On the gear shift lever of my vehicle, there are jagged, hard plastic pieces between the leather and the shift lever that continuously cuts my fingers while shifting gears. The cuts are similar to papercuts. One time, a piece of the hard plastic broke off and got stuck in my hand, which required tweezers to remove. Very painful.

RECENTLY PURCHASED A 2013 CHRYSLER 300 THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN HAVING CONSTANT STARTING ISSUES. I HAVE TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO AT LEAST 5 SHOPS AND EVERY SHOP IS TELLING ME THAT MY VEHICLE IS HAVING CODES COME BACK FOR THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION: CONTROL MODULE (TCM, PCM) THE CAR HAS BEEN WORKED ON MULTIPLE TIMES AND I AM STILL UNABLE TO FIX THE PROBLEM. I SEEN THERE IS A RECALL FOR 2013 CHRYSLER 300 FOR THIS EXACT ISSUE AND I BELIEVE MY VEHICLE MAY HAVE BEEN AFFECTED.

I OWN A 2013 CHRYSLER 300C LUXURY 5.7L IT RAN FINE AS OF APRIL 5TH 2021. ON APRIL 6TH 2021 THE CAR SUDDENLY WOULDN'T START. CRANKED FOREVER AND WOULD EVENTUALLY START. HAD 0 OIL PRESSURE BUT JUST HAD AN OIL CHANGE A FEW HUNDRED MILES BEFORE. CODES WERE PRESENTED ON THE ODB2 SCANNER TOOL. THE CAR ITSELF SAID SOMETHING ABOUT A SHORT OR SOMETHING. TRIED EVERYTHING I COULD TO FIX IT AND NOTHING WORKED. EVENTUALLY ALL THE SCREENS AND GAUGES BEGIN TO SEIZE OUT AND THE CAR DIES. WON'T EVEN START. BATTERY WAS ALSO CHECKED AND FINE.

THE ABS CONTROL MODULE FOR SEVERAL CHRYSLER VEHICLES IS UNAVAILABLE FOR PURCHASE AT THIS TIME. THE ABS IS EFFECTIVELY DISABLED AS A RESULT OF LACK OF PARTS. WHEN I SPOKE WITH A DEALER PARTS DEPARTMENT, THERE WERE HUNDREDS OF THESE MODULES BACKORDERED WITH NO FULFILLMENT DATE AVAILABLE. THE PART NUMBERS NECESSARY FOR MY SPECIFIC VEHICLE ARE 68195727AA (ORIGINAL) AND 68210119AB (REPLACEMENT). I AM CONCERNED WITH THE LOSS OF ANTI-LOCK BRAKING ABILITY FOR HUNDREDS OF CHRYSLER VEHICLES.

HANDS FREE MODULE QUIT WORKING, COMMON PROBLEM WITH DODGE/CHRYSLER, AC WILL NOT RECIRCULATE CAUSES ONLY OUTSIDE AIR TO BE DRAWN INTO THE CAB, CAUSE IS MALFUNCTIONING/BAD HUMIDITY SENSOR ABOUT THE RESR VIEW MIRROR, DRIVER HEATED SEAT QUIT WORKING, LEFT HEADLIGHT QUIT WORKING, BAD HID BALLAST. THE GAS AND BRAKE PEDAL ASSEMBLY WILL RETRACT ON IT'S OWN WHILE DRIVING. THE TRANSMISSION W5A580-NAG1-722.6 EITHER SHIFT EXTREMELY HARD 3-4 4-5 OR SLIPS IN BETWEEN THE GEARS CAUSING THE ENGINE RPMS TO GO WAY UP AND THEN EITHER FALLS BACK INTO GEAR OR CAUSES A NEUTRAL AND WILL NOT GO BACK INTO GEAR UNTIL YOU EITHER DROP BELOW 18 MPH OR COMPLETELY STOP AND EITHER PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND BACK INTO DRIVE OR SHUT THE ENGINE OFF FOR ABOUT 10 SECONDS AND START IT BACK UP. AFTER THE FLARE BETWEEN GEARS IT IS STUCK IN 3RD GEAR OR LIMP MODE WITH A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT DTC READ P0730 THROUGH P0735. LITERALLY HAVE TO CARRY A DIAGNOSTIC SCAN TOOL WITH ME TO CLEAR THE CODES. ITS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND ALWAYS HAPPENS IN THE WORST PLACES LIKE GETTING ON THE INTERSTATE OR ON BUSY CITY STREETS ALMOST CAUSES AN ACCIDENT BECAUSE YOU HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO PULL OVER AND STOP NO MATTER WHERE YOU ARE OR THE CONDITIONS AROUND YOU... THESE ARE ALL VERY COMMON ISSUES WITH THIS CAR, IT WOULD BE NICE IF CHRYSLER WOULD MAKE IT RIGHT...
