My 18 year old son was driving the car at about 40-50 miles an hour on a very busy street in bellevue washington, a city he's not familiar with when the car suddenly shifted into park and would no longer accelerate. He had to think quickly and by the grace of god he was able to momentarily get the car in drive and pull over into a driveway. Once stopped the car would not shift into any other gear, it would revert back to park regardless of what gear you shifted it into. We tried to shift it into drive and it reverted back to park. This is the second very serious situation I've had with this car. The fuse happens over a year ago when the car just stopped running in the middle of driving. I almost got hit by a bus but luckily I was also able to think quick nd turn into a urgent care parking lot. It was a faulty alternator that was a part of a recall. I am very scared to drive this car and do not want my so. To ever drive it. It's supposed to be a second car for him to drive but its unsafe. I want Chrysler to pay me out of my loan as I never want to drive this car again and I still owe $15,000 on this car.

Had entered a side-street off bedford st in lexington MA (MA 4/225) at about 10 a. M. And was stopped, with the engine running and in drive, by a line of traffic ahead of me. While idling there, there was a loud sound and a jolt felt in the car, but the engine was still idling. . The dashboard display had "awd service" and then another word which I don't recall. When I went to put the transmission in park, I found the handle shifter already showed "p" and so did the dashboard display. When I tried to change the setting with the handle shifter, pulling toward "d" did nothing (still showed "p") and pushing forward produced a message on the dashboard display about the transmission already being in the selected position. Turning off the engine and restarting it (which proceeded normally) and retrying to change the shift position resulted in the same behavior (I. E. , no change trying to move to "d" and the message in the display about already being in the selected position). Had to have the car taken on the bed of a tow truck to my local Chrysler dealer. (as the transmission appeared to be in park, that entailed dragging the car onto the bed of the tow truck and then "bouncing" it off the bed at the dealer. Last advice I have been provided by the dealer (was today) is that they are awaiting advice back from Chrysler about a new transmission. Note: extraordinarily lucky that I was stopped on a side street in the right-most of the two lanes when this catastrophic failure occurred. Hard to imagine just how horrific it would have been if it had occurred when traveling on the interstate highway--which I had been doing just a few minutes before I had turned off to travel on bedford st.
I found a recall for Chrysler 300 (n65), but it's only for a 3. 6l model. I have a 5. 7l hemi awd and the output shaft just broke while driving in the highway. I cannot be the only one. . . There has to be others. I just had another recall fixed on this car. They just need to recall this entire model. Is there any chance 5. 7l will also be recalled on this issue?.
Transmission shifts funny. Jolts during shift and it hesitates to shift gear at pick up speed. It's a potential hazard that could cuase an accident.

My vehicle is a Chrysler 300s and has auto shift "paddles" located a few inches from the steering wheel and the audio system controls. Any slight touch to these paddles while driving causes the vehicle to immediately downshift into first gear, regardless of how fast you are travelling. According to the owner's manual this downshifting into first gear should be no problem, but I strongly disagree. I can see the rpms soar as my vehicle tries to go 70 mph in first gear. This is a dangerous add-on that few drivers want or need. I have asked whether these "paddles" can be disabled and have been unable to find a solution. These paddles are not only worthless to the average driver, but are a major hazard on the highway. Less than 30 minutes after I bought my new vehicle it shifted into first gear while on chicago expressways traveling at over 70 mph. I had no option but to pull into the emergency lane and stop. Once I turned off my vehicle and restarted it, the car was in the correct gear, but then I had the problem of merging into 70 mph traffic on a busy interstate highway. Since then, I have learned to shift into neutral whenever the "paddles" engage - a very poor solution when driving on expressways. I view these "paddles" as an poorly conceived engineering idea that needs to be corrected before this inadvertent downshifting into first gear causes accidents or deaths. I also wonder what all of this downshifting is doing to quality of my transmission. - scott bailey, chicago, IL.
