This car is a lemon! I see other people's issues and I cannot believe this car hasn't been totally recalled and overhauled! every month since I got it ( my first used car!). . It was at rental company for 1 1/2 years then I was the sucker that bought it! the tie rods go once a year and mechanics 'all talk who Chrysler made them bad I guess" then the goodyear intregrity's hydroplane. . . . The suspension sounds like beverly hillbillies. . . I was told that the noises I hear are not the shocks I had replaced but are now the actual front arm controls of my car that are rotting away. . . Another thing is the engine "kicks in hard" when going into 2nd shift (automatic). . The horn is hard to press. . The front tires rub, you can hear then when turning even though I am up to date on rotors and pads. . . Let's see what else OH yes just paid $400 because the car started to overheat so when I was there getting that fixed I told them how my car has always had condensation on it in the winter. . I can chisel off the ice particles on the inside! they said I needed a whole new housing of some sorts fixed so they did that. . Hum what else? OH now the engine light is on and the car is chugging and jerking like I'm in a farmer's tractor! it's 10/2013 and I have 2 more years to go to pay. . . I have no more $$$ thanks Chrysler. . God bless America. . . 2 more to pay on this. . I should have stuck with Honda or go Toyota!.
Tl-the contact owns a 2008 Chrysler 300c. While the contact was driving approximately 45 mph, the front end of the vehicle began to shake during braking. The vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer on three separate occasions for the similar failure where the front brake pads were replaced each time. The third occurrence, the front rotors were resurfaced with the replacement of the front brake pads. The failure recurred after 11,000 miles. The vehicle had not been repaired for the most recent failure. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and they informed there was not a recall related to the problem. The approximate failure mileage was 6,681. Js.
Front brake rotors and pads are vibrating severely, I had the pads & rotors replaced by the dealer and within 30 days the problem was back. Everytime the pedal is depressed I hear noise from the front of the car plus shaking.
