2024 Chrysler Voyager
minivan
Small overlap front
The small overlap front evaluation consists of a driver-side and a passenger-side component. If the results of the two evaluations differ, then the combined small overlap rating is equal to the lower rating.
Driver-side
- Rating applies to 2020-24 models
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.

Passenger-side
- Rating applies to 2020-24 models built after August 2020
Tested vehicle: 2020 Chrysler Pacifica Touring Plus 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, available new only to fleet buyers, was introduced in the 2020 model year and shares the same platform as the Pacifica.
Beginning with 2020 models built after August 2020, the passenger front door hinge pillar, A-pillar and door sill was strengthened to improve occupant protection in passenger-side small overlap frontal crashes. (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.)
Passenger-side small overlap frontal ratings are assigned by the Institute based on a test of a 2020 Chrysler Pacificia conducted by Fiat Chrysler.

Tested vehicle: 2023 Chrysler Pacifica Touring 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, available new only to fleet buyers, was introduced in the 2020 model year and shares the same platform as the Pacifica. Beginning with 2023 models, a side energy absorber was added to the front door. Additionally, beginning with 2023 models built after August, a revised latch for the rear sliding doors was implemented to improve occupant safety in side impact crashes.
