Consumer Description

WHILE TRAVELING ON THE HIGHWAY AT 65 MILES PER HOUR THE RADIO AUTOMATICALLY SHUT OFF AND THE BATTERY SAVER MODE MESSAGE CAME ON THE GAUGE CLUSTER. UPON MY RESEARCH I FOUND MANY WEBSITES WHERE OWNERS OF 2011 CHRYSLER 300 VEHICLES REPORTED THE SAME ISSUES. THE END RESULT WAS A BAD ALTERNATOR. THE CONSENSUS AMONG THE COMPLAINTS IS AT APPROXIMATELY 40,000 MILES THE ALTERNATOR GOES BAD. AS OF 05/30/2014 I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO DRIVE MY VEHICLE. I HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THE SERVICE TECHNICIAN DID STATE THAT THEY HAVE BEEN RECEIVING MANY CALLS REGARDING THIS ISSUE. ON THIS SITE AS OF TODAY THERE ARE ABOUT 7 COMPLAINTS WHICH WERE REPORTED RECENTLY AND WONDER IF THEIR VEHICLES ALSO HAVE THE SAME MILEAGE AS MINE. *TR
