Replying to: djag (Aug 26, 2008 5:22 pm) djaq: How does one find out this information? On www.airflees.com/ they showed PAC production into May 08. It may be they just left the spot filled. I called Chrysler Customer Care and they say they can not give out that information. I appreciate your help.   farout Replies to this message: djag (Aug 28, 2008 9:52 am)

Replying to: djag (Aug 26, 2008 5:22 pm) djag: I spend some time calling a dealership that sold a lot of PAC's and it took them only a short time to confirm what you have said. The people at the dealership were supprised as well. So you are right on! The information I got before was from a trusted person who is a parts man at a 5 Star dealer, he clearly got it wrong. Thank you for correcting me! I am always able to be corrected, and I sure thank you! How do you get your information? Thanks again!   farout

Replying to: farout (Aug 28, 2008 7:17 am) I tried to order a limited in Feb and was told by the dealer that none were made in 2008 and I would have to find one on a dealers lot if i could. Arrigo Chrysler is the largest in the US and is here in Florida and they couldn't get me one.

Appears previous owner( one owner vehicle) took care of the vehicle. I had my reservations purchasing a used vehicle, but so far so good. Tim

I just traded in my 2005 Jeep Grand Cherokee (an excellent vehicle) for a 2007 Pacifica Limited with Nav and 12996 miles. What a car! Very roomy, comfortable, and quiet riding car. So far, gas mileage on the EVIC is approx 18, much better than the 14 of the GC.   I have the Cognac Crystal Clear Coat and it is beautiful, especially accented by the chrome 19" wheels.   The A/C is one of the best I've had...ice cold!   I think the Nav screen is hard to see in sunlight, unlike my GC and my other car, a 2007 VW Passat Wagon with Sport Package and Nav. The Pacifica nav svreen should be brighter (even though I have it on Max).   I haven't had it a week yet but I am smitten with it.   I was able to get a Replies to this message: farout (Aug 02, 2009 5:51 pm) barberplus (Sep 01, 2009 4:34 am) farout (Sep 04, 2009 9:44 am) and 1 more...

Replying to: woz (Jul 31, 2009 3:27 pm) woz: glad you are happy with your PAC. We have an 07 Pac Touring AWD. Very seldom do we get lower than 22 mpg. We have gotten as bad as 18.5 and as high as 28 mpg, by actual miles driven divided by the gallong. The EVIC is pretty much accurate.   The only issue to watch for is a chugging or as the experts say a "shudder" in the transmission. This happend at 1500 to 2000 in 6th gear. This is resolved by replacing the torque converter. The factory does this free if you discover this. The factories warranty is good until 36,000 miles.   We bought ours new on August 31, 2007, and we now have 48,000 miles on it. We are very pleased with the Pac.   There are a few on this forum that had Chrysler buy back their Pac's because of the transmission shudder. But by far most like their PAC's a lot.   If you are using the 89 octane fuel, you will find that 87 will works just as well. The power of the 4. L engine and the 6 speed auto are a really great combination, and we have never wanted more that this puts out. We have had V-8 engines that were gutless in comparison.   We had purchased a 2007 Jeep Compass $X$ and it was a DOG. Very poor mpg like 22 at the most and fit and finish was beyond poor. We traded it in after 5 months and less than 10,000 miles. The Pac was everything we have wanted and more.   I hope this has helped some, and you enjoy your ride.   jfarout Replies to this message: barberplus (Sep 01, 2009 4:34 am) farout (Sep 04, 2009 9:44 am) barberplus (Sep 05, 2009 9:17 pm)

Replying to: barberplus (Sep 01, 2009 4:34 am) I am asuming you bought this Pac used, and from a Chrysler, Dodge, or Jeep dealership. Did you buy a Chrysler Service Contract? If not and you still can get one do it asap.   Never is the oil consumption you state within Chrysler guidlines!   Did they have you do an oil change and seal the oil cap, and have you drive and come back and check the oil level? If not then go to the service manager and tell him that's what you want to prove you oil consumption problem. If all else fails call 1800 992 1997, speak to to customer care.   By the way how many miles on your Pac? The 3.8 engine is a push rod engine and can use more oil than the 3.5 engine. I think the 3.5 is the better of the two myself. But that is debatable.   Hope this helps, let me know how this turns out.   farout Replies to this message: barberplus (Sep 05, 2009 9:17 pm)

Replying to: farout (Sep 04, 2009 9:44 am) Well i thought i bought the or transferred the warenty but comes to find out that they either never put it threw or are trying to push me over by telling me that my car was not eligible after having my money for 4 months. And i did have the oil monitored and at a quart short at a thousand miles the manager told me to ad oil i laughed he told me i should carry an extra jug in my trunk..... tried calling star no luck.
