I PURCHASED A CHRYSLER 300 ON 11/19/09. I HAD AN ACCIDENT ON 12/10/09. I HAVE LEARNED SINCE THE ACCIDENT, THERE WAS A RECALL ON THIS MODEL CONCERNING THE ANTILOCK BRAKE SYSTEM. SINCE WE PURCHASED USED, I DON'T KNOW IF THIS WAS EVER CORRECTED ON OUR VEHICLE. THE ABS LIGHTS STAYS ON AND MECHANICS SAYS IT IS NOT DANGEROUS, JUST THE CRUISE WANT WORK. WE HAVE CARRIED THIS CAR BACK TO DEALERSHIP SEVERAL TIMES AND SPENT OVER $2,000. ON REPAIRS AND NOW THEY TELL US IT CAN'T BE FIXED AND WE ARE AFRAID TO DRIVE THE CAR EVEN THOUGH THEY SAY IT IS O.K. TO DRIVE. ESPECIALLY SINCE I FOUND THERE WAS A RECALL ON THIS VEHICLE AND I HAD A WRECK. I RAN INTO THE BACK OF A COTTON WAGON. I APPLIED BRAKES BUT DID NOT STOP, JUST SLIDE. *TR

I HAVE 2007 CHRYSLER 300 TOURING. CURRENTLY HAS 30,000 MILES. TONIGHT I WENT TO START IT AND THE GEAR SHIFT WILL NOT MOVE OUT OF PARK! I'VE READ SEVERAL COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE SAME ISSUE WITH OTHERS OF THIS CAR. WHAT IS THE DEAL? MAJOR INCONVENIENCE!!!!!!!!!!!! *TR

WENT TO GET INTO MY CAR TO DRIVE HOME AFTER WORK AND I COULD NOT GET IT TO SHIFT OUT OF PARK. I HAD NO WARNINGS, DROVE THE CAR JUST FINE TO WORK THAT THIS MORNING, BUT WENT I WENT TO LEAVE WORK WAS WHEN IT HAPPENED. MY HUSBAND CAME AND TOOK MY CENTER CONSOLE APART AROUND THE SHIFTER AND HE FOUND THE LITTLE PINK PART INSIDE HAD BROKE. WHY WOULD THEY USE A PINK PLASTIC PART FOR SUCH AN IMPORTANT PART???? BY THE TIME WE GOT HOME EVERYTHING IS CLOSED AND WE CAN'T GET A PRICE ON THE PART YET. *TR
