Tl* the contact owns a 2004 chrysler pacifica. while driving approximately 55 mph in the rain, the instrument panel lighting and the abs indicator began to flash. in addition, the windshield wipers stopped working, the vehicle suddenly jolted forward, and stalled. the next day, after restarting the engine, the vehicle operated normally. the failure was not diagnosed or repaired. the manufacturer and local dealer were not notified. the failure mileage was 150,000.
The windshield wipers and electrical systems failed during a mild rain. we got the vehicle to a chrysler dealer and contracted for them to put it on the lift. we've learned that the main wiring harnesses on many 2004 pacificas - such as ours - have collected water for years due to their design on the 2004 pacifica, and have completely corroded. this substantially compromised our safety, as we exited the road having lost windshield wipers, all electrical, etc., we attempted to use the horn which also was no longer working. *tr
