| 2005 | STEERING | 2005 CHRYSLER 300 TOURING PURCHASED ON 11/4/2004 BEGAN MAKING A LOUD MOANING, STRAINING NOISE WHEN THE AIR CONDITIONING IS TURNED ON, THE DAY AFTER PURCHASE. THERE IS ALSO A VERY NOTICEABLE VIBRATING SENSATION IN THE STEERING WHEEL AND BRAKE. DURING A/C USE, THE ENGINE HAS AN IRREGULAR IDLE TO AN ALMOST STALL WHEN MAKING TURNS DURING BACKING AND FORWARD MOVEMENT OF VEHICLE AT VERY SLOW SPEEDS SUCH AS BACKING OUT OF A PARKING SPACE. TOOK IT TO DEALER IN SAN DIEGO, CA AND THEY SAID THEY DID NOTICE THIS STRANGE, ONGOING PROGRESSIVE CONDITION BUT SAID THEY COULD DO NOTHING ABOUT IT BECAUSE THERE HAD BEEN NO MANUFACTURER RECALL. THIS CONDITION IS ONLY GETTING WORSE. I THOUGHT MY VEHICLE WAS THE ONLY ONE WITH THIS VERY ANNOYING CONDITION UNTIL I READ AN ALMOST IDENTICAL COMPLAINT FROM A CONSUMER IN MO. *NM |
