2006 CHRYSLER 300. BOUGHT THIS CAR FOR MY 16 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER TO DRIVE. THE CAR STARTING STUMBLING AND STALLING AT RANDOM TIMES, AND SPEEDS, ONCE WHILE DRIVING AT 80 MPH THE RPMS DROPPED TO 0 AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT FLASHED; IT ALWAYS JUST FLASHES. THEN JUST AS FAST AS THE RPMS DROPPED TO ZERO IT CAME RIGHT BACK UP. THE CAR JUMPED FORWARD LIKE I FLOORED THE PEDDLE. I HAVE MANAGED TO CAPTURE THIS ON VIDEO, BECAUSE IT WENT ON ACTING THIS WAY FOR SEVERAL MILES. THEN IT WAS FINE FOR ABOUT ANOTHER 150 MILES. THEN. IT RETURNED. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALER 3 TIMES AND THEY SAY NO CODES NO PROBLEM, THE FORTH TIME IT HAPPENED I GOT A CODE U0100 AND P0700. WITH MY SCAN TOOL BUT AGAIN DEALER SAYS THEY CANT FIND ANYTHING WRONG AND THERE IS NO CODES. WHEN ASKED HOW WAS THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON IF THERE WERE NO CODES. THE ANSWER WAS THEY DID NOT KNOW. THIS PROBLEM STILL IS PRESENT TO THIS DAY. IT STILL STALLS AND SHUTS DOWN AT ANY GIVEN SPEED. RATHER ITS PARKED OR RUNNING 80. THE CAR USE TO RESTART OK BUT NOW THE RESTARTING IS BECOMING AN ISSUE. I JUST MADE THE FIRST PAYMENT ON IT A FEW DAYS AGO. I BOUGHT THIS CAR FROM A DODGE DEALER. HERE'S WHAT I AM GOING TO DO. ITS WELL DOCUMENTED (BY ME AND THE DEALER) THAT THIS CAR HAS A PROBLEM. THEY SAY ITS SAFE, THEY SAY NO CODES NO PROBLEMS. SO IM GOING TO CONTINUE DRIVING IT AND IF SOMETHING GOES WRONG (HEAVEN FORBID) CHRYSLER WILL BE FUNDING MY RETIREMENT. SO THANKS CHRYSLER. I'M TRUSTING YOU AND YOUR REPRESENTATIVES. YOU SAY NO CODES NO

CAR WILL NOT MOVE OUT OF PARK. IT IS DUE TO A SMALL SOLENOID INSIDE THE GEAR SHIFT CONTROL. MANY OTHER 300S HAVE BEEN RECALLED FOR THIS, BUT BECAUSE OF WHERE THE ONE IN MY CAR WAS MADE, I AM NOT "ELIGIBLE" FOR A RECALL. HAS IT OCCURRED TO ANYONE AT CHRYSLER THAT PERHAPS THE DESIGN OF THE PART, AND NOT WHERE IT IS MANUFACTURED IS FAULTY??? *TR

I WENT OUT TO START MY CHRYSLER 300 TO HEAD TO WORK AND AGAIN THE GEAR SHIFT WOULD NOT MOVE. I CALLED CHRYLSER (THE COMPANY) AND WAS TOLD IF I TOOK IT TO A DEALER TO GET IT REPAIRED IT WAS POSSIBLE I COULD HAVE THE REPAIRS DONE FREE. SO I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO THE CHRYSLER DEALER WHERE THE MECHANIC SAID THE PROBLEM WAS A PART LOCATED WITHIN THE GEAR SHIFT THAT MALFUNCTIONED CAUSING THE GEAR SHIFT NOT TO MOVE. THE PART JUST SIMPLY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED, BUT IT WOULD COST ME NEARLY $700.00. THE SAME DAY I HAD THE CAR REPAIRED I CONTACTED CHRYSLER (THE COMPANY) AND WAS TOLD THEY COULD NOT HELP ME WITH THIS PROBLEM. SO I WAITED TO SEE WHAT I SHOULD DO. ON JULY 17, 2014- I CONTACTED CHRYSLER TO TRY AND SPEAK WITH THEM ONE LAST TIME ABOUT THE SITUATION BEFORE GOING TO COURT. AT ONE POINT THE REPRESENTATIVE EVEN BECAME TEMPERAMENTAL WITH ME STATING THAT BECAUSE MY CAR DID NOT HAVE THE PROPER VIN # IT WAS NOT INVOLVED IN THE RECALL, REGARDLESS IF IT HAD THE SAME PROBLEM OR NOT. THIS INCIDENT HAPPENED ONCE BEFORE. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME I'VE HAD TO HAVE THIS PART REPLACED.
