CarComplaints.com Notes: Engine cradle rot is a serious problem in the 2004-05 Chrysler Pacifica. Chrysler admits they didn't apply enough coating to the vehicle's sub-frame during assembly, but only offered to cover a very small portion of the vehicles they messed up.
So what happens when your engine cradle rots? Well, the engine could fall out for starters. It could also cause problems with the suspension and other components but did I mention THE ENGINE CAN FALL OUT? The worst part is you might not know because there's no way to see the problem without getting under the car.
If you have a 2004-05 Pacifica, make sure to have your mechanic inspect your sub-frame for rust and corrosion.

I have not had any problems with my Pacifica I purchased it in august of 2014 It is a very comfortable vehicle. I went to start the car and it gave me no warnings when I applied the brakes and proceeded to put the car in gear, that the gear was locked in park and I could not engage it. I tried the recommended reset and it did not work, it only made matters worse. I don't have an extended warranty and the warranty as often does, ran out. I am frustrated because of the way it happened with no warning.
