Additionally, the contact stated that the message “Wrong Gear/Change Gear” was displayed. The contact stated that several unknown warning lights were illuminated. The contact stated that on another occasion while in neutral, the vehicle failed to shift into park as intended. The vehicle was taken to a dealer twice however, the failure was not duplicated. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact stated that years later, the vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where it was diagnosed that the infotainment system needed to be replaced.

The alternator ceased up on me while I was driving on 7/12/2019. This almost caused an accident! I was driving around 55MPH and the steering and brakes completely locked up. I couldn't turn the wheel or stop my car. Eventually I slowed down and barely got the steering wheel to turn so I wasn't stuck right on the highway. My car was towed to a mechanic that replaced the alternator. I later received a recall notice in the mail for the alternator and have been trying to get reimbursed.

Per the local dealer inspection the PDC unit has faulty wiring which caused the fuse to burn severely in turn things begin to randomly stop working no sound from radio, doors will not lock at times, back up camera goes in and out.

HANDS FREE MODULE QUIT WORKING, COMMON PROBLEM WITH DODGE/CHRYSLER, AC WILL NOT RECIRCULATE CAUSES ONLY OUTSIDE AIR TO BE DRAWN INTO THE CAB, CAUSE IS MALFUNCTIONING/BAD HUMIDITY SENSOR ABOUT THE RESR VIEW MIRROR, DRIVER HEATED SEAT QUIT WORKING, LEFT HEADLIGHT QUIT WORKING, BAD HID BALLAST. THE GAS AND BRAKE PEDAL ASSEMBLY WILL RETRACT ON IT'S OWN WHILE DRIVING. THE TRANSMISSION W5A580-NAG1-722.6 EITHER SHIFT EXTREMELY HARD 3-4 4-5 OR SLIPS IN BETWEEN THE GEARS CAUSING THE ENGINE RPMS TO GO WAY UP AND THEN EITHER FALLS BACK INTO GEAR OR CAUSES A NEUTRAL AND WILL NOT GO BACK INTO GEAR UNTIL YOU EITHER DROP BELOW 18 MPH OR COMPLETELY STOP AND EITHER PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND BACK INTO DRIVE OR SHUT THE ENGINE OFF FOR ABOUT 10 SECONDS AND START IT BACK UP. AFTER THE FLARE BETWEEN GEARS IT IS STUCK IN 3RD GEAR OR LIMP MODE WITH A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT DTC READ P0730 THROUGH P0735. LITERALLY HAVE TO CARRY A DIAGNOSTIC SCAN TOOL WITH ME TO CLEAR THE CODES. ITS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND ALWAYS HAPPENS IN THE WORST PLACES LIKE GETTING ON THE INTERSTATE OR ON BUSY CITY STREETS ALMOST CAUSES AN ACCIDENT BECAUSE YOU HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO PULL OVER AND STOP NO MATTER WHERE YOU ARE OR THE CONDITIONS AROUND YOU... THESE ARE ALL VERY COMMON ISSUES WITH THIS CAR, IT WOULD BE NICE IF CHRYSLER WOULD MAKE IT RIGHT...

AS I WAS DRIVING, ALL THE WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON. I PULLED OVER PLACED THE CAR IN PARK, BUT THE CAR WAS STUCK IN THE RUN POSITION BUT WAS NOT RUNNING. I DISCONNECTED THE BATTERY VIA THE NEGATIVE TERMINAL AND PROCEEDED TO RECONNECT IT. I HAVE POWER TO THE EXTERIOR AND INTERIOR LIGHTS GAS AND TRUNK DOOR, BUT NOTHING AS FAR AS CLUSTER PANEL OR STARTER BUTTON. I PLACED THE CAR IN NEUTRAL AND PULLED IT HOME, THE DASH AND RADIO CAME ON, I ASSUME DUE TO THE WHEELS TURNING BRINGING POWER THROUGH THE ALTERNATOR. AFTER SOME THOROUGH RESEARCH, I FOUND THAT THERE WAS A FAULTY ALTERNATOR ON THESE CARS FOR RECALL.

MY 18 YEAR OLD SON WAS DRIVING THE CAR AT ABOUT 40-50 MILES AN HOUR ON A VERY BUSY STREET IN BELLEVUE WASHINGTON, A CITY HE'S NOT FAMILIAR WITH WHEN THE CAR SUDDENLY SHIFTED INTO PARK AND WOULD NO LONGER ACCELERATE. HE HAD TO THINK QUICKLY AND BY THE GRACE OF GOD HE WAS ABLE TO MOMENTARILY GET THE CAR IN DRIVE AND PULL OVER INTO A DRIVEWAY. ONCE STOPPED THE CAR WOULD NOT SHIFT INTO ANY OTHER GEAR, IT WOULD REVERT BACK TO PARK REGARDLESS OF WHAT GEAR YOU SHIFTED IT INTO. WE TRIED TO SHIFT IT INTO DRIVE AND IT REVERTED BACK TO PARK. THIS IS THE SECOND VERY SERIOUS SITUATION I'VE HAD WITH THIS CAR. THE FUSE HAPPENS OVER A YEAR AGO WHEN THE CAR JUST STOPPED RUNNING IN THE MIDDLE OF DRIVING. I ALMOST GOT HIT BY A BUS BUT LUCKILY I WAS ALSO ABLE TO THINK QUICK ND TURN INTO A URGENT CARE PARKING LOT. IT WAS A FAULTY ALTERNATOR THAT WAS A PART OF A RECALL. I AM VERY SCARED TO DRIVE THIS CAR AND DO NOT WANT MY SO. TO EVER DRIVE IT. IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE A SECOND CAR FOR HIM TO DRIVE BUT ITS UNSAFE. I WANT CHRYSLER TO PAY ME OUT OF MY LOAN AS I NEVER WANT TO DRIVE THIS CAR AGAIN AND I STILL OWE $15,000 ON THIS CAR.

CHRYSLER ISSUED A RECALL FOR ALL 2011 THROUGH 2014 CHRYSLER 300 MODELS DUE TO AN INTERNAL PARTS FAILURE ON THE ALTERNATOR. ON JUNE 9, 2017 MY VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY WHEN ATTEMPTING TO START THE VEHICLE. I RECEIVED A RESERVE POWER ENABLED ERROR MESSAGE AND PROMPTLY TURNED THE VEHICLE OFF. UPON RESTARTING THE VEHICLE I HEARD A WHINING NOISE UNDER THE HOOD. I ONCE AGAIN TURNED THE VEHICLE OFF AND OPENED THE HOOD. I THEN NOTICE THE ALTERNATOR WAS ON FIRE WITH SIGNIFICANT SMOKE. AFTER 30 MINUTES OF SEVERE SMOKE AND FLAME FROM THE ALTERNATOR THE VEHICLE HAD NO POWER AT ALL. I HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO A DEALER WHICH REPLACED THE ALTERNATOR AND THE BATTERY BECAUSE THE ALTERNATOR HAD BURNED UP THE BATTERY ALONG WITH INTERNAL COMPONENT FAILURE ON THE ALTERNATOR. I PAID THE DEALER $ 1,274.09 FOR THE REPAIR. THE DEALER STATEMENT INDICATED INTERNAL FAILURE ON THE ALTERNATOR. 4 WEEKS LATER CHRYSLER ANNOUNCED A RECALL ON THE 2011 THROUGH 2014 CHRYSLER 300 ALTERNATOR FOR "INTERNAL COMPONENT FAILURE COULD CAUSE ALTERNATOR TOTAL FAILURE AND FIRE". CHRYSLER IS REFUSING TO ACKNOWLEDGE MY VEHICLE UNDER THIS RECALL STATING THAT THE CHRYSLER 300 IS THE ONLY MODEL IMPACTED USING A 160 AMP ALTERNATOR AND THAT MY VEHICLE, A CHRYSLER 300 S MODEL USES A 180 AMP ALTERNATOR AND IS NOT COVERED UNDER THIS RECALL. ALL THE WHILE THE WRITE UP IN THE RECALL NOTICE MATCHES THE EXACT WRITE UP FROM THE TECHNICIAN WHO REPAIRED MY VEHICLE AT A CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP 4 WEEKS PRIOR TO THE RECALL ANNOUNCEMENT. I WOULD LIKE FOR CHRYSLER TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE FAILURE IN MY ALTERNATOR, WHICH CAUGHT ON FIRE, AS COVERED UNDER THIS RECALL AND REFUND ME MY $ 1,274.09 DUE TO VEHICLE SAFETY ISSUE.

ON 20170731 MY 2013 CHRYSLER 300S SHOWED BATTERY SAVER INDICATOR ON IGNITION. IT ALSO EMITTED A FUNNY SMELL. I PARKED THE VEHICLE. AAA CAME OUT, AND THE TECHNICIAN CHANGED THE BATTERY. WHEN THE CAR WAS STARTED. WHAT THE TECHNICIAN IDENTIFIED AS THE ALTERNATOR STARTING SMOKING AND GLOWING. IT HAD BEEN THE SOURCE OF THE SMELL. HE HAD TO THROW HIS WATER ON IT TO PUT IT OUT. I READ AN ARTICLE CNBC.COM FROM 20170714 SAYING CHRYSLER 300 VEHICLES HAD ALTERNATOR FIRE RISKS: HTTPS://WWW.CNBC.COM/2017/07/14/FIAT-CHRYSLER-RECALLS-1-POINT-33-MILLION-VEHICLES.HTML . I NEVER RECEIVED NOTIFICATION FROM CHRYSLER OF SUCH A RECALL EVEN THOUGH THE LOCAL SERVICE OFFICE HAS HAD MY ADDRESS AND PHONE NUMBER FOR ABOUT A YEAR. AFTER TOWING TO CHRYSLER SERVICE IN SAN JOSE, THE SERVICE MANAGER IN SAN JOSE AND THEIR ONLINE CHAT HELP PERSON SAID THAT THE RECALL DIDN'T APPLY TO MY SPECIFIC VEHICLE. ADDITIONALLY, THE REP REFUTED THAT THE ANNOUNCED RECALL WAS FOR AN ALTERNATOR EVEN THOUGH THE ARTICLE CLEARLY SAYS "THE AUTOMAKER IS ALSO RECALLING 565,000 VEHICLES TO REPLACE THEIR ALTERNATORS BECAUSE OF FIRE RISKS. THE COMPANY SAID HOT AMBIENT TEMPERATURES COULD LEAD TO PREMATURE DIODE WEAR, MAY RESULT IN A BURNING ODOR OR SMOKE, COULD IMPACT THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM OR LEAD TO ENGINE STALLS." THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT I EXPERIENCED AND THE ARTICLE SAYS IT APPLIED TO MY YEAR MAKE AND MODEL OF VEHICLE. I NEED TO MAKE SURE CHRYSLER/DODGE IS FOLLOWING UP ON THIS ISSUE BECAUSE PEOPLE COULD DIE. NOT ONLY AM I ON THE HOOK FOR $1K IN COSTS FOR SOMETHING THAT LOOKS LIKE A MANUFACTURER HAZARD. I ALSO DON'T KNOW IF RELATED EXAMINATION/REPLACEMENT WILL OCCUR ON MY VEHICLE... I NEED TO KNOW THAT PROPER PRECAUTION IS TAKEN. FOR REFERENCE THE AAA CONTRACTED TECHNICIAN WAS FROM GREAT AMERICA TOW IN SAN JOSE, CA. I CAN PROVIDE A REFERENCE NUMBER FOR HIS VISIT IF CONTACTED. HE MAY PROVIDE MORE USEFUL OBSERVATIONS.

I WASN'T DRIVING MY VEHICLE ON A BUSY HIGHWAY. THE VEHICLES ELECTRICAL SYSTEM STARTED GOING CRAZY. HEAT TURNED ON, WINDSHIELD WIPERS TURNED ON, BLINKERS GOING OFF, RADIO TURNED OFF. POWER STEERING, GAS AND BRAKES STOPPED WORKING. WAS STUCK IN THE MIDDLE OF A BUSY HIGHWAY BECAUSE OF THIS AND LUCKY I DID NOT GET HIT BECAUSE OF THE SPOT I WAS IN. I GOT THE CAR TOWED AND SENT TO A MECHANIC. IT WAS THE ALTERNATOR THAT WENT BAD AND IT BURNED THE BATTERY SO HAD TO GET THAT REPLACES AS WELL. VERY DANGEROUS WITH NO WARNING SIGNS. I HAVE HEARD THIS PROBLEM IS COMMON IN THESE VEHICLES.

SAME PROBLEM THAT OCCURS WITH KNOWN RECALL P60 - NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V634000; CHRYSLER 300 WHILE I WAS DRIVING MY VEHICLE SHUT DOWN COMPLETELY IN THE MIDDLE OF A HEAVILY POPULATED CITY 3 LANE ROAD WHILE I WAS DRIVING AT AN UNKNOWN SPEED (35-40 MPH) SINCE MY DIGITAL DISPLAY SCREEN AND SPEEDOMETER MALFUNCTIONED. WHILE DRIVING MY CAR CUT OFF COMPLETELY WITH THE ONLY WARING BEING "BATTERY SAVER MODE" THAT OCCURRED LESS THAN 5 MINS PRIOR TO MY CAR SHUTTING OFF. IT APPEARS THE MY ALTERNATOR FAILED CAUSING ENGINE STALL, THUS INCREASING THE RISK OF CRASH, SINCE NO WARNING IS ISSUED. HAD IT NOT BEEN FOR THE COP THAT PULLED UP BEHIND ME, I WOULD HAVE CAUSED AN ACCIDENT ON THAT STREET IN WHICH THE POLICE OFFICER WOULD HAVE BLAMED ME FOR. MY CAR IS CURRENTLY AT THE DEALERSHIP WITH A "ALTERNATOR" REPAIR. THIS REPAIR DOESN'T APPLY TO THE CURRENT RECALL FROM 10/8/2014 BECAUSE I HAVE A 180 AMP ALTERNATOR WITH A 3.6L ENGINE, BUT NOT A 160 AMP ALTERNATOR WITH A 3.6L ENGINE.

THEY INFORMED ME THAT THE ALTERNATOR HAD FAILED AND FRIED THE BATTERY. SINCE I HAVE THE 180AMP ALTERNATOR IT IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE CURRENT RECALL. FROM MY RESEARCH IT SEEMS THAT THE 180AMP ALTERNATOR ARE HAVE THE EXACT SAME ISSUES AS THE 160AMP ALTERNATORS THAT ARE CURRENTLY BEING RECALLED.

I HAVE A 2013 CHRYSLER 300S. WHILE DRIVING AT A SPEED AROUND 45 MPH IN CITY DRIVING, CAR STALLED IN THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION WHILE TURNING LEFT AT FRONT OF ONCOMING TRAFFIC. SECONDS LATER THE CAR SHUT OFF COMPLETELY LEAVING ME WITH NO OR LITTLE CONTROL OVER STEERING. THE RADIO TURNED OFF, LIGHTS IN CAR STARTED FLASHING ON AND OFF, SCREENS ON THE DASH TURNED WHITE, AND ALL ERROR LIGHTS ON DASH TURNED ON. BURNING ELECTRICAL/RUBBER SMELL FILLED THE CAR. ALL ISSUES IDENTICAL TO THE NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V634000. I CHECKED MY VIN TO SEE IF MY CAR WOULD BE COVERED BUT IT WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. UPON FURTHER RESEARCH THERE HAS BEEN NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ON EXACT MODELS OF MY CAR THAT WERE ALSO NOT COVERED. I AM VERY THANKFUL MY CAR WAS ABLE TO GET OUT OF THE WAY OF ONCOMING TRAFFIC BEFORE ANOTHER VEHICLE HIT US BECAUSE MY KIDS OR MYSELF PROBABLY WOULD HAVE BEEN SERIOUSLY INJURED OR EVEN WORST, KILLED. ONCE CAR CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP, I TRIED RESTARTING THE VEHICLE. THE CAR WOULD TRY TO START BUT THE ENGINE WOULD NOT EVEN BE ABLE TO TURN OVER. ALL LIGHTS AND SWITCHES INSIDE THE CAR WERE NOT WORKING PROPERLY. LIGHTS TURNING ON AND OFF, HEATER WAS BLOWING WHEN WE HAD IT SET TO AC, PUSHING ON THE BREAK WOULD TURN OFF ALL LIGHTS IN THE CAR, ETC. I HOPE WITH ALL THE MULTIPLE COMPLAINT, AND POTENTIAL TO CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY, THEY WILL CONSIDER RECALLING THE ADDITIONAL MODELS OF ALTERNATORS THEY ARE CLEARLY HAVING THE SAME DEFECTS.

EXACT SAME SYMPTOMS CUSTOMERS ARE REPORTING FOR NHSTA CAMPAIGN 1V634000. HOWEVER, MY CAR IS NOT COVERED BECAUSE IT HAS A 180 AMP ALTERNATOR AND THE RECALL IS FOR 160 AMP ALTERNATORS. I HAD SUDDEN ELECTRICAL BURNING SMELL INSIDE CAR AND SMOKE COMING FROM UNDER THE HOOD. DEALER REPLACED ALTERNATOR UNDER MY SERVICE CONTRACT (OUT OF WARRANT) SO IT COST ME $100.00 INSTEAD OF 700-900 DOLLARS. IT PRETTY CLEAR THESE 180 AMP ALTERNATORS SHOULD BE INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. CHRYSLER ONLY CARES ABOUT THEIR BOTTOM LINE. I WANT MY $100.00 BACK CHRYSLER.

WHILE DRIVING MY 2013 300S THE LIGHTS ON MY DASH BEGAN TO FLASH. A FEW MINUTES LATER MY RADIO CUT OFF AND WOULD NOT CUT BACK ON. ABOUT A MINUTE LATER I GOT A MESSAGE ON THE DASH THAT SAID "BATTERY SAVER MODE". I HAD NO IDEA WHAT WAS GOING ON AND ALL OF A SUDDEN MY THE CAR JUST SHUT DOWN. I HAD NO CONTROL OVER THE CAR, NO BRAKES, NO STEERING... NOTHING. LUCKILY I WAS NOT IN A POSITION WHERE I NEEDED TO AVOID HITTING OTHER CARS BECAUSE I COULD NOT STEER. I THEN STARTED TO SMELL BURNING RUBBER. AFTER THE CAR CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP THE LIGHTS STARTED FLASHING AGAIN AND THEN THE WIPERS CAME ON. (THEY WERE NOT TURNED ON.) THE WIPERS SLOWED AND THEN THE CAR WENT TOTALLY DEAD (AGAIN). I GOOGLED "BATTERY SAVER MODE" AND SAW THAT IT WAS MY ALTERNATOR. I THEN SAW THAT CHRYSLER HAD A RECALL OUT FOR THEIR ALTERNATORS SO I CALLED THEIR RECALL CENTER. I WAS TOLD THAT, "YES, THERE WAS A RECALL." AND I HAD THE RIGHT KIND OF CAR AND THE RIGHT ENGINE BUT MY ALTERNATOR WAS 180 AMPS. (THEY ONLY RECALLED THE 160 AMPS.) I READ MOST OF THE COMPLAINTS AND THEIR EXPERIENCE WAS ALMOST IDENTICAL TO MINE. AND I ALSO READ THAT THERE WERE PEOPLE WITH THE 180 AMPS HAD THE SAME EXPERIENCE AND WAS ALSO TOLD THE SAME THING AS I WAS TOLD BY CHRYSLER ("AT THIS TIME WE ONLY HAVE A RECALL OUT FOR 160 AMP ALTERNATORS. SAVE YOUR RECEIPT AND IF AND WHEN WE DO A RECALL ON THE 180 AMPS WE WILL REIMBURSE YOU."). REALLY!? MY TOTAL COST WAS $1260 (ALTERNATOR, BATTERY AND A BELT). COME ON CHRYSLER YOU KNOW THAT THESE ALTERNATORS ARE BAD (BOTH 160 AND 180)! I GUESS UNTIL SOMEONE REPORTS A DEATH THEY WON'T RECALL THE 180 AMP. I WOULD TELL ANY BUYER OF THE 300 TO BEWARE. I PERSONALLY WILL NEVER PURCHASE A CHRYSLER AGAIN. (I HAVE OWNED 2.) NO MATTER HOW COOL THEY LOOK.

ON 7.4.16 AT APPROXIMATELY 9PM, I WAS AT A TRAFFIC INTERSECTION WAITING FOR THE LIGHT TO TURN GREEN. SUDDENLY, MY CAR RADIO SHUT DOWN, AND ON THE INFORMATION SCREEN, A 'BATTERY SAFE MODE' MESSAGE APPEARED. THEN THE LIGHTS WENT DIM, THE INFO-SCREEN FLASHED WHITE, AND THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS STARTED MOVING VERY SLOWLY. AT THAT POINT, I TRIED TO PUT THE CAR IN NEUTRAL AND SHUT IT OFF, BUT THE SHIFTER WAS NOT RESPONSIVE. THEN, ALL THE SCREENS WENT OUT AND THE CAR DIED. I CALLED MY ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE TO COME TO EITHER JUMP OR TOW MY CAR. THE TECHNICIAN SHOWED UP AND TRIED TO JUMP START THE VEHICLE, BUT TO NO AVAIL. THE CAR WAS THEN TOWED TO A REPAIR SHOP. THE REPAIR SHOP DISCOVERED THAT THE 180 AMP ALTERNATOR WAS FRIED (IN THEIR WORDS) AND THE ALTERNATOR FRIED THE BATTERY AS WELL. THE REPAIRS TOTALED APPROXIMATELY NINE HUNDRED DOLLARS! (NOTE) THE FIRST NEW ALTERNATOR THEY INSTALLED WAS FAULTY. FOR A CAR UNDER 3 YEARS OLD, MAINTAINED IMPECCABLY, THIS IS RIDICULOUS TO HAVE AN ALTERNATOR FAIL IN SUCH A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME. I FILED A COMPLAINT WITH CHRYSLER CORP. AND DISCOVERED THAT THERE WAS A RECALL ON A 160 AMP ALTERNATOR IN THE CHRYSLER 300. I ASKED AND THEY ADVISED ME THAT THE MANUFACTURER FOR BOTH THE 160 AND 180 AMP ALTERNATORS IS THE SAME. THE RECALL (OCTOBER 8, 2014) FOR THE SMALLER 160 AMP ALTERNATOR IS ; NHTSA RECALL #14V-634, AND CHRYSLER RECALL # P60 RESPECTIVELY. IT SEEMS LIKE THE PROBLEM EXISTS ON BOTH ALTERNATORS. CHRYSLER CORP. SHOULD TAKE A PROACTIVE AND NOT REACTIVE STANCE AT THIS POINT.

THE CHRYSLER 300C WAS PARKED IN OUR GARAGE FOR ABOUT A WEEK. TRIED TO START IT AND NOTHING HAPPENED. ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL (ETC) LIGHT FLASHED. ALL SYMPTOMS POINTED TO A LOW BATTERY. JUMP STARTED 300 FROM OUR OTHER CAR AND DROVE TO THE DEALER. BY THE TIME I GOT THERE THE BATTERY WAS CHARGED FROM THE GENERATOR. DEALER KEPT IT FOR 5 DAYS AND COULDN'T FIND A PROBLEM. THERE WERE OTHER ANOMALIES ON THE ROAD. CAR WOULD EITHER NOT ACCELERATE OR ENGINE WOULD STALL WHILE DRIVING. THIS BECAME EXTREMELY DANGEROUS ON THE INTERSTATE. COUPLE WEEKS PASSED AND START PROBLEM REPEATED, BUT THIS TIME THE BATTERY WAS COMPLETELY DEAD. ONE SYMPTOM I NOTICED WAS THAT THE BRAKE PEDAL, WHICH YOU HAVE TO DEPRESS WHILE ACTIVATING THE PUSH BUTTON START WAS LOCKED AND WOULDN'T MOVE. REPEATED THE ABOVE DRILL WITH THE SAME RESULTS. THIS TIME, DEALER HAD THE CAR FOR 11 DAYS AND COULDN'T FIND PROBLEM. ALL ALONG I'M PAYING LEASE AND AUTO INSURANCE FEES FOR A CAR THAT'S SITTING AT THE DEALER. DEALER SAID THEY UPDATED SOME OF THE ELECTRONIC CONTROLLERS PER SOME TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETINS, BUT THAT THEY WEREN'T RELATED TO MY "NO START/DEAD BATTERY" ISSUES. CHRYSLER CUSTOMER SERVICE SAID THEY KNEW OF NO COMPLAINTS, RECALLS, ETC. RELATED TO THE ABOVE. HAVE NOT EXPERIENCED ANY PROBLEMS RECENTLY. HOWEVER, I'VE BEEN STARTING THE 300 MORE OFTEN AND LETTING IT RUN. I RECENTLY GOT A 2014 DODGE JOURNEY WHICH ENDED UP WITH A DEAD BATTERY AFTER BEING PARKED FOR 5 DAYS. I FILED A SEPARATE COMPLAINT ON THE JOURNEY. HAVE SINCE BOUGHT A TRICKLE CHARGER. CAN'T BELIEVE THESE ARE COINCIDENCES. THERE IS NO QUESTION CHRYSLER HAS A BASIC DESIGN PROBLEM.

THIS WAS DURING A PHONE CONVERSATION WHEN THE PERSON HADN'T EVEN SEEN THE VEHICLE. IT WAS ALSO BEFORE I COULD SAY ANYTHING ABOUT THE NUMEROUS POSTS ABOUT THE ALTERNATOR/REGULATOR GOING BAD AND KILLING THE BATTERY. *TR
