2007 CHRYSLER 300 Complaints

MY CAR'S 96,000 MILE ENGINE SUDDENLY BLEW A #6 CYLINDER SOON AFTER I DROVE FROM WORK. I HAVE AN EXCELLENT SERVICE HISTORY. NEVER HAD ANY WARNING OR ISSUES. NOW I'M TOLD TO PAY 6500 FOR ANOTHER ENGINE WITH MORE MILES. MY RESEARCH SHOWS THIS AN ONGOING ISSUE WITH CHRYSLER HEMI ENGINES. MY NEXT STEP IS TO CONTACT MY CONGRESSMAN AND SENATOR. WHY HAS CHRYSLER BEEN HELD ACCOUNTABLE?

WAS ON A TRIP OUT OF TOWN AND PARKED IN HOTEL PARKING GARAGE. SHE ATTEMPTING TO LEAVE, CAR WOULD NOT SHIFT OUT OF "PARK". HAD TO PAY A MECHANIC TO ACCESS PINK PLASTIC CLIP IN CONSOLE AND DRIVE HOME THAT WAY. SAW. THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THIS PART ONLINE AND MADE APPOINTMENT WITH CHRYSLER SERVICE. PART HAD TO BE ORDERED . WAS TOLD MY CAR WAS NOT ONE OF THE VIN #S COVERED BY RECALL# K39, EVEN THOUGH SAME ISSUE HAS BEEN EXPERIENCED BY NUMEROUS OTHER OWNERS. PARTS AND LABOR COST OVER $400!

WHEN I WAS DRIVING ALL ELECTRONICS SHUT OFF BUT THE CAR COULD STILL DRIVE.. SO I TRYED TO TURN MY FOUR WAYS ON DIDN'T COME ON I PULLED OVER STILL NO LIGHTS WORKING TURNED MY CAR ON LIGHTS TURNED ON AND MY FOUR WAYS ALSO TURNED ON WHEN I STARTED THE CAR BACK UP.
