2012 CHRYSLER 300 Complaints

AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATES RANDOMLY. HAPPENS WHILE STATIONARY OR DRIVING. I BELIEVE THIS IS CAUSED BY A FAULTY WIRE HARNESS. CHRYSLER HAS ISSUED A RECALL (13V118000) FOR THIS ISSUE, BUT MY VEHICLE IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 CHRYSLER 300. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAG WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED, WHICH WAS A SAFETY CONCERN. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO VICTORVILLE MOTORS (14617 CIVIC DR., VICTORVILLE, CA 92394, (760) 733-8484) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE DRIVER'S SEAT BACK BOTTOM WIRING HARNESS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 13V118000 (AIR BAGS). THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 70,000.

AFTER MY VEHICLE WAS RECALLED TO REPLACE THE AIR BAG INFLATOR; WEEKS LATER MY AIR BAG LIGHT ILLUMINATED ON THE DASHBOARD. UPON DIAGNOSING THE ILLUMINATED AIR BAG LIGHT, LOCAL CRYSLER DEALERSHIP REPORTED THAT THE DRIVER'S BACK BOTTOM SEAT WIRING HARNESS HAD TO BE REPLACED IN ORDER TO REMEDY THE PROBLEM. IT WAS ALSO REPORTED THAT THE ISSUE WAS NOT RELATED TO THE RECENT RECALL. ISN'T THIS A MANUFACTURER DEFECT?

WHILE VEHICLE WAS PARKED, ATTEMPTED TO BUCKLE DRIVER'S SIDE SEAT BELT, BUT THE SEAT BELT WOULD NOT CONNECT - THE MECHANISM INSIDE OF THE RECEIVER WOULD NOT LOCK THE SEAT BELT INTO PLACE - THEREFORE THE "SEAT BELT NOT ENGAGED" INDICATOR CONTINUED TO SOUND - SINCE THE SEAT BELT CANNOT BE LOCKED/SECURED. MECHANISM IS BROKEN, AND NEEDS TO NOW BE REPLACED BEFORE VEHICLE CAN BE SAFELY DRIVEN.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 CHRYSLER 300. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 17V435000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM); HOWEVER, THE PART TO DO THE REPAIR WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. HKT BIG SKY MOTORS IN GLENDIVE, MONTANA WAS MADE AWARE OF THE RECALL AND STATED THAT THE PARTS WERE UNAVAILABLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. PARTS DISTRIBUTION DISCONNECT.

"TAKATA RECALL" THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CONTINUES TO COME ON INTERMITTENTLY. THERE DOES NOT SEEM TO BE AN ACTUAL PROBLEM. THE LIGHT MAY COME ON AND STAY ON FOR A FEW HOURS OR A FEW DAYS.
