Consumer Description

OUR CHRYSLER 300C HAS STOPPED RUNNING WHILE DRIVING AT LEAST 10 TIMES OVER THE LAST YEAR OR SO. ON FREEWAY AND CITY STREETS. IT USUALLY STARTS BACK UP ONCE YOUR STOPPED. MY WIFE IS AFRAID TO DRIVE IT ANYMORE. IT IS A VERY SCARY SITUATION. NO ENGINE, NO PS AND NO BRAKES. NO CODE OR CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. EVERYONE I HAVE TALKED TO WITH A 300 HAS HAD THE SAME PROBLEM, NO MATTER WHAT THE YEAR OR ENGINE. LIKE MOST THERE IS NO SENSE TAKING IT TO DEALER. THEY JUST SAY NO CODE AND GIVE YOU SOME BS STORY ABOUT WHAT CAUSED IT. NO COME UP WITH A FIX. CHRYSLER KNOWS THEY HAVE A PROBLEM AND WON'T MAN UP AND FIX IT. THEY WOULD RATHER SOMEONE DIE FIRST TO SAVE MONEY. IT HAS TO BE IN THE COMPUTER. JUST LIKE TOYOTA AND THEIR FLY BY WIRE THROTTLE THAT WAS CAUSING ALL THE CRASHES. WHAT IS THE PUBLIC SUPPOSE TO DO IF THEY WON'T STEP UP. *TR
