Chrysler Pacifica: Structure

Affects Chrysler Pacifica · 2017 — about 4 vehicles.

The hazard

On certain Vantage Mobility International wheelchair accessible vehicles built on Chrysler Pacifica platforms, the left and right side rear axle pinion mounting brackets could prematurely crack. If the brackets were to crack while the vehicle is in motion, it could affect vehicle handling and stability and could result in loss of control, increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will replace the left and right rear axle pinion brackets with redesigned more robust brackets.
