    My wife got a Pacifica as a rental a few months ago after she got rear ended. That thing was actually pretty nice, had a lot of good features and was really comfortable. Although we didn’t have to maintain it but I was actually surprised at how nice it was

      There’s a reason it’s stuck around. I’m actually surprised by the reliability ranking. They’ve been making that 3.6L/9-speed combo forever and has a good reputation in other vehicles.

        The 9 speed is shitty and Honda stopped using it anywhere possible and fixed the software better than Chrysler ever has. I still love my van but it shifts so hard it feels like I get rear ended at least once a month.

        Yeah it’s weird because CR basically says it has average reliability

        We expect the 2024 Pacifica will have about average reliability when compared to the average new car. This prediction is based on data from 2021, 2022, and 2023 models, plus the Chrysler brand scores.

      We just had one as a rental and it was surprisingly nice. I mean it was a minivan, so tempered expectations, but it worked for hauling 6 people around in comfort. Funny to say too but I have never seen so many Pacificas as I did in Florida.
