TAKEN CAR TO THREE DIFFERENT MECHANICS AND THEY CAN NOT FIND SOURCE OF PROBLEM, EVEN WITH THE MECHANIC EXPERIENCING THE SERIOUS SHAKING WHILE BRAKING ON MOUNTAINOUS HIGHWAYS. INSPECTED BRAKES, TURNED ROTORS, REPLACED SUSPENSION COMPONENTS AND SHAKING STILL OCCURS. SOME PROBLEM ON THESE MODELS BECAUSE MY BROTHER IN LAW HAD SAME EXPERIENCE WITH HIS 300C. NOW CAR DRIVES FINE IN TOWN AND ON FREEWAY AT SPEED. 120K ON CAR NOW.

I HAVE REPLACED EVERYTHING ON MY FRONT END TRYING TO GET RID OF NOISES, LIKE METAL HITTING METAL AND NOTHING HAS WORKED. I HAVE REPLACED MY SHOCKS SEVERAL TIMES AND THE RIDE IS STILL ROUGH. I FEEL THAT THE MONEY I HAVE SPENT SHOULD BE REIMBURSED. THE CAR'S SUSPENSION HAS BEEN HORRIBLE. I HAVE SPOKE WITH THE DEALER AND HAD HIM REPAIR SEVERAL PARTS AND WAS TOLD BY THE DEALER, THESE CARS HAVE THE SAME SUSPENSION PROBLEMS. ONCE THEY GET SO MANY MILES ON THEM THEY ALL TEND TO MAKE NOISES NO ONE CAN FIND. AT WHAT POINT DOES THE MANUFACTURER OR THE GOVERNMENT STEP IN AN TAKE CARE OF ALL THESE PROBLEMS, THERE SHOULD HAVE BEEN A RECALL ISSUED ON THEM AT THIS POINT.

IT WAS AT RENTAL COMPANY FOR 1 1/2 YEARS THEN I WAS THE SUCKER THAT BOUGHT IT! THE TIE RODS GO ONCE A YEAR AND MECHANICS 'ALL TALK WHO CHRYSLER MADE THEM BAD I GUESS" THEN THE GOODYEAR INTREGRITY'S HYDROPLANE....THE SUSPENSION SOUNDS LIKE BEVERLY HILLBILLIES...I WAS TOLD THAT THE NOISES I HEAR ARE NOT THE SHOCKS I HAD REPLACED BUT ARE NOW THE ACTUAL FRONT ARM CONTROLS OF MY CAR THAT ARE ROTTING AWAY...ANOTHER THING IS THE ENGINE "KICKS IN HARD" WHEN GOING INTO 2ND SHIFT (AUTOMATIC)..THE HORN IS HARD TO PRESS..THE FRONT TIRES RUB, YOU CAN HEAR THEN WHEN TURNING EVEN THOUGH I AM UP TO DATE ON ROTORS AND PADS...LET'S SEE WHAT ELSE OH YES JUST PAID $400 BECAUSE THE CAR STARTED TO OVERHEAT SO WHEN I WAS THERE GETTING THAT FIXED I TOLD THEM HOW MY CAR HAS ALWAYS HAD CONDENSATION ON IT IN THE WINTER..I CAN CHISEL OFF THE ICE PARTICLES ON THE INSIDE! THEY SAID I NEEDED A WHOLE NEW HOUSING OF SOME SORTS FIXED SO THEY DID THAT..HUM WHAT ELSE? OH NOW THE ENGINE LIGHT IS ON AND THE CAR IS CHUGGING AND JERKING LIKE I'M IN A FARMER'S TRACTOR! IT'S 10/2013 AND I HAVE 2 MORE YEARS TO GO TO PAY...I HAVE NO MORE $$$ THANKS CHRYSLER..GOD BLESS AMERICA...2 MORE TO PAY ON THIS..I SHOULD HAVE STUCK WITH HONDA OR GO TOYOTA! *TR

AT ALL SPEEDS THE FRONT END WOULD RATTLE, TOOK TO AUTHORIZED DEALER THEY REPLACED SHOCKS,STABILIZER ETC. THIS DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. I CONTACTED THE SAME DEALER AND THEY EXPLAINED THAT THEY HAVE HAD A LOT OF TROUBLE WITH THE 300 FRONT ENDS AND TO BRING IT BACK AND THEY WILL RE EVALUATE THE PROBLEM. I FEEL THAT THE FRONT CLIP IS LOOSE. *JS
