2006 Chrysler Pacifica fuel/propulsion system problems

“GAS CAP LIGHT ALWAYS REMAIN ON. MY RPM GAUGE IS JUMPING AN ALL OF MY INDICATOR LIGHTS ARE ON. THESE THINGS HAPPEN UPON STARTING THE VEHICLE. THERE IS A ROUGH IDLE AND I HAVE TO PUSH A PINK BUTTON TO SHIFT HERS. THE GEARS WILL NOT SHIFT. I SEE THAT THERE WAS A RECALL FOR VEHICLES OF MY BRAND BUT MY VIN NUMBER IS NOT ON THE RECALL LIST. WHEN I HAD MY VEHICLE CHECKED, I WAS INFORMED THAT THERE WAS A RECALL THAT WILL TAKE CARE OF THE ISSUES THAT I AM HAVING”

“TAKATA RECALL IN THE CARS MILAGE INDICATOR I RECEIVED A MESSAGE READING GAS CAP ALONG WITH A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT THEN I NOTICED MY FUEL RANGE AND GAUGE WOULD READ 200 MILES TO EMPTY AT 1/2 A TANK OF FUEL TO 23 MILES TO EMPTY WITH THE GAUGE BEING IN THE RED, WHEN I WAS DRIVING TO TOWN... WE JUST HAD BOTH FUEL PUMPS REPLACED BECAUSE THE UPPER FUEL PUMP WOULDN'T PUMP THE FUEL OVER TO THE LOWER FUEL TANK THIS CAR ONLY HAS 100,000 MILES ON IT AND WE'VE ALREADY DROPPED $900.00 TO HAVE THIS PROBLEM FIXED ONLY TO HAVE ANOTHER PROBLEM OCCUR... WHEN I DECIDED TO RESEARCH, I FOUND THAT THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS MAKE, MODEL, AND YEAR...CAN SOMEONE PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS....”

“I AM HAVING A PROBLEM WITH THE FUEL GAUGE. THE FUEL GAUGE WILL READ FULL AND WHEN THE FUEL GAUGE GETS TO HALF A TANK THE GAUGE DROPS TO EMPTY. ALSO WHILE FILLING THE TANK THE NOZZLE FROM THE GAS PUMPS WILL ALWAYS CUT OFF, IT WILL PUMP A FEW DOLLARS AND THEN STOP AND YOU HAVE TO PUMP THE FUEL IN VERY SLOW. I HAVE CHANGED THE FUEL PUMP IN THE TANK THREE TIMES AND THE GAS TANK TWICE. NOTHING WORKS THIS HAS BEEN A PROBLEM NOW FOR ABOUT TWO YEARS. I HAVE BEEN STRANDED ON THE ROAD DUE TO THE FUEL GAUGE DROPPING TO EMPTY AND IT IS VERY SCARY.”

“SECONDARY PUMP NEEDS TO BE REPLACED: THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON. THE VEHICLE HAS UNDER 55,000 MILES AND FAILED EMISSIONS TEST WITH THE FOLLOWING CODES: P0457, P0455, P0456. AN EVAP SYSTEM SMOKE TEST WAS PERFORMED AND FOUND A LEAKING SECONDARY UNIT. NEEDS SECONDARY PUMP REPLACED.”

“TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 CHRYSLER PACIFICA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FUEL TANK GAUGE WOULD NOT INDICATE THE FUEL LEVEL PROPERLY CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO STALL EVEN THOUGH THE FUEL TANK WAS FULL. THE VAPE LEAK AND ENGINE WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. THE DEALER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC DIAGNOSED AND REPAIRED THE VALVE, SOLENOID AND A NEW FUEL CAP HOWEVER THE FAILURE REOCCURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 195,000.”

“CAR ENGINE SOMETIMES SHUTS OFF WHEN DOING LEFT HAND TURNS, THE ENGINE LOOSES COMPLETE POWER WHEN THIS HAPPENS. I HAVE TO SHIFT THE CAR INTO PARK TO TURN IT BACK ON. THERE ARE EVAP CODES ON BUT THE CHECK ENGINE DOES NOT TURN ON FOR THESE CODES, SMELL OF UN-BURNT FUEL SOMETIMES MAKES IT IN THE CABIN. THANKFULLY THE STALL HAS NOT HAPPENED WITH CARS COMING TOWARDS ME. THE GAS CAP WARNING ON CONTINUOUSLY EVEN THOUGH I HAVE PURCHASED MANY NEW OEM GAS CAPS. THIS MAY BE RELATED TO: NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 04V113000, 06V432000, NHTSA ACTION NUMBER: EA06013, I INFORMED CHRYSLER BUT THEY SAID MY VIN IS NOT IN THE CURRENT RECALLS AND WAS REFERRED TO CONTACT NHTSA. MY PACIFICA HAS ALSO DEVELOPED A TICKING NOISE THAT HAS REDUCED THE GAS MILEAGE AND ENGINE POWER WHICH I BELIEVE THIS TO BE PART OF AN INTERNAL RECALL WHICH AGAIN CHRYSLER SAYS MY VEHICLE IS NOT PART OF EVEN THOUGH MY VIN MATCHES THE SPECIFICATIONS BELOW: CUSTOMER SATISFACTION NOTIFICATION F35 ENGINE CONNECTING ROD BEARING DEBRIS EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY, ALL REPAIRS ON INVOLVED VEHICLES ARE TO BE PERFORMED ACCORDING TO THIS NOTIFICATION. RAPID RESPONSE TRANSMITTAL RRT #06-025 HAS BEEN CANCELLED. MODELS 2006 LX…”
