THE AIR CONDITIONING STOPPED WORKING WITH ONLY 20,000KM ON THE VEHICLE. MY FRIEND HAS A NEW CHRYSLER WITH 200KM ON IT WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. CHRYSLER IS NOT WILLING TO PAY FOR IT EVEN THOUGH ITS A KNOWN ISSUE. VERY POOR SERVICE AND SUPPORT FROM THEM

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHRYSLER 300C. WHILE DRIVING 70 MPH ON THE FREEWAY, THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED AND THE SERVICE ELECTRONIC CONTROL MODULE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED.

- Air bags
THE SERVICE ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL, SERVICE AIR BAGS AND SERVICE ANTILOCK BRAKE SYSTEM INDICATOR MESSAGES CAME ON IN MY 2015 CHRYSLER 300C. AFTER DIAGNOSTIC, A CODE CAME UP THAT MY HEADLIGHT HOUSING HAS A SHORT IN IT. I HAVE REPLACED THE HEADLIGHT BULBS SEVERAL TIME SINCE I'VE HAS THE CAR. IT WAS ALSO FOUND THAT THERE IS A MANUFACTURER RECALL ON PARTS OF THE AIR BAG SYSTEM BUT THAT DIDN'T SOLVE MY ISSUES. AFTER SPENDING SEVERAL HUNDRED DOLLARS ON ELECTRICAL PARTS AND LABOR I FEEL THAT CHRYSLER NEEDS TO TAKE A CLOSER LOOK AT ALL OF THE SIMILAR COMPLAINTS ON A CAR THAT IS ONLY 4 YEARS OLD. ALL OF THE INDICATOR MESSAGES CAME ON WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION. I DRIVE MAINLY IN A HIGHWAY…

VEHICLE LOST POWER STEERING ONLY TO REGAIN IT SOME 20 MILES DOWN THE ROAD CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO SWERVE. TRANS WOULD NOT UP…
- Steering
MY CAR IS TRAMLINING. IN OTHER WORDS, MY CAR HAS THE TENDENCY TO FOLLOW IMPERFECTIONS IN THE ROAD AND ENDS UP YANKING THE STEERING WHEEL OUT OF MY HANDS WHENEVER THE FRONT TIRES FIND A RUT IN THE ROAD. THIS HAS CAUSED MY CAR TO DANGEROUSLY PULL TOWARDS ONCOMING TRAFFIC. ALSO, MY RADIO PRESET BUTTONS ON ENTERTAINMENT CENTER SOMETIMES DON'T FUNCTION WHEN INITIALLY STARTING MY CAR LEADING TO THE INABILITY TO CHANGE RADIO STATIONS. THE BUTTONS FOR MY HEATED SEATS AND HEATED STEERING WHEEL ON MY ENTERTAINMENT CENTER START-UP SCREEN SOMETIMES WILL NOT REMAIN ON AFTER ACTIVATING THEM, WHICH RESULTS IN HAVING TO REACTIVATE THEM THROUGH THE SECONDARY ACCESS MENU AFTER THE INITIAL START-UP SCREEN…
- Electrical system
DRIVER'S SIDE DOESN'T BLOW HOT AIR WHEN DEFROSTER IS ON OR AIR IS ON. I'VE ALREADY HAD TO FIX IT 2 TIMES.
