general problems of the 2006 Chrysler 300

When the transmission is cold the vehicle stalls having no control over forward or reverse motion with dangerous side bound traffic instances while refusing to shift with rwd rear axel severe vibration sensitivity causing total rwd rear axel power loss & coiciding transmission abnormalities. Powertrain malfunctions/dysfunctions resulting in a dangerously faulty suspensions stability & braking pressure strength causing pull in passenger side direction where vehicle seems dangerously the weakest & exhaust fumes abnormally recycling into vehicle cab system. Only has 140k original miles. Manufacture defects now becoming death trap & safety disaster to potential lives of others.

Drivers side tire suspension collapsed while backing up, had car towed to dealer across street for evaluation.

1. The power steering on the car want let the steering wheeling turn some time it happen mostly in the morning time. 2. The front suspension keep waring out tires very quilty I had the front end line more than one but that don"t help 3. The brakes want hold some time when I go to stop real fast I have to pump them more than onece the brake have been change I need to know if thare someing wrong whis parts. Also when I first bought the car the brakes gave out and the Chrysler head break staff group came to look at it.

Transmission is going out every two years.

Tl - the contact owns a 2006 Chrysler 300. The contact stated that while driving approximately 60 mph, a loud rattle noise was heard from the driver's side of the vehicle. In addition, the vehicle jerked abnormally and without warning. The vehicle was taken to a private mechanic where it was diagnosed that the rocker arm assembly needed to be replaced. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure and current mileage was 110,458. Kmj.

The engine started ticking noticeably on the upper right side of the engine. The noise was typical of a lifter or worn rocker arm. About a month earlier the car had a shifting problem with the automatic transmission on an interstate highway under acceleration. The car was checked for the transmission problem at a Chrysler dealership but nothing was found after diagnostic testing was completed they did advise they found the strut bushings were in need of replacement. After hearing the engine noises the car was again taken to the Chrysler dealership. Both sides of the engine had the rocker arm assemblies replaced. The bushings for the struts were replaced. Both of the tie rod ends were found to be in need of replacement while they were trying to realign the front end. The alignment was needed after replacing the strut bushings. The car was well maintained and oil changes & lubes were done at or near every 3,500 miles. There are a massive amount of replacements/repairs being done for these particular parts failing at a low mileage. These parts are failing prematurely and Chrysler should take the initiative & recall these components. Reimbursing customers that have become dissatisfied with their cars and it's manufacturer are being burdened with unnecessary repair costs. I was fortunate enough to have purchased an extended warranty which covered all the costs (over $2,000. 00) . I still had to pay the deductible. Nhtsa needs to find out what is happening and hold the manufacturer accountable. This was the first time I had to have repairs done since purchasing the car in 2008 with about 30,000 miles on the odometer. Dependability is one of the most important parts of owning a car and we all pay a lot of money to purchase/lease them. Paying for routine maintenance is expected but exorbitant repair costs are unacceptable when a car is properly cared for and not abused.
