If I have to complain about anything with my Pachy it's the ESS. I've had my van for 2yrs now and have never gotten the ESS to work long enough to like it or hate it. However, I hate how it can affect the main battery. I'm now on aux battery #2 which I got after the last recall that I thought...

I have a 2019 Pacifica. The ESS light is on. Main battery and aux battery have been replaced. Have driven 100+ miles since changing the batteries and the light is still on. The display shows that battery voltage is 12.7 while I’m driving. From what I’m reading, this is low considering the...

I know there are hundreds and hundreds of threads on this subject, but I haven’t found a similar situation to mine. 2019 touring L Nov 2020, replaced auxiliary battery due to start stop battery protection mode & service shifter message, as well as having to jump the main battery assuming due...

I have a few questions about the ESS (automatic stop start) and the battery that it uses. I have a 2018 Pacifica minivan (Touring Plus) that has been idle for most of the last 15 months or so. It was started about every other month, except for maybe the last 5 or so. When I started it up last...

I have a 2018 Paciifica with over 50K miles, I bought it as an ex rental vehicle last year, hence the high milage. Recently I started to notice the ESS was not working, didn't really care as I don't like this feature. Then my remote start wouldn't always work. Over the weekend I twice had to get...

So, after browsing this forum for several days I cannot find anyone else with this same issue so I decided to create an account and start a thread to see if you folks can provide some insight. The main issue is the car will not start. In fact, the car doesn't seem to recognize that the key fob...

Hi we have 2019 version with ESS. Question is what's the best way to park & stop engine? When stop to park the engine stops and once in Park it starts again unless I disable ESS. Why to put add additional stress to the Start / Stop the engine with no apparent reason. Shall I put to park while...

I found out this weekend that the "service stop/start system" message had been occasionally turning on. Just rolled over 36k last week, of course. My OBDlink scanner couldn't find any DTCs, so I searched the forums and suspected the battery(ies). Put them each on my little charger for a bit...

I must say I am very unhappy. So short version I got a service start stop system message. I took the car to the dealership (Jeep Chrysler Dodge Fiat of Ontario, CA) who had it for a few days. For the record the service department is very courteous but given this is my second time driving the car...

I've done a search and can't find a previous thread discussing the exact same problem I'm having on my 2018 Pacifica. For the last few months I've noticed the Auto Stop is not working. The van runs just fine, no issues at all, but now it never shuts the engine off when coming to a stop. I've...
