Researching3.. The Murano is certainly a nice vehicle. A good friend of mine owns one and likes it, so I'd certainly give it a try. He, however, doesn't need quite so much room or a third row so it makes sense for him. I believe he's on his second year with it. I'd be inclined--at this point--to wait for it's replacement which is due in a year or two. I would recommend the Pacifica without reservation. Although I've only had mine for 4 months and 7500 miles, it never ceases to surprise me with it's performance, room, comfort, relative economy and handling. For the record, it has been trouble free and my 5 Star Dealer falls over themselves to make sure I knoq to come to them if problems arise. They twice provided me new loaner cars when my Pacifica was having accessories installed that required an overnight stay. Also when it was discovered that it came from the factory with a misshapen rotor. Instead of simply replacing the bad rotor, they replaced both rotors, and the brake pads and discs--fearing that the vibration may have damaged or worn both. Lastly, as a longtime member of this board dating back to 1999, I feel compelled to provide a history lesson. There have ALWAYS been individuals (at least two) who log on with new profiles claiming to be "owners" who complain about how bad their Chrysler vehicles are. The stories are horrendous--translation unlikely and unbelievable. They are easy to spot because they keep their emails private and they create a profile the same day or within a week of posting their "catastrophic" experience. I believe we are seeing one or two of them here now. Your Chrysler will likely be as reliable and competent a domestic vehicle as you'll find. My last several have been. Cheers and happy motoring..! |

| I bougth an 04 2 years ago, its got 47k miles and the only thing I've ever had to do to it was change the oil, put gas in the tank and air in the tires. Be far the best vehicle I've had | |
 well i bought my pacifica used from a rental company which i thought later was a mistake BUT i've owned the vehicle for a year now. Till now not a single problem thank god. The only thing that i wish i had a couple options on it like leather with heated seats and awd fog lights and HID's but then again as far as the reliability this car is awesome. I am loving it and enjoying it a lot. I have the 05 touring fwd with dvd entertainment system. Another thing i like about mine is that since i don't have all the options it gives me motivation to do some more on the car. And every option i put on the car makes me happier even more. So far i upgraded the sound system and got the auto dim mirror next week i'll be working on the fog lights and the auto head light option. as far as american cars go i used to think that american cars were trouble makers too but i had an 02 explorer xlt before my pac and i did not have a single problem with that suv either?these two vehicles changed my mind on how american cars are... i guess it is not the vehicle ... It is you LUCK!!! |
