Is 310 complaints a lot? They were filed between 2018 and 2026, roughly 39 a year, which is more than the typical model in this dataset. We do not have sales figures for this model, so treat this as a rough volume, not a rate per car on the road. Popular, high-volume models naturally collect more complaints over time.

How does it compare with other years? The 2019 has 310 complaints on file, fewer than the 2018 (869) and more than the 2020 (170). Of the 10 model years of the Chrysler Pacifica we cover, the 2017 has the most (1,521). Older model years have had longer to collect complaints.
