| 2009 | AIR BAGS | TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 CHRYSLER 300C. THE CONTACT WAS DRIVING 50 MPH WHEN THE VEHICLE CRASHED INTO A DEER AND NONE OF THE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE AIR BAG WARNING LAMP WAS ILLUMINATED. A POLICE A REPORT WAS FILED AND THE CONTACT DID NOT SUSTAIN ANY INJURIES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A LOCAL MECHANIC WHO WAS UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 25,000. UPDATED 10/27/11*BF |
| 2005 | POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION | I HAVE A CHRYSLER 300 THAT WITHIN THE LAST 25,000.00 MILES HAS HAD THE SHIFTER FAIL TWICE. THIS HAS RESULTED IN THE INABILITY OF THE CAR TO BE SHIFTED OUT OF PARK TO ANY GEAR. I HAVE FOUND THIS ISSUE REPORTED ON NUMEROUS WEBSITES WHICH LEADS ME TO BELIEVE THAT MY FAILURE IS NOT AN ISOLATED CASE. CHRYSLER HAS REPAIRED THE SHIFTER BOTH TIMES ( ONCE UNDER WARRANTY AND ONCE OUT ) BUT I FEEL THAT THE PART AS BASIC AS A SHIFTER SHOULD NOT FAIL AND POSES A SAFETY ISSUE TO THE CONSUMER SINCE THE FAILURE COMPLETELY IMMOBILIZES THE CAR . *TR |
