Description:
Numerous times over the last eighteen months, our 2023 Chrysler Pacifica PHEV enters ‘Turtle Mode’ where a red turtle illuminates on the dashboard, and the car loses all motive power. Sometimes this occurs on local streets, but most recently it occurred during interstate driving, requiring evasive maneuvers to exit the driving lanes and get to the shoulder before all forward momentum stopped. So far, turning off the vehicle, opening the driver’s side door and re-starting the engine clears the problem temporarily, but yesterday — [XXX] — the vehicle entered ‘Turtle Mode’ eight times during the four-hour car-ride from northern West Virginia to Northern Virginia. Several visits to Chrysler dealerships have resulted in zero fixes as they have been unable to replicate the conditions. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
