I WAS DRIVING MY 2008 CHRYSLER 300 TOURING ON MY WAY HOME NORTH BOUND ON RICHMOND AVE APPROACHING THE INTERSECTION OF VICTORY BLVD AT A SPEED OF APPROXIMATELY 25 MILES PER HOUR . MY MOON ROOF OF MY VEHICLE EXPLODED LITTERING GLASS ALL OVER THE INTERIOR AND EXTERIOR OF MY VEHICLE AND THE GLASS CAUSED CUTS AND ABRASIONS ON MY RIGHT HAND AND SCALP. THE GLASS ALSO SCRAPED AND CUT THE INTERIOR FRONT SEATS OF MY VEHICLE. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 CHRYSLER 300. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 50 MPH, THE VEHICLE SLIPPED INTO A LOWER GEAR AND DROPPED DOWN TO 30- 40 MPH.

BOUGHT A 2008 CHRYSLER 300 LIMITED 3.5 ON DECEMBER 18TH. ON SUNDAY THE 23RD, I USED THE WINDSHIELD WASHER DUE TO FLYING ROAD WATER AFTER A RAIN, THAT RESULTED IN A TOTAL ELECTRICAL FAILURE. ENGINE STOPPED UNTIL I RELEASED WINDSHIELD WASHER SWITCH, AND WHEN IT RESTARTED..IT WAS IN A LOWER GEAR, RESULTING IN SIGNIFICANT SLOW DOWN WITH BRAKING. SUCH AN EVENT IN FASTER AND HEAVY TRAFFIC COULD BE A SIGNIFICANT PROBLEM FOR OCCUPANTS AND/OR THOSE DRIVING BEHIND A CAR EXPERIENCING SUCH AN EVENT. THE DEALERSHIP HAS STATED THAT IT WAS DUE TO A MAJOR ELECTRICAL CIRCUIT BOARD THAT WAS ORDERED. THE CAR WAS LEFT WITH THE DEALER ON DECEMBER 24TH AND TODAY THEY CALLED STATING THAT THE PART IS ON BACK ORDER AND HAVE NO IDEA WHEN IT MIGHT BE AVAILABLE. IF ON BACK ORDER, ONE HAS TO THINK THAT THERE IS A MUCH LARGER PROBLEM THAN JUST MY AUTOMOBILE. *TR

A MONTH AFTER PURCHASING MY CAR THE CAR WOULD NOT START THE FACTORY ALARM AND LIGHTS WOULD AUTOMATICALLY STAR FLASHING AND COME ON, MY CAR WAS BACK IN THE SHOP 35 TIMES OR MORE WHICH THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASED THE CAR BECAME RUDE AND MEAN TOWARD ME, MY IGNITION SWITCH IS STUCK COMPLETELY NOW AND MY CAR AS OF 11/15/2914 WILL NOT START. THE RECALL PARTS ARE STILL NOT AVAILABLE WHAT CAN I DO? I'M FRUSTRATED AS A SINGLE LADY TRYING TO HANDLE MY RESPONSIBILITY. I CALLED THE NHTSA HOTLINE AND THEY KEEP SAYING MAKE SURE WHEN YOU TURN THE KEY TO THE ON POSITION, THIS CAR IS DESIGNED WITHOUT ANY WORDS ON THE SWITCH OR DASHBOARD SO WHEN LOCK HOW DO YOU KNOW WHERE THE POSITIONS ARE? WHEN TRYING TO PUT MY KEY IN THE IGNITION IT WOULD NOT GO IN. I HAVE KNOW IDEA WHAT TO DO AT THIS POINT. *TR
