April 8, 2016 , Auburn Hills, Mich. - The #chrysler brand officially debuts its new "Dad Brand" advertising campaign for the all-new 2017 #chrysler #pacifica today (April 8) featuring actor/comedian/writer/producer #jimgaffigan.

"As the #chrysler brand is reinventing the minivan from the ground up, the objective of our campaign is to challenge the conventional category stereotypes and appeal to a new generation of minivan buyers, including younger families," said Olivier Francois, Chief Marketing Officer, FCA – Global. "To do that, authenticity is key, with real-life language and an endorser, #jimgaffigan, who is a real father of five with a strong point-of-view on fatherhood and modern-day parenting. Here you see Jim and his family leveraging the customer benefits of our minivan to enhance his own "Dad Brand" in a relatable and engaging series of sketches that highlight the class-leading features of the all-new 2017 #chrysler #pacifica."
 
"The #chrysler brand invented the minivan 33 years ago, creating an entirely new automotive category that uniquely addressed the needs of families," said Tim Kuniskis, Head of Passenger Car Brands – Dodge, SRT, #chrysler and FIAT, FCA – North America. "With Millennial families in mind, our 'Dad Brand' campaign with comedian #jimgaffigan establishes that the all-new 2017 #chrysler Pacifica's unprecedented level of functionality, versatility, technology and exterior design again transforms the segment – adding 37 minivan firsts for an unprecedented total of 115 innovations – while instantly adding to your 'dad cred' with not only your children, but also within your neighborhood."

The campaign provides a unique twist on the standard brand spokesperson campaign, showing #jimgaffigan playful with his image, acknowledging the ways the vehicle itself is helping him with the upkeep of his "Dad Brand." The campaign includes appearances by Gaffigan's wife Jeannie and children Marre, Jack, Katie, Michael and Patrick.
