Minivans

It is time for the curtain to come down on our Best of 2017-winning 2017 
 Chrysler Pacifica. The minivan had a good run in our hands, but it needs to 
 make way in our fleet for our Best of 2018-winning 2018 Volkswagen Atlas 
 SUV.

Caregivers installing child-safety seats into the 2018 Chrysler Pacifica may

Lexus and Porsche topped J.D. Power and Associates' 2018 Vehicle 
 Dependability Study, but Land Rover and Fiat Chrysler Automobiles trailed.

 room and accessible lower Latch anchors. Little has changed for 2018.

 Not to worry. Here are some of the most significant recalls we covered 
 from August.

For Halloween, most people dress up their kids; at Cars.com, we dress up

 being recalled for a voltage regulator chip.

Approximately 154,000 Dodge minivans and SUVs and Jeep SUVs are
