R25/NHTSA 15V-313 RECALL. I TOOK THE CAR TO LOCAL DEALER 2016. I WAS TOLD THAT THE PART WAS BACK ORDERED. AS OF 2019 I HAVEN'T HEARD FROM THE DEALERSHIP

ON THIS CHRYSLER 300 2005 THE CURRENT SAFETY PROBLEM IS AN INABILITY TO MOVE THE GEAR SHIFT LEVER (FLOOR SHIFTER) OUT OF THE "PARK" POSITION. THE CAR'S ENGINE WAS TURNED OFF, PARKED IN DRIVEWAY OF THE HOME, STATIONARY. THE CAR WAS TURNED ON WITH KEY, STARTED THE ENGINE TO ON, AND COULD NOT MOVE THE SHIFT LEVER OUT OF THE "PARK" POSITION. CAR'S ENGINE WAS TURNED OFF. CAR WAS LEFT IN DRIVEWAY STATIONARY. THIS HAPPENED AROUND 2:30PM IN THE AFTERNOON ON 04-24-2019, WEDNESDAY.

TAKATA RECALL . MY 2005 CHRYSLER 300C 5.7 STARTED SMELLING LIKE GAS EVERY TIME I FILLED UP THE TANK.TIME PAST TILL I DECIDED TO TAKE A LOOK WHY IT SMELLED LIKE GAS.FURST THING TO CHECK WAS THE FUEL PUPMS.FINDING THST THE PASSENGER SIDE HAD A BUDLE OF GAS ONTOP OF THE FUEL PUMP HOUSING .I REPLACED THE RUBBER GASKET BUT THAT DIDNT HELP AT ALL .SO NOW I NEED TO REPLACE THE FUER PUMP BECAUSE IT LOOKS LIKE IT MIGHT HAVE A CRACK SOMEWHERE .

STALLS AFTER GETTING FUEL BOTH STATIONARY AND IN MOTION 109000 MILES

HAD MY SON IN LAW WHO IS A MECHANIC DO A COMPUTER CHECK AND NOTHING SHOWS UP. CAR HAS 38777 MILES ON IT AND GARAGE KEPT, LITTLE DANGEROUS SINCE U LOOSE THE STEERING AND BRAKES WHEN IT SHUTS DOWN, FORTUNATELY FOR ME I HAD A PLACE TO PULL OVER TO GET OFF THE HIGHWAY. CHECKING WITH THE DEALERSHIP TOMORROW TO SEE IF OTHERS HAD THIS PROBLEM. HAD A VERY SIMILAR PROBLEM WITH MY CHRYLER CROSSFIRE YEARS BACK WHERE THE CAR WOULD NOT ACCELERATE HAD SOME CLOSE CALLS AT STOP SIGNS HAD TO REPLACE THE COMPLETE ACCELERATION UNITE HAD LESS THAN 4000 MILES ON THE CAR BUT THE CAR WAS OUT OF WARRANTY COST ME OVER $300 BUT THE ENGINE DIDN'T SHUT DOWN LIKE THIS ONE.WAS ON A TOWN STREET WHEN IT SHUT OFF

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 CHRYSLER 300C. WHILE DRIVING 45 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO COAST THE VEHICLE TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO TWO INDEPENDENT MECHANICS, BUT THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DETERMINED. FAILURE CODES APPEARED AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS RETRIEVED. LITHIA CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM FIAT OF SANTA FE (4470 CERRILLOS RD, SANTA FE, NM 87507, (505) 629-0746) STATED THAT THERE APPEARED TO BE AN ELECTRICAL FAILURE AND WERE CHECKING ALL THE WIRING ON THE HARNESS WITH MULTIPLE CODES APPEARING. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 81,000. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN.

AFTER FILLING GAS TANK, WHEN WEATHER IS BELOW 40 DEGREES F, VEHICLE STUMBLES, STALLS AND IS HARD TO RESTART WHILE DRIVING IN TRAFFIC.

HOOD PROP BOTH SIDES, SAME FOR THE TRUNK, DRIVER SIDE DOOR HANDLE, STRUTS AND ROTORS! HIT IN THE HEAD FROM TRUNK. THIS CAR HAS BEEN SERVICED AND HAS 157,000 MILES2005 HEMI. THIS IS A RECALL ON PROPS FOR SURE! LOOKING TO HEAR FROM YOU SOON!!!REPLACED TIRE RODS AND THE DEALERSHIP SAID I SHOULD HAVE CALLED AND FILED FOR RECALLS.

WAS BACKING OUT OF PARKING SPACE. HAD FOOT ON BRAKE PUT CAR IN REVERSE THE MOTOR REVVING FLEW BACK WHILE FOOT WAS STILL ON BRAKE. I PURCHASED IT IN 2013 THE ENGINE REVS IN BOTH REVERSE AND DRIVING. HAVE TAKEN TO DEALERSHIP THEY STATED COULD NOT FIND ANY REASON. MY FOOT WAS NOT ON GAS AS A MATTER OF FACT I HAD BOTH FEET ON THE BRAKE TRYING TO STOP THE CAR.

THIS CAR HAS A PROBLEM EVERY TIME ITS TIME TO FILL GAS TANK CAR IS RUNNING FINE ONCE I'M DONE WITH THE FILLING UP AND I AM LEAVING THE GASOLINE STATION THE CAR STALLS WITH NO WARNING OR ANYTHING IT HAS HAPPEN EVERY TIME I FUEL UP ONE TIME I CAME TO A RED LIGHT WHEN IT WAS TIME TO GO ON GREEN IT SHUT OFF ON ME AND DID NOT WANT TO TURN ON AFTER LIKE THE 5TH TRY. I HAVE TRIED CALLING CHRYSLER DEALERS BUT SAID MY VIN NUMBER IS NOT ON THE RECALL CARS.

STEERING BINDS AND HAS TO MANUALLY TURNED TO BRING THE SPRING LOADED STEERING BACK TO CENTER POSITION AFTER MAKING LEFT OR RIGHT TURNS AND WHILE DRIVING. POWER STEERING PUMP APPEARS TO BE FUNCTIONING PROPERLY, BUT THE STEERING WHEEL STILL BINDS UP WHEN DRIVING ON ROADWAYS AND WHEN ATTEMPTING TO PARK IN PARKING SPACES.

NHTSA THROUGH MAIL ADVISED US TO TAKE CAR TO A CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP AND HAVE THEM CHANGE AIRBAGS. WE DID. JUNE 14,2018. ON NOVEMBER 3,2018 WHEN PULLING INTO A PARKING SPOT THE AIRBAG ON THE STEERING WHEEL BLEW UP IN MY FACE INJURING ME AND BURNED ME AND CUT ME. PARAMEDICS CAME AND I WENT TO EMERGENCY ROOM. NOT LIFE THREATENING BUT 2 WEEKS IN PAIN AND NOT ABLE TO WORK AND RINGING IN MY EARS FOR A WEEK. MY CAR INSURANCE CAN'T DO ANYTHING BECAUSE THERE WAS NO COLLUSION, IT WENT OFF ON ITS OWN, AND IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE REPLACED AS DEALERSHIP SAID. THE AIRBAG WENT OFF WHEN CAR WAS TURNING INTO A PARKING SPOT SLOWLY IN MOTION.

WHEN DRIVING THE CAR ON THE CITY STREET (OR ANYWHERE), IT JERKS VIOLENTLY AS IT SHIFTS FROM FIRST GEAR INTO SECOND GEAR. ACCORDING TO THE DEALERSHIP, THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE THAT REQUIRES A SOFTWARE UPDATE THAT WAS RELEASED BACK IN 2006. BUT OF COURSE, NO RECALL WAS ISSUED AND I WAS NEVER MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE BY THE MANUFACTURER OR THE DEALERSHIP (EVEN THOUGHT I'VE OWNED THE CAR FOR 11 YEARS).

VEHICLE STALLS EVERY TIME AFTER FILLING UP GAS TANK. STALLS WHEN DRIVING SLOWLY OR AT IDLE WHEN TURNING EX. WHEN TURNING AT INTERSECTION OR TURNING INTO DRIVEWAY. THIS IS A DEFINITE SAFETY ISSUE AS THE CAR CAN SHUT OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF A BUSY INTERSECTION AND COULD POSSIBLY CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. VEHICLE CAN SOMETIMES BE TURNED ON RIGHT AFTER IT HAS SHUT OFF OR CAN TAKE UP TO 10 MINUTES FOR IT TO CRANK UP. 10 MINUTES IN A BUSY INTERSECTION IS A LONG TIME WAITING FOR A VEHICLE TO CRANK UP.

THE MAIN GROUNDING WIRE PASSENGER-SIDE ENGINE BLOCK CONTACT POINT HAD CORROSION(RUST) LIMITING ELECTRICAL CURRENT FLOW TO THE WIRING HARNESS. THIS CAUSED TOO MUCH CURRENT TO FLOW TO 2 SMALLER 16 GAUGE GROUNDING WIRES ATTACHED TO THE REAR OF EACH HEMI CYLINDER HEAD TO FRY. THIS DIRECTLY AFFECTS THE CCN BUS COMMUNICATIONS TO THE CPU. ANY DEVICE, MODULE, OR SENSOR ATTACHED TO THE CCN BUS CAN HAVE INTERMITTENT BEHAVIOR. EXAMPLES OF VERY BAD BEHAVIOR IN MY CAR: 1. THE ALARM RANDOMLY GOING OFF WHILE PARKED OR WHEN DRIVING THE CAR. 2. WHILE PARKED AND THE ALARM SET THE SUNROOF DECIDED TO OPEN UP DURING A RAINSTORM FILLING MY CAR WITH 3 INCHES OF RAIN. 3. THE 300C DOESN'T USE A THROTTLE CABLE. IT UTILIZES A THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR THAT COMMUNICATES WITH THE CPU OVER THE CCN BUS. JUST TOUCHING THE GAS PEDAL WAS THE SAME AS PRESSING THE GAS PEDAL TO THE FLOOR. IT'S A GOOD THING THAT WHEN THIS HAPPENED TO ME THERE WAS NO TRAFFIC ON THE ROAD AND I WAS CLOSE TO HOME. SINCE THIS IS CCN 2-WIRE TWISTED PAIR BUS COMMUNICATION ISSUE ANYTHING THAT COMMUNICATES WITH THE CPU CAN HAVE A RANDOM INTERMITTENT PROBLEM. SINCE THESE CARS ARE GETTING OLDER I HAVE TO THINK THAT THERE ARE OTHER CARS THAT ARE OR WILL HAVE SIMILAR ISSUES. PRAY TO GOD THAT YOUR THROTTLE DOESN'T STICK WIDE OPEN LIKE MINE DID. I HAD TO KEEP MY FOOT BURIED ON THE BRAKE WHILE I WAS SCREAMING DOWN THE ROAD UNTIL I WAS ABLE TO TURN OFF THE IGNITION. HAVE FUN COMING TO A STOP OR DRIVING HOME AFTER THAT HAPPENS. FORMALLY I WAS AN I2C BUS COMMUNICATIONS(2 WIRE BUS) EXPERT AT BOTH INTEL CORP AND CISCO SYSTEMS. I KNOW WHAT I AM TALKING ABOUT. TODAY I TALKED WITH A BREMERTON CHRYSLER/DODGE/JEEP TECHNICAL SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE ABOUT THIS ISSUE. BOTTOM-LINE OVER $3000 TO FIX. THERE MAY HAVE BEEN SOMEBODY SOMEWHERE THAT IS DEAD BECAUSE OF THIS FACTORY DEFECT AND NO ONE IS THE WISER. WHY NOT A FACTORY RECALL ISSUE?

ON MY CAR WHEN THE GAS TANK IS AUTO FILLED ALL THE WAY, UNTIL IT CLICKS, THEN IT STALLS OUT WHILE DRIVING AND IS VERY HARD TO RESTART SINCE THE VEHICLE HAS TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP BEFORE YOU CAN ATTEMPT TO RESTART.THIS HAS HAPPENED AT LEAST 10 TIMES. THE LAST TIME WAS WHILE ATTEMPTING TO MAKE A LEFT HAND TURN ONTO ROUTE 29, WITHIN MINUTES OF HAVING LEFT THE GAS STATION, AND I LOST CONTROL OF MY STEERING DUE TO THE FACT THAT THE CAR WAS NOT RUNNING ANY MORE. I WAS LUCKY I WASN'T HIT BY ANOTHER CAR WHEN COASTING IT PARTLY OFF THE ROAD. SINCE THEN, I HAVE LEARNED, AS LONG AS I DON'T FILL THE TANK ALL THE WAY FULL THE STALL OUTS DON'T HAPPEN.

RECALL R25 AND S43. ARE GOOD RECALLS. THE PROBLEM IS THIS VEHICLE DOES NOT BELONG TO ME AND FOR THE LAST 2 YEARS I HAVE BEEN GETTING THE RECALL INFO SENT TO ME. THIS IS THE FOURTH TIME I HAVE CONTACTED FCA ABOUT THIS ISSUE, THRU E-MAILS, AND PHONE CALLS, AND STILL IT HAS NOT BEEN RESOLVED.

THE CHRYSLER JUST CUTS OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HIGHWAY MAKING A LEFT TURN WITHOUT WARNING OR CHECK ENGINE LIGHT DUE TO ENGINE FAILURE.

MY CAR STALLS WHILE DRIVING PERIODICALLY STALLS WHEN THE CAR IS AT IDLE. IT EVEN STALLLS GOING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AT SPEEDS 65. WE HAVE CHANGED EVERYTHING POSSIBLE EXCEPT THE ENGINE. THE CAR STARTS RIGHT UP AFTER STALL BUT WILL STALL IN TRAFFIC. I HAVE LOOKED AT MANY FORUMS AND THEY ALL SAY THE SAME THING NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS OF CAR SHUTTING OFF WHILE DRIVING.

THE SHIFTER IS STUCK IN PARK? THIS STARTED OFF HAPPENING ON OCCASION. BUT NOW HAS PROGRESSED TO ALMOST A PERMANENT SITUATION. THIS CAUSES A HAZARD BECAUSE IN ORDER TO NOT BEING ABLE TO AVOID BEING STRANDED. I HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO LEAVE THE VEHICLE IN NEUTRAL AND PUT ON THE PARKING BRAKE. RUNNING THE RISK OF THE CAR ROLLING AND CAUSING A COLLISION. CRYSLER NEEDS TO ADDRESS THIS SITUATION. AS I'M AWARE THAT IT'S A DEFECTIVE PLASTIC PART CAUSING THIS PROBLEM. IT IS ALSO A PROBLEM THAT SPANS FOR SEVERAL YEARS OF THIS SHIFTING SYSTEM.

TAKATA RECALL - SHIFT LOCK SOLENOID, IT'S PLASTIC AND BREAKS, CAR WAS STATIONARY.

THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTER LEVER WAS STUCK IN PARK AND WOULD NOT MOVE. THE DEALER SAYS I NEED A NEW SHIFTER. THIS PROBLEM SEEMS IDENTICAL TO RECALL K39 TRANSMISSION SHIFTER INTERLOCK LEVER BUT FOR SOME REASON MY CAR IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECAL. I SUSPECT THIS IS AN OVERSIGHT.

CHRONIC ODOR OF RAW FUE BOTH WITHIN AND AROUND THE VEHICLE .. DIFFICULT TO ISOLATE. WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN AN ENCLOSED SPACE THE FUMES ARE OVERPOWERING AND EXTREMELY FLAMMABLE. I HAVE BEEN ABLE TO IDENTIFY THE SOURCE TO A CONNECTOR ON THE FUEL LINE.. THIS IS CLEARLY A POOR ENGINEERING DESIGN WHICH, WHILE EXPEDIENT IN MANUFACTURING IS HAZARDOUS TO OWNERS AS FUEL IS EXPELLED ONTO THE ADJACENT EXHAUST SYSTEM

I was very excited to purchase my 2005 Chrysler 300C, but there was a recall on the airbag which was taken into the dealer and replace but my grandson had accident in March 2018 and the airbag didn’t disengage. I contact the customer service and they said that I should have contact them before the car was removed from the wrecker company but I wasn’t aware that I to notify them. I send them picture of the car and the insurance adjuster can verify that the airbag didn’t disengaged. I'm writing to express my dissatisfaction with the process for recall failure and how to report the incident. Thank you for listening but I have contact a lawyer.

CAR SHUTS OFF AFTER FILLING, WAS JUST EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE STARTING 2 YEARS AGO, BUT NOW IT SHUTS OFF AFTER EVERY FILL UP, AND WHEN IT SHUTS OFF THEN THERE IS NO POWER STEERING. WILL SHUT OFF AS SOON AS I LEAVE THE GAS STATION, AND WILL CONTINUE EVERY TIME I SLOW DOWN, FOR APPROX.10 MILES. AFTER BEING REAR ENDED IN TRAFFIC AT A STOP LIGHT, DUE TO I STARTED TO MOVE AND THE CAR SHUT OFF, BUT THE PERSON BEHIND ME DIDN'T REALIZE MY CAR QUIT AND LIGHTLY HIT ME. I HAVE LEARNED THAT I CAN NO LONGER FILL UP AT ANY GAS STATION, I HAVE TO FILL UP WHERE I KNOW I CAN JUST DRIVE WITHOUT SLOWING DOWN FOR ABOUT 10 MILES. THE CAR WILL STILL SHUDDER LIKE IT ISN'T GETTING GAS, BUT HAVE BEEN ABLE TO KEEP IT FROM SHUTTING OFF TOTALLY AND TRYING TO AVOID BEING REAR ENDED AGAIN. I WORRY WHAT DAMAGE IS BEING DONE TO THE REST OF MY CAR WHEN IT SHUDDERS LIKE THAT THOUGH. I SEE THAT THERE IS A LOT OF OTHER 2005 300C OWNERS HAVING THIS SAME PROBLEM, BUT NO RECALL HAS HAPPENED YET. HOPE THE RECALL HAPPENS BEFORE SOMEONE GETS KILLED DUE TO THIS MALFUNCTION.

THE VEHICLE STALLED WHILE DRIVING RENDERING IT UNCONTROLLABLE AND WITH NO POWER ON THE HIGHWAY WITH SPEEDS OF 55 AND OVER WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE HAS NOT STARTED SINCE THE ONSET OF THE ISSUE. AFTER MANY COSTLY REPAIRS, MY MECHANIC HAS LABELLED THE ISSUE AS A BAD/MALFUNCTIONING POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE. THE FUEL PUMP, SENDING UNIT, AND CRANK SENSOR HAVE BEEN REPLACED WITH NO CHANGE. THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE FOR THIS SPECIFIC MODEL. IT HAS NOT STARTED SINCE NOVEMBER OF LAST YEAR.

THIS ISN'T THE FIRST TIME THE CAR JUST SHUTS DOWN WHEN U FILL THE GAS TANK ALL THE WAY UP. I FILLED THE TANK AND PROCEEDED TO DRIVE AND MERGE ON TO HIGHWAY AND WITHOUT ANY LIGHTS OR WARNING THE CAR JUST SHUTS OFF ON THE HIGHWAY WHILE DOING 65. I LOST POWER AND THE VEHICLE IS HAD TO CONTROL. IT TOOK A SECOND TO START BACK UP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HIGHWAY. THIS ONLY HAPPENS WHEN I FILL THE TANK ALL THE WAY UP. IT'S AN ISSUE WITH THE GAS TANK OR A VALVE GETTING STUCK OPEN/CLOSED IN THE TANK. I FILLED THE TANK AGAIN AND JUST WAITED AT THE GAS STATION TO SEE IF IT WOULD HAPPEN AGAIN AND IT DID. I WAITED ABOUT 2 MINUTES AND THE CAR SHUT OFF WHILE SITTING AT THE GAS STATION.. I LEFT THE GAS STATION AS SOON AS I TURNED OUT OF THE GAS STATION THE VEHICLE SHUT OFF 2 MORE TIMES. I HAVE TO EITHER FILL MY TANK TO 3/4'S A TANK OR PURPOSELY BURN GAS WHEN ON FULL TO NOT HAVE THIS HAPPEN AGAIN.
