| 2000 | LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES:DOORS:LATCH | MY WIFE PURCHASED HER 300M IN 2003 WITHIN THE FIRST YEAR THE DRIVER SIDE REAR DOOR LOCK WOULD MAKE A LOUD NOISE AND NOT UNLOCK. NOW A YEAR LATER THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE DOOR IS MAKING THE SAME NOISE AND CANNOT BE UNLOCKED UNLESS YOU CYCLE THE LOCK SWITCH AND MANUALLY RAISE THE LOCK. I CONSIDER THIS A VERY UNSAFE CONDITION AND WITH THE NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS I'VE READ SO FAR IT IS FAR FROM A ISOLATED INCIDENT. |
| 2000 | STRUCTURE | (1) MY HEATER IN MY 2000 CHRYSLER 300M COMES ON EVERY 8 SECONDS AUTOMATICALLY. I TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC AND AFTER TWO DAYS, HE ADVISED THAT HE CANNOT FIX THE PROBLEM. WHAT HE THOUGHT WOULD BE THE APPROPRIATE PART -- WASN'T. (2) MY DASHBOARD ON MY 2000 CHRYSLER 300M HAS TWO LONG CRACKS IN IT. THEY ARE APPROXIMATELY 10" (OR MORE) LONG. I AM AFRAID THAT THEY MAY AFFECT THE DEPLOYMENT OF THE AIRBAGS, SHOULD THEY BE NEEDED. I BELIEVE THIS COULD BE A SAFETY HAZARD. *JB |
