I ATTEMPTED TO START MY CAR AND IT MADE A SOUND AND WOULD NOT TURN OVER. I HAD MY HUSBAND CHECK TO SEE IF THE BATTERY WAS DEAD AND HE INFORMED ME THE BATTERY WAS FINE. WE ATTEMPTED TO START IT AGAIN AND YOU COULD TELL HOW IT WANTED TO START BUT WOULD NOT TURN OVER. ONCE I TURNED THE KEY OFF I NOTICED A RED LIGHT WITH A LIGHTNING BOLT IN THE MIDDLE OF BACKWARDS PARENTHESES. )Z( KIND OF LIKE THIS! I NOTICED A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE COMPLAINING OF THIS SAME SITUATION, I'M JUST GLAD MINE WAS PARKED IN OUR DRIVE WAY AND NOT ON THE MIDDLE OF A STREET!

I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK IN A RESIDENTIAL AREA AROUND MY HOME GOING ABOUT 25-27MPH. I CAME TO A STOP AND MY CAR LITERALLY WENT UP IN WHITE SMOKE, LEAKED LARGE AMOUNTS OF OIL AND THAN THE CAR SHUT OFF, AT TIME I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS AND HAVE BEEN TILL THIS DAY TAKING IT TO MANY REPAIR SHOPS TO HAVE WHAT THEY THOUGHT WAS WRONG FIXED UNTIL I FINALLY TOOK IT TO ENGINE SPECIALIST AND SAID ENGINE BLEW. I HAVE NOT HAD CAR MORE THAN 3 YEARS AND CHRYSLER DOESN'T WANT TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT AND REFUSE TO HELP. IT IS NOT FAIR TO US WHO PAY SO MUCH MONEY ON A CAR THAT CHRYSLER THEM SELF TOLD ME WAS A BIG ISSUE IN THE 2005 CHRYSLER 300C 5.7 V8 HEMI HAVING ENGINE FAILURE AND DON'T EVEN RECOMMEND PEOPLE TO BUY THIS PATICULAR MODEL OF CAR.. PLEASE HELP I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO AND THINK THESE ENGINES SHOULD BE RECALLED AND CHRYSLER SHOULD BE FORCED TO FIX THEM.

AFTER FILLING UP WITH GAS THE CAR WILL STALL REPEATEDLY FOR SEVERAL MILES. IT THEN RUNS NORMALLY UNTIL THE NEXT FILL UP. I RECENTLY BOUGHT THE CAR FOR MY SON WHO JUST TURNED 16. THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED WAS THE FIRST TIME HE FILLED UP WHILE DRIVING ALONE. NEEDLESS TO SAY HE HAD NO IDEA WHAT TO DO. LUCKILY HE WAS ABLE TO PULL OFF THE STATE HIGHWAY HE WAS DRIVING ON (3 LANES EACH DIRECTION) BEFORE IT TOTALLY STOPPED. THE POWER STEERING SHUT OFF SO HE HAD A VERY DIFFICULT TIME EVEN TURNING OFF THE MAIN ROAD. IT NOW HAS DONE THE SAME THING FOR THE LAST 3 FILL UPS WHICH WERE ALL AT DIFFERENT GAS STATIONS TO RULE OUT BAD GAS AT A PARTICULAR STATION. THIS SEEMS TO BE A VERY DANGEROUS ISSUE THAT SHOULD BE ADDRESSED.
