2005 CHRYSLER 300 Complaints

THE FLOORS IN THE FRONT ARE NOT SOLID UNDERNEATH THE CARPET. THERE'S NO "BOTTOM". THERE'S 7" OF SPACE BETWEEN THE CARPET AND THE BODY OF THE CAR. I TOOK IT IN TO THE DEALER AND THEY SAID THAT'S THE WAY THE CAR WAS MADE AND THEY ARE NOT SURE OF WHY IT WAS DESIGNED LIKE THAT.

MY CAR PULLS TO THE RIGHT WHILE DRIVING. I HAVE TAKEN THIS IN TO THE DEALER THREE OR FOUR TIMES AND HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT ALL OF THE 2005 300S DO THAT. IF I WANT TO SEE IF AN ALIGNMENT WILL CORRECT IT, I WILL HAVE TO PAY FOR IT MYSELF.

MY CAR STALLS WHEN TURNING LEFT AT LOW SPEEDS. THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED I HAD TO PULL OVER AND RESTART IT. JUST MINUTES LATER I WAS APPROACHING AN INTERSECTION AND TURNING LEFT AND THE CAR STALLED. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY ADVISED THAT THEY COULDN'T FIND THE PROBLEM AND SENT ME AWAY.
