Dealer Inventory

Anyone have know where to find a resource with dealer inventory? My brother in law found a database of Tellurides that was populated with dealer side info last summer. It showed production status, transit, and dealer possession. Hoping someone has a similar sheet for pacifica hybrids.

I think my Si-EVT just bit the dust

So out of nowhere while accelerating from a stop the drivetrain starts making this grinding sound. No warning lights, as I drive just a tiny bit more the noise is atrocious, especially when Regen. I think a gear had lost a tooth and maybe bad bearing now. I will try to get a video here in the next hour. So sad...19k miles

Tracking lifetime electric only vs hybrid use

Didn't find this in a quick search but curious if anyone has figured out an easy solution to tracking electric and hybrid use over the life of the vehicle. I know I can see theast 2 weeks in the hybrid info and could write it down but one mess up and it would be off. I also would like to track mpgs but the van is my wife's vehicle and she will not consistently use fuelly or write down gas amount and odometer etc.

Chrysler sales up 18%

Numbers really don't me anything due to inventory and plant shuttering . But 18% is better than nothing . 2022 will be another challenging year in the automotive landscape , and not just because of chip shortages and deployments . Ram pickup beats Silverado as Stellantis U.S. sales drop 2% in 2021 Ram last surpassed the Silverado in 2019 as GM was ramping up production of a new generation of the Chevy pickup. www.detroitnews.com

And you thought your pinnacle was expensive , and that's a 7 seater . People here are complaining about squeaking mileage out of their hybrid , can't wait to hear complaints about poor charging solutions , software services $ and battery fall off when you have 300 mile certification rated .

2022 PacHy erratic engine behavior - coolant heater?

Haven't had a chance to do much digging yet, but our '22 is not behaving as expected. We had a '21 PacHy that ran great for 10K miles, half of it in the winter. Coolant/battery heater is seemingly working. It will precondition while parked, and draw climate power while driving in EV and ICE mode. Temp is synced and set to auto, 72 degrees. The engine will run for a couple minutes, then shut off for a couple minutes, rinse and repeat. Ambient tempt was 20-40 degrees yesterday and today as... 2022 PacHy erratic engine behavior - coolant heater?

Reasons to upgrade from 2020 limited to 2022

Howdy I haven't been following the threads lately but I have a 2020 limited with nearly every option (memory seats, key sense, unconnected / blu Ray player and seat back video screens, 360 camera, roof rack, front seats move forward with a button press). I think it has everything except the moon roof. It only has 4k miles so I should get about $45k as a trade in value. Is it financial viable to get an equal or better 2022 hybrid for no additional money. I'd qualify for $7500 federal... Reasons to upgrade from 2020 limited to 2022

'21 transmission aggressively oscillates during hybrid mode handover

hey all, noticed something strange with the transmission programming on my new PacHy that did not happen on my '18: during the first hybrid mode changeover of the drive cycle, like merging on the highway after refueling (to 75mph or so) or going up hill under engine load, the transmission gearing rapidly cycles between ICE-driven regen and electric thrust at 5sec intervals for more than a minute. It acts completely confused as to what it should be doing, but it eventually settles into the... '21 transmission aggressively oscillates during hybrid mode handover

2018 Hybrid radiator sensor still on back order

Mid October 2021, my 2018 Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid collided with a deer. I was on my way from NY to FL and had to leave my car in Gaithersburg MD for repairs. It is now Jan 1 2022 and I am still without a car. Rentals are scarce and very expensive. I am told that my car needs a new radiator sensor and it is still on back order. I have no idea if or when they will be able to get one. What are my options ??? Can I sell the car back to Chrysler and then buy a new one? Can I borrow a... 2018 Hybrid radiator sensor still on back order

Pacifica hybrid electrical issue survay.

I know this is not very scientific, so lets not go there. This is just for our curiosity / information. Just curious if there is any connection with those having hybrid issues, and driving in rain/snow or car washes. I live in a desert, and may drive in rain once every few years, and drove snow today for the first time in over ten years. While driving today, it had me wondering if there may be some connection. I know back in the old days, there was issues with rain, and or car washes... Pacifica hybrid electrical issue survay.

U1008 code?

Getting conflicting information on what a code I pulled last night and again this morning might mean. U1008. 2018 Hybrid. Popped up when I started it up to move it towards a garage to plug it in. Just did the first real drive with it since the electric coolant heater was replaced ~ two weeks ago. Took the 130 mile drive fine, but the battery was empty at our destination, and Wisconsin was actually getting cold. Might be hearing a fan when it's flipped into Acc, but I assume that's heating...
