2013 Chrysler 300 Complaints

THE ABS CONTROL MODULE FOR SEVERAL CHRYSLER VEHICLES IS UNAVAILABLE FOR PURCHASE AT THIS TIME. THE ABS IS EFFECTIVELY DISABLED AS A RESULT OF LACK OF PARTS. WHEN I SPOKE WITH A DEALER PARTS DEPARTMENT, THERE WERE HUNDREDS OF THESE MODULES BACKORDERED WITH NO FULFILLMENT DATE AVAILABLE. THE PART NUMBERS NECESSARY FOR MY SPECIFIC VEHICLE ARE 68195727AA (ORIGINAL) AND 68210119AB (REPLACEMENT). I AM CONCERNED WITH THE LOSS OF ANTI-LOCK BRAKING ABILITY FOR HUNDREDS OF CHRYSLER VEHICLES.

HANDS FREE MODULE QUIT WORKING, COMMON PROBLEM WITH DODGE/CHRYSLER, AC WILL NOT RECIRCULATE CAUSES ONLY OUTSIDE AIR TO BE DRAWN INTO THE CAB, CAUSE IS MALFUNCTIONING/BAD HUMIDITY SENSOR ABOUT THE RESR VIEW MIRROR, DRIVER HEATED SEAT QUIT WORKING, LEFT HEADLIGHT QUIT WORKING, BAD HID BALLAST. THE GAS AND BRAKE PEDAL ASSEMBLY WILL RETRACT ON IT'S OWN WHILE DRIVING. THE TRANSMISSION W5A580-NAG1-722.6 EITHER SHIFT EXTREMELY HARD 3-4 4-5 OR SLIPS IN BETWEEN THE GEARS CAUSING THE ENGINE RPMS TO GO WAY UP AND THEN EITHER FALLS BACK INTO GEAR OR CAUSES A NEUTRAL AND WILL NOT GO BACK INTO GEAR UNTIL YOU EITHER DROP BELOW 18 MPH OR COMPLETELY STOP AND EITHER PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND BACK INTO DRIVE OR SHUT THE ENGINE OFF FOR ABOUT 10 SECONDS AND START IT BACK UP. AFTER THE FLARE BETWEEN GEARS IT IS STUCK IN 3RD GEAR OR LIMP MODE WITH A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT DTC READ P0730 THROUGH P0735. LITERALLY HAVE TO CARRY A DIAGNOSTIC SCAN TOOL WITH ME TO CLEAR THE CODES. ITS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND ALWAYS HAPP...

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CHRYSLER 300. THE CONTACT STATED THAT UPON PURCHASE OF THE VEHICLE, THE VEHICLE WOULD SHIFT OUT OF GEAR INDEPENDENTLY WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT HAD TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO MCCLUSKEY CHEVROLET (9673 KINGS AUTO MALL RD, CINCINNATI, OH 45249) ON TWO SEPARATE OCCASIONS WHERE THE MECHANIC WAS UNABLE TO DETERMINE THE CAUSE FOR THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE AT A COMPLETE STOP, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING WHILE DEPRESSING THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL. THE CONTACT WAS UNABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE THEY DIAGNOSED THE VEHICLE WITH TRANSMISSION FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER HAD YET TO BE NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE HAD YET TO BE REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

THE SEAT BELT LIGHT IS ON AFTER THE SEAT BELT IS FASTENED KEEP RELAYING A MESSAGE ON THE EVIC SCREEN AS DRIVER SEAT BELT IS UNBUCKLED . SURE THIS WILL CAUSE THE SEAT BELT TO NOT OPERATE PROPERLY DURING A COLLISION. VERY BIG SAFETY CONCERN. DIDN'T NOTICE TILL I STARTED DRIVE DOWN THE ROAD THEN THE EVIC SCREEN MESSAGE MAIL ALERT WAS SAYING DRIVE SEAT BELT UNBUCKLED

DIAGNOSTIC SHOWS MISFIRE IN CYLINDER 8. VEHICLE HAS 123,000 MILES ON IT. I AM TOLD IT IS A LIFTER OR CAM AND THAT I NEED A NEW ENGINE. THIS VEHICLE IS 7 YEARS OLD AND HAS BEEN MAINTAINED. AFTER READING REVIEWS THE HEMI ENGINE IS KNOWN TO BREAK DOWN. THE ESTIMATED COST FOR A NEW ENGINE APPROXIMATELY $ 7,000. VEHICLE ALL OF A SUDDEN IDLED VERY ROUGH TOOK IN AND MAJOR WORK NEEDED TO BE DONE. WISH CHRYSLER WOULD BACK THEIR VEHICLE.
