2010 CHRYSLER 300 Complaints

830AM 6/2014 I WAS GETTING INTO MY CAR STARTING IT UP PUT MY GEAR IN REVERSE TO BACK OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY AND I HEARD A CRAPING SOUND COMING FROM MY CAR I PUT THE CAR IN PARK GOT OUT LOOKED UNDER MY CAR AND THE WHOLE BOTTOM OF MY CAR FALL IT NEVER HAD A ACCIDENT IN THE CAR SO DID NOT NO HOW THIS COULD HAVE HAPPENED. ALSO THE DOOR HANDLES ARE VERY POOR THEY STATED JUST BRACKEN OFF. I HAVE SPENT SO MUCH MONEY REPLACING PARTS TO A CAR THAT COST SO MUCH MONEY. I HAVE A FAMILY I AM ALSO A FOSTER MOTHER AND I NEEDED SOMETHING WITH LOTS OF ROOM BUT I HAD NO IDEA THAT THE CHRYSLER 300 WAS BUILT WITH CHEAP MATERIALS.

2010 CHRYSLER 300. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO VEHICLE ENGINE SEIZED UP. CONSUMER SEEKS FULL REFUND FROM MANUFACTURER FOR VEHICLE /"LEMON". *SMD

WHILE DRIVING ON MY WAY TO WORK I WAS PULLING UP TO A STOP SIGN BEFORE MERGING ONTO BUSY TRAFFIC ON A MAIN ROAD WHEN MY CAR CUT OFF. I TRIED STARTING IT AGAIN BUT IT WOULD TURN OVER BUT IT WOULD NOT STAY RUNNING. AFTER TOW ATTEMPTS I STOPPED TRYING TURNED ON MY HAZARDS AND SIGNALED FOR THE CARS BEHIND TO TRY TO GO AROUND (AS THIS WAS NOT EASY AS I WAS BLOCKING TRAFFIC). NO WARNING LIGHTS WERE ON, OR CAME ON PREVIOUSLY, I MAINTAINED ADEQUATE 3000 MI OIL CHANGES, AND MAINTENANCE. MEANWHILE A POLICE OFFICER HELPED ME PUT THE CAR IN NEUTRAL AND MOVED ME OUT OF THE WAY OF TRAFFIC AND STAYED NEAR WHILE I WAITED ON THE TOW TRUCK. I AM GRATEFUL THAT MY CAR DID NOT STALL OUT ON THE HIGHWAY WHILE I WAS TRANSPORTING MY CHILD. THE THOUGHT OF MY CAR SUDDENLY STALLING IS FRUSTRATING AND SCARY! WITH THE MILEAGE OF MY CAR, THE ENGINE SHOULD BE THE LEAST OF MY WORRIES.
