Consumer Description

TAKATA RECALL , SO I TAKE CARE OF MY CHRYSLER 300C 5.7 VERY WELL I ALWAYS CHECK THE FLUIDS ON THE COOLENT AND OIL AND CHANGE MY OIL WHEN ITS NEEDED. I WAS RUNNING OUT OF GAS ON THE FREEWAY BARELY MAKING IT TO THE GAS STATION AND I FILLED UP MY GAS TANK, WHEN I TRIED TO STARTING MY CAR IT DIDNT START. MY CAR JUST HESITATED AND I THOUGHT MY BATTERY WAS GOING OUT BUT IT WAS A BRAND NEW ONE AND MY FUEL PUMP WAS CHANGED A FEW MONTHS PRIOR. ALSO I TOOK MY CAR TO GET SERVICED A WEEK PRIOR TOO AT MY LOCAL PEPBOYS AND CHANGED THE OIL PRESSURE SENSOR AT LEAST THATS WHAT THEY TOLD ME WHAT IT WAS. SO MY CAR STARTED IN THE GAS STATION PARKINGLOT AND WHITE SMOKE CAME OUT OF MY EXHAUST AND MY CAR JUST TURNED OFF ON ME. MY CAR IS SITTING NOW COLLECTING DUST BECAUSE IT DROPPED A VALVE DUE TO THE 2005 5.7 HEMI DESIGN. I BELIEVE DODGE AND CHRYSLER KNOW ABOUT THIS MALFUNCTION THATS BOND TO HAPPEN WHETHER YOU TAKE CARE OF YOUR ENGINE OR NOT. I DESERVE TO HAVE A RECALL ON MY CAR , IM ALMOST DONE PAYING IT OFF AND ITS NOT MY FAULT THIS HAPPENED TO ME.
