2005 Chrysler Pacifica Problems
Ticking Noise From Engine
The engine may develop a ticking noise, often caused by a broken retaining pin on the rocker arm shaft. When the pin breaks, the shaft can spin blocking the oil passage the rocker arms (which causes the ticking noise). The rocker arm shafts, rocker arms, and pedestals (sold as a kit) are commonly replaced in order to correct this condition.
Static Discharge May Cause Problems With Seat Memory/Heater and Adjustable Pedals
Static discharge and/or loose wire connections could cause problems with the front power seat memory, seat heaters, and adjustable pedals. Revised seat modules are available that resist the affects of static discharge.
Check Engine Light Due to Carbon Buildup on Valves
Carbon buildup on the valves may illuminate the Check Engine Light, indicating "Multiple Cylinder Misfires." The combustion chamber must be cleaned of carbon. There are updated valve spring retainers that will help prevent a recurrence.
Static Discharge From Passenger Front Door Handle Can Cause Loss of Funtionality
Static discharge through the right (passenger) front door handle can result in a loss of functionality from the right front door switches, power mirrors, seat controls, and door locks. There is a revised door handle which is more static resistant. A new door module may be needed if the module does not reset properly.
Replace lid spring if cup holder lid will not stay closed
Water Leak Due to HVAC Case Not Sealed at Bulkhead
If the HVAC (heater) housing is not properly sealed at the bulkhead (firewall), water can leak into the passenger compartment. Foam sealant should be used to seal any gaps and the evaporator drain tube can be modified to prevent further water entry.
Check Engine Light due to problem with solenoid valve
A problem with a solenoid valve in the transmission may cause the Check Engine (MIL) light to come on.
The Check Engine Light may Illuminate Erroneously
"False" trouble codes may cause erroneous illumination of the Check Engine Light. Updating the PCM software can often correct this concern.
Drive belt noise due to misalignment of drive belt pulleys
Misalignment of the drive belt pulleys can cause a chirping or squeaking noise from the drive belt.
New IAC motor/software may help starting problems in freezing temperatures
