general problems of the 2005 Chrysler 300

Reverse gear went out after vehicle slipped once, acted as if in neutral when in reverse and pressing gas pedal down but would not move. Had local towing and mechanic shop in gower missouri check transmission fluid level in which was found to be a quart low on transmission fluid. Car had been extremely well maintained and all recommended maintenance services completed by previous owners. Able to drive car in all other gears, codes p0007 code appear with no check engine light or any type of warning or indication that a problem was present within my 2005 Chrysler 300 3. 5l v6 rwd car with the 42rle transmission my vehicle also has issues occur suddenly regarding front end suspension has death shake and very loud clinking popping banging noises while driving at all speeds. Steering wheel has a weird squeek/creeking noise when turning the wheel at times and feels like steering is loose. Tie rod end and sway link bar on front passenger right side of vehicle is bent opposite direction it is supposed to and car also has higher rpm than normal and shifting at higher rpms. Went into limp mode twice which I reset myself due to having an emergency where I had to drive it. With the suspension and steering issues it causes a safety risk due to sway link and tie rod end breaking causing vehicle to crash and wheel to detach from vehicle. Transmission gear loss due to transmission fluid leaking and gear linkage issues causes safety risk due to the event of reversing to move out of the way and to avoid potential harm to passengers (my 5 young children) within the vehicle in the event the vehicle can't move from the place parked. The vehicle is available to be inspection and has been checked out by 3 different mechanic shops located in gower, saint joseph, and savannah missouri all in which stateed verbally that low fluid due to leak somewhere from transmission and poor linkage components within gear solenoid and possible pcm and mil issues to be at fault of vehicle mufacture.

I was driving in the fast lane on the interstate and all of a sudden the car began to shut down. It took all my might to move the car from the fast lane to the median, which was on the opposite side of the slow lane. I could have easily been killed due to the speeds of the cars around me. This was the most frightening situation I've ever been in!! I am not due for an oil change until next month. The car never sounded funny or anything.

Car stalls 6 to 9 times after gas fillup.

Car shaking like tires about to fall off, had it check and it was my tire rods and need a front end alignment and tires.

I have a 2005 300c that I bought in April 2007, it only had 14425, miles, when I tested drove it, I notice that it was pulling to the right, I thought it was a low tire, and I was in love with the car from the time I saw it. As weeks went by and after placing air in all tires, the car continued to pull to the right. So I called the dealership and stated my problem, they asked me to come in. I told them the problem that I was having and they recommend a wheel alignment that I paid for. I drove it home and noticed that it was doing the same thing, pulling to the right, I called them and made another appointment, this time the said it was the tires, so I replaced the tires and put the goodyear assurance on it, and again paid for that. I took off again for home, and noticed the same problem. I turned the car around and went back to the dealer, and told them it was not fixed. They said to me that Chrysler knows about the problem, after I have spent the money myself trying to repair a problem when I still have bumper to bumper cover, that when Chrysler come out with a fix I would be notified. This is wrong, and Chrysler should repair the problem, and give us back our money that we have spent in trying to repair something that they know about. Updated 11/26/07.

Ever since I purchased my Chrysler 300c in August or sept of 2004 it has pulled to the right. I have had the front end re-aligned on 3 separate occasions without success. The dealers always over-inflate the tires to 35 psi to mask the problem.

: the contact stated the vehicle steering continually pulled to the right while driving 45 mph. The service dealer performed front alignments on 6 separate occasions and replaced both front tires, but could not identify the problem. The steering continued to pull to the right. The manufacturer was not notified. Updated 9/5/2006 -.

I noticed that when I drive my car it pulls to the right. I took it to the dealer to have it fixed and the serviceman said that the problem was fixed it just needed an alignment. I left the dealership and drove down the hwy and it began to pull to the right again. I went back to the repair shop and they said to me that the alignment machine said that it was aligned just perfect. So I took the repairman on a test drive and again it pull to the right. So back to the repair shop we went and they replace a bolt or something to that effect(TSB) and it still pulls to the right. I notice a lot of the 05 models have that problem, but it seems as though Chrysler has fixed the problem on the 06 and newer models. When you hit divot in the rd. The front end shakes and basically the front tires actually leave the rd. For a brief second. The problem has not been corrected yet and all that the serviceman tells me is that is the way the car was design. (which I doubt seriously) if that was the case then I and a lot of other owners of the Chrysler 300 wouldn't have purchase the vehicle.

Leads to the right. Appears to be uncorrectable?.

This vehicle (as I understand, this and may others) is experiencing a pull to right. It has been in the shop numerous times and has had the TSB (camb. Bolt) performed 2 times. Purchased this car in August and have had this problem right from the begining. . . Now we are at the end of April and it is not fixed. We have had all tires replaced for wear (and have been told that this has nothing to do with alignment) this vehicle's production date is very early. Apparently Chrysler has since fixed the problem on newer 300's being produced. . . . But can seem to fix the older ones. At this point I am questioning whether this can be repaired.

I have a 2005 Chrysler 300 made in August of 2004. It has an issue, as many of these and Dodge magnums do, with pulling to the right while driving. This is a very dangerous issue and should be looked into! my car has been in the shop 3 times and I have only had it for 2 weeks! my car keep swirving right and I keep having to pull it back. The dealer keeps giving my excuses and Chrysler is denying that there is a problem. This is a very real problem! it almost caused an accident on April 2nd, 2005!.

My Chrysler 300 has 7000 miles on it and has been to the shop 3 times for a front end alignment problem,car pulls to the right shop says it is supposed to follow the crown in the road ( I was born at night but not last night ) come on Chrysler you can come up with a better excuse than that. This is a recall problem they should be forced to fix this. All dealers are being told to use this excuse ,about the car is supposed to follow the crown or it is a heck of a coincedence that this complaint keeps coming up.

2005 Chrysler 300 experiencing serious problems with steering. During the sub zero temperatures this winter, the consumer stated the steering would freeze. The lower the temperature would drop the harder the vehicle became to steer. The dealer showed the consumer a service bulletin outlining the problem, but was not provided a solution.

My car pulls to the right while driving. I have taken this in to the dealer three or four times and have been told that all of the 2005 300s do that. If I want to see if an alignment will correct it, I will have to pay for it myself.
