NHTSA Complaint #10210837 — 2007 CHRYSLER 300

I AM A ASE MASTER TECH. IN THE STATE OF CALIF. I HAVE WORKED ON CHRYSLER FOR 16 YEARS. WHAT BURNS ME IS THIS PARTICULAR MANUFACTURER USES A SYSTEM CALLED STAR TO HIDE DEFECTS FROM BECOMING FULL RECALLS TO AVOID COST. I AM COMPLAINING ABOUT ALL DODGE,CHRYSLER 300,MAGNUM,CHARGER 3.5L. THE REAR LICENSE PLATE HARNESS RETAINER CLIP ABOVE THE OVERSIZE 3.5L MUFFLER COMES LOOSE AND THE TWO WIRE HARNESS MELTS TO THE MUFFLER AND CAUSES PARKLIGHT/TAILLAMP FAILURE. THE CONSUMER WILL ATTEMPT IN DESPERATION TO INSTALL FUSES OF A LARGER AMP CAUSING A MAJOR MELTDOWN OF THE FUSEBOX (WIRE DOMINO OF ONE WIRE IN THE FUSEBOX MELTS TO OTHER SOURCES. WELL, I COMPLAINED AND WAS TOLD TO SHUT UP BY CHRYSLER!!! I'VE SEEN SIX TO BE EXACT. CHRYSLER LIKES TO USE THERE STAR PROGRAM TO HIDE DEFECTS THAT SHOULD BE RECALLS!! YOU AS A GOVERNMENT OFFICE SHOULD EXAMINE THIS MICKEYMOUSE PROGRAM. I, AS A VERY QUALIFIED TECHNICIAN CAN'T WAIT TO SOMEONE BURNS TO DEATH IN A HORRIBLE WIRING FIRE. ALL THAT NEEDS TO BE DONE IS A BETTER WAY BESIDES A SLIDE CLIP TO RETAIN THE HARNESS. *TR
