I HAVE CONTACTED CHRYSLER CORP CUSTOMER SERVICE ABOUT A FEW OF THE SAFETY ISSUES I HAVE EXPERIENCED WITH MY CHRYSLER 300 LIMITED. NO HEIP! I HAVE EXPERIENCED THE GEAR SHIFT GETTING STUCK IN DRIVE. AFTER GOING ONTO A CHRYSLER FORUM WHERE MANY OTHER 300 CUSTOMERS EXPERIENCED THE SAME THING I FOUND A QUICK FIX TO ALLOW ME TO DRIVE THE CAR TO A LOCAL REPAIR SHOP USING A SCREW DRIVER. LONG STORY BUT YES I HAD TO STICK A SCREW DRIVE INTO THE GEAR BOX TO RELEASE THE CAR INTO DRIVE AND OUT REPAIR COST $175 I WAS INFORMED MY VIN WASN'T A PART OF THE RECALL! NEXT ISSUE THE COOLING FANS IN FRONT OF THE CAR. I WAS GETTING SOME FOOD AT DRIVE THRU. AS SOON AS I DRIVE IN LINE I HEARD A LOUD BANG ONE OF THE FANS MOUNTS BECAME LOOSE AND THE FAN BLADES HIT TO...

WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, ALL OF THE GAUGES ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL MALFUNCTIONED AND ALL OF THE WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR SEVERAL YEARS. AT FIRST, IT WOULD HAPPEN AND THEN NOTHING FOR A FEW MONTHS. IT HAS BEGUN TO HAPPEN MORE FREQUENTLY. IT HAS OCCURRED SEVERAL TIMES IN THE PAST FEW DAYS. *JS

WHILE DRIVING APP 55 MPH AT APP 8PM AT NIGHT MY CARS LIGHTS AND ALL THE DASH LIGHTS WENT OUT AND THE CAR COMPLETELY STALLED. I WAS ABLE TO TURN ON FLASHERS AND COAST THE CAR TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. I SAT THERE FOR SEVERAL MINUTES AND THEN THE CAR RESTARTED. FORTUNATELY THERE WAS NO ONE FOLLOWING BEHIND ME. I HAVE BEEN OUT OF TOWN ON BUSINESS AND USED A COMPANY CAR. UPON MY RETURN I TOOK MY CAR TO OUR LOCAL SHOP TODAY. THEY WERE UNABLE TO DETECT ANY PROBLEMS, HOWEVER SHARED AN ARTICLE STATING MORE THAN 150,000 CHRYSLER OWNERS HAVE HAD SIMILAR TROUBLE. THEY CONTACTED THE NEAREST DODGE/CHRYSLER DEALER IN ABERDEEN WASHINGTON WHO OFFERED NO HELP OR INFORMATION. THEY COULD GIVE NO REASON FOR THE INCIDENT. WE HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANY RECALL NOTICE, NOR INFORMATION REGARDING ANY POSSIBLE PROBLEMS. HOW SHOULD I PROCEED? I AM UNABLE...

MY CAR STALLS AFTER FILL UP, ONLY AFTER I FILL IT UP DOES IT STALL NOT AT ANY OTHER TIME.! ALSO MY AIR BAG LIGHT HAS BEEN COMING ON, AFTER I DRIVE CAR FOR AWHILE IT WILL GO OFF, BUT THEN IT MIGHT LIGHT UP AGAIN AFTER DRIVING. VERY ERRATIC! NOW I'M HAVING A PROBLEM WITH MY CAR KEY, IT WON'T UNLOCK MY CAR WHEN I HIT UNLOCK, WHEN THIS HAS HAPPENED I'VE HAD TO MANUALLY UNLOCK IT, THEN IT SETS MY CAR ALARM OFF, I GOT UP THIS MORNING AND CAR HORN WAS GOING OFF IN GARAGE. IT'S NOW QUIET :) CALLING CHRYSLER REPAIR TODAY!!! *TR

VEHICLE STALL AFTER FUELING UP. *TR

AFTER REFUELING THE CAR STALLED MULTIPLE TIMES LEAVING ME STRANDED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET DURING RUSH HOUR. THIS INCIDENT HAS HAPPEN 4 TIMES IN THE LAST 4 WEEKS. *TR

I'M WRITING THIS BECAUSE I BELIEVE THAT THESE 300S WITH HEMIS ARE DEATH TRAPS WAITING TO HAPPEN AND STRONGLY FEEL THAT A RECALL IS NECESSARY. IT'S HAPPENED ABOUT 8 TIMES SINCE WE BOUGHT THE VEHICLE IN JULY, 2013 BUT THE LATEST WAS LAST WEEK, SATURDAY, MARCH 8, 2014 AT ABOUT 11:30PM. MY HUSBAND, MY 6 MO BABY, AND MYSELF HAD JUST FILLED UP THE GAS TANK ON OUR WAY HOME. WE WERE MAKING A RIGHT TURN OUT OF THE GAS STATION AND ONTO THE MAIN ROAD, WHEN THE CAR WENT COMPLETELY DEAD. THE ENGINE SHUT DOWN AND THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP. MY HUSBAND HAD TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND, AFTER ABOUT 3 ATTEMPTS AND A GOOD 20 SECONDS OR SO, HE FINALLY GOT THE CAR STARTED. IT SPURTED A LITTLE BUT STARTED TO MOVE. ABOUT A MILE LATER, WE WERE PULLING ONTO OUR STREET, WHEN THE CAR...

WHILE DRIVING, ALL THE WARNING LIGHTS COME ON AND FLASH FOR A FEW SECONDS. SOMETIMES THE SPEEDOMETER GOES TO ZERO. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING A FEW TIMES A MONTH FOR THE PAST TWO+ YEARS.I SEE THAT OTHERS ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. HTTP://WWW.CARCOMPLAINTS.COM/CHRYSLER/300C/2006/ELECTRICAL/FLASHING_WARNING_LIGHTS_LOSS_OF_ELECTRICAL_POWER.SHTML WHY IS THERE NO RECALL ON THIS? *TR

AFTER FILLING CAR IT STALLED AS PULLING AWAY FROM FUEL ISLAND,RESTARTED DROVE 1/8 MI TO STOP SIGN ,STALLED RESTARTED ,DID THIS 4 TIMES IN A ROW ,DID NOT TRUST CAR FOR PLANNED TRIP,USED OTHER CAR. HAS HAPPENED TOTAL OF 6 TIMES NOW ,IF CAR SETS FOR A COUPLE OF HOURS AFTER REFUELING IT IS OK .ONLY HAS HAPPENED AT REFILLING TANK,WE DO NOT KEEP CLICKING NOZZLE,TO GET MOST IN . HAS ALMOST CAUSED ACCIDENT WITH MY WIFE(HER CAR,LOVES IT ) AFTER FILL UP, CAR STALLED GOING AROUND A TURN AND SHE ALMOST HIT A STONE WALL,LOST OF BRAKES,STEERING. (ONLY TIME IT HAS STALLED WHILE DRIVING.) 99% AS COMING TO STOP, AND ALWAYS RESTARTS RIGHT AWAY. *TR

I WAS DRIVING THE CAR AND THE HEADLIGHTS SHUT OFF, DASH LIGHTS WENT OUT AND WARNING LIGHTS ON THE DASH STARTED LIGHTING UP AND BLINKING ON THE DASH. IN ADDITION, THE GAUGES ALL DROPPED TO ZERO AND THEN RETURNED AFTER A FEW SECONDS. EVERYTHING RETURNED TO NORMAL AFTER A FEW SECONDS EXCEPT THE HEADLIGHTS. THE HEADLIGHTS RETURNED WHEN SWITCHED TO ON INSTEAD OF AUTO (IT WAS DARK OUTSIDE). THIS ALL HAPPENED WHILE THE CAR WAS IN MOTION AT 60MPH. AFTER THE CAR WAS PARKED AND ENGINE SHUT DOWN, I RESTARTED IT AND THE HEADLIGHTS WORKED PROPERLY IN THE AUTO SETTING AGAIN. THIS PROBLEM REPLICATED ITSELF 2 WEEKS AFTER THE FIRST INCIDENT. AGAIN, HEADLIGHTS SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING IN THE DARK. *TR

AS I WAS DRIVING MY CAR SHUT-OFF AND STARTED BACK UP ON IT'S OWN WHEN I WAS STARTING FROM A RED LIGHT. GOING UP THE NEXT HILL IT DID IT AFTER STOPPING AT A STOP SIGN. OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS IT WOULD DO THIS AT DIFFERENT TIMES AND DIFFERENT SPEEDS. AT TIMES IT WOULD NOT START BACK UP ON IT'S OWN I HAD TO TURN THE KEY. EVENTUALLY, IT STARTING SHUTTING OFF AT THE GARAGE I SENT IT TO WHILE BEING RUN ON MACHINES. IT TURNED OUT TO BE A COMPUTER PROBLEM THAT REQUIRED A NEW COMPUTER BE PUT IN. I AM FILING THIS INCIDENT BECAUSE FOR THE 2007 MODEL OF THE SAME CAR THERE WAS A RECALL AND FREE REPLACEMENT OF THE COMPUTER. I HAVE BEEN TOLD BY AN CHRYSLER MAINTENANCE WORKER THAT THE REASON THE 2007 WAS COVERED WAS THAT THE SUB-CONTRACTOR FOR THAT YEAR WAS PARTICIPATING...

I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY ON MY WAY HOME FROM WORK AND ALL A SUDDEN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND THE CAR SHUT DOWN AND THE RPM DROPPED. I COULDN'T STEER OR ANYTHING. THERE WAS NO WARNING OR NOTHING LUCKILY I WAS ABLE TO DRIFT SLOWLY TO THE SIDE AND THERE WASN'T NO SERIOUS ACCIDENT. I RESTARTED MY CAR AND IT DROVE NORMALLY AFTER THIS INCIDENT BUT CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STAYED ON THEN AGAIN TODAY ON THE 24TH OF DECEMBER I WAS DRIVING TO THE STORE AND THE SAME THING HAPPEN BUT AGAIN GOOD THING I WAS IN THE FAR RIGHT LANE TO PULL OVER...IM NOT A ROCKET SCIENTIST BUT THIS ISN'T SAFE TO DRIVE MY CAR AND ESPECIALLY WHILE I HAVE MY KIDS IN THE CAR, SOMETHING BAD CAN HAPPEN. *TR

I WAS DRIVING ON THE OFF-RAMP OF A FREEWAY AND MY CAR ABRUPTLY STALLED. THERE WERE NO WARNING LIGHTS OR ANYTHING. AFTER SEVERAL TRIES, MY CAR STARTED UP AGAIN. APPROXIMATELY 2 MONTHS LATER, THE SAME THING HAPPENED WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY. THIS TIME, IT TOOK APPROXIMATELY 20 MINUTES FOR MY CAR TO START UP AGAIN. *TR

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...

AFTER FILLING UP ENGINE COMPLETE SHUT DOWN , AFTER PULLING INTO INTERSECTION. PROBLEM HAS HAPPENED ABOUT 6 TIMES. VERY CAREFUL NOT TO FILL TANK FULL. AS WE HAVE RESEARCHED THIS PROBLEM , AND FIND THERE ARE A LOT OF PEOPLE WITH THE SAME COMPLAINT. VERY DANGEROUS. DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO BECAUSE, CHRYSLER DOESN'T SEEM TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE PROBLEM.. ANY HELP IS APPRECIATED. *TR

ALL EQUIPMENT ON THE DASHBOARD SHUT DOWN FOR ABOUT 2 MINUTES. EVEN THOUGH I KNOW I WAS GOING SOMEWHERE AROUND 55 MPH, AND TRYING TO STAY WITH TRAFFIC, I COULD NOT TELL MY SPEED, THE RPM READ ZERO, THE GAS LEVEL READ EMPTY, AND MY SPEED READ ZERO. THEN ALL THE DASHBOARD LIGHTS CAME ON AND ALL WAS NORMAL AGAIN. THIS REPEATED MAYBE 4-5 TIMES IN A ROW. OFF FOR ABOUT 2 MINUTES, ON FOR MAYBE A MINUTE, THEN BACK OFF. WE HAVE EXPERIENCED ALL OF THIS HAPPENING MOMENTARILY (MAYBE LASTING A SECOND) SINCE WE BOUGHT THE CAR USED 1 1/2 YEARS AGO. DEALERSHIP COULD NOT GET IT TO HAPPEN FOR THEM, SO THEY COULD DO NOTHING FOR IT. THIS ISSUE HAS NOW ESCALATED TO A POINT THAT I FEEL IT COULD BE DANGEROUS IF IT CONTINUES, OR GETS WORSE. *TR

EXTERIOR LIGHTS FLICKER ON AND OFF EVERYDAY WHILE I'M DRIVING EVEN THOUGH THE LIGHT KNOB IS IN THE OFF POSITION THE LIGHTS WILL GO ON AND OFF(EXTERIOR LIGHTING AND DASH LIGHTS). TOOK IT TO A FEW MECHANICS AND THEY SAY I NEED TO REPLACE THE ELECTRICAL WIRING WHICH COSTS $400-600!! PLEASE RECALL THIS IS NOT SAFE AND I'M OBVIOUSLY NOT THE ONLY OWNER EXPERIENCING THIS PROBLEM,THANKS! *TR

CAR STALLS WHILE DRIVING WITHOUT WARNING. I'VE HAD THIS HAPPEN AT LEAST THREE TIMES AND A COUPLE OF TIMES, I HAD TROUBLE RESTARTING THE CAR. THE UNPREDICTABLE NATURE OF THE PROBLEM MAKE ME APPREHENSIVE TO DRIVE THE CAR ON THE HIGHWAY, OR ON ANY LONG TRIPS. *TR

WHILE DRIVING, ALL THE WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON AND FLASHED FOR ABOUT 2 SECONDS. THIS CONTINUED TO HAPPEN ABOUT ONCE A WEEK, OR SOMETIMES 3X PER DAY. ONCE, ALL THE GAUGES WENT DEAD AS WELL. VERY DISTRACTING AND UNSETTLING WHILE DRIVING. MY WIFE HAD A SIMILAR PROBLEM WITH HER CHRYSLER TOWN AND COUNTRY VAN, AND SEARS SUGGESTED SHE REPLACE THE BATTERY. HER PROBLEM SEEMS TO HAVE BEEN SOLVED. MINE CONTINUES TO BE A PROBLEM. THE FRESNO CHRYSLER DEALER TOLD ME THEY HAVE NEVER HEARD OF THIS PROBLEM, ALTHOUGH THERE ARE MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS OF THIS DISCUSSED ON THE INTERNET. HERE ARE A FEW SITES: HTTP://WWW.300CFORUMS.COM/FORUMS/SRT8-SPECIFIC-GENERAL-DISCUSSION/25584-INDICATOR-WARNING-LIGHTS.HTML HTTP://WWW.300CFORUMZ.COM/SHOWTHREAD.PHP?T=92854 HTTP://WWW.CARCOMPLAINTS.COM/CHRYSLER/300C/2006/ELECTRICAL/FLASHING_WARNING_LIGHTS_LOSS_OF_ELECTRICAL_POWER.SHTML THEY SUGGEST REPLACING THE ENTIRE WIRING SYSTEM AND THE COMPUTER, AT A COST OF $4200.00. PLEASE CHECK AND SEE HOW MANY SIMILAR WIRING HARNESS FAILURES/REPLACEMENTS HAVE BEEN MADE ON 300S AND IF THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM THAT NEEDS TO BE INVESTIGATED AND RECALLED.THANK...

THEY STATED TO ME THAT CHRYSLER KNOWS ABOUT THE PROBLEM BUT DON'T KNOW HOW TO FIX IT. EVERY TIME THEY RESET THE COMPUTER, THE WINDOW WORKS FOR ABOUT 3 DAYS THEN STOPS WORKING. THIS IS GETTING ANNOYING TO ME. *JB

MY 2006 CHRYSLER 300 WITH 6800 MILES ON IT HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP TWICE FOR THE A/C AND HAS NOT YET BEEN FIXED. AFTER TRAVELING FOR A DISTANCE, A/C STOPS BLOWING COLD AIR. THE FIRST TIME IT WENT TO THE SHOP, THEY DID NOT DETECT ANYTHING AND TOLD ME TO BRING IT IN WHEN IT IS ACCRUING. THE SECOND TIME IT STOPPED, I DROVE STRAIGHT TO THE DEALER WITH IT NOT WORKING AND THEY STILL TOLD ME IT IS NOT GIVING ANY CODE TO TELL THEM WHAT IS WRONG SO THEY CANT FIX ANYTHING. THEY AGREED WITH ME THAT SOMETHING IS WRONG, BUT THEY COULD NOT DETERMINE IT. SO I HAVE A NEW CAR WITH AN A/C THAT JUST STOPS WHEN IT WANTS, AND I AM JUST SUPPOSED TO DEAL WITH IT AS THEY WILL SAY. *NM

I PURCHASE A 300 TOURING ON NOV 5 2006. THIS WAS A BRAND NEW CAR WITH ONLY 4 MILE. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON THE FIRST TIME ON NOV 17. I CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP AND TOOK THE CAR IN. I WAS TOLD THAT THEY DID A DIAGNOSTIC TEST AND DIDN'T SEE ANY CODE INDICATING THAT ANYTHING WAS WRONG. THE LIGHT WAS RESET AND THE CAR WAS RETURN TO ME. I DROVE IT AGAIN FOR SEVERAL DAYS AND THE LIGHT CAME BACK ON AGAIN FOR THE SECOND TIME NOV 23 2006. I CONTACT THE DEALERSHIP AGAIN AND TOOK THE CAR IN. I WAS TOLD THAT WHEN THE TECH STARTED THE CAR HE DIDN'T SEE THE LIGHT ON. I WAS TOLD TO TAKE THE CAR HOME. WHEN THE PROBLEM STARTED THE CAR HAD LESS THAN 1500 MILES. I DON'T FEEL SAFE DRIVING THIS CAR. I HAVE THE FEELING THE DEALERSHIP IS...
