Small overlap front: driver-side

Rating applies to 2017-24 models built after August 2016

Tested vehicle: 2017 Chrysler Pacifica Touring

The Chrysler Pacifica was introduced in the 2017 model year as a replacement for the Chrysler Town and Country minivan. The Chrysler Voyager, available new only to fleet buyers, was introduced in the 2020 model year and shares the same platform as the Pacifica.

Two tests of the Pacifica were conducted because the driver door was torn off its hinges in the first test. As a result, Fiat Chrysler strengthened the upper hinge and reinforced the joint between the door hinge pillar and inner body panel in front of the pillar. In the second test, the upper hinge held and the door stayed shut.

The small overlap frontal ratings listed below apply only to vehicles built after August 2016, that is after the door hinge improvements were made. (Information about when a specific vehicle was manufactured is on the certification label typically affixed to the car on the driver door or adjacent B-pillar.)

Action shot taken during the driver-side small overlap frontal crash test of the 2017 Chrysler Pacifica built after August 2016.

The dummy's position in relation to the door frame, steering wheel, and instrument panel after the crash test indicates that the driver's survival space was maintained reasonably well.

The frontal and side curtain airbags worked well together to keep the head from coming close to any stiff structure or outside objects that could cause injury.

The driver's space was maintained reasonably well, and risk of injuries to the dummy's legs and feet was low.

Tested vehicle: 2017 Chrysler Pacifica Touring

The Chrysler Pacifica was introduced in the 2017 model year as a replacement for the Chrysler Town and Country minivan. The Pacifica does not share a platform with the Dodge Grand Caravan.

Two tests of the Pacifica were conducted because the driver door was torn off its hinges in the first test. As a result, Fiat Chrysler strengthened the upper hinge and reinforced the joint between the door hinge pillar and inner body panel in front of the pillar. In the second test, the upper hinge held and the door stayed shut.

The small overlap frontal ratings listed below apply only to vehicles built before September 2016, that is before the door hinge improvements were made.

The driver door was torn from its hinges and the door opened at the front, which shouldn't happen because the driver could be partly or completely ejected from the vehicle. Still, the dummy’s head loaded the frontal airbag, which stayed in front of the dummy until rebound. The side curtain airbag deployed and has sufficient forward coverage to protect the head from contact with side structure and outside objects. The side torso airbag also deployed.

About the small overlap front test

Small overlap front: passenger-side

Rating applies to 2017-20 models built after August 2016 and before September 2020

Tested vehicle: 2018 Chrysler Pacifica L 4-door

The Chrysler Pacifica was introduced in the 2017 model year as a replacement for the Chrysler Town and Country minivan. The Chrysler Voyager was introduced in the 2020 model year and shares the same platform as the Pacifica.

Beginning with 2017 models built after August 2016, the upper hinge of both the driver and front passenger doors was strengthened and the joint between the door hinge pillar and inner body panel in front of the pillar was reinforced. (Information about when a specific vehicle was manufactured is on the certification label typically affixed to the car on the driver door or adjacent B-pillar.)

Two passenger-side small overlap frontal tests of the Pacifica were conducted, one by the Institute and the other by Fiat Chrysler. Ratings are based on both tests.

Action shot taken during the Institute's passenger-side small overlap frontal crash test.

The dummy's position in relation to the door frame and dashboard after the crash test indicates that the passenger's survival space was not maintained well (Institute test car shown).

The frontal and side curtain airbags worked well together to keep the head from coming close to any stiff structure or outside objects that could cause injury (Institute test shown).

Despite intrusion of the door hinge pillar and dashboard in both tests, risk of injuries to the dummy's legs and feet was low.
