If you're leaning toward a minivan for your next family vehicle, the 2025 Chrysler Pacifica is the quintessential model. It's loaded with versatile safety, comfort, tech, and storage features so you can enjoy more peace of mind and focus on spending quality time on the road with your loved ones. 1. Stow 'n Go Seats Chrysler's popular Stow 'n Go seat system is standard in the second row of all gas-powered Pacifica models. The 2025 lineup celebrates two decades of this innovative feature, which allows the second-row captain's chairs to fold flat into the floor when you need to haul large loads inside your minivan. When the seats are upright, the storage boxes can be used to keep cargo organized and out of sight, which is perfect for keeping the cabin tidy on road trips. 2. Dual-Zone Climate Control Even temperature-sensitive kids can be kept comfortable in the Pacifica thanks to standard dual-zone air conditioning, which is also voice-activated, so you can easily adjust the climate without getting distracted. The rear HVAC system also has separate controls. 3. Seven-Person Seating The 2025 Pacifica provides standard seating for seven, and every row features comfy seats and plenty of space. Heated front seats are standard for cozy winter drives, and the driver gets an eight-way power adjustment. The second-row captain's chairs are well-cushioned for long rides, and the third-row 60/40-split bench offers 36.5 inches of legroom, so even older kids and adults can stretch out and relax. Leatherette upholstery is standard, but upgrades to real leather in the higher trims. 4. Robust Safety Standard safety features in the Pacifica include overhead curtain airbags in all three rows, plus front and side impact airbags in front. Electronic stability control and four-wheel anti-lock brakes help you keep control in uncertain situations, and all-wheel drive is available to further enhance traction control. The forward collision warning includes mitigation, and blind spot detection helps you change lanes with confidence. Rear parking sensors are standard, and the top two trim levels also come with sensors in front. 5. Cutting-Edge Tech A 10.1-inch touchscreen delivers the Uconnect 5 infotainment system, which includes Bluetooth wireless phone connectivity, SiriusXM, up to five user profiles, and speed-sensitive volume. The standard six-speaker sound system can be controlled via the interface or convenient steering wheel controls. A rear-seat entertainment system with dual 10-inch screens is available to keep kids occupied on long drives and comes with built-in Amazon Fire TV. These versatile features are just some of the reasons you'll love taking your family on every commute and adventure in the 2025 Pacifica.

Pulling to One Side When you hit the brakes, pressurized brake fluid forces the calipers above each wheel to close on the wheel rotors simultaneously. Each caliper contains a brake pad, which is forced against the spinning rotor when the caliper closes on the rotor. The brake pad generates friction, which slows and stops the wheel. If your Chrysler pulls to one side when you apply the brakes, you have a brake problem. The two main causes of pulling to one side are a damaged caliper and a blockage in the brake hose leading to a caliper. Calipers can get damaged by stones or other hard objects thrown up from the surface, and they can also jam if they're rusted. A blocked hose prevents brake fluid from reaching the caliper and causing it to close. We'll investigate and repair the problem. Soft Brake Pedal Brake fluid is highly pressurized to generate the force required to stop the wheels. You'll feel resistance when you depress the brake pedal, and the pressurized fluid causes this resistance. As you apply more force, you'll feel increased resistance. If you feel little resistance from the pedal, this is a sign something is wrong with your brakes. Low brake pressure can be due to a fluid leak, a blockage in one or more brake hoses, or damage to the brake master cylinder that controls the braking system. Since pressure is essential for forcing the brakes to work, low pressure reduces braking effectiveness and increases braking distance, and this can cause an accident. Our technicians will repair the issue, and the fluid pressure will return to normal. Screeching Noises Screeching noises might sound good in a movie, but they're not pleasant if you hear them each time you apply the brakes. Fortunately, this issue isn't dangerous but you need a brake service. As we saw above, each pad has a rough material covering the causing friction, and this material wears down over time. Once the pad material wears down to 1/4":thickness, a pad needs replacement. The pad manufacturers install a warning device inside each pad to alert you the pad needs to be changed. This device is a spike that scratches against the rotor, producing an awful screeching noise. Once we replace the worn pads, the screeching will stop. If your brakes aren't working as efficiently as they should, contact us right away at Fury Motors Stillwater CDJR in Stillwater, MN.

Learning when your vehicle needs different repairs is one of the keys to being a responsible car owner. When you realize that your car needs a repair—such as a radiator repair, for example—you can head straight to your local CDJR dealer to have the problem dealt with before it gets too serious. more How to Tell If Your Vehicle Needs a Radiator Repair from Your CDJR Dealer Your Cooling System Is Visibly Leaking When your cooling system is leaking, sometimes the fluid that's leaking out will make it out of your vehicle and pool next to it. Coolant is highly distinguishable from many of the other fluids in your vehicle due to its bright color and sweet smell. Look out for some red or green liquid pooling near your vehicle before you drive, as this fluid lets you know there's a cooling system leak. Your Cooling System Is Subtly Leaking Not all cooling system leaks are obvious. If you peek under the hood and seed spots of discoloration on your radiator, then your cooling system is most likely leaking, and you should get to the dealer ASAP for a repair. Your Vehicle Is Running Too Hot Always check your temperature gauge a few times during every journey, as this gauge will let you know if your vehicle is starting to run hotter. If it indicates that your car is running too hot, then pull over and wait for the engine to cool down before you continue to drive. If you don't pull over and let the car cool, then you may face a more serious problem. Your Car Is Producing White Smoke If you don't pull over and let your car cool down, or if you don't notice your temperature gauge climbing, then your car will start to produce white smoke that comes from under the hood. It's extremely damaging to keep driving when this happens, as your engine could sustain some serious damage that could leave it beyond repair. Pull over, shut off the engine, and pop the hood so all the parts beneath it can start to cool down. Your Coolant Is Getting Old If you have old coolant in your car, then you should have it drained and replaced as soon as possible. As coolant ages, it becomes brown or black and may eventually turn into sludge in your radiator. This can clog up your radiator and make it difficult for it to do its job, which can then damage your engine, so you'll need both the engine and the radiator fixed. If you have any of the problems described above, then visit Fury Motors Stillwater CDJR in Stillwater, MN at once. Stop by anytime something doesn't seem right with your car.

Keeping your car ticking along nicely isn't rocket science, but it does require a bit of regular TLC. Topping that list? Nailing those oil changes at the CDJR dealership on time. But with cars getting smarter and oil getting slicker, when should you really get it swapped? more Hitting the Sweet Spot For the modern crowd, the magic numbers for fresh oil usually land between 5,000 and 7,500 miles. But, as with anything car-related, it's not the same answer for everyone. Regularly battling dust storms, freezing temps, or towing heavy loads? Your car's oil is working overtime, meaning you might need to change it more often. Don't forget to check your owner's manual for more specifics. Telltale Signs You Need an Oil Change at the CDJR Dealership Too Many Miles Step one: watch your odometer to see when you've reached the recommended mileage between oil services. Once you hit it, schedule that appointment. Oil or Check Engine Light Don't want to count the miles? Don't worry. Many new CDJR vehicles come with some sort of smart monitoring system that keeps track of when you need to replace your oil. If this light appears, go ahead and change your oil. The check engine light can also let you know you need a service, but it might point to a completely different problem. Your Engine's Getting Noisy Oil's job is to keep your engine parts from scraping and grinding together. Hearing increased noise from your engine or a knocking sound means your oil might be on its last leg. Your Oil Is Dark and Dirty Ideally, your engine should always be running with clean, fresh, amber-colored oil. Over time, it picks up dirt and bits of debris from the engine. If you wait long enough, your oil can get so dirty it turns into sludge, which has the potential to do permanent damage. You're Trailing Smoke Your tailpipe isn't supposed to pass anything more opaque than a little vapor. If you're seeing smoke, there could be a problem with your oil. You might even have an oil leak, which can be pretty serious and should be checked out by a professional. Why Bother To Change Your Oil? Oil is about more than keeping your engine purring. Regularly changing your oil has some pretty solid benefits. First, there's less wear and tear. Fresh oil keeps everything inside your engine running smoothly without unnecessary friction. Plus, changes prevent sludge buildup, keeping your engine clean and happy. Finally, clean oil can help your car run more efficiently and last longer with fewer breakdowns. Keep an eye out for your car's hints that it's time for fresh oil to keep it running its best. Call Fury Motors Stillwater CDJR in Stillwater, MN, to schedule your next oil service today.

Without responsive brakes, it's not safe for you to be on the road. It's important to recognize the early signs of brake issues so you can keep yourself, other drivers, pedestrians, and cyclists safe. Learn more about when to schedule brake repair at your CDJR dealer. 1. Unusual Noise Good brakes are typically silent. If your brakes are suddenly making loud noises, such as squeaks or squeals, when you use the brake pedal, then it's likely your brake pads or rotors are wearing thin. Sometimes you may hear grinding noises when you use your brakes. Sometimes the noise you hear from your brakes is because the wear indicator on your brake pads is making contact with the rotor. 2. Vibration When you apply your brakes, your vehicle should come to a smooth stop. But if you feel your vehicle vibrating when you use your brakes, your rotors may have warped. Rotors can warp because of damage from road debris, natural wear and tear, or other factors. A mechanic may be able to repair rotors by resurfacing them. If resurfacing the rotors doesn't fix the problem, your mechanic will recommend replacing them. 3. Spongy Brakes Your brakes should offer some resistance when you use the pedal, so soft or spongy brakes are a clear indication that some part of your brake system needs to be checked. Your brake system includes components such as the brake line and brake fluid, and sometimes issues with these components can impact the way your brakes function. In general, your brake pads should last for about 10,000 to 20,000 miles. 4. Dashboard Light If your vehicle has an anti-lock braking system, then your dashboard ABS light may turn on. When this light turns on, it means the sensors for this part of your brake system have detected a problem. The anti-lock brake system is an important safety feature that prevents your wheels from locking when you initiate a hard stop, which helps you control your vehicle. How Long Does It Take to Repair Brakes at Your CDJR Dealer? If you only need to change your brake pads, then your repair appointment should only take about thirty minutes. However, if your rotors also need to be replaced or your brakes have significant issues, your appointment can take an hour or longer. During your brake service, it's also common to complete other routine maintenance, such as a tire rotation or an oil change. Your mechanic can give you a better estimate when you book your appointment. Brake service is a common routine maintenance task for your vehicle. You may need to schedule service sooner if you notice brake performance issues. Call Fury Motors Stillwater CDJR to book your service appointment.

The headlights on your vehicle help you navigate darkened roads and ensure that you're visible to other drivers. And like most other parts of your vehicle, they need periodic maintenance and occasionally require replacement. The service department at CDJR Fury Motors Stillwater is the best place to go when you need new headlights. Here's what you should know about getting your headlights replaced. How To Tell You Need New Lights If your headlights seem less bright than they once were, or if they have started to blink on or off, your headlights may be near the end of their life and in need of replacement. If your headlights have begun emitting a foggy glow instead of clear, direct beams of light, that's another sign that replacement may be in order. High beams that don't work even if the regular beams do, and headlights that consistently blow fuses are also warning signs to watch for. Scheduling a service appointment at CDJR Fury Motors Stillwater will allow us to diagnose the problem and replace those lights if needed, before they burn out completely. What To Expect When Scheduling Headlight Service During your headlight service appointment, one of our factory-trained technicians will inspect your vehicle and determine the problem. In many cases, a simple headlight replacement is all that is needed. In some other cases, faulty wiring or some other electrical issue may also be a factor. We'll perform the appropriate repair and get you back behind the wheel in no time. If your vehicle needs new lights, we usually recommend having both lights replaced at the same time. Headlights are generally installed in pairs, and if one light goes out, the other is usually not far behind. Having both addressed during the same appointment will save you a trip back to our service department. How To Maintain Your New Lights Most standard headlights last for about five years, but your lights will still need regular maintenance checks. Your headlights can get knocked out of alignment as your vehicle is driven, and the plastic lenses that cover your headlamps can be damaged when rocks and other debris are kicked up from the road. Our service department will check out the headlights on your vehicle as part of routine tune-ups, but you may also want to get in the habit of visually inspecting your lights and looking for any damage. Our service department makes it easy and convenient to maintain your headlights and other parts of your car. We offer a comfortable waiting room and courtesy transportation for customers within a six-mile pick-up area who are having service work done. When you're ready to schedule your next service appointment, call CDJR Fury Motors Stillwater outside of Minneapolis, Minnesota.
