ON 1/12/2017 I TOOK MY CHRYSLER 300 TO MOORE CHRYSLER BECAUSE OF A GROWLING NOISE IN THE ENGINE THEY SAID THEY DIDN'T KNOW WHAT IT WAS SO THEY KEPT IT TWO DAYS CALLED SAID IT WAS DONE PAYED 1517.99 DOLLARS DROVE IT HOME, PULLED IN THE GARAGE HEARD THE SAME SOUND AS WHEN I TOOK IN THE FIRST TIME CALLED THEM TOLD ME BRING IT BACK FOR ANOTHER 1400.00 DOLLARS WE'LL LOOK AT IT NO WAY TOOK TO A MAN WHO BUILDS ENGINES FOR A LIVING HE TOOK THE OIL CAP OFF PUT HIS EAR DOWN TO THE ENGINE AND SAID YOUR TIMING CHAIN GUIDES ARE GONE THERE RUBBING METAL TO METAL AND IF YOU DON'T GET IT FIXED YOU WILL BLOW AN ENGINE. HE SAID THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE IF YOU ARE DRIVING ON A FREEWAY AT 70MPH AND THE ENGINE BLOWS YOU HAVE NO CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE SO I MAY KILL OR HURT MYSELF OR THOSE WITH ME OR CAUSE AN ACCIDENT KILLING OR HURTING SOMEONE ELSE. CHRYSLER HAS KNOWN ABOUT THIS SINCE 2014 OR EARLIER BUT THEY REFUSE TO FIX THE PROBLEM ON THE 2.7 ENGINES HOW MANY PEOPLE WILL HAVE TO DIE OR BE HURT BEFORE THIS PROBLEM IS FIXED? IT COST ME AN OTHER 1100.00 DOLLAR TO HAVE MY CAR FIXED BUT I KNOW IT'S DONE RIGHT. I FEEL NOW I CAN TAKE FAMILY AND FRIENDS IN MY CAR AND FEEL SAFE. SOMEONE NEEDS TO TELL CHRYSLER CORP. TO GET OFF SOME OF THE MILLIONS OF DOLLARS THEY GET FROM CUSTOMER WHO BUY THEIR CARS AND FIX WHAT NEEDS TO BE FIXED 1517.99 DOLLARS TO CHRYSLER WALK AROUND MONEY BUT TO A VIETNAM VETERAN ON A FIXED INCOME IT'S A LOT OF MONEY.

I OWN CHRYSLER 300 2010 KEEP IT WELL MAINTAINED. PAST FEW WEEKS IT HAS BEEN RUNNING POORLY HESITANT TO START. THOUGH IT MAY NEED NEW BATTERY. 61000 MILES. FRI 11/4/2016 DRIVING ON INTERSTATE I-93 ENGINE SEIZED!!!!!! NO WARNING. NO OIL LIGHT. NO ENGINE LIGHTS WENT ON NOTHING. L ALMOST GOT KILLED ON HIGHWAY!! TOWED IT TO SERVICE STATION THAT WAS 200 MILES AWAY FROM HOME. HAVE EXTENDED WARRANTY. CALLED CHRYSLER AND THEY SAID I HAVE TO TOW IT TO DEALERSHIP TO DETERMINE IF IT IS COVERED.... HERE WE GO. THERE HAS BEEN AT LEAST 2800 COMPLAINTS AGAINST CHRYSLER ENGINE FAILURES DUE TO OIL SLUDGE DUE TO DEFECTIVE ENGINES. THERE IS A PENDING CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT VS CHRYSLER 2.7 LITE V6 ENGINE. LOOKS LIKE I MIGHT HAVE TO HEAD DOWN THAT ROAD. I CANT AFFORD A 6000.00 REPAIR!!!!

2010 CHRYSLER 300. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO VEHICLE ENGINE SEIZED UP. CONSUMER SEEKS FULL REFUND FROM MANUFACTURER FOR VEHICLE /"LEMON". *SMD

WHILE DRIVING ON MY WAY TO WORK I WAS PULLING UP TO A STOP SIGN BEFORE MERGING ONTO BUSY TRAFFIC ON A MAIN ROAD WHEN MY CAR CUT OFF. I TRIED STARTING IT AGAIN BUT IT WOULD TURN OVER BUT IT WOULD NOT STAY RUNNING. AFTER TOW ATTEMPTS I STOPPED TRYING TURNED ON MY HAZARDS AND SIGNALED FOR THE CARS BEHIND TO TRY TO GO AROUND (AS THIS WAS NOT EASY AS I WAS BLOCKING TRAFFIC). NO WARNING LIGHTS WERE ON, OR CAME ON PREVIOUSLY, I MAINTAINED ADEQUATE 3000 MI OIL CHANGES, AND MAINTENANCE. MEANWHILE A POLICE OFFICER HELPED ME PUT THE CAR IN NEUTRAL AND MOVED ME OUT OF THE WAY OF TRAFFIC AND STAYED NEAR WHILE I WAITED ON THE TOW TRUCK. I AM GRATEFUL THAT MY CAR DID NOT STALL OUT ON THE HIGHWAY WHILE I WAS TRANSPORTING MY CHILD. THE THOUGHT OF MY CAR SUDDENLY STALLING IS FRUSTRATING AND SCARY! WITH THE MILEAGE OF MY CAR, THE ENGINE SHOULD BE THE LEAST OF MY WORRIES.

CAR SHUTS OFF WHILE IN MOTION THIS HAS OCCURRED AT LEAST 6 TIMES

THE CAR SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME AT LEAST 5 TIMES IN THE PAST MONTH SO FAR USUALLY IN THE MIDDLE OF A TURN. I HAVE TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND TURN THE KEY IN ORDER TO START IT UP AGAIN. IT STARTS UP AND I'M ON MY WAY AGAIN. THE ISSUE IS THERE IS NO WARNING LIKE THE CAR SLOWING DOWN OR VIBRATING OR A DASHBOARD WARNING LIGHT BEFORE IT SHUTS DOWN. I'M AFRAID THE DRIVER BEHIND ME WILL RUN IN TO ME BECAUSE OF THIS. I'VE HAD A DIAGNOSTIC TEST DONE TODAY AND THE REPAIR SHOP COULD NOT TELL ME WHAT IS WRONG BECAUSE THEY SEE NO HISTORY OF ANY CODES COMING UP. THEY WOULD NEED TO SEE IT HAPPEN. THAT WOULD BE HARD TO DO.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE EXPRESSWAY AS WELL AS ON CITY STREETS THE CAR IS CUTTING OFF WITHOUT ANY WARNING. *TR

ONE MORNING MY HUSBAND WAS ON HIS WAY TO WORK AROUND 6 AM WHEN SUDDENLY THE CAR SHUT OFF WITH NO WARNING OR INDICATOR. THE CAR WAS STILL UNDER THE MANUFACTURER WARRANTY SO WE HAD THE CAR TOWED TO THE DEALER WHERE WE PURCHASED IT (CARMAX). UPON FURTHER REVIEW WE WERE TOLD THE ENGINE BLEW DUE TO SLUDGE BUILD UP AND THEY NEEDED OUR MAINTENANCE RECEIPTS. EVEN AFTER PROVIDED THE DOCUMENTS FOR THE LAST YEAR THEY STILL REFUSED TO COVER IT UNDER THE WARRANTY BECAUSE CHRYSLER DOESN'T COVER SLUDGE BUILD UP. WE WERE ADVISED TO RESEARCH THIS PROBLEM BY A SHOP THAT SELLS THESE 2.7 LITER ENGINES BECAUSE IT WAS A COMMON PROBLEM AMONG THESE ENGINES NATION WIDE. CHRYSLER SAID THEY DID NOT HAVE ENOUGH COMPLAINTS TO ISSUE A RECALL.UNFORTUNATELY THEY'LL RECOGNIZE THIS DEFECT WHEN THERE IS A CATASTROPHIC PILE UP ON THE ROAD AND PEOPLE LOSE THEIR LIVES.
