What owners wrote
Front right stabilizer broke while driving down street and caused loss of control of vehicle. Vehicle spun to right and crashed into parked vehicle.
While driving 60MPH on I-55 on dec 26, 2017 with my sick newborn baby in the van my 4 month old 2017 pacifica stalled on me in the center lane of the highway. I was not able to press the brakes nor steer the car. I somehow managed to move over to the shoulder by jerking at the wheel I barely made it on to the shoulder and the van shut off completely and lost all power. I called roadside assistance only to sit on hold for over 20 mins. I then called the dealership back and they sent a private tow truck out to me.
