2010 CHRYSLER 300 Complaints

MY BROTHER WAS DRIVING MY VEHICLE WHEN WE CAME OFF OF A BRIDGE TOO FAST AND TRIED TO TAKE A CORNER BUT DIDN'T MAKE IT WE CRASHED THROUGH A CROSSWALK AND INTO SIDE OF BUILDING AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY WE BOTH SUFFERED CONCUSSIONS, BRUISED BODY, AND BACK. *TR

I WAS BACKED OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY AND PROCEEDED DOWN THE STREET WHEN THE ABS AND ESC LIGHT BOTH CAME ON AT THE SAME TIME. I SAW ON THE INTERNET THAT THIS SAME DEFECT WAS IN 2011 AND 2012 CARS AND THEY WERE BEING REPAIRED. I WAS TOLD BY CHRYSLER THAT THIS WOULD NOT COVER MY CAR EVEN THOUGH THE RISK IS THE SAME. *TR

I WAS TRAVELING NORTH ON HWY I-81 IN STATE OF VIRGINIA WITH THE CRUISE CONTROL SET ON 70 MPH WHICH IS THE SPEED LIMIT. I WAS TRAVELING IN LINE WITH THE TRAFFIC I.E., SEVERAL VEHICLES IN FRONT OF ME, SEVERAL VEHICLES BEHIND ME, AND SEVERAL SEMI-TRUCKS ON MY RIGHT LANE, ALL AS A GROUP, NO ONE PASSING ANYONE, BUT IN CLOSE PROXIMITY TO EACH OTHER, IE., THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME WAS APPROXIMATELY 4 TO 5 VEHICLE SPACES IN FRONT OF ME, THE ONES TO MY REAR WERE APPROXIMATELY 2 TO 3 VEHICLE SPACES, AND THE SEMI-TRUCKS WERE RIGHT IN LINE WITH ME ONE BEHIND THE OTHERS IN CLOSE PROXIMITY TO EACH OTHER. I WAS STOPPED BY A STATE TROOPER WHO STATED THAT I WAS TRAVELING AT 85 MPH IN A 70 MPH ZONE AND WANTED TO KNOW IF THERE WAS A REASON FOR THAT. I EXPLAINED THAT I HAD NO REASON SINCE I HAD MY CRUISE CONTROL ON 70 MPH. HE GAVE ME A TRAFFIC CITATION FOR RECKLESS DRIVING. UPON MY RETURN TO KENTUCKY, I TOOK MY VEHICLE IN TO MY DEALER TO HAVE THE SPEEDOMETER AND CRUISE CONTROL CHECKED. MY DEALER'S TECHNICIAN COULD NOT REPLICATE THE PROBLEM. THEY RAN A 23 POINT CHECK (WHATEVER THAT MEANS) AND COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG. I BELIEVE THAT THERE IS A PROBLEM BETWEEN THE CRUISE CONTROL AND THE SPEEDOMETER. EITHER THEY ARE NOT SYNCHRONIZED OR THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH AN ELECTRONIC SENSOR OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT. I WOULD LIKE SOMEBODY KNOWLEDGEABLE WITH PROBLEMS OF THIS NATURE TO INVESTIGATE TO SEE WHAT CAUSED THIS. I WILL NOT USE THE CRUISE CONTROL AGAIN UNTIL SOMEONE GUARANTEES TO ME THAT THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO PROBLEM HERE. *TR

VEHICLE STALLED FOR NO REASON,TAKEN TO DEALERSHIP AND NO APPARENT PROBLEM EXCEPT NEEDING FUEL WHEN FUEL GAUGE SHOWED 1/4 TANK AVAILABLE .SECOND INCIDENT TODAY 10/29/12 VEHICLE STALLED AGAIN. FUEL WARNING LIGHT DIDN'T TURN ON BECAUSE IT SHOWED TANK HAD 1/4. APPARENTLY VEHICLE NEEDED FUEL. WHEN STOPPED AT GAS STATION. DIDN'T FILL UP COMPLETELY BUT DISPENSER WILL STOP AS IS TANK WAS FULL. WOULDN'T ALLOW TO FILL TANK TO THE MAX. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 CHRYSLER 300. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WOULD STALL WITHOUT WARNING. AFTER SOME OF THE OCCURRENCES, THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT RESTART FOR APPROXIMATELY 15 TO 20 MINUTES.

ON NOVEMBER 09, 2010 I PURCHASED A 2010 CHYRSLER 300C WITH A HEMI. ON THE SAME DAY I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE THE DRIVER MEMORY SEAT WOULD NOT RETURN TO POSITION WHEN THE VEHICLE IS SHUT OFF. THIS WAS AN INTERMITTENT PROBLEM. ON NOVEMBER 10,2010 I RETURNED TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED AND COMPLAINED OF THE PROBLEM. I HAVE NOW HAD THE VEHICLE TO DEALER ON THREE SEPARATE OCCASIONS. REPAIR ORDERS STATES VEHICLE IS WORKING AS DESIGNED, SHUT CAR OFF FIRST THEN OPEN DOOR. IF DOOR IS OPENED FIRST, WILL NOT WORK AND THE THIRD REPAIR ORDER STATES DUPLICATED BY TWO EMPLOYEES OF DEALERSHIP. VEHICLE WAS CHECKED AGAINST STOCK UNITS THEY ALL PERFORM THE SAME EVERY 7TH TO 8TH TIME - THE SEAT DOES NOT RETURN FOR EASY EXIT. I WAS ALSO INFORMED THERE WAS A BULLETIN FOR THIS PROBLEM AND IT HAS TO DO WITH A SENSOR BUT AS OF THIS TIME THERE IS NO FIX FOR THE PROBLEM BECAUSE CHYRSLER CAN NOT FIGURE OUT HOW TO FIX THE FAILURE. THE DEALERSHIP INFORMED ME I COULD HAVE THE REMOTE START BUTTON TAKEN OUT AND USE THE KEY AND THE SEAT WILL WORK EVERYTIME. I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE WITH THE REMOTE START FEATURE AND I SHOULD BE ABLE TO USE THAT FEATURE. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN TO DEALERSHIP ON NOVEMBER 10TH,19TH AND 22ND OF 2010. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 CHRYSLER 300. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HORN AND RADIO CONTROLS ON THE STEERING WHEEL WERE INOPERABLE. THE DEALER ADVISED THAT STEERING WHEEL WAS NOT THE CORRECT STEERING WHEEL FOR HIS VEHICLE. THE MANUFACTURER ADVISED THEY WERE AWARE OF THE ISSUE AND WERE WORKING ON A REMEDY. THE CONTACT WAS CONCERNED BECAUSE HE WAS DISABLED AND NEEDED THE HORN TO OPERATE AS DESIGNED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 5 AND THE CURRENT WAS UNKNOWN. UPDATED 11/03/10. *LJ
