Chrysler 300 2012 — Problemas reportados

This vehicle has just been a nightmare. I would never buy another Chrysler or tell anyone to buy this POS. I should have listened to my wife when she said they are POS cars and have electrical issues and manufacture doesnt recall them because they know they made of POS car with this issue. My 300c has been having electrical issues, battery drainage, flickering problems, stalling issues, and some much more. I have paid thousands in replacement in battery cost thinking it was battery. My blended door actuator has been replaced 3 times still makes noise. It over heats and my antifreeze has to be replaced every couple of days. Almost got in accident on road with my daughter in car because car stalled on highway. It would have been a bad accident going over 70 on highway with my baby girl in back seat if I got hit with her in car. Im glad guy quickly merged to other lane to avoid hitting me. Was able to steer car to side of road. I was able to get car jumped with wife's truck to use my car several times because it would never start on its own. Its just continuous. Found out its the TIPM and looked it up. Wow so many issues from this brand its ridiculous that company doesnt do anything about it. They dont want to pay out the cost to fix their issue and nhtsa doesnt do anything about it either. If I had that accident I would be definitely suing these both companies for knowing about it and doing absolutely nothing. This car has been such a hassle ive put so much money into it for all the things going wrong but everything happening was my TIPM needs replacement. Never by a Chrysler. My car doesnt start anymore sitting in driveway. Just junk taking up space cant move it. Got it towed twice to my house it died out.

Vehicle received passenger airbag inflator recall service at Viva CDJR in El Paso, TX. The dash disassembly disturbed adjacent wiring/BCM connections, and after driving, vibration caused a short/ground fault, creating runaway wipers, A/C failure, transmission limp mode, check engine and power steering lights while in transit. Dealer has kept the car for over two weeks and refuses to scan diagnostic trouble codes or inspect the recall-adjacent wiring harness. The vehicle has never experienced this issue prior to the recall service.

Gas fumes filled the cabin. I am suffering from headaches from smelling in fumes. This is dangerous and health issues. The gas tank is under passage back seat and costs $2,235 to replace primary and transfer pumps. Is this covered by a recall?

I was involved in a hit and run on March 2,2026 and the airbags did not deploy at all. My car was taken to ray lathem dealership when there was a recall pertaining to the airbags back in 2019. I was told everything was corrected. Now fast forward to March 2,2026 no airbags deployed at all from the impact of crash. That was the first thing the police and ambulance asked and saw. Myself and My fiancee both were taken to the hospital.

PARKING AID CAMERA FAILED

Date: February 22, 2026 VIA CERTIFIED MAIL FCA US LLC Customer Care P.O. Box 21-8004 Auburn Hills, MI 48321-8004 RE: FORMAL COMPLAINT – Safety Defect (Rearview Camera Failure) Vehicle 1: 2012 Chrysler 300S (VIN: [XXX] ) Vehicle 2: 2018 Chrysler 300S (VIN: [XXX] ) To the Chrysler Customer Care Team: I am a loyal, multi-vehicle Chrysler owner currently residing in San Diego County. I am writing to formally report a persistent and dangerous safety defect affecting both of my Chrysler 300S vehicles. Description of Defect: In both vehicles, the factory-installed backup camera has failed completely. When the vehicles are shifted into reverse, the infotainment screen remains blank or black. This failure significantly reduces rearward visibility, creating a severe safety risk for pedestrians and property, especially given the known blind spots of the 300S model. Legal and Safety Context: As you are aware, Chrysler has issued multiple recent recalls (including Recall 24V-436) regarding rearview camera software failures. Furthermore, for the 2018 model, Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 111 mandates a functional rear visibility system. The identical failure across two different model years suggests a fundamental defect in the camera hardware or wiring harnesses used in this vehicle line. Requested Resolution: As a long-term supporter of the Chrysler brand, I am requesting a Goodwill Repair for both vehicles. I ask that Chrysler authorize a local authorized dealer in San Diego (Chula Vista/National City) to inspect and repair these camera systems at no cost to me. Please respond to this request in writing within 10 business days. I have also opened a report with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) to document these failures. Sincerely, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Car accelerated on its own and refused to stop when brakes were applied. This occurrence jeopardized my safety and the safety of others on the road. Once I realized that no one was behind me I had to slam the car into neutral for it to stop moving abruptly so I wouldn't run into the the car in front of me, but the engine kept revving up high. I then turned it off. Which left me in a dangerous position and blocking traffic.

I never received a noticed.

There is a hairline crack on top of the Fuel Pump Plastic Housing cause leak on top of the housing. Fuel Vapor in AC present as well as inside and outside the car.

Luckily a car wasn't in the other lane so the truck went on the other side of the road. I was terrified! I called 911 to get a deputy dispatch to direct traffic around my car to avoid mutiple COLLISION. I had to have my vehicle towed. I never want another Chrysler again these cars are UNSAFE.

CAR IS APPARENTLY STUCK IN LIMP MODE IDK I'M SO CONFUSED AND DISAPPOINTED. I reported the issue to Chrysler recall line and they did NOTHING.

My vehicle stalls when placed from reverse to drive and the check engine light blinks and goes to Eco mode which makes the car shake.

recall notice for passenger air bag was sent three years ago. Vehicle was brought to dealership and held for a week to replace air bag. Vehicle was returned with air bag NOT replaced. I was told to wait for a call when they receive more air bags and they would schedule for replacement. As of today, three years later, I am being told the air bags are still not available for purchase or replacement under recall.

Car will shut off in mid drive with no notice. I took it to the dealership multiple times and spent over $3,000 in repairs they still haven’t fixed the problem. I’m scared I will get into a accident or worse because this problem Continuously happens it has happened on the highway it happens on the street. I don’t know what else to do the dealership does not know what the problem is.
