2006 Chrysler Pacifica Speed Control & Cruise Problems

SPEEDOMETER IS READING 30+ MILES OVER THE ACTUAL SPEED. ORIGINAL RIMS AND TIRES ON CARE NO TRANSMISSION ISSUES.

MY GAS PEDAL STICKS. WHEN I TURN ON MY CAR TO BACK OUT OF A PARKING SPOT THE PEDAL WILL NOT MOVE UNLESS I PUSH DOWN HARD ON IT. TO AVOID HITTING CARS BACKING OUT OR PARKING LOTS YOU HAVE TO USE FORCE ON THE PEDAL TO MOVE THE CAR AND IT JERKS FORWARD FAST WITH NO CONTROL OTHER THAN TO HOLD YOUR FOOT OVER THE BRAKE AT THE SAME TIME SO YOU DO NOT ACCELERATE INTO A VEHICLE.

THE GAS PEDAL STICKS ON THIS VEHICLE WHEN TRYING TO ACCELERATE. WHEN THE CAR DOES FINALLY START MOVING FORWARD IT "JERKS" FORWARD RAPIDLY. THIS HAS OCCURRED WHEN PULLING OUT OF PARK & ALSO WHEN TRYING TO PULL OUT INTO TRAFFIC. FROM RESEARCHING IT ON THE INTERNET IT SEEMS TO BE A COMMON ISSUE RELATED TO THE THROTTLE BODY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 CHRYSLER PACIFICA. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING IN REVERSE OUT OF A RESIDENTIAL GARAGE, THE ACCELERATOR BECAME STUCK WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 118,000. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 119,500.

THE AUTO SHOP THAT REPAIRED OUR CAR SAID THESE PROBLEMS WERE NOT FROM THE ACCIDENT, WE FIXED THE SPEED CONTROL, NOW IT STILL SAYING WE ARE GOING 50 AND WERE GOING 30, THE SWAY BAR IS NOT FROM THE WRECK EITHER, THIS CAR HAS TROUBLE TOO MUCH AIR IS OUT TOO, IT'S BEEN MONEY, MONEY THANK YOU. *TR

THE MANAGER WAS NOT CARING AT ALL I TOLD HIM THAT I FELT THAT THIS WAS A SAFETY ISSUE AND HE WAS NOT CONCERN WITH THE SAFETY OF MY WELL BEING. I HAVE ALSO CALLED THE CHRYSLER HEADQUARTER AND INFORM THEM ABOUT MY ISSUE WITH THE GAS PEDAL. THIS COULD LEAD TO ME PUSHING ON THE GAS PEDAL TO HARD AND POSSIBLY RUNNING INTO THE BACK OF SOMEONE AND OUR SOMETHING ELSE HAPPENING. MR. MIKE BAYAT WHO IS THE DIRECTOR OF THAT DEALERSHIP DID NOT EVEN GO OUT TO TAKE A LOOK AT THE PROBLEM HE JUST TO HIS TECH WORK AND I FELT THAT THE TECH WAS THE ONE WHO COULD HAVE BROKEN THE LINE. I FELT THAT I WAS TAKEN ADVANTAGE OF BECAUSE I AM A WOMEN, I KNOW THAT THEY MAKE THERE MONEY ON HOW MANY REPAIRS THEY DO. MY WARRANTY COVER THIS PART AND I FELT THAT THE PERSON THAT WAS WORKING ON MY CAR WAS TRYING TO GET OVER ON ME. ANOTHER TECH WAS THERE AND HE FELT THAT THE TECH WHO HAD WORK ON MY CAR SHOULD HAVE REPLACE IT UNDER THE WARRANTY. THIS PART IS COVER UNDER THE I HAVE WARRANTY AND THE MANAGER COULD CARE LESS ABOUT MY SAFETY. I LEFT THERE WITH THE GAS PEDAL STILL STICKING AND NO CONCERNS FROM THE DEALERSHIP. *TR
