Which Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid years should you avoid?

No Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid model year stands out from the others in NHTSA owner complaints. The typical Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid year has 39 complaints on file. The busiest year is the 2018 (133).

What are the best Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid years?

The Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid years with the fewest complaints on file are the 2022 (13), 2021 (22) and 2017 (56). Model years after 2023 are left out: they have not been on the road long enough to compare.

NHTSA does not publish sales figures, so these are complaint counts, not a rate per car on the road. A year that sold more cars collects more complaints, and older years have had longer to collect them.
