2008 CHRYSLER 300 Unknown Or Other Problems

I informed the dealership of ignition switch recall shortly after purchasing vehicle. The dealership stated " the VIN number shows no recalls". And that was it said there nothing showing up. I KNOW ignition switch is messed up because every time I would turn the car off I could still feel it running. I've had my car a year and now it will not crank due to ignition switch and now fuel air intake is also messing up and has caused cylinder 6 to miss fire. I have been without a vehicle for a month now and I need it fixed. When test driving the car, it would slow down as I was turning into a place of business and almost getting hit by another vehicle.

HAIR LIKE CRACKS ABOVE FUEL PUMP! CONSTANTLY LEAKING GAS N CAR STALLING OUT!!!

WE HAD THE IGNITION SERVICED A FEW YEARS BACK THEN IT SAT INOP UNTIL RECENTLY NOW THE SAME PROBLEM WITH IGNITION ONLY THIS TIME IT WONT SHUT OFF

THE FLOOR SHIFTER IS HANGING IN PARK AFTER I HAVE PLACED THE VEHICLE IN PARK AND TURNED THE ENGINE OFF. WHEN I GET BACK IN THE CAR AND START IT UP, I CAN NOT GET IT OUT OF PARK. THIS IS THE SAME PROBLEM / RECALL ASSOCIATED WITH CHRYSLER SATISFACTION NOTIFICATION K39 FOR THE 2005-2007 MODELS.

WAS DRIVING VEHICLE AND OUT OF NO WHERE THERE WAS STEAM/SMOKE COMING FROM UNDER HOOD, THE CAR HOWEVER NEVER RAN HOT ACCORDING TO TEMPERATURE GAGE. COOLANT LIGHT CAME ON, I PARKED IT, FILLED IT WITH COOLANT AND TOOK IT TO CHRYSLER THE NEXT MORNING. DEALERSHIP CLAIMED THAT THE CAR OVERHEATED AND DAMAGED THE MOTOR, HOWEVER ACCORDING TO THE GAGE THE CAR NEVER RAN HOT.

I HAVE NOT RECEIVED RECALL LETTER FOR PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG

DEALERSHIP TOLD ME THAT THE TIPM IN MY CHRYSLER 300 WAS BAD AND IT WOULD COST ROUGHLY BETWEEN $1400-$1500 TO REPAIR THE PROBLEM. VEHICLE WOULD NOT START

I HAVE MADE CONTACT WITH A LOCAL CHRYSLER DEAL ABOUT BOTH RECALLS ON MY 300 WITH NO RESULTS. I'M TOLD THEY WILL CONTACT ME WHEN PARTS ARE AVAILABLE, BUT THEY NEVER CALL. I WILL NOT BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY COST IF THESE RECALL ISSUES DO DAMAGE TO MY OWN VEHICHLE OR PASENDER IN MY VEHICLE. I HAVE TRIED NUMERIOUR TIMES TO GET THESE ISSUES RECTIFIED AND HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO MAKE HEADWAY WITH THE DEALERSHIP.

IS TURNED ON THE LIGHT OF THE BAG OF AIR AND IS SHUT DOWN THE SYSTEM OF THE AIR CONDITIONING

I GOT THIS FROM THE TORONTO AUTO AUCTION AND TWO DAYS LATER THEY RECALL IF. I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR A WHILE AND I'M JUST WAITING FOR THE RECALL TO BE OFF OF IT.

SIGNED UP FOR THESE 3 RECALLS A LONG TIME AGO NEVER HEARD ANYTHING THEY SAY THEY DON'T HAVE THE PARTS THIS IS WRONG .

RECENTLY WE BOUGHT A 2008 CHRYSLER 300. A FEW MONTHS AFTER WE GOT IT, IT WOULD NOT START. WE BOUGHT A NEW BATTERY AND A FEW WEEKS AFTER THAT, IT WOULDN'T START. WE TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT. NOW, SOMETIMES IT WILL START AND SOMETIMES IT WONT. THERE IS NO CLICKING OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT JUST SILENCE WHEN IT WON'T START. THE HORN WORKS THE LIGHTS WORK AND THE DING THAT LETS YOU KNOW THE DOOR IS OPEN. IT CAN SET FOR A COUPLE OF WEEKS AND THEN START RIGHT UP AND A COUPLE OF DAYS LATER, NOTHING. I COULDN'T FIND A RECALL ON MY SPECIFIC CAR BUT I KNOW THEY HAVE HAD A LOT OF ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS. CAN YOU HELP?

THE DEALER IS NOT REMEDYING THE DEFECT WITH THE WIN MODULE DUE TO PART NOT BEING AVAILABLE. IT HAS BEEN HALF A YEAR SINCE I CALLED AND DEALER SAID IT WOULD CALL BACK ONCE THEY HAVE THE PART. ON 2-18-16 I CALLED THE DEALER SAY SIT DOES NOT HAVE THE PART AND TOOK MY NUMBER TO CALL BACK

THE DEALERSHIP WILL NOT FIX MY AIRBAG RECALL. (MAIMK HAIK HOUSTON, TX) I NEED SOMEONE TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE FAST. THIS IS MORE THEN A SAFTY ISSUE. I HAVE MADE THREE APPOINTMENTS AND THEY HAVENT FIXED MY CAR YET.

THE CAR IGNITION IS NOT WORKING,UNABLE TO KNOW WHEN THE CAR WILL START.

I GOT A RECALL ALMOST A YEAR AGO FOR THE IGNITION SWITCH AND ABOUT A MONTH OR SO AGO FOR THE AIR BAG. CHRYSLER HAS TOLD ME NEITHER PART IS AVAILABLE. MY CAR MAY START AND IT MAY NOT START FOR MONTHS. IT'S BEEN TOWED SEVERAL TIMES AFTER NOT STARTING WHILE OUT OR GETTING OFF WORK LATE. I FEEL CHRYSLER HAVE PUT ME IN SOME VERY DANGEROUS SITUATIONS OF BEING STRANDED. I DON'T AND CAN'T DRIVE MY CAR BECAUSE OF THE RECALLS. I PAY FOR INSURANCE ON A CAR I CAN'T DRIVE. I FEEL THAT CHRYSLER SHOULD BUY MY CAR BACK BECAUSE IT IS NO USE TO ME AND VERY INCONVENIENT. I PAID THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS FOR YOUR PRODUCT AND THIS IS HOW YOU TREAT YOUR CUSTOMERS. SHAME ON YOU CHRYSLER CORPORATION!!!!!!!

WHILE TRAVELING ON I465 EAST AND DRIVING 65 MILES AN HOUR I CHANGED LANES TO EXIT THE HIGHWAY AND THE CAR SHUT OFF.I PUT IT IN NEUTRAL AND RESTARTED THE ENGINE. ON MARCH 3RD 2014 THE CAR WOULD NOT START AND I HAD IT TOWED FROM ANDERSON INDIANA TO INDIANAPOLIS INDIANA BY AAA. I HAVE SINCE PAID $1400 FOR PARTS AND LABOR AND MY VEHICLE IS STILL NOT RUNNING. I ALSO PAID THE VEHICLE OFF WHILE IT WAS NOT RUNNING AND HAD TO PURCHASE ANOTHER VEHICLE. ALL THIS WITHOUT BEING AWARE OF AN IGNITION SWITCH PROBLEM.

ON APRIL 7, 2015 I HAD TROUBLE STARTING MY CAR. I THOUGHT IT WAS THE STARTER AND TOOK THE CAR TO MY LOCAL SERVICE STATION WHERE MY CAR "DIED". THEY EVALUATED THE CAR AND TOLD ME IT WAS THE KEY AND WINS COMPONENT. ON APRIL 8, THE SERVICE STATION MANAGER CALLED ME TO SAY THAT THE LOCAL CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP DID NOT KNOW WHEN THEY WOULD BE ABLE TO GET THE PART, SO I RENTED A CAR. ON APRIL 17, I WAS ADVISED TO CALL CHRYSLER CUSTOMER SERVICE. I NOW HAD A CASE NUMBER AND WAS TOLD MY ISSUE WOULD BE EXPEDITED BUT THE PART WAS NOT AVAILABLE IN THE USA. ON APRIL 27, I WROTE TO THE PRESIDENT AND VP OF CHRYSLER CORPORATION ASKING FOR THEIR HELP. ON MAY 6, I RECEIVED A CALL FROM MIKE AT CORPORATE HEADQUARTERS SAYING THE PART WOULD BE HERE ON MAY 13 (IT WASN'T) AND CHRYSLER WOULD PAY FOR MY CAR RENTAL (WHICH THEY DID). ON MAY 26, I WAS TOLD THAT THE KEYS WERE IN BUT NOT THE WINS COMPONENT - THAT MIGHT NOT BE READY UNTIL JULY. LATER THAT DAY, MY CAR WAS FIXED !! BUT WITH JEEP PARTS. IT COST ME OVER $1200; THE TRUNK DOESN'T OPEN WITH THE KEY; THE TIRE LIGHT REMAINS ON AT ALL TIMES AND THE CHRYSLER PART IS STILL NOT AVAILABLE. AND I MAY HAVE TO PAY FOR THE REPAIR AGAIN ONCE THE RIGHT PART COMES IN!!!

THE ENGINE COOLING FAN ON MY 2008 CHRYSLER 300 (3.5L V6) SEPARATED/BLEW APART DURING THE FAN OPERATION AND CAUSED DAMAGE TO THE RADIATOR. THE FAN AND RADIATOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THERE IS A RECALL NOTICE ON THE ENGINE COOLING FANS FOR THE CHRYSLER 300 (2006-2008) AS LISTED ON THE NHTSA WEBSITE; HOWEVER, CHRYSLER CLAIMS THAT MY CAR (2008 CHRYSLER 300) IS NOT ELIGIBLE FOR THE RECALL. THIS IS THE SAME ISSUE AS REPORTED BY OTHER CHRYSLER 300 DRIVERS.

RECALL # P57/NHTSA 14V-567 (REGISTERED UNDER AIM NATIONALEASE) I WRITING YOU DUE TO THE FACT THAT I RECEIVED THIS NOTICE ON 11/26/14 AND MY SERVICE MANAGER HAS CALLED THE DEALER MANY TIMES TO ONLY GET THE ANSWER WE DO NOT HAVE PARTS TO REPAIR THIS RECALL. I FEEL THIS IS NOT THE RESPONSE THE PUBLIC SHOULD GET EVERY TIME WE CALL A CHRYSLER DEALER. WE ARE A TRANSPORTATION COMPANY THAT DEALS WITH CLASS A EQUIPMENT AND MAKE SURE OUR VEHICLES ARE SAFE DAILY TO BE ON THE ROAD. I WOULD EXPECT THAT WE SHOULD GET A BETTER RESPONSE FROM CHRYSLER ON THE ISSUE. PLEASE RESPOND WITH THE REPAIR DEALER YOU WOULD LIKE US TO GET THIS CAR FIXED.

WE RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FOR THE IGNITION SWITCH BACK IN NOVEMBER 2014. THE SWITCH BEGAN FAILING IN LATE APRIL 2015. WE TOOK THE VEHICLE TO A LOCAL DEALERSHIP (MIKE ANDERSON DODGE IN MARION, INDIANA). THEY SAID ALL THEY COULD DO WAS REPLACE THE PART WITH THE SAME DEFECTIVE PART AND CHARGE US FOR THE PART AND THE LABOR. THEY REPLACED THE PART WITH A PART THEY KNOW IS DEFECTIVE AND PLACES OUR LIVES IN DANGER AND CHARGED US $565.00 TO DO SO. THEY SAID THAT WHEN THE REPLACEMENT PART BECOMES AVAILABLE THAT CHRYSLER MAY REIMBURSE US. THIS DOES NOT SEEM RIGHT.

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

HAD TO REPLACE IT AND PAY $945.00. *TR

WE HAVE TAKEN OUR 2008 CHRYSLER 300 TO 2 DIFFERENT CHRYSLER DEALERS AND THEY HAVEN'T FIXED OUR CAR. OUR CAR WINDOWS, AC, LIGHTS, BRAKE LIGHTS, FAN ETC DON'T WORK SEVERAL TIMES. WE HAVE TO STOP THE CAR AND GET TO A SAFE PLACE TO RESTART THE CAR AND SOMETIMES WE GET THE POWER BACK. THE FIRST CAR DEALER ARE SAYING THEY DON'T SHOW ANY ERROR IN THE SYSTEM. THE OTHER DEALER TOLD US SOMEONE MAY HAVE OPENED THEIR GARAGE AT THE SAME TIME WE STARTED OUR CAR AND THEY SAW A COUPLE OF ERRORS BUT THEY CAN'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. THEY WANT US TO BUY AMERICAN CARS AND THEN WE GET CHEATED AND LIED TO BY CHRYSLER. THEY SHOULD FIX OUR CAR. *TR
