Consumer Description

SINCE DAY ONE OF OWNERSHIP THE CAR HAS MADE A BANG/CLANKING NOISE WHILE AMBIENT TEMPERATURES WERE HOT OR COLD. AFTER A 45 MINUTE DRIVE TO WORK IN THE MORNING THE 2005 CHRYSLER 300 TOURING SST ALL DAY UNTIL ABOUT 3:30 PM) UPON LEAVING WORK WITHIN THE FIRST 100 YARDS THE TRANSMISSION MADE A LOUD BANG/CLUNG SOUND WHEN SHIFTING FROM FIRST TO SECOND GEAR. THE SOUND OF A TRANSMISSION SLIPPING INTO GEAR OR AN EXTREMELY LOOSE DRIFESHAFT. HAS BEEN LOOKED AT BY DEALER MULTIPLE TIMES, AND THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. I OFFERED FOR THEM TO MEET ME AT MY WORK PLACE IN THE AFTERNOON TO WITNESS THE EVENT, AND I WAS TOLD THEY DO NOT DO HOUSE CALLS. I AM 2 MILES FROM THE DEALER. IT IS NOW TWO YEARS LATER, I HAVE 79,000 MILES ON THE CAR AND I STILL HAVE A TRANSMISSION THAT SHIFTS HARD INTO SECOND GEAR. *AK
