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

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

Replying to: barberplus (Sep 01, 2009 4:34 am) 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
