture" as to where you are along your path to your destination. On the right side, it shows the turn you should make as you get to it.   I can't find how to make my display go into the split screen mode. Does anyone have a clue how to do this? When I give it a destination, I just get a display that shows the upcoming turn, even if that turn is 20 miles away! That isn't very valuable if you are trying to plot your progress.   All help appreciated.

I agree the split screen mode gives you a better picture of the destination. To switch to split screen go to System Settings/Guidance and choose Both (both Arrow & Map screens).

Thanks... that was exactly what I was looking for!
#40 of 2119 Navigation question by russklass Jul 16, 2003 (5:13 pm)
A better solution is to set the display for "map". The map will be the normal display, but when you get close to the next turn, the split screen will display. This way you see the big picture until you need the split screen.
#41 of 2119 Power tailgate by kalathiparambi Jul 17, 2003 (6:47 am)
When the dealer first showed me the power tailgate feature I could have sworn he gave a slight push downward on the tailgate to trigger it to close automatically. I can't find how to enable this feature (if it is a feature) in the manual. Any help?
#42 of 2119 Power Liftgate by ms_mayor Jul 17, 2003 (7:24 am)
Hmmmmm...my salesman never mentioned that a slight push would trigger the automatic closing of the liftgate.   The only way that I know of to operate the power is to push the button on the key or the button on the overhead.   My salesman did say that I could open and close it manually or under power but just pushing closed or using the latch to open.
#43 of 2119 lift gate by cluelesspa Jul 17, 2003 (4:00 pm)
just always make sure you dont forget when you get to hotel and the bellman tries to slam your hatch closed ... not happened to me but could see it happening...
