2008 CHRYSLER 300 Complaints

I HAD A RECALL TO REPLACE IGNITION SWITCH, HAD IT REPLACED AND RETURNED TO SHOP AND THEY TOLD ME THAT THE STARTER IS GOING OUT. REPLACED STARTER AND THE IGNITION IS DOING WHAT THE RECALL STATED. SOMETIMES IT STARTS ON ACC AND SOMETIMES NOT AT ALL. SO I REPLACED THE STARTER WHEN IT WAS THE SWITCH ALL ALONG.

WE HAD THE IGNITION SERVICED A FEW YEARS BACK THEN IT SAT INOP UNTIL RECENTLY NOW THE SAME PROBLEM WITH IGNITION ONLY THIS TIME IT WONT SHUT OFF

PURCHASED 2008 CHRYSLER 300C ABOUT A MONTH AGO. INTERIOR HAS ODOR OF GASOLINE. I GOOGLED AND READ ABOUT THE ISSUE. SEEMS IT IS NOT UNCOMMON AND SOME FOLKS HAVE FOUND CRACKED PUMP OR A NEED FOR REPLACING THE SEAL OF PUMP. I DON'T SEE ANY FUEL SITTING ON TOP WHEN I PULL UP THE REAR SEAT. USUALLY SMELL AFTER CAR SITS FOR AWHILE THEN SEEMS TO DISSIPATE WHILE DRIVING.. COULD IT BE SOMETHING ELSE IN ENGINE? THIS IS AN EVERYDAY OCCURRENCE WITH THE ODOR.

YOU HAVE A CHRYSLER RECALL P57. THIS EXACT PROBLEM HAPPENED TO MY 2008 CHRYSLER 300 WALTER P. CHRYSLER SIGNATURE EDITION BUT MY VIN IS NOT INCLUDED IN YOUR RECALL. IT COST AT LEAST $1,000 TO FIX THIS OUT OF POCKET. PLEASE EXPAND YOUR RECALL SO I CAN BE REIMBURSED FOR THIS COSTLY REPAIR.

THE IGITION SWITCH HAS BEEN REPLACED FEW YEARS BACK ON A RECALL AND NOW HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM AGAIN. CAR IS HARD TO START
