#2523 of 2571 Re: If not Pacifica, then what? [b25nut] by pssimon May 13, 2008 (5:29 pm)
Replying to: b25nut (May 13, 2008 4:36 pm) I too looked at a Dodge Journey... what a disappointment. Everything about it looks so cheap compared to a Pacifica. The seats look thin and less comfy, the dash looks less classy....everything just seems a step down from the Pacifica.   What a shame... it could have been my answer.
#2524 of 2571 Towing a trailer with the AWD PAC by philbon Aug 04, 2008 (8:07 pm)
I am concerned about towing a travel trailer with my 2005 Pac AWD with 3.5liter engine. I have not acquired the trailer yet so I am doing due diligence on insuring the safety and wisdom of this endeavor.   I would of course get the towing package installed along with the braking accessory. But I am interested in any comments or experiences anyone has had in this area. The trailer would weigh about 3,000# and I plan to drive hundreds of miles each day. Thanks.
#2525 of 2571 My '04 Pacifica has cataracts! by pssimon Aug 20, 2008 (3:06 pm)
Is anyone else having problems with their headlights? Not the bulbs but the plastic lenses in front of the bulbs. It has become very hazy ( and slightly pitted) and I suspect reducing the strength of the light.   Has anyone found a solution to correct this short of replacing the entire lamp housing?   Thanks....   ---Paul in Southern NJ Replies to this message: galneedshelp (Aug 20, 2008 10:05 pm) pssimon (Aug 21, 2008 4:07 am) steelydan (Aug 21, 2008 10:08 am)

Replying to: pssimon (Aug 20, 2008 3:06 pm) I had a similar problem with my '96 Caravan (proud owner of a '04 Pacifica now!). The headlights on my Caravan were SO hazy I was afraid to drive at night. I thought I would have to replace both headlamps which, unfortunately, was over $120! Went to Checker Autoparts and they have a headlight restorer creme that you can rub over your lenses. It costs around $8 ($5.99 on sale). It instantly took the haze off of the lenses, making them in near new condition! Unbelievable! My son tried it on his "96 Mustang and it worked just as well. I still don't understand why they got so hazy in the first place--my car was garaged most of the time. Replies to this message: pssimon (Aug 21, 2008 4:07 am) steelydan (Aug 21, 2008 10:08 am)

Replying to: galneedshelp (Aug 20, 2008 10:05 pm) Thanks.... I found their web page (http://www.myheadlight.com). They say they sell at Walmart. I'll try to check them out.   Thanks again....

Replying to: galneedshelp (Aug 20, 2008 10:05 pm) Down here in Texas, I usually see "hazy lenses" in conjunction with a car that is left outside in the hot sun repeatedly......since yours was garaged, I dunno about that one.   I guess it is possible , if you used the wrong cleaner repeatedly, or lousy carwashes, to "cloud" the lens chemically, I have never read much on the care of these things one way or another.........
#2529 of 2571 Put key remote through washer? by suewho321 Aug 24, 2008 (6:32 pm)
Is it a goner? I will test it in the morning, but just discovered I left my key remote fob in my pants pocket and ran it through the washer tonight. I discover it when I went to take the pants out and put in dryer . If it is a goner, how much is a new one likely to run me? thanks!

Replying to: suewho321 (Aug 24, 2008 6:32 pm) I lost one once and was quoted $130. Replies to this message: suewho321 (Aug 27, 2008 1:15 pm) steelydan (Aug 27, 2008 1:41 pm)

Replying to: caliberchic (Aug 27, 2008 12:39 pm) Thanks! I tried it the next morning, and it worked fine, doesn't appear to be any residual damage! ( Thank goodness, as it was MY key and my husband's 300 key -- and I don't have an extra 300.00 around to replace the 2 keys!) Replies to this message: steelydan (Aug 27, 2008 1:41 pm)

Replying to: suewho321 (Aug 27, 2008 1:15 pm) I have read in other posts that you can order another key/remote fob via sites like ebay and program them yourself for much less than $130. The catch is this: you have to have BOTH original fobs to program a 3rd, for security reasons. So, you can't wait until you lose one to do it.   You can even get a "valet or car repair" key for even cheaper, using this "extra" key for those situations.......
