| 2007 | SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC | 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 |
| 2008 | COMMUNICATIONS:HORN ASSEMBLY | EXCESSIVE EFFORT IS REQUIRED TO OPERATE THE HORN. THE DRIVER MUST STRIKE THE HORN PAD COVER WITH MUCH STRONGER THAN TYPICAL FORCE, AND ONLY IN CERTAIN , VERY SPECIFIC LOCATIONS BEFORE THE HORN WILL SOUND. IN A PANIC, A DRIVER WILL LIKELY NOT MEET THESE LOCATION / FORCE REQUIREMENTS AND THE HORN WILL NOT SOUND, RESULTING IN OTHER DRIVERS AND PEDESTRIANS NOT RECEIVING A WARNING. THE CHRYSLER DEALER HAS REPLACED THE HORN PAD, BUT NO IMPROVEMENT TO THE HORNS OPERATION RESULTED. THE DEALER HAS INFORMED ME THAT THEY BELIEVE THAT HORN SYSTEM MEETS FACTORY TOLERANCES AND SPECIFICATIONS, AND THEY WILL NO NOTHING FURTHER. *TR |
