The former Chrysler, FCA US, sold 204,452 vehicles in May, up by 1.5% over May 2015 and the best May in 11 years. Minivans were the key, with 10,040 more Town & Country, Pacifica and Grand Caravans sold — enough to cover other sales losses. Jeep set an all-time record for monthly sales...

FCA scored a win on the Ward’s 10 Best Interiors awards ; the Ram Rebel didn’t win, but was spoken of well, while the Fiat 500X was praised overall but slammed for the “tiny,” slow, and “hard to manage” navigation. The Chrysler Pacifica both took the prize, with Pacifica summarized as “It...

Sergio Marchionne’s comments on replacing the Dodge Dart and Chrysler 200 with vehicles made by partners raised some hackles. However, recent comments suggest he was not talking about adding Dodge or Chrysler nameplates onto, say, Mitsubishi or GAC imports. On Friday, Mr. Marchionne said: I’ve...

Recently, Allpar was told that there was one vital difference between our Chrysler 100  rendering (below) and the actual 100, 100C, and 100S: The real car won’t be a sedan. Sedans have been falling out of favor with buyers, just as two-door cars did decades ago. Thus, some sources have now...

Did you want a plug-in hybrid-electric Chrysler Pacifica this year? There will likely be a wait, with production pushed back slightly, to the fourth quarter of 2016. The company’s first home-grown retail-sale hybrid, and the second in its history (after the Durango/Aspen which came from a...

Years ago, Volkswagen made a top of the line car, the Phaeton, and a crossover, the Touareg. When I reviewed them back to back, I realized they were essentially the same — same powertrains, same chassis, same interior — except that one was a tall wagon and one was a sedan. For years, there...

After attending the Pacifica factory launch, Automotive News’ Larry Vellequette noted that CEO Sergio Marchionne had called out the one hundred Pacifica hybrids supplied to Google as just the “first phase” of their relationship. The next phase? “What develops from here? We’ll see.” Applying...

The Chrysler 100 series (100, 100S, 100C) was announced in 2014, as part of the long-term FCA plan. The 100 will reportedly cost less to build than the Dodge Dart,  be much lighter (allowing better mileage and smaller engines), and sacrifice the Dart’s sophisticated interior for something...

The Chrysler Pacifica will be able to drive itself. Google’s Self-Driving Car Project and Fiat Chrysler announced that  the  2017 Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid minivans would be integrated into Google’s self-driving test program, the first time that Google has worked directly with an automaker...

I bought an 2006 used pt cruiser 66 special edition from a regular guy four months ago. After a day of purchased the engine light came on and the car went on "limp mode". I took it to a mechanic for diagnostic and he told me that I have to change the solenoid, and that I can do it myself and...

For quite some time, there has been talk of an all wheel drive version of the Chrysler Pacifica. All wheel drive was dropped from Chrysler minivans many years ago, due to lack of demand. Now that AWD is trending upwards, it has become more valuable, but installing a driveshaft to reach the rear...

Later this month, Chrysler will officially launch minivans at dealerships across the US and Canada. Still, much has been made of the extra cost of the Pacifica over the Caravan. It may be worth a closer look. The base Pacifica LX is $29,590 (all prices include destination), versus the current...

Minivans, long relegated to the backwaters in automotive sales, were the hottest US market segment in March. Year-over-year sales rose more than 39%, with the Chrysler Town & County and Dodge Grand Caravan leading the way. The Town & Country's 148% surge propelled it to the top for the month...

I have a 2001 Cruiser that I bought from a friend last week. I noticed that it did not come with a front license plate, and I just got a ticket for it today. Does the cruiser come with a front license plate, or do I have to install one myself? To my knowledge I thought Cruisers did not come with...
