TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 CHRYSLER 300. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO OPEN THE REAR PASSENGER DOOR FROM OUTSIDE THE VEHICLE, THE HANDLE DETACHED FROM THE DOOR. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC OR DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING OR REPAIRS. A MONTH LATER, THE HANDLES ALSO DETACHED FROM THE DRIVER'S DOOR AND THE FRONT PASSENGER DOOR WHILE BEING OPENED FROM THE OUTSIDE. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO OPEN THE REAR DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR TO ENTER THE VEHICLE AND THEN OPENED THE OTHER DOORS FROM THE INSIDE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURES. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 125,000.

I WAS GOING TO CHECK THE OIL LEVEL WHEN THE TOP OF THE DIPSTICK CAME OFF IN MY HAND. IT IS MADE OF PLASTIC.; I WAS OPENING THE DRIVERS DOOR, THE HANDLE CAME HALFWAY OFF, SUBSEQUENTLY ALL HANDLES HAVE DONE THE SAME THING. THE WASHER FLUID DOES NOT SPRAY. THESE PROBLEMS ALL HAPPENED IN THE PAST 3 OR 4 YEARS. THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY FOR THESE PROBLEMS. WHILE TURNING, THE STEERING WHEEL WOULD NOT CONTINUE TOO TURN, HEARD A " THUNK", FINALLY TURNED BUT THE TURN SIGNAL MECHANISM DOES NOT WORK NOW.

TRANSMISSION SHIFTER INTERLOCK LEVER RECALL K39 VEHICLE WAS PARKED, WHEN I TURNED ON THE IGNITION, I WAS UNABLE TO SHIFT VEHICLE FROM PARK, HOWEVER, CHRYSLER INSISTS MY VEHICLE (BASED ON MY VIN) IS NOT PART OF THE RECALL. I DO NOT WANT TO PAY FOR THIS REPAIR, HOW CAN CHRYSLER EXCLUDE VEHICLES FROM THE RECALL, WHEN THIS PROBLEM SHOULD BE COVERED BY THE RECALL? WHAT RECOURSE DO I HAVE AS A CONSUMER?

THE CYLINDER VALVE SEAT FELL OFF THE CYLINDER HEAD, THEN FELL DOWN INTO THE PISTON CAUSING DAMAGE TO THE VALVES AND PISTON THUS THE ONLY REPAIR POSSIBLE IS TO REPLACE THE ENGINE. NOT SURE WHEN THIS HAPPENED BECAUSE THERE WERE NO WARNING SIGNS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 CHRYSLER 300. WHEN THE CONTACT ATTEMPTED TO OPEN THE FRONT DRIVER'S DOOR, THE HANDLE DETACHED. THE CONTACT ALSO NOTICED THAT THE REAR DRIVER SIDE DOOR HANDLE WAS ABOUT TO FRACTURE. THE DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 127,000. *LN UPDATED 9/12/18*JB

WHILE DRIVING MY 2005 CHRYSLER 300 THE THROTTLE BODY CONTROL LIGHT ON THE DASH COMES ON.AND THE CAR STARTS RUNNING RUFF LOOSES POWER AND SPEED TILL IT COMES TO A COMPLETE STOP. I HAVE REPLACEED THE THROTTLE BODY AND THE MAIN COMPUTER WITHOUT ANY CHANGE. MY MACHANIC SAYS THE PROBLEM IS IN THE WIRING HARNESS. THEY CONTACTED THE DEALER ABOUT GETTING A NEW WIRING HARNESS AND WAS THOL THE WIRING HARNESS WAS DISCONUED AN THEY NO LONGER MAKE WIRING HARNESS FOR THIS CAR +AND THAT IT COULDN'T BE REPAIRED.

I HAVE A TICKING NOISE IN MY ENGINE DON'T KNOW WHY

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2005 CHRYSLER 300. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 25 MPH, THE CONTACT'S VEHICLE STRUCK THE FRONT PASSENGER AND REAR PASSENGER DOORS OF ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE AIR BAG DEPLOYED AND METAL SHARDS STRUCK THE CONTACT IN THE RIGHT HAND. MEDICAL ATTENTION WAS REQUIRED. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED AND DESTROYED. A DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE CRASH. THE DRIVER'S AIR BAG WAS PREVIOUSLY REPLACED ON MARCH 31, 2016 PER THE TAKATA AIR BAG RECALL. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 108,000.

THIS CAR WILL STALL AT COMPLETELY RANDOM INTERVALS. IT HAS DONE IT AT SPEED, ON ACCELERATION, ON DECELERATION, AT STOPS. OCCASIONALLY THE CRUISE CONTROL WILL NOT FUNCTION CORRECTLY. THE CAR WILL ALSO SPIT, SPUTTER AND BUCK AT SPEEDS ABOVE 35MPH. WHEN THIS HAPPENS, THERE IS A TOTAL LOSS OF POWER STEERING, BRAKES, ETC. IN ORDER TO RESTART THE CAR, IT REQUIRES BEING PLACED INTO NEUTRAL OR PARK, AND TRYING AT LEAST 3 TIMES BEFORE ENGINE WILL RUN AGAIN. THE CAR WILL USUALLY CONTINUE TO STALL 3-10 TIMES. ON RETURNING TO "DRIVE" THE CAR WILL USUALLY STAY STATIONARY FOR ANOTHER 5-10 SECONDS BEFORE SURGING FORWARD. REVERSE DOES NOT HAVE THIS EFFECT. CAR HAS BEEN CHECKED BY SEVERAL MECHANICS, WHO CAN PULL NO CODES, AND DON'T SEEM TO HAVE ANY CLUE WHAT IS CAUSING THE INTERMITTENT ISSUE. IT IS VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION, AS THERE IS NO WARNING THE CAR IS ABOUT TO STALL, AND THERE IS NO PATTERN TO WHEN IT WILL STALL. IN GOOGLING THE ISSUE, I WAS ABLE TO FIND THE CHRYSLER CAMPAIGN X53 EXTENDED WARRANTY ON "SOME" 2006 300CS, BUT WHEN I CALLED THE CHRYSLER DEALER TO CHECK MY VIN, I WAS TOLD MY CAR IS NOT COVERED UNDER THIS KNOWN DEFECTIVE GAS TANK. THE MESSAGE BOARDS HAVE MANY INSTANCES OF PEOPLE DESCRIBING THIS EXACT ISSUE FOR THIS EXACT CAR. THIS A SERIOUSLY LIFE THREATENING ISSUE.

WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD THE FRONT HEADLIGHTS BEGIN TO FLICKER. I TRIED TURNING THEM ON AND OFF BUT THE PROBLEM STILL OCCURRED MAKING IT VERY DANGEROUS TO DRIVE.

TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 CHRYSLER 300. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBERS: 15V313000 (AIR BAGS) AND 16V352000 (AIR BAGS); HOWEVER, THE PARTS TO DO THE REPAIRS WERE UNAVAILABLE.

TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 CHRYSLER 300. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED ON THE ROAD, ANOTHER VEHICLE IN FRONT OF THE CONTACTS VEHICLE SLIGHTLY BACKED INTO THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE. THE AIR BAG DEPLOYED IN THE STEERING WHEEL AND THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE. THE DRIVER AND FRONT PASSENGER WERE SHOCKED, BUT NOT INJURED AS THE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED. A POLICE REPORT WAS NOT FILED. THE FAILURE HAPPENED BEFORE THE APPOINTMENT HAD BEEN SCHEDULED FOR NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBERS: 15V313000 (AIR BAGS) AND 16V352000 (AIR BAGS). THE DEALER (RANDY WISE CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM, 4239 W VIENNA RD, CLIO, MI 48420, 1 (888) 850-5667) WAS NOTIFIED, BUT HAD NOT VERIFIED WHEN THEY WOULD BE ABLE TO PROVIDE THE REMEDY AND PARTS TO PROVIDE THE REPAIR. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE. PARTS DISTRIBUTION DISCONNECT.

CHRYSLER RECALL #K39 CONSISTED OF MOST 2005 - 2007 WHO HAD OR MAY HAVE THE ISSUE. I PHONED CHRYSLER TO INFORM THEM THAT I NOW HAVE THE ISSUE BUT THE REPRESENTATIVE SAID THAT MY VEHICLE HAD TO HAVE BEEN MANUFACTURED ON JUNE/JULY 24, 2007. MY THOUGHT IS THAT IF IT HAD TO BE MANUFACTURED IN 2007 HOW WOULD ANY 2005-2006 VEHICLE QUALIFY FOR THE RECALL. THEN ALL THE REPRESENTATIVE KEPT SAYING IS THAT MY VEHICLE DOES NOT QUALIFY, WHILE I AM INFORMING HIM THAT IT HAS TO QUALIFY BECAUSE MY SHIFT IS DOING JUST WHAT YOU ALL RECALLED. HE KEPT SAYING, WELL THAT IS NOT ON "YOUR LIST". WELL, I NEED HIM TO ADD IT TO "MY LIST". WHATEVER "LIST" HE IS SPEAKING OF. THE STUCK SHIFT HAPPENED LAST NIGHT ABOUT 11:00PM WHEN I GOT OFF FROM WORK, STARTED MY CAR, WENT TO SHIFT GEARS AND NOTHING HAPPENED. I FEEL MY CAR'S SHIFT FAILURE FALLS IN-LINE WITH THE RECALL K39.

GEAR SHIFT STUCK IN PARK POSITION VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY

SEVERE RUSTING AND ROTTING OF CRADLE AND SUSPENSION. MECHANIC WOULD NOT ALLOW CAR TO PASS INSPECTION.

WHENEVER I FILL UP AT THE GAS STATION ABOUT 2-3 MINUTES LATER WHILE I'M DRIVING THE ENTIRE DASH BOARD WILL LIGHT UP AND THE CAR WILL CUT COMPLETELY OFF. I HAVE TO PUT IN IN PARK AND TRY TO RESTART IT ABOUT 5 TIMES, EACH TIME THE OIL LIGHT COMES ON AND IT JUST STALLS, ONCE IT DOES CATCH THE SPEED FLUCTUATES UP AND DOWN BUT ABOUT 5 MINUTES LATER IT HAPPENS ALL OVER AGAIN. I KNOW IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE OIL BECAUSE I HAD GOTTEN AN OIL CHANGE BEFORE I PUT THE GAS IN THE CAR. THIS HAD HAPPENED A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO SO I HAD JUST STOPPED FILLING THE CAR UP AND THIS TIME I FORGOT. THE CAR CUTS OFF WHILE IN MOTION, YOU CAN'T TURN THE STEERING WHEEL, IT JUST STOPS WHERE EVER YOU ARE, ALL I COULD DO WAS CUT ON THE HAZARDS AND KEEP TRYING TO RESTART IT, IT SOUNDS LIKE YOU ARE TRYING TO RESTART WHILE IT'S ALREADY ON, IT MAKES A SCREECHING SOUND, AND SOUNDS LIKE IT'S TRYING TO CATCH.

THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND CONFIRMED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED DUE TO THE FACT THAT THE VEHICLE FUEL TANK WAS NOT THE CORRECT SIZE AND OFFERED NO FURTHER ASSISTANCE.
