The Voyager is covered by two separate NHTSA side-curtain airbag recalls. In the first (2020-2023 Voyager/Pacifica), a side curtain airbag electrical connector that was not properly secured may prevent the airbags from deploying in a crash (only about 3 Voyagers plus ~23 Pacifica… Repairs typically run $0-$0. Severity: high.
Chrysler (FCA US, LLC) recalled the 2022 Voyager, along with other FCA vehicles, under NHTSA campaign 24V436000. The van's radio software may prevent the rearview image from displaying, meaning the backup camera view can be absent when the Voyager is shifted into reverse. Vehicle… Severity: high.
The engine-driven water pump on the 3.6L Pentastar leaks from the mechanical shaft seal, venting coolant through the pump's weep hole onto the timing cover and front of the block. Chrysler acknowledged the pattern with STAR Online Publication S2307000002, 'Suspected Engine Coolan… Repairs typically run $600-$1,100. Severity: high.
The 2023 Chrysler Voyager is on the vehicle list for NHTSA recall 24V199000. Chrysler (FCA US, Stellantis) found that the steering column control module may not have been welded properly. Where the weld is bad, the driver's air bag may not deploy in a crash, which means the van d… Severity: high.
The Voyager uses a shift-by-wire rotary dial with no mechanical linkage to the transmission: turning the knob sends a network request that the transmission control module executes with an electric actuator. When that network path is disturbed, the cluster displays 'Service Shifte… Repairs typically run $150-$600. Severity: high.
The 3.6L Pentastar V6 has a documented valvetrain defect involving the rocker arms and their roller lift pins and the associated hydraulic lifters.
