Maybe we made the right decision in 2019 and went with the Honda Odyssey instead of the Pacifica. The Pacifica is a very nice minivan, except that it has Stellantis Disorder.

Any theories, etc, about why this particular engine/transmission combo is prone to stalling? And why the stalling problem cannot be addressed by dealership shops? Wondering if it is just too complicated of an engine/transmission configuration, and the complexity makes it unreliable??

If chemically contaminated electrical connection is causing higher than spec’d electrical resistance is the reason for the stalling, seems easy enough for a dealership to fix. Or is the problem harder to solve than just fixing this one high-resistance electrical connection? If every time I encountered a high resistance electrical connection and attempted to resolve it via legal action, I’d be in court 7 days a week … lol … I have maybe 20 flashlights, and only one of them works correctly. The other 19 have various high resistance electrical connections.
